A good idea could be, Programmer: +3 Electrical +1 Nimble +Fast Reader +Agoraphobic -4 cost. I don't know how your balancing the points but I think this could be a good start.

@Gruz thank you, that's high praise. I've got a solid amount of things planned for the mod at the moment, but if I can find the time and a way to make it uniquely useful and accurate I'll definitely consider its addition.

and i also want to say that this is probably one of my favorite mods of all time, it gives nice vanilla plus features that pretty much no other occupation mod has, while keeping the game balanced and fun

Yo i think i have a pretty great idea for an occupation. Biologist would be awesome, it would give smth like levels for first aid, foraging, butchering, maybe fishing or agriculture and the perk that makes you gain expierience points faster, pretty sure its called quick learner or smth

@mylesstylesM5 no, I wanted to keep the priest pretty grounded. Like August said, you can check the workshop page screenshots to see the effects of all the professions

@mylesstylesM5 the priest has the Tranquility perk meaning the profession is not susceptible to panic, its in the screenshots on the mod itself, check them out.

What can the priest do? I haven't looked at it yet and was just wondering. Will the priest be able to wield a crucifix and repel zombies or something? Does he interact with the infection mechanic at all?

@Rooford did you figure out what mod it was?

@Rooford Uh, yeah, not this mod. We don't touch either of those things at all. I went and tested it anyway, no issues with them.

*I have four candidates for what mod was doing this, and Im commenting on each of them- This mod may cause an error to occur where your minimap doesnt appear, and your dash board in the car is gone*

fixed that error. again, if you still have issues, let me know.

@thshpebl i was able to get a tester, and it runs fine. there was one minor issue with the mailman profession i’ll get polished out soon, but nothing that would make the whole mod not “work in multiplayer.” if you have issues besides that, tell me about them, in detail.

@thshpebl could you go into detail? To my knowledge it should work in multiplayer. If you're having issues I'm more than happy to fix them but I need to what's happening, since I don't have any testers to help debug multiplayer.

this mod doesnt work in multiplayer :( Why?

@Rafik1337 Of course, thank you for pointing out the errors. Always happy to improve the mod.

@ostructed Thanks a lot for your work, everything looks great now

I'm sorry, I'm new to server management and I explained the issue poorly.
It wasn't such a serious error — I was just worried that something might break, and I didn't want to remove the mod from the server.
Thank you for the information, I'll go ahead and update it now, and hopefully, the errors will no longer appear.
I haven't noticed any problems affecting functionality.

@Rafik I found and fixed a couple errors in the B41 version, mostly to do with character creation stage, though I'm concerned it might not be your issues. None of them made it unplayable or game-breaking, it was mostly just weird issues. If you're still experiencing problems, let me know, ideally in a bit more detail of your issues.

Specifically, are the errors happening during gameplay or character creation? Is there an event that makes them happen, or are they constant?

@Rafik if you could go into any further detail about the issue it would be appreciated, but I will definitely look into fixing it.

I have this mod on my server, and because of it, I'm getting errors and it's causing a lot of issues.
It's an important mod, and if I remove it, it would completely mess up the server.
Please, I kindly ask for a fix as soon as possible. Thank you very much! :)

There is an error in the mod.
After today's update (April 27, 2025), the mod is broken.
Please, could the owner fix it? Thank you.

@Obstructed, that is actually a good one. Big brain on you :)
True believers welcome death, because it brings them closer to God (as in 'not suicidal offcourse'). Yeah, I like it.

@Redacted I implemented some changes similar to what you described. For the trait, I decided to go with not becoming panicked, as their faith in their deity would make them believe in their survival.

@Obstructed if you were to make them clerics, maces are generally used in RPG-games. Paladins use large blades. But actual priest priest should be pacifists archaicly. Maybe +1 Carpentry, +1 First Aid, and some unique endurance buff (as in they endure through suffering). That would be a nice touch. Maybe some endurance multiplier if that's available, to counteract the pacifist trait (which weakens their offense). It would make somewhat of a resemblence of the holy trinity of 'creator/carpenter/father/Joseph + healer/miracleworker//saviour/son/Jesus + judge/enduring_wisdom/ethics/Logos/Holy_spirit' ^^

@Redacted priest has shortblade because of cerimonial daggers or something, I mostly just couldn't think of anything fitting. Carpentry is a good idea though, I'll definitely consider replacing it.

Found it! 'Did I have a car?' (https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3396100976&searchtext=)

P.S. Why does the Priest have shortblade skill?? If it's an Aztec priest, maybe not put a bible icon :P (Christian Priest rather should have Carpentry, as a nod to Joseph).

@Obstructed, I was looking for the mod for you and decided to do a fresh install of my modlist. If I run into it I'll let you know. If not, you have confirmation the current accesible mods don't contain a solution to spawn keys (I think it was a keyspawn for a nearby car, not a car spawn).

@Redacted I believe you are referring to “Did I Have a Car?”, since i cannot find any other mod similar to what you are describing. That mod does not spawn cars, it only gives you a key for any car which you happen to spawn near. It would require a significantly more advanced system to be able to spawn a profession-specific vehicle for every possible spawn in the game and would almost certainly conflict with any mod adding spawns. There’s also a high chance that such a system would cause immersion-breaking irregularities when multiplayer is reintroduced, or even if you were to simply play many lives on the same save file.

@Obstructed, if you don't do sexual (not sure if exotic dancers would like to be considered sexworkers), how about 'dragtime story reader' as a profession? That's not sexual, that was completely normal for libraries and elementary schools last 4 years :x

@Obstructed, also... if I'm not mistaken there is already a profession mod with inherent carkeys + car spawns. Not sure what it was called, but pretty sure I saw it quite recently (B42). If you'd try your hand at that you might want to try finding it. I think it was called something like 'spawn with carkeys' or something, and then you'd have to pick a trait to get it. Easy as jump to a profession.

@Obstructed, being the Towndrunk is a full-time job. But you could call it 'social securities receiver' if you need more general descriptions. The point being; 'People like to 'roleplay as' a specific background'. I think those professions would actually be extremely popular. But you do you offcourse. Just had some fun with it.

@Karmesh Bug is now fixed.

You can get infinite free trait points if you keep clicking on the built-in traits. For example, if you pick priest you can keep clicking on "reluctant fighter" and it gives you free points every time you click.

@Redacted I like a few of these, but some them have some issues I'd like to address so that future suggestors have more of an idea of what I will/won't do.

Exotic Dancer: I'd like to stay away from sexual or otherwise explicit content in my mod.
Towndrunk: Not a bad idea, but generally i'm going to stick to things that would be someone's job (hunting guide, mailmain, etc.), or what they do instead of a job (ascetic, vagrant, etc.).
Housewife: Professions have to be gender-independent since character creation happens after professions. I could maybe do something like servant/butler or whatever, if I can think of a way to make it unique, but that's somewhat of a different concept anyway.
Driving Occupations: It's possible, but would be quite difficult to make work consistently given the variability of spawns and where cars are etc. Also, there's not skills to give them without some external modifying mod adding driving skills, and I'd prefer my mod not to require any others.

How about;
- Exotic Dancer (Lightf + elegant+ Ath)(spawn w/ sigarets and purse)
- Housewife (Tailoring + Cooking)(spawn w/ broom, apron, rub.glvs)
- Bouncer (Brawler + prodigy + Str)(spawn w/ civian bpv)
- Towndrunk (Alcoholic + Brawler, low point cost)(spawn w/ carkeys? ^^)
- Trucker (night owl, low sleep)(spawn w/ truck keys?)
- Delivery Driver (Organized,)(spawn w/ Van keys?)
- Schoolboy/-girl (Fast learner, high Ath/str penalties, boy=baseball/crafting, girl=cooking/tailor)(spawn w/ schoolbag, pens etc)
- Sports (all kinds w/ various related traits)(spawn w/ rugby harnass catcher vest, bat, balls, duffelbag etc)

Just some typical everyday common interest/sense professions.

@Kustarnik3 go ahead, my russian isn't good enough to make a proper translation anyway. just make sure you credit me somewhere, and we're all good.

anyway, you can appeal at any time and I will delete my translation

Hello author, would you mind if I create a patch that translates the mod into Russian?

@impossible added some thumbnails explaining effects of each

Please add profession info to the mod page in some way! be it in the description or as a thumbnail. I didn't subscribe to this purely because there was zero info on what the occupations do, and i'm sure a lot of other people did the same

Finally, i perfect mod for my priest playthrough, thank you

btw i think a car racer would be pretty cool too, maybe requiring the driving skill mod

@Macca Would be a good addition. I’ve got quite a lot right now, but I’ll certainly keep it on the table.
@ShephardsLaw I’ve considered adding something like that, yes. It might be added as a sandbox option at some point, but it’s not high on the priority list at the moment.

Any way you could add a feature or an option to let soldiers spawn with an M16, some magazines, and a generous amount of ammo?

would love a paramedic/EMT one

@Goatroach I’m not exactly sure what you mean. It should work alongside Week One, but I haven’t done anything to specifically make them compatible.

bruh its not yt shorts comment section

@romperstomper, That's so obvious I'm ashamed I didn't think of it.
KY has a very large coal mining industry, after all.

@Obstructed, Does this have any compatibility with the Week One mod?
Would be interesting to be a priest, go into a church, and be paid for saying/typing, "THE END TIMES ARE UPON US!!!" "REPENT WHILE YOU CAN!!!"

I deleted my comment I don't wanna be remembered for starting this
