[Experimental] 1trickPwnyta's Defaults
This is the experimental edition of [url=https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3285178686]1trickPwnyta's Defaults[/url]. For a more stable experience, use that mod. To enjoy earlier updates and newer features, use this mod.
Description
Tired of having to go through the same ritual every time you start a new colony of configuring your colonists' schedules, setting your quest reward preferences, turning down the medicine setting so you don't waste your good medicine on bruises, and more?
This mod allows you to customize various default settings to use during gameplay, such as the default schedules your colonists will assume. See below for a full list of settings.
This mod's config file (your settings for this mod) gets pretty big and complex and it would kinda suck if something happened and you had to reconfigure everything from scratch. So now you can back up this mod's settings through the mod settings window (in General settings). Automatic periodic backups are enabled by default.
Compatibility
Supports all DLC and can be safely added mid-playthrough, however many settings will only apply to new colonies.
