@LINX there exists a patch

Can you add support with Adaptive Storage Framework to make items not showing up on top of the vending machine?

I have a compatibility issue that only kicked in in the last few weeks. This whole collection worked just fine the last time I played (August 02, 2025), but when I started a new colony (Sept 07), I got map generation errors. After futzing adding in a handful of mods in at a time, the game works with the entire collection *except* this mod.

As it's possible (albeit unlikely) that it's clashing with more than one mod, I'd prefer to not to repeat the process from scratch starting with Vending Machines, but I can if nothing leaps out at you...

@ripkord, read the description, it says there's a refrigerated vending machine if you have the Rimfridge or simple fridge mod

I was going to just pass by this mod cos it wasn't for me but I feel like there should be feedback.
I feel like if you had the generic versions of the vending machines with a fuel type of materials, food and supply then had it be a passive thing that pawns could just refill (and guest take from) I feel like that would be a better way for me personally. Supply could be a craftable item that includes fuel, materials and meds.

would you consider adding a refrigerated vending machine?

Actually, Nova, I have fixed a bunch of bugs and made improvements in the Continued version. I am very close to full Odyssey compatibility for it and Spaceports - yes, space hotels - so if that kind of thing interests you, come over to the Continued side.

@星空的梦 You can use the original version instead of the "Continued" version.It shouldn't be any errors reported.

The mod Hospitality already updated to 1.6, is it necessary to use Continued version?

Why does one vending machine show the items inside, and the other hides them., and which is which?

@Psycho Dad
you should probably see the new dlc features to guess which mods
or ask in reddit, I think i saw them trying to make a list of which mods features were becoming vanilla

asking on every mod if it is obsolete or broken does not seem like the right move, it just pollute the comments and confuse everyone.

someone mentioned in the comments of the new DLC that it will make some mods obsolete. just wondering which ones IF any..was hoping this would remain as its a great one!

Why broken/obsolete? Is there a vending machine included in the new DLC?

is this mod broken? will it become obsolete when new DLC comes out?

Thanks, was waiting for this one to be updated :)

Hi. Dependency on steam still points to 1.5 version

Will this get updated?

Why vending machines in the medieval era?

Do I need to allow item to be used by colonist in vending machine to make guests buy it? I didn't allow colonist to use chocolate (they were eating it) to sell it for guests, but they don't buy it.

Do I need to create a new save to add this mod, or can it work in an existing save which already has Hospitality?

Did you try the "If you don't like items showing up on top of the vending machine..." part of the description?

I don't know why the texture layer of items placed in this vending machine will appear on top of it, it looks very strange

as it turns out, it was a separate mod. but i do suggest a stack limit size/ more specific options, as im finding it difficult to actually set up stuff to sell. setting the vending machine as a recognized stock pile zone might also be very helpful.

the stack size options are missing from my game when accessing the vending storage, but im watching a video of someone talking about this mod, and its on theirs. i cant figure anything out about this. but its exactly what i need.

Appreciate the help. Yea I thought vending machines wouldnt require a "shopping area". so what i am now trying is to make a shopping area in one room (which works) and then another area zone covering the vending machines outside. im selecting guests to auto shop in the shopping area by default and the other area is not selected so hope this works.

With regards to the shopping area I am surprised to hear that it would depend on a shopping area.
I used to test this in dev mode, only hospitality and this mod, plop a power cell and a vending machine next to it, fill the vending machine with smokeleaf joints, trigger a visitors group and the visitors used the vending machine and everybody happy. No shopping area needed.
If that minimal test is not working anymore, I will have a look, because the shopping area should work totally independent.

Hope you're subscribed to the thread, @Secretsquirrel. Basically you have to set a shopping area, if you don't want to use it make a 1x1 area anywhere where you don't have to worry and make it for default for all guests.
Then put another area where your vending machines are and intend to sell stuff with them, don't select this one as a shopping area, visitors should be able to use them this way. Though I am not sure if you need to set an additional area like I mentioned or it's fine with just with the shopping area that will never be used.

@Adamas, I suggest you making vending machines not depend on a Shopping area to exist or if it's not possible having it being mentioned in the description of the modpage or vendor itself.

I honestly for the absolute life of me can not figure out how to remotely get them to buy from the vending machines. I tried to follow ghosts post but...this doesnt work without some kind of tutorial ect as i just cant get it to work.

thanks @GhostNickel , I always forget that I need to set up a shopping zone in the settings

I think I figured out the issue people have had with guests not buying from these. If you have the shopping area set to "No Shopping" then guests ignore the vending machines, but if you place selling zones over them, the guests seem to use the default hospitality system most of the time and not the vending machine system. So you need to have the shopping area set to a different zone that doesn't actually cover the vending machines, so that selling is both enabled and the default hospitality store system isn't used.

does it need research

cant find cooled vending machine

I thought I fixed it but maybe im just working around an issue. I would look in the machines info tab on the bottom left and it showed no sales. But if I mark the tile the machine is on as a sale spot then people buy from it and drop money on the floor.

Sounds like I am not using it right but im not sure how to use it right really. Thanks for the reply tho!

@Tom the money is not dropped around it: it is stored inside the machine

I don't think the visitors are paying for the food from my vending machine. I have it set to normal price and the visitor setting is not set to give free food. They just walk up and take and I never see any silver on the ground near it.

Im not sure if it's because im using the vending shelves but it seems like none of my visitors are purchasing anything from them. Do i have to set them as a shopping area? The visitors always "browse" the goods but never make any purchases.

should be fixed in next version 1.2.2 of the mod

Same. Looks like fridge vending machine completely breaks functionality of all tasks (no way to set "drop of floor")

No, not work with the "[1.5; 1.4] RimFridge: Now with Shelves!".
Mod from the link above.

I just removed all the mods and tested it by adding only this vending machine mod and the essential mods. It doesn't work. This problem occurs with fridge vending machines.

Also, the problem described by 穆啸 in the comments also occurred to me. all the workstations couldn't choose whether to "put it on the ground" or "put it in the most suitable storage area", there was no response when I pressed that button.

I checked the workstation again in developer mod and a red error log was generated. I leave the log below.

Exception filling window for RimWorld.Dialog_BillConfig: System.ArgumentNullException: Value cannot be null.
Parameter name: key

For reference, this is version 1.5.

There is no plan to add an ATM to the mod.
@ilyvion perhaps your vending machine is in a shopping area of hospitality, that could explain it. But colonists can use the vending machine as regular storage that is normal, but there are mods to prevent that.
@Nyx weird since it is basically a shelf
@governmentlab should work with rimfridge

@governmentlab it doesnt?

I hope it gets patched to work with this mod too.

I can't seem to edit this to have more storage slots. What would I need to patch to make that work?

I'm also having the issue that colonists are taking items out of there for their own use (like taking meals for eating, even though there's plenty of meals available much closer to their dining table), but I'm guessing that's just RimWorld being RimWorld and there's not much to do about it.

Maybe I'm missing something, but guests buy the items directly instead of "vending" them. I.e. they take the items directly "out of storage" and leave silver on the ground.

I have seen videos where the "Nutrition Paste Dispenser" acts as a vending machine. Do you know if Medieval Overhaul's "Stew Pot" can also be set as such? Or what can and can't be a vending machine is already defined by the mod?

The Mod Options has two "Hospitality: Vending Machines" buttons, the second of which opens the Hospitality config.

Any chance the option to hide items graphics displaying on vending machines could be added baseline to the mod? Perspective storage hasn't been updated yet.

How long until we get actual ATMs like in the picture? To summon bullshit silver out of nowhere to buy my colony's stuff.

I'm running a primarily trading based colony with a precept requiring frequent trades; it would be nice if a sale via the vending machines counted as a trade in ideology
