Description
The mod optimizes idle for mechanoids.

Every time the mechanoids run out of work, they start destroying the TPS in the colony, I'm sick of it. Therefore, I made a patch that replaces the idle behavior of the mechanoids. When the mechanoids have nothing to do, they shutdown and wait until they have a job to do.

The approximate shutdown time for unemployed mechanoids is 2 hours (3000 ticks), after which they will either start working or continue to lie down.

The mod was tested on a colony existing for 11 years, with 38 working mechanoids, excluding combat ones. Almost dead TPS began to return to normal.

FAQ
Q: Mechanoids sleep for a whole minute and do nothing! What should I do?
A: Wait, wait and wait again. Seriously, shutdown's rollback isn't big enough to report it.

Q: Save add/remove in midgame?
A: Yes, unlike the extended version, there is only one patch, which does not affect the game much.

Link to other mods made by me.

Extended version of this mod.

For version 1.5 use this mod. It does the same thing, but better.

I really want this mod ONLY.
This mod is a QOL mod, while the "extended version" is not.

The functionality of this mod can theoretically be done all by player manual control, therefore this is strictly a QOL mod.
The "extended version", however, adds a bunch of stuff that reduces the game difficulty substantially, which I really don't want.

I am the same. The variety of UI makes me dizzy and dizzy. I think we all prefer this concise mod. so 1.5 plz

Personal hobby, don't want to use less than 10% of the features in a bunch of functions~

And this feature is also in “work modes”, and it is brought to mind and optimized there. Damn, simply don’t use modes you don’t need, more than 95% of the mod’s content is optional and customizable.

It's definitely not better than yours, because I guess many people just want to reduce performance consumption during their free time. Instead of wanting more work modes. I don't want more work modes.
Look at your subscription count, you have reached nearly 10000 subscriptions with just one feature~

This mod will not be updated to version 1.5. Use the one listed in the link in the description.

I find that this mod is absolutely essential for my mechanator playthroughs. Tried doing one on the new 1.5 update and it was so bad without this. Gonna have to wait until at least this is updated before going back to the game.
