Ever wondered what to do with those piles of dead pirates? Your doctors are still training by installing ped legs on prisoners? Then you need a dissection table in your game!
Features
- Performing dissections allows your doctors to train their medicine skill on humanlike corpses
- A small research unlocks the dissection table and allows you to add bills on them (already unlocked in classic scenarios)
- Colonists assigned to the new "Study Medicine" work type will perform dissection bills at a dissection table to train their skill
- Dissecting a single body takes 1.5 ingame hours and grants 3000xp (adjustable in settings)
- Colonists will not perform dissections if doing so would exceed the daily learn threshold too much
- Dissection destroys random body parts and organs from the corpse
- Colonists may accidentally destroy corpses in the dissection process (lower chance with higher medicine skill)
- A corpse can only be dissected once (A "Allow dissected" and "Allow not dissected" filter can help you to set up your storages and butcher bills efficiently)
- Dissections adds thoughts to the colonist performing them (mood buffs/debuffs depending on their passion for medicine)
- Custom tales - You might discover an artwork illustrating a dissection
Compatibility
There are no known incompatibilities with other mods. Please let me know if you encounter any issues.
Harvest Organs Post Mortem
The mod contains a patch for Harvest Organs Post Mortem (HOPM). If HOPM is installed, you can add dissection bills on autopsy tables. The required research changes to Basic Autopsy. The dissection table is still available but can only be used for dissections, not for organ harvesting.
Alien races
The mod currently only allows dissection on humanlike races. Mods based on "Humanoid Alien Races 2.0" by erdelf are supported. Add an issue if you would like to dissect non-humanlike races. Please include the name of the mod adding that race.
Save game compatibility
The mod can be added to existing saves but you will need to fix your work priorities afterwards (because it adds a new work type). It is not safe to remove the mod from an existing save after doing the first dissection.
Multiplayer support
This mod does not support multiplayer and will likely cause desyncs.

Medical Training
[url=https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1214615921]Medical Training[/url] is a different mod than this one. It has the same core idea with a more minimalistic implemtation. Please take a look, if you're looking for a simpler mod to train your doctors.
Note: I didn't know about Medical Trainign when I first developed this mod but both have their upsides in my opinion.
