Platonic Relationships

Description




I just feel some pawns work better as friends. Sometimes I'm holding out for someone with the right skillset for optimal cohabitation. Or maybe we're working on a specific gene breeding project, who knows? Either way, we all have our reasons to want to exclude certain pawns from romancing each other. With this mod, you can do that.

This mod adds platonic relationships to the game. That means that, between pawns with any of these relationships active, the romantic interest is zero. It's fairly similar to my other mod, Adoptive Relationships, just with different relationship names.

These relationships do not happen naturally, you will have to add them manually at the beginning of the game using Prepare Carefully or mid-game using Character Editor.

Thank you for the nice words!

@Accord Ayre
Thank you for pointing that out, the good old "ah this is case sensitive oops" update will be pushed momentarily.

Some of the new ThoughtDefs aren't named what the RelationDefs expect. The god child, god parent, and sibling in arms defs, specifically.

Thank you so much for adding Chosen Family and also thanks for the update! I really like the new relationships you've added in the most recent update. :p2cube:

I absolutely love my own godmother and I can't believe I hadn't thought about including this myself. Consider it added in a next update!

Also, you absolutely CAN make mods yourself. Reach out in the RimWorld Discord, the people are happy to help!
