Hope it helps anyone!

Any alternatives to this mod since it isnt being updated?

According to the description, near the top, it says,
quote, "(Thanks to @Mlie for the 1.3 update!)"

If that's the case, perhaps someone should bug Mlie for 1.4?

1.4 please

1.4 please, Replace Stuff don't have UI for upgrading

@Aмαуcнαη ♥ thank you

@Abstract-Player Use Replace Stuff for that

Hello. Is it possible to upgrade walls / doors / storages for example from wood to stone or to metal ?

Yes, 一维_0902 is right. Having this installed will make certain options disappear from other object interactions. It's unfortunate because I found this mod extremely handy when needing to upgrade tools, weapons, clothes, buildings, etc. Wish it had a 1.4 version but maybe someone like Mlie will Continue this one day.

这个mod目前还没有出1.4，而且要是强行把1.3的版本加到1.4会导致有些家具的ui消失。（所以这个mod什么时候更1.4啊）

1.4?

This mod seems to be incompatible with Androids. Putting a chemfuel belt on a droid will make the pawn control buttons (draft and such) disappear.

Addendum: Seems that there are other items with this same issue. The M1911 has the option of being upgraded, but wants wood instead of some other resource like steel or something. Is wood just a default resource when an unsupported item is being upgraded, perhaps?

When I try to upgrade Feathered Wraps form the Oni Of The Rim mod it says that it requires 10 wood even though the wraps are only made of Oni feathers. Is this due to incompatibility with Oni Of The Rim? Or is it instead a bug with this mod specifically? Any help is appreciated.

Any chance for an Increase quality order for items?

cant u just add a repair gizmo? that way this mod would be perfect on its own

ok that bug is gone when i remove "repair bench".. commented on that mod too

everybody just "standing" when upgrade orders are active and they have the work prio, until i manually force somebody to upgrade

I've got an error while trying to upgrade things from Persona Bond Forge:

Root level exception in OnGUI(): System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object
at EasyUpgrades.WorkGiver_IncreaseQuality.GetClosestNeededCraftingBuilding (Verse.Pawn pawn, Verse.Thing t) [0x0005b] in <fd32529ce20a4adbaaeda334453f4a38>:0

From testing and my limited knowledge of C#, it seems to happen to item crafted using recipeDefs instead of recipeMaker, so things made with the later method won't work

Is there any way to get this to work on mod-added benches? I only have the industrial benches from VFE-Production and I'm unable to upgrade anything via the smithing, machining, and tailoring benches from that mod.

@Funky Abigail I just tested in my save and had no issues so maybe a mod conflict? The statue design changed but otherwise nothing major like the bench disappear. I'm not running that Minify Everything mod so if you have it maybe that might be the cause?

Upgrading sculptures makes art benches disappear. Pawns will take the sculpture to the art bench and place it over the top of it, making it somehow disappear. The "Increase Quality" option only appears when the sculpture or statue is installed, so I imagine when the pawn carries the 'installed' sculpture to the bench it overwrites it.

@pumacatrun2
Thank you for the reply.
This is quite interesting. I'm surprised that it requires so much extra resources to increase quality. Indeed, it sounds like the amount of resources required is roughly the same as what is needed to craft a new one.

So if we were to summarize: This mod will trade resources to increase quality while saving time (instead of crafting from scratch).

@Thundercraft
1. Upgrading does require a small amount of work, not proportionate to the item/build type as far as I can see, just takes a few seconds on 3x mode.
2. Increasing quality does require a small amount of work, not proportionate to the item/build type as far as I can see, just takes a few seconds on 3x mode.
3. It does require resources to increase the quality - it did use 72 muffalo wool to upgrade a normal pair of overalls to good (cost 80 fabric to make) and 157 marble to upgrade a good bed to excellent (cost 125 to make). For the lack of extra work time though, I'd say it can be worth it.

Upgrading also uses resources - 2 components to turn a fueled stove into an electric stove.

Three questions:

Q1: Does upgrading a building require time (i.e., workAmount)? Or is it instant?
Q2: Does increasing the quality of something require time (i.e., workAmount)? Or is it instant?
Q3: Does increasing the quality of something require extra resources? And, if so, how much? (A fraction of the resources required to built it from scratch, I would assume.)

I'm asking because these details seem potentially important, but are not mentioned in the description.

lmao so true

I think we can all agree that Mlie is the patron saint of Rimworld modding.

@Mlie thanks for doing that! What a champ! I've uploaded the files.

@ToyWalrus I made a working 1.3 version if you want to use it to fix the mod since you are busy with other things:

Hope it helps!

yep still not working with 1.3

is this mod dead?

https://gist.github.com/235db9afee14a5ddec560146fba5fba1
Right-clicking on doors to upgrade them into autodoors and on items to increase quality results in a root level exception in OnGUI()

Well, I'm still on 1.2 and it still works there. ;P

Srsly though, great mod, and that's what I came here to say.

Yeah, it doesn't work at least for upgrading quality: https://pastebin.com/N0wsPuWV .

Yup same here

I get an error message from the mod Achtung that this mod interfer with three or so other mods that I use, GiddyUp Core being one of them. My pawns therefor will not do any of the upgrading that I set them to do.

do i need to start a new colony for this to work?

1.3 update doesn't seem to work...

Still not working with 1.3
