Guarding Pawns

Description
This mod adds 3 different jobs to protect your colony and pawns from possible threats.

Features:
  • Guarding and Patrolling Spots inside the Security category.
  • A Guard tab to handle all the mod's features.
  • Options to stop rendering both Guarding Spots and Patrolling Spots, for aesthetic purposes.
  • Compatibility with Biotech, allowing mechanoids to guard.

UI Content:

Only Pawns assigned to the Guard job in the Work tab will be shown here!
  • Select Job will allow you to assign your pawns to different jobs. Currently, the options are:
    1. Unassigned - The pawn will do nothing. This is the default choice.
    2. Guard Spot - The pawn will sit at one of the spots of the designated color, constantly looking for enemies.
    3. Protect Pawn - The pawn will constantly follow the designated pawn, protecting them from threats.
    4. Patrol - The pawn will follow a route made of the spots of the designated color, looking for enemies along the way.
  • Extra options for the selected job. These change depending on the selected job:
    1. Unassigned - No button will be shown.
    2. Guard Spot - Lets you to change what set of spots where you want the pawn to stand, differentiated by colors.
    3. Protect Pawn - Lets you choose the pawn you wish to protect.
    4. Patrol - Lets you change the route color the pawn will follow when patrolling.
      It also includes a checkbox to indicate wether the pawn should return to the first spot after reaching the last one (1 - 2 - 3) or loop back when reaching the last spot ( 1 - 2 - 3 - 2 - 1).
  • The Show Patrolling Spot and Show Guarding Spot checkboxes will stop the respective spots from rendering.

Future plans:
  • Ideology and Anomaly support

@kongkim your error aims towards VFE Mechanoids and Guarding Pawns transpiling the same thing, but when testing with the 2 mods alone, I can't get the error and thus can't reproduce it

I don't do anything else than add jobs, if the androids can't work, perhaps they only enable jobs defined by themselves, in which case id need a compat patch, ill look into this

VRE - Androids don't appear as an option for guards. Is this intentional or isn't implemented yet?

Thankful for this alternative mod, good job.

As i said to the other guy I can't reproduce it with the mod alone so you're gonna have to tell me what other mods break it

As someone said before changing colours seems to cause pawns to just wander around and ignore everything, for me only the red and yellow guard spots seem to work, every other colour causes them to just cease doing anything at all and wander around

I keep getting this error.
