Opinion-based Room Sharing
IMPORTANT NOTE: THIS MOD NEEDS HARMONY TO WORK!!!
This mod has a configurations category so you can configure it however you want.
Mod Ver. 1.0.3
Have you ever wanted to make rooms that have multiple beds, but pawns always make a fuss about it because it's a Barracks space that they hate?
Say no more with this mod! As a Rimworld addict myself, I made this mod to change the way sharing bedrooms work to something closer to reality.
You'll no longer have to worry about a group of good friends sharing a bedroom and having mood debuffs just by sharing it. The social tab will also play a role on who gets to share a room and who doesn't, Traits also impact it just as much.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION:
1. The Main Concept
-> Pawns with +60 opinion with another pawn or higher will get a small mood buff if sharing a room with them. This buff tends to happen with very close people like best friends and close family. (+3)
-> Pawns with +30 opinion with another pawn won't get a mood buff if they share a room with them, but won't complain either, neutral, in simpler terms. This condition usually happens with friends/family. (+0)
-> Pawns that have an opinion with another pawn ranging from -19 to +29 will get a small mood debuff from sharing a room with them. This is the norm for anyone that is barely acquainted with each other. (-3)
-> Pawns that have an opinion of -20 or lower with another pawn get a bigger mood debuff if they share the room with them (-8)
2. Exceptions - Couples
There is however, an exception to this mod's main mechanic. Which is lovers and spouses, or just couples in general. They don't check for opinion and naturally follow Rimworld's logic of not minding to share the room.
But if a third pawn that is NOT on their relationship shares the bedroom with them, they'll get a mood debuff no matter what (decided to add this to make couples actually mind their privacy). (-8)
The same pawn that stays in the room as the third-party won't get any mood debuffs just by sharing the room, and will instead follow the traditional logic for this mod.
3. Additional Content - Traits
Some vanilla Rimworld traits can and WILL make the mod's mechanic have more complexity. Some will help, others won't, and that's why I think this extra mechanic wraps this mod into a decent thing.
Traits that do affect bedroom sharing:
- Ascetic
- Recluse
- Kind
- Greedy
- Psychopath
Ascetic:
The pawn with this trait won't mind sharing a room with people as much, but they'll still dislike it if they are put to share a room with somebody they dislike.
Recluse:
Naturally opposes sharing their bedroom with people to a mild extent, will be slightly displeased if sharing a room with anyone.
Kind:
Pawns with this trait will tend to accept sharing their bedroom more than the others, won't mind as much as they would, even with disliked people. In simple terms, mood debuffs will be way lower when sharing their bedroom.
Greedy/Psychopath:
Both traits naturally hate sharing their bedroom with anyone, and will always have the highest mood debuff from sharing it with another person, doesn't matter who they are.
4. Roadmap
- Fix Impressiveness mechanic workaround
- Add config UI
- Finish bug-fixes
5. Compatibility
AFAIK, the mod shouldn't interfere with most others. But it should be noted that it alters Impressiveness of rooms, adds some mood buffs/debuffs, and also uses the social tab as it's main part.
This mod was tested on a 140+ mods gameplay and came out fine, so it's probably compatible with almost anything.
6. Other Useful Information
- Babies are NOT considered "room sharers" in the mod, therefore a couple with a newborn will not have a "loss of privacy" type of mood debuff. But children WILL count as "room sharers", therefore being able to cause "loss of privacy".
- The Impressiveness mechanic for Rimworld had to be tampered with for this mod to work. I will plan on changing that soon, but as far as this goes, expect it to be down/unreliable. The Impressiveness mechanic was altered again, this time it should be more stable, but a good note to have is that it works best when pawns don't share a bedroom.
- This mod is still an open BETA that I'm doing to test how it goes, there's more things I might wanna add and more bugs I will fix. This is a project done by one dude, so don't expect it to update often.
7. Usage And Credits
Honestly, you have my permission to remaster, remake, overhaul, expand, or just in general use this mod for your own creations in whatever way you please. HOWEVER, you must credit this mod if your creation goes to the Workshop in order to not plagiarize my work.
That's all, hope you enjoy the mod!
