Recruit Slaves

Description
This mod lets you recruit slaves in a balanced way without having to imprison them first.

How to use: choose "Recruit" interaction option in the Slave tab for the slave you want to recruit. Then a colonist assigned to warden jobs will start approaching the slave and trying to recruit them.

The chance of success depends on many factors including the slave's mood, ideoligion, relations with the recruiter and the other colonists, the storyteller's intent and the recruiter's negotiation ability. I recommend to check Recruitment Difficulty stat for the slave before you start recruiting them.

Recruitment can only be attempted a day after the last such attempt or suppression, so you can't suppress the slave and invite them to join you voluntarily at the same time.

When the slave's suppression falls too low (below 70% by default, adjustable in the settings), the pawns will first suppress the slave and only then attempt to recruit them.

Also adds a new record, "Time as a colony slave", which the vanilla game inexplicably lacks.

Ideology DLC is required (obviously). Should be compatible with most mods.

The mod can be installed in an active save. Removing it will probably cause a one-time error if any slaves are currently marked for recruitment, but shouldn't break your game.

Ah, thank you!

@Onyx You don't *need* to suppress the slave in order to recruit them. The recruitment chance doesn't depend on it. But you also don't want your slave to escape while you're trying to convince them to join the colony. Hence the mod's behaviour (which can be tuned or disabled in the settings) to ensure that there is at least 70% level of suppression.

The supression needed to recruit them just doesn't make sense. Why would you need to make a slave fear for their life and not be comfortable just so you can ask them to join you?
Other than that, it makes it so that you still have to add a bunch of supression stuff if you actually want a slave to keep at above 70% for long enough so that you try and recruit them

Can you provide a translation key of the recruit success letter?

@KimchiMan, that's an unwavering pawn

@CD There is, when you try recruit it says: Cannot recruit this pawn

There should be some kind of alert telling you that you can't recruit someone who is unwavering, at the moment there is no way to tell they can't be recruited so if you lost track of who is unwavering at some point, that interaction option is pointless.
