Life Lessons: Trade Tip
Summary
This mod provides visual indicators and detailed tooltips in the trade window to help players identify which proficiency-related items (like textbooks) are already owned or mastered by their colonists. It ensures a smarter trading experience by preventing redundant purchases of knowledge materials.
Features
- Smart Ownership Icons: When trading, specific icons will appear next to items from the Life Lessons series. A green checkmark indicates full ownership (either in inventory or fully mastered), while a specialized "need" mark highlights items containing unlearned knowledge.
- Detailed Knowledge Tooltips: Hovering over the indicator icons reveals a high-contrast list of all proficiencies provided by the item. Each entry clearly states whether it is [Mastered] or [Not Mastered].
- Colonist Mastery List: The tooltip identifies up to three colonists who have already mastered each specific proficiency, helping you keep track of your team's expertise.
- Inventory Detection: The system scans all maps, caravans, and even colonist inventories to detect if you already possess the item, marking it with a bright green status if found.


Compatibility
- Requires Life Lessons as a base mod.
- Fully compatible with Show Known Techprints (icons will align side-by-side).
- Compatible with TradeHelper and major UI overhaul mods.
- Supports RimWorld version 1.6.
