Description
The mod provides an entirely different/automated handling of pawn Sleep/Recreation/Work cycles, without those little colored squares in the grid.

The dependency "ModButtons" will add a similarly-named tab in the bottom-right corner, with some control buttons.

You need to manually turn it on (with the topmost button), and then it will automatically manage your pawn's Sleep/Recreation/Work cycles.

With this mod running, the classic Schedule tab's little colored grid of squares isn't usable anymore. You can put anything you want there, but the mod will ignore it, and overwrite it every few seconds. You can, however, watch the rows change color as your pawns go through their cycle.

Splash of blue....its very effective to keep pawns happy/working. but doesnt recognize slaves or keep married/lovers on the same schedule. so your giving up some things in exchange for single pawns being more efficient of their time/ less likely to break

Apparently it does not from testing. It does work well for maximizing work, but total mood can be lower for couples

How does this handle pawns in relationtionship? does it keep both of them sleeping at same time so you have got loving mood bonus?

Is there a small video of how this actually works/plays out? or even just someone playing a series with this enabled?

Hi, sorry, I don't have a github to put the issue there.

Could there be a way to exempt specific pawns from the scheduler?

Slaves don't need recreation. Yet most of mine are permanently in recreation/sleep.

There should be a button "ModButtons" in the very lower right corner which pops open a tray with some buttons.

There is a known bug where the tray of buttons might not show the first time you open it, and you gotta open-and-close it an extra time to get the tray of buttons to appear.

How do I enable this mod in the game? I'm getting the prompt telling me to do so in-game, but I'm unsure how.

thanks @DonZekane the common sense mod and always set to recreation was what I was looking for too!
