Anyway to be completely clear.. I'm not asking for commission here, I saw that someone ask and I simply explained the situation about the future of this mod.

The fact that this will require an update and that will be necessary a commission for it would depends on how much the base code will change between 1.4 and 1.5.

The mod could already work on 1.5 or may be will be necessary re-code it from scratch, we will know only when it is out.

To note that this rely on guards for me.. so first would be necessary update guard for me anyway.

Yep, there are a lot of mods that have been commissioned, the only rule Tynan put is that all mods that are commissioned must be open to the public through steam, nexus or other platform on a way that all can benefit from them.

There are people that have also patron and make mods thanks to donations and this is also the reason Rimworld stay fresh.

About updating this mod... Update it here could make or not sense depending on how much one want mechanoid patrols or escort now.

Quote, "You are free to contact the coder to make a commission..."

Uh-huh... So, authors of commissioned mods expect to be paid to update their mods? That's news to me. But then, what would even be the point of updating to 1.4 at this point?

Consider that RimWorld 1.4 was first released at the end of August of 2022. And judging by how RimWorld 1.3 was released roughly a year before that (July 2021) - and RimWorld 1.2 was released a year before that (August 2020), I think it's safe to assume a new RimWorld 1.5 release may or may not be coming in a few more months.

Even if someone paid for this to be updated to 1.4... then what? Another payment to update to 1.5... 1.6? I don't see the point if a 1.4 update if that will rapidly be made obsolete by a soon-to-be RimWorld 1.5.

Hello, this is a commissioned mod, with the advent of biotech who commissioned it is not more interested in "what the hack". At the same time update it with "guard for me" will require probably severals hours of coding and so 💰, for this reason the mod will not probably get any update.

You are free to contact the coder to make a commission if he is interested or have time, alternatively the author of "more mechanoid work mode" said that he will work on a patrol mode on a distant future, but is not nothing of imminent so please don't annoying him to rush, it will come when it will come...

Anyway a version of this mod could be made so plain ol Biotech mechanoids could do guard stuff?

Just an FYI:
Both What the Hack and Guards For Me have been updated for RimWorld 1.4.

Can we still hope that this mod gets an update for 1.4?

Mod causes the Mechanoid Tab to disappear once you get your first Mechanoid.

Wow that was fast, all it took was for you to ask. XD

thx :)

Life is suffering.

Update? :)

Nice~. Time to put some Auras in the prison in case they start getting uppity. >:D
