What this mod is:
Have you ever rerolled and rerolled and rerolled your colonists again trying to get the perfect combination of construction and crafting and research...only to drop and then find out you forgot to get a good cook?

This mod will allow you to set which skills and what the minimum you want at least one of your colonists to have...and if you try to start without any colonists that meet that criteria it will alert you and not let you drop.

Be sure to click the Configure Verify Start button to set up the skills you wish to verify and their minimum level from the select colonist screen! Don't worry, it saves the settings between games so you don't have to make changes again unless you want a different skill set to be verified.

Added in the latest release is a auto roll button. Clicking that button will randomize all 3 colonists until you have three that meet your criteria.

Reuse Policy:
You can use it in a pack and/or tinker with the source with my blessings.

Can this mod be used with old saves?

Uh, I guess...but the point of it is to check colonists BEFORE you drop, so it would be pretty useless without starting a new colony.

Are there any compatability issues?

This base mod is not compatible with edb's Prepare Carefully mod. This is a compatibility version if you wish to use this mod and edb's Prepare Carefully mod at the same time located here.

Also any other mods that use this method of changing the colonist start screen will have this same problem.
