Passion On Level Up

Adds a chance for pawns to gain passion on level up. For those who always sets stats multiplier for global learning factor higher and higher for every play through, this might be a really good alternative.

Requires Vanilla Skills Expanded and Harmony to work. I would also recommend my VSE Rebalance mod (listed below) and EndlessGrowth mods to be added as well, along with everything these mods might recommend. (Like unlimited for endless growth).

Pawn passions for different skills go from:
Apathy -> None -> Minor -> Major -> Natural -> Critical (Read below for balance patch)

The chance for the passion to go up decreases as the pawn's passion goes up, meaning apathy to none is easier than major to natural.

I designed this mod to work well with my other mod, VE Skill Rebalance. In short, it makes it so that the different passions' effects on learning rates is rebalanced to make it so that critical, for example, doesn't apply a harsh negative bonus on all other skills, ensuring that a pawn upgrading to critical doesn't ruin their learning rate for everything else. On the other hand, you might actually like it if a pawn upgrades to critical if you are trying to get specialised pawns for your large colony playthrough, balance is up to you.

As always, if you notice any problems with the mod, make sure to leave a comment and I will try to make a patch for it.

Massive thank you's to PeteTimesSix and Legodude for helping me make the final touches to the mod, without them this mod wouldn't have been possible.
