Arresting your colonists during mental breaks only to immediately release them for the chance at a different mental break has become a bit more micro since the 1.3 update.
Introducing the Arrest and release command, which allows you to arrest a colonist and immediately release them in just one click.
- You don't need to have a prison to use this command, just a room that *could* be a prison if you were to place a sleeping spot inside.
- The arrestee also doesn't drop their weapon or their inventory so you don't have to micro-manage them to pick everything back up.
This mod tries to stay true to the vanilla mechanics. You shouldn't be able to do anything you couldn't do before; you just don't have to click as much. As such:
- If the arresting pawn drops the arrestee before the arrest and release is complete, the arrestee will become a prisoner and drop their inventory as usual.
- After the command completes, the arrestee will still get the Was imprisoned mood debuff.
- The arrestee will lose any ideology roles they hold.
