Craftsmanship

Description
Pawns who share a passion for a particular skill will occasionally chat about it. When this happens, the less experienced pawn gains skill XP based on the difference in skill levels and their overall proficiency.

The greater the skill gap, the more likely these conversations are to occur, and the more experience the learner will gain. These chats also improve the social relationship between the participants.

XP gained through these interactions respects the daily learning cap — pawns who have already trained a skill significantly that day will receive less bonus XP from conversation.

The chance for these events to occur can be configured in the mod settings, ranging from 0% (never) to 100% (always).

The XP gained can now be adjusted as well.

✅ Safe to add to existing save games.
⚠️ Removing the mod from an ongoing save may cause issues.

Pairs really well with the Level Up! Mod by Krafs

Updated 7/13/2025: 1.6, Translation stuff and SETTINGS! Default is 50%, adjust to your liking!
Updated 7/12/2025: 1.6 compatibility.
Insert missing update history here.
Updated 11/01/2022: Removed settings for now, as the settings helper I was using does not play nicely yet.
Updated 4/16/2020: With less frequent crafts chat, and added German Translation.

I only mentioned them because those are the two most common was to generate DDS textures haha

I use either rimpy nor rimsort, but I'll try it regardless if it won't cause problems

Delete all the dds textures in the motes folder. This won't break anything, dds are optional, the last update of rimworld added support for dds but they may use a different implementation than rimpy/rimsort dds generation.

Well the error hasn't gone away but my game also didn't detonate because of it so I kind of don't know what changed to throw the error anymore.

@Jellypowered word of warning. I was using this mod with no problems but I launched the game after the update today and got a red error.

Exception loading UnityEngine.Texture2D from file.
absFilePath: /home/[MYNAME]/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/workshop/content/294100/2010945849/1.6/Textures/Motes/Hammer.dds
Exception: UnityEngine.UnityException: Failed to create texture because of invalid parameter

I have no idea if this error is going to cause serious issues but nothing about my modlist has changed from before today update. The file in question seems to be present and fine and none of the other textures threw anything.

If I get something that affects my game i'll update

Don’t know, not a mod I use, but if the mod defines its skills in a vanilla manner, I don’t see why it wouldn’t work for those too.

How does this work with Vanilla Skills Expanded?

I lied.
Finally use the social opinion thought def
Add option to disable it.
Add option to require shared passions or not.
