Convenient Scheduling

Streamline Your Colony’s Routine with Convenient Scheduling for Oxygen Not Included

Managing the daily lives of your duplicants is a cornerstone of success in Oxygen Not Included. While the base game offers robust scheduling tools, the Convenient Scheduling mod introduces a layer of automation and refined defaults that can significantly ease the burden of micromanagement, allowing you to focus on the bigger picture of your thriving subterranean civilization.

Enhanced Default Schedules

Tired of the default alarm constantly blaring or the basic schedule feeling less than optimal? Convenient Scheduling revises these presets to be more sensible and user-friendly right from the start. This means new colonies begin with a more balanced distribution of tasks, reducing initial chaos and providing a solid foundation for your duplicants’ productivity. If you find yourself wanting to reset to a clean slate, simply deleting all existing schedules will restore these improved default routines.

Intelligent Automation for New Duplicants

One of the mod’s most powerful features is its intelligent approach to integrating new arrivals into your colony’s established rhythm. Instead of all new duplicants defaulting to the same schedule, this mod automatically assigns them to the schedule with the fewest members. This proactive distribution prevents overcrowding on specific tasks and ensures a more even workload across your entire workforce. Furthermore, the mod corrects a quirk where deleting a schedule could previously lead to all duplicants consolidating onto the first available option.

Customization for Specialized Duplicants

The Convenient Scheduling mod also recognizes that not all duplicants are created equal. With recent updates, you gain the flexibility to assign distinct schedules for your standard duplicants and those who have undergone bionic augmentation. This allows for greater specialization and ensures that your highly advanced duplicants are utilized in the most effective roles, catering to their unique capabilities.

Key Features:

* Revised, more reasonable default schedules out of the box.
* Automatic assignment of new duplicants to the least populated schedules.
* Prevention of mass consolidations when schedules are deleted.
* Ability to set separate schedules for regular and bionic duplicants.
