Carry Different Medicine Types

Description
A simple mod that allows your colonists to carry different types of medicines in their inventories.

This feature was requested by users of another mod of mine: Choose Your Medicine.
Since it is not related to a doctors selection of medicine when tending/operating, I decided to make it its own mod.

  • Compatibility:
    Works for mod added medicines, as long as the corresponding thingDef has a statBase 'MedicalPotency'.
    Not compatible with mods that change the gui element 'carry' in the assign tab.


  • Performance:
    • Obviously the more things a colonist should carry, the higher the impact on performance.
      I did not measure it, but I assume it is fine for a few colonist and a few different things.

    • The change to the assign tab gui has a surprisingly positive effect.
      A test with about 50 pawns showed the calculation for vanilla took about 0.3ms on average, while with the mod about 0.12ms.

  • Limitations:
    The mod uses the vanilla system to make colonists put the medicines in their inventories, so be aware of the following:
    • Colonists will not clear their inventories. (If they have 10 herbals in their inventory and you set it to 5, they will not drop the surplus)
    • Colonists will not respect their 'mass carried limit' when picking up medicine.


  • Adding/Removing from a save:
    Should be fine. There will be errors when removing from a save once, but they can be ignored. Make a backup anyway!


  • Else:
    I am not 100% happy that you have to open another gui to set the medicines to carry. If you can think of a better solution, feel free to comment it!

    Source of the mod is included.

You were extremely quick to reply, thanks for the consideration at the very least :cozybethesda:

Noted.
Not sure if/when I am able to come around though.

Pardon the late reply.
I might take a look into this, but it might be too complicated to add.

Would love to be able to drag the settings over to other pawns and possibly a quick save / load settings. Other then that this is awesome.

I'd love to see a variation of this where instead of choosing different medicines they will just grab the next best medicine. Meaning: if I set them to glitter, and my colony has 0 glitter, they will replace it with normal medicine.

v1.0.3 (RW1.5):
- Should now work correctly with DubsMintMenus, as well as other mods that add new inventoryStockGroupDefs

Dubs Mint Menus.

I have a bit of a problem...for me instead of the 3 types of medicine as options, it shows simple meals, beer and just herbal for medicine as carry options.

I'm sure it's a mod conflict, but I have no idea which one could cause that. Anyone have any advice?

Nevermind, I read further down the comments and I bet this is the issue related to Dub's Mint Menus which is mentioned.
