Description
Fix Child Only Bldg
v1.3 Sept 5th, 2021

Tito and Picard Patch Only

This mod is a fix to the missing code that is required to make Child Only Buildings, such as the Nuseries, omit any other age group.
It will stop youths, adults and seniors from occupying these places.

New Code Routine - Now also checks all colonists once per save game to make sure their traits for age are not flawed or missing.
Side affect - this should fix some of the filter bugs for save games before the hotfix.

You can shut this mod off in the native Mod Options menu section anytime dynamically and original routines will take over.

Highly Recommended Additional Fix
It is highly recommended that you team this mod up with the Fix Emigration Issues Mod.
That fix will solve all the patch issues with colonists emigrating to other domes with filters.
To have children move around this additional mod is needed.
Here ->Fix Emigration Issues


Important
If you are adding this to an already established colony, it will take from 1 to 3 sols for all the colonists to cycle through or get booted.
Colonists in a save game with the flaw of missing age traits may come and occupy a slot in the building but on their next update will vacate the slot.
Larger colonies may take longer to clear up.
Average for a 100 adult colony is about 3 sols before it stabilizes and no further adults use the Child Only Buildings.

Missing traits flaw was fixed by the developers in the Tito Hotfix on March 17th, 2021, but that only affects new colonists. So some of your older adult colonists from saves created before the hotfix will still be a bit buggy.
- Fixed with new routine see above.

When the developers fix this in their code, you can turn this mod off in Mod Options.

Report any issues on the mods' bug report page.

Thanks for doing all these mods. I have a number of yours and love them. Curious about this one. I have a dome set to kids and youths only, because I have the university in the kids dome. That way when kids graduate to youths they can attend the university. I have nurseries and one housing complex in that dome (also set to martian born/no founders) but I constantly find middle aged, adults going in and attending the university while living in the housing complex. Will this mod stop that?

Can can be developed in NASA Education mod to do so, but there is already a mechanism built into domes if you just move the university to a separate dome. Why would you want to restrict age?

Is there any way to use something like this with universities and only accepting youths?

Not fixed. But they know about it. I would have said you dont need this in the mod description otherwise.

Have they fixed this yet? Is it safe to uninstall this mod? By the way, I greatly appreciate you making these!

ah I understood my mistake, I did not understand that nurseries were considered dwellings. But that doesn't explain why adults still went to this dome reserved for children. Yet there are still 5 places in the main dome. the children's dome now contains only nurseries I think it will solve the problem. :)

Oh yes I forgot to say that it is perhaps by what I arrive at the limit of populations in the dome. I am building another dome of dwelling, I will see if the settlers respect the instructions of the domes. with a little more room.

hello !
I have the two patch on a fresh save (new update + dlc), I have impression that the blockage of births in the dome, does not work. I still have births. One of the domes is reserved for children, and I have adults who will still stay in this dome. I am forced to reassign adults and children manually from time to time. They are Martians not from earth, I have 68 settlers so it's still okay to manage. I don't really understand the option (green icon) in the domes and colons menu and the effect, The explanation given in the update is a succinct I have trouble translating into French.
