Thanks, now the mod makes sense

@Everyone That's correct. But Free isn't the default. Most ideologies generate with some form of Spouse Only. This mod makes Free the default.

Pawns absolutely DO engage in sex before marriage when the Physical Love is set to Free. Without this mod.

It's not suspicious at all, it just modifies a feature from ideology. If you don't have the DLC then this mod can't do anything.

and why dlc like its not free

@Tom Jackal
I remember using Dev Mode to trigger a marriage (an option called "Set relationship"). For another, there's the mod "Romance on the Rim" which adds 4 precepts to allow the player to take more control over romance in your colony. These 4 are Cheating, Romance attempt, Breakup, and Marriage proposal. I also seem to recall that it allows manually starting a marriage for couples in the marriage spot.

BTW: There are several other mods that affect marriage or do stuff in reaction. RimStory will add wedding anniversaries. Message 2 Letter issues a letter make sure the player won't miss a marriage. [SIC] Co-Spousal Relations adds an implied relationship in a poly marriage to the same person, removing the mood penalty for sharing a bed. More Faction Interaction, among other things, can cement relations by inter-faction marriages, having a diplomatic marriage event. Less Rebuff nerfs mood debuffs on failed romance. Yayo's Animation adds animation for marriage ceremonies.

does anyone know of a mod that lets you trigger a marriage proposal like you can trigger romance attempts with the dlc?

@ReneeEclipse The in-game description of this mods says "This mod has been merged into my bigger mod, 1trickPwnyta's Ideology Patch. If you have that mod, you no longer need this one."
Neither of their Steam descriptions mention this, and the description of the other mod doesn't explicitly say that it includes this feature, but if you are having trouble, try this first.

Great mod!

This mod seems to be running into conflicts with another mod, it's throwing errors when in a large modlist but not on its own. As my modlist is approaching 400 mods at the moment and I'm troubleshooting some other conflicts, I haven't identified which ideology-related mod or mods is fighting with this one. If you happen to feel like looking into it, here's a log file containing the errors: https://gist.github.com/c5bc45dcaf24bee57c46c94d251bbf95

Geez, next they'll be holding hands in public.

No kiss before marriage

SafeJob allows free love. I really enjoy the fact that they don't do it only at the bed and only at night. Also, pawns not in a relationship may also go for it if they feel like it. You can always remove any content you don't like of the SafeJob mod in the options. I cannot imagine playing Rimworld without the SafeJob mod for the sake of realism.

@Alundra It makes it the default, just as it was before ideology. You're right though, the game calls it free love but without other mods I don't believe they do it with anyone other than who they share a bed with and only if they are in a relationship.

Sorry I should have been clearer...I have the precept but it seems they only do it if I assign them to the beds....which means they don't really freely do it unless they are already in a bed with someone else, which makes it less "free love" and more "assigned love" in my opinion lol. So all this does is make it so that more religions are cool with premarital sex or does it make that the default?

@Alundra Mainly Free Love makes it so they will share a bed *before* marriage. Polyamory is the Free and Approved precept, which this mod does not increase the chance of.

@Alundra No, I've had pawns from different ideologies decide to become lovers, but refuse to sleep together, because both the random ideologies they had only wanted lovin' with their SPOUSE. So they wouldn't share a bed because it HAS to lead to lovin', I guess. So this mod has it happen less often. Personally, I'd prefer one that has it so they can share a bed, but the chance for lovin' goes WAY down if it doesn't fit the ideology.

Not sure I fully understand what this mod does....are you saying monogamy is the default and this changes it free love? So if you have polyamory between 3 people they won't get upset they're sharing a bed and will get the buffs and stuff? Do they still need to be assigned the same bed to free love?

I don‘t wanna this mod,I just want my communist colony

Boom, atheist win

that's it what my godless communist colony needs

There should really be an extra intermediate option or simply allow marriage (mild) to include lovers.

But what if its working as intended as wholesome propaganda? (thinking emoji)
