Note: I found this because they got in a loop performing the maintenance tasks from https://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2803673873

It should be sufficient to use the current version of that mod along with these cats, and see this reproduced; they get in a loop of forever repeating the maintenance task that they can't complete (because they have no apparel / weapon to repair.)

Technically, I think, this is also a bug in the LTS Maintenance mod, which returns a Job object if asked – even if ShouldSkip() would have returned true. Pretty sure it is also a logic bug on your jobgiver too, though.

Not sure it is a good idea. ShouldSkip of some work giver may try to treat them as full colonist for some reason, causing exception. I'll try to test it.

@ignis, so far it is working correctly for me, but I understand the concern. Perhaps trying that, and catching the exception, is the way to handle it? (or I guess hard-code a check for this specific job?)

Otherwise you should probably declare an incompatibility with the [LTS]Maintenance mod; the cats will not be able to do anything but uselessly consume resources.
