Pen Audit

Description
Pen Audit is a quality-of-life mod for diagnosing animal pens quickly and clearly.
Vanilla will tell you when a pen is invalid, but it does not do much to show [i]why[/i]. This mod adds a simple audit tool directly to the pen marker so you can check the enclosure, spot leaks, confirm outside access, and get a quick read on shelter and visible feed conditions.
The goal is not to replace vanilla pen mechanics or automate the whole system. It is meant to be a practical troubleshooting tool that is easy to use, easy to understand, and safe to add to an ongoing save.
[u]If people want more checks, better reporting, or additional safe auto-fix options, I will keep expanding it based on requests.[/u]
Features
[list]
[*] Adds an [b]Audit pen[/b] button to pen markers
[*] Checks whether the pen is properly enclosed

[*] Shows rough visible forage and stored feed inside the pen
[*] Draws a simple overlay while the marker stays selected
[*] Optional [b]Fix issue[/b] button for safe one-tile breach blueprint placement
[*] Works mid-save
[*] Built to stay simple, practical, and stable
[/list]
Overlay Colors
[list]
[*] [b]Red[/b] = leak route from the pen to the outside
[*] [b]Yellow[/b] = nearby cells worth checking around the breach
[*] [b]Green[/b] = gates or doors that connect the pen to the outside
[/list]
How to Use
[list]
[*] Build a pen marker as usual
[*] Select the pen marker
[*] Click [b]Audit pen[/b]
[*] Read the report and follow the overlay if a leak is found
[*] If your version includes it, use [b]Fix issue[/b] to place a matching blueprint for a simple one-tile breach
[/list]
What It Helps With
[list]
[*] Pens that look closed but are still invalid
[*] Missing or misplaced fence segments
[*] No usable outside gate or door for roping animals in
[*] Pens with little shelter
[*] Pens with poor visible grazing or no stored feed inside
[/list]
Notes
[list]
[*] This is a diagnostic tool, not a pen overhaul
[*] It only runs once you press the audit button, this mod does not impact performance.
[*] The feed and forage readout is meant as a practical estimate, not a full nutrition simulation
[*] The auto-fix feature only attempts safe, limited fixes and will refuse messy cases instead of guessing
