Description


Do your pawns always have the right tool for the job? Then why the hell don't they use them already?

With this mod, pawns carrying a tool relevant to their current job will equip them when starting the job. Does NOT activate when drafted or hunting.

Update:
This mod now also adds the ability to command colonists to pick up specific items to carry around in their inventory even when not part of a caravan.

Update again:
Pawns will now switch back to their previously equipped weapon when finished using a tool for a job

Useful mods


Easier manual switching of tools/weapons:
Pocket Sand

Mods with tools:
Vanilla Weapons Expanded
Primitive Tools
Toolmetrics Redux (Continued)
Medieval Madness: Tools of the Trade
Gimmicks (Continued)

tell me if you know some others and I will add them!

Is this functionality included in Simple Sidearms mod?

1.4...?

@bole, last time I checked, that function is not working for simple sidearms. I brought it to the authors attention a little while ago, although I havent played for a bit, so it may have been patched now.

@Hydrolic yeah in the mod settings there should be a checkmark toggle for Simple Sidearms to automatically equip tools

@AlexJones1776 Wait it does? Is it an option I have to enable?
AlexJones1776 28 Nov, 2022 @ 6:45am 
@Hydrolic use the "Simple Sidearms" mod, it auto uses tools like this mod did.

Every day I go to check, and I'm sad that it hasn't been updated yet nor anyone else is picking up to update the mod.
