Worship and Sacrifice

Description
Worship & Sacrifice expands upon religious ideoligions by implementing two new needs: Worship and Sacrifice!

All ideoligions that use a theist foundation/structure (including Archist) now have access to two new precepts: Worship and Sacrifice. These precepts dictate how members of those ideoligions respond to the two new needs with appropriate mood (de)buffs.

Pawns can be scheduled to worship similar to meditation (or other tasks) where they'll seek out the best temple/church available and otherwise worship in their bedrooms or just outside. Note that an impressive temple will yield faster worship gain!

The sacrifice need can only be fulfilled by performing one of three rituals:
- Prisoner Sacrifice
- Animal Sacrifice
- Gladiator Duel

The former two have been unlocked for all theist structures, so it's no longer necessary to take the cannibal meme to sacrifice prisoners, for instance.

In addition to these new needs, theist structures now unlock a new "Blessing" ritual. This ritual is heavily affected by the average worship satisfaction among all pawns of that ideoligion in the colony. If the ritual is satisfying, you will receive blessings by one of your deites.

As of now, there are two possible blessings:
- Weapon blessings; if the targeted pawn is holding a neolithic melee weapon, that weapon will be "blessed" granting it persona-like properties.
- If the pawn is not holding a weapon, the pawn themselves will be blessed, granting them heightened consciousness for a period of time.

CHANGE LOG:
22-12-01
- Added settings menu for configuring need fall/gain rates
- Fixed bug with sacrifice ritual memories
---------
COMPATIBILITY:
I have tested the mod in a fairly large modlist and found no major incompatibilities, but I can't guarantee that it'll work with mods like CE. For now, the mod does not patch additional memes and structures even if they are theist. Such patches might come in the future in which case I'll list them here.

The mod should be fine to add mid-save, but you might need to re-do your ideoligion to make sure rituals and such are added properly. I can't guarantee that it's safe to remove, do it at your own risk!

Is this mod currently compatible with 1.5?

I might get around to updating this to 1.5 once I actually play the update for myself. Once I do, I'll see if I can't get some of the other things mentioned in the comments in there.

This is a nice idea but would you be willing to tie it to expectations? It's a bit annoying to have a -10 to everyone's mood for not enough worship and no sacrifice when we don't even have a bed yet.

what was changed?

lol I am getting some sort of bug where if a pawn is injured and on bed rest, when it is worship time they will get up and just run around not actually doing any worshiping.

how do I build temple?churches ??

My pawn all pray in their rooms even though I have altar + pews

When you get around to updating this, you should add a condition for worship called "blessed" or something that scales with the worship need, so maybe if a pawn has very high worship need they have a slight boost to blood pumping, filtration, etc. and (if it would help balance it) slight debuffs when the need is very low. might help worship have some better purpose rather than just mood buffs since mood is easy to handle late-game

Looking forwards for this getting updated when ya got the free time to!
I left a comment in the feature requests discussion seconding the requests for sermon rituals and seeing if worship could count as a meditation type for psycasters via royalty with a patch for Psycasts Expanded from the VE team.
