i know medic is aktiv with priority 1, and the rest is on 2.
no other has medic on. so hes the only one left.
but instead he goes gathering and hauling some shit instead of treat patients.
i have the artifical limbs and the meds stocked but he ignores them.

also i noticed, i can force him to do one operation, but when i queue the other 6 patients, he only perform the first one and then goes gardening and shit again.

Karatejurgen, job priority is not what the mod looks at. Surgery success change and skill are. If you disable medical on your best surgeon, no one will do surgery since the point of the mod is to only do surgery with the person who has the best chances.

my medic has priority 1 but he dont want to perform a surgeon at all.
i disabled all other dutys only Medic left, but even if i draft him, he went to "wandering around" instead of do his job

Hi Lestat, this mod does not have any UI elements.

Love the options and this mod but I did want to mention one thing that isn't necessarily game breaking but is annoying that I hadn't seen anyone else talk about. With the button marking which colonist to do surgery in the health tab, it cuts off some of the stats near the bottom. For all I know it might not even be this mod, but it's the only thing I can think of, but either moving that marker or allowing the health tab to grow with it would be awesome. Sorry if it causes issues with the request!

Well it's not a "bug". The mod it's doing what it's supossed to do. You just have to add a functionality to that.

I'm not saying in any way it's gonna be easy, but it can be done, and it's a very good idea.

Also pls add functionality to only allow doctors with >100% manipulation to perform surgeries.

@Sp00py, there is a known issue with this, you are correct. I have updated the description to reflect this. The bug is actually a holdover from the original mod and is not new to 1.6.

@Gideon, just for clarification, you mention in the description “ Only the doctor with the best surgey success chance will perform surgeries.

If he is the one on the table, or is unable to perform tasks requiring manipulation, the next best one will perform the operation.”

However, the string of recent comments below seem to contradict that, at least from my interpretation of what you’re saying. Can you please elaborate on that? Or am I just misunderstanding? Thanks!

Yeah I'm not using this mod then. Maybe if you made a mod that allows only doctors with decent surgery success change to perform surgeries i would rather use that. It would just check IF that number is higher than X and prevent my pawn that's recently been mauler and has 40% manipulation from installing bionic and botching every single one of those.

While this is being evaluated, it's not a change that can be pumped out quickly because the current code does not have a way to scan multiple times, and if I simply tell it to scan multiple times, this will cause performance degradation in line with how many pawns are in a colony. Essentially, each job would have to scan, if it finds a bad pawn, it has to rescan excluding that pawn from the results...which means every job will hit the CPU repeatedly until it finds a good match. The workaround for this is to maintain a cache table of all the pawns sorted by their doctoring skill and search for the highest skilled pawn who is also available, but this will require trial and error and testing to make sure there aren't any issues with detecting availability/maintaining the cache.

@Rovstam this is a known issue. The original code for this mod was written to scan the list of pawns eligible for doctoring, select the one with the highest skill, and then stop. This results in no surgery happening when that best pawn is unavailable. Changing this behavior requires a significant overhaul of the core mod functionality.

So if my best doctor is set to get a surgery he will just lay down for eternity despite there having more doctors available

@SalzStange yes it should be fine to both add and remove. The mod does not persist anything in the save file, so there is no corruption risk from adding and removing mid-save.

is it possible to add the mod during a game (to a save) ?

thanks!

You're welcome.

Thank you for the update!

1.6 plase

1.6 pls :c

Could you set a operation to be done by as a manual solution? like we have with crafting done by or min doctor level x. Saves always looking for best doc, adds a little busy work for players.

thanks 👍

All, I'm doing a code review for this mod. It looks like the reason people are experiencing situations where an unavailable best doc makes no surgery get done is because the way the code handles checking doc eligibility is not adaptive, it always checks for the best doc and if that doc is unavailable no one else ever bets the bill.

I'm looking into a way to cache docs on the map and instead of stalling the job when the best pawn is unavailable, having it look at that list to see if the pawn who wants to do the job is in the eligible docs list at the highest skilled spot.

This approach will work, but it's a performance hog when jobs are evaluated, so it requires optimizations to avoid rebuilding the cache every time a pawn wants to do a job (this will get expensive on CPU as more pawns join the colony). I have ideas for this as well, but please be patient as this will all take some time to design and test.

No worries

I don't have it saved

@Ignis, do you have a save file where this happened? If so, please friend me and I'll work with you to look into this.

Looks like if the best surgeon in the colony is paramedic, mod breaks and no surgery is performed.

is there a similar mod but for diseases?

@Thels, I'm not a fan of log spam. If you don't mind, please friend me and I'd like to get screenshots of what you're experiencing so I can see if I can decompile and remove the log spam.

@Thels what log spam? so it' causes errors?

When gatekeeping goes wrong

Please note, this mod causes a lot of debug log spam.

@Ganja

The very first line of the description says it isn't my original work and who the creator was:

Reupload for 1.5 of Hatti's QualitySurgeon. The original mod is located here: https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=857350593

you shouldn't name the mod like it's your own man, its kinda low ngl

i have my best guy with 20 medic but the 2nd medic with 8 want to do all surgery

If he is the one on the table, or is unable to perform tasks requiring manipulation, the next best one will perform the operation.

I used a single mechanic and tried to use a nursing robot to operate on myself.
But when I lay in bed waiting for the operation, the nursing robot did not respond.
There is only one person in my colony, the above is from Google translator.

@013A I have the same problem, only surgeries i have seen done are the administer drug type, others i have to force my doctors.

it seems like the mod isnt giving the job to the next best surgeon when the best one is busy. my best doctor was waiting for a bionic spine and the guy next in line wouldnt do the job until i turned off doctoring for the better one

Ive noticed that this mod appear in my mod load list in the main menu, but does not appear in my mod list, in game. I noticed it after almost lost a pawn to a unskilled surgeon. It is not working for me, even in new games, for some reason.

@Roggle, to be clear, the mod does not force the best surgeon to do anything, it just prevents others from doing surgery. If you have doctoring disabled (or low priority), operations will not get done.

@Gideon I don't think so haha. Must be a complication with another mod I had.

@Roggle I have not had this problem. Your work priorities might need adjusting.

Thanks for the effort but sadly it doesn't work for me. Issue is no one went to do the operation even after two days so something is wrong. (tons of good doctors not hurt). Thanks though bud.

This mod is unfortunately breaking some pawn logic causing my second best surgeon (the only person assigned to actually do surgery) to grab meds off the shelf, decide that he's not the right guy for the job, drop the meds on the floor. Then the jobgiver tries to give the job to my best surgeon (who isn't assigned to do any surgery); they promptly ignore the jobgiver because it isn't their job, and my second best surgeon tries to take over repeating this loop.

I use DnSpy; it's great for viewing the code inside C# Mono DLLs and makes editing the DLLs a simple right click -> edit, change code, compile, save. (Or copy the code out to a new c# project if you want to make it easier for long-term maintenance)

I'm happy to help with getting this mod back into a Visual Studio project if you decide to take on maintenance of it.

@Nepenthe, you're welcome. At this time, I don't have original source code for the mod, so this reup was simply to make it stop giving incompatibility notices. If the original modder doesn't pick it back up again, I'll look at the effort to decompile and attempt to rebuild the project from scratch.

Also, thanks for the mod - this has saved many of my colonists from botched surgeries without needing to micromanage everything.

Anomaly adds a "surgical inspection" and because of [REDACTED] you don't always want your best surgeon to do the surgery; it's often best to have a paramedic mech do the work. While you can force any humanlike pawn to perform a surgery with this mod installed you can't force a paramedic. Adding an exception to the postfix patch to not cancel surgery if the pawn checking to see if they can do the job is a mech and the job is a surgical inspection fixes that:

Current code in QualitySurgeon.Postfix() (as seen in dnSpy):

if (QualitySurgeon.isSurgery(recipe) && QualitySurgeon.checkForDoc(pawn, billGiver, recipe))

Suggested updated:

if (QualitySurgeon.isSurgery(recipe) && QualitySurgeon.checkForDoc(pawn, billGiver, recipe) && (!(recipe.defName == "SurgicalInspection" && pawn.RaceProps.IsMechanoid)))

@lol Thanks for sharing that. I try to remember to put that link in the description, but forgot to on this one. I'll add it for transparency.

The original mod is here, in case anyone needs it: https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=857350593
