Mod «Sleepy's More Permits» for Rimworld (v1.3 - 1.4)

A simple mod that adds new highly balanced permits to the game to be used by your royals.

I love to add content to this game that I feel is missing or that I'd like expanded. I figure that if I enjoy what I've added, others may too so I to post my mods to the workshop. Balance is critical to me as I am a vanilla player and I'll try to ensure nothing is unbalanced but ultimately I have a goal in mind for the content I am adding so what I consider balanced may not always be what you'd consider balanced. Hopefully you enjoy the mod none the less.


What Does This Mod Add?
- Adds two new types of permits
- Adds 16 new permits
- Adds additional permits if supported mods are detected (see 'Compatibility' for more details)
- Rearranges permits added by other mods in the Permits Tab to ensure no overlapping and compatibility with supported mods (please report any problems here and I'll write a patch).

New Permits Types
- Call Soldier Support
Allows you to call empire soldiers to help fight for or defend your colony for a few days. You can control them just as if they were your own colonists but the support will not do most non-combat work. You are expected to keep them safe and if they die in battle you'll receive a small goodwill penalty (between -3 to -5 per death depending on the soldier class (it'll vary when moving towards natural goodwill), this balances these permits from the standard military aid which allows them to die consequence free). Soldier support will arrive via a shuttle, the shuttle system in game generally lands at landing pads (using the landing beacons), near your structures if you have a base built or randomly on the map if no structures/home area is detected. Keep this in mind when using this permit (it isn't as on point as the military aid, again for balancing).

- Call Medical Support
Allows you to call empire civilians and soldiers to help you deal with medical emergencies, treatment and surgeries your colony may need over a few days. They will arrive with a reasonable supply of medicine that they will use directly from their inventory when treating. You can control them just as if they were your own colonists but the support will not do most non-combat/medical work. You are expected to keep them safe and if they die in battle you'll receive a significant goodwill penalty (between -3 (soldier) to -12 (civilian) per death depending on the class (it'll vary when moving towards natural goodwill). Medical support will arrive via a shuttle.

New Permits
Enduring or Large variants require the original team as a prerequisite (e.g. call large trooper team requires call trooper team)

Roadmap:
- Feature complete (I'm actually quite happy with all that is added and can't really see what else I could add, or anything else that wouldn't simply be repeated stuff, recommendations always welcome though).
- Maintain a Rimworld with no conflicting permit mods (this mod will take this on and ensure compatibility)


On Going Games:
- Safe to add to an ongoing game
- May cause issues if removed from an existing save (I'd recommend you return all permits and ensure no soldiers from these permits are on the map before removing the mod, you should get a one time red error saying the game couldn't find the old permits but that should be it). It is a good practice not to remove mods from an ongoing game.

Compatibility
- This mod or any of my mods will never touch base game content. So it should be compatible with any mods that change or add to royalty, titles or permits.
- Compatible with any other permit mods (Please report any issues with overlapping permits if you spot them and I will write a patch for it).

Integrated Compatibility:
I have made patches that cleans up the permit tab if you are using any combination of these mods. This prevents overlapping permits which prevents you selecting one.
- [Royalty] Unlock Working Emperor (Continued)
- Unlock Emperor (Continued)
- I Demand Permits
- Royal Arsenal - Extra Permits
- Ultratech: Altered Carbon Remastered

Compatibility with Additional Content
I have made patches that adds additional content inline with the scope of this mod if you are using the following mods.
- [Royalty] Unlock Working Emperor (Continued) or Unlock Emperor (Continued)
Adds an additional two new permits (Call Stellic Melee Team & Call Stellic Ranged Team).


Conflicts
Likely to conflict somewhat with other mods that add permits in the permits tab. The only real conflict is that the permit tab may become messy. I have ensured that the code for my mod will not override or conflict with any other mods.
I am adding patches to ensure my mod cleans the permit tab up if it detects these mods but I am not likely to notice new permit mods or changes to existing ones. Let me know below if you find any conflicts with these or any mods.


Known Issues
Cataphracts can sometimes spawn with single use weapons like a triple rocket or doomsday. Using this means they then can only punch enemies for the remaining time they have left if they use the weapon, which isn't ideal (the weapon is nice though!). A fix would mean they cant spawn with that weapon anymore though, which might be worse off. I'll toss this up.

FAQ
Does it work for versions below 1.3?
I have no idea sorry as I don't use those versions, let me know if you have any issues and I'll try and fix those for you if you are running an older version of Rimworld. If it seems to work just fine, let me know too and I'll add the version tag.
