its working fine with 1.6

Please update good sir!

Has anyone tried it with 1.6?

I was hoping someone had maybe come up with a creative setup

No, I meant a more indirect method (maybe by fucking around with the work tab or schedule or something)

I tried to change the spot to a small dot and it turned invisible, I kind of like it but would love some feedback of what people think the spot should look like. Originally it was just a silhouette of a chess pawn.

@SAUCE__GODD Not really, this is not really a guard mod. If you want more features the mod Guarding Pawns(I think it's called that) would be better, but would come with it own performance issues. However, I have heard it's not terrible for performance and better than the Guard For Me mod, but any mod that adds new features like that will have some sort of performance impact.

Does anyone know a way to have them alternate spots at certain times, creating patrol routes?

Made me think of a job couch, where idlers sit ready for direct odd jobs.
Would be great if they keep themself fit in regards of recreation, sleep and food - like a ready for action-team, who stay ready in the rec/din room

@123caboom Yes, idlers still exist this just gives you a very easy way to give them something to do, so they aren't technically idling. You still need to use this mod correctly and user error can lead to idlers.

Doni still get notificated for idlers? Cause this also hints on walled-in ppl or en-/exclosed pawns

@onCreate offically updated

This mod still works well in 1.5 playthrough
Just updating 'about.xml' file would do the trick.

update plz

Any chance you could update their job description so it doesn't say "Doing an unknown recipe"? [i.imgur.com]

great ideal for the medieval fantasy playthroughs if use undead magic you can have a skeleton "guarding"

Recently, do something for idle doesnt work 100%
this seems like a good alternative

@natthegreat668 I made this mod because apparently that mod is bad for performance

How does this compare to the “do something for idle” mod?

some suggestion. Let the spot texture more noticeable like add a outer box.

@jinn in outer space The same way as any other job, it's basically just adds a spot with bills that requires nothing, and produce nothing.

Woah, could this be the guard for me alternative that doesnt hurt TPS :D

My main question is, if they are doing the idle job at what point do they check what else they need to do eg sleep or eat? Do I just set their work time in the schedule to force them to stop working at a certain point

Actually amazing take, and sure to boost my tps! thanks for the mod

Wow! Just like real life!
