CAPS RICS 1.0.15 Update

============================================
RICS 1.0.15 - Changelog
Released: January 2026

New Features
────────────

• Added new translation files:

• Twitch Settings Tab
• Game & Events Tab
• Rewards Tab

• New commands (thanks to @kanboru!):
!SetTraits → Mass set multiple traits at once (great for applying lists)
!Factions → Lists all factions currently in the game
!Colonists → Shows count of colonists + animals in the colony

Added Admin/Utility Commands
────────────────────────────

• !cleanlootboxes [dry/dryrun | all | orphans]

• dry/dryrun → Shows orphaned lootboxes (no changes)
• all → Deletes ALL lootboxes from everyone (DANGEROUS!)
• orphans → Removes only orphaned lootboxes

• !cleanviewers [dry/dryrun | plat/platform | all]

• dry/dryrun → Shows how many viewers would be cleaned
• plat/platform → Removes viewers with missing platform ID (safe & recommended)
• all → Aggressive cleanup (use with caution)

• !togglestore [on/off/alts]
Turns store-related commands on/off:
backpack, wear, equip, use, addtrait, removetrait, replacetrait, settraits,
pawn, surgery, event, weather, militaryaid, raid, revivepawn, healpawn, passion

Special values:
• !togglestore → Toggles current state
• !togglestore on → Forces ON (also accepts: enable, 1, true)
• !togglestore off → Forces OFF (also accepts: disable, 0, false)

Improvements & Fixes
────────────────────

• Fixed several commands failing to find pawns in some situations
(!healpawn, !revivepawn, etc.)

• Improved Drop Pod & item placement logic (especially for underground bases):
RICS now tries to find a valid surface drop location in this priority order:

1. Ship landing beacon (highest priority)
2. Orbital trade beacon
3. Caravan hitching spot
4. Near average colonist position (vanilla-like behavior)
5. Center of map (last resort)

→ RICS now actively avoids underground maps
→ Recommendation: Underground base owners should encourage viewers to use !backpack

• Fixed invalid users with no platform ID staying in viewer list
→ Use !cleanviewers plat/platform to safely remove them

• Fixed !backpack not properly handling multiple stackable items
→ Can now properly place stacks (note: still possible to overload inventory → pawn may drop excess)

============================================
Have fun with the new commands and cleaner systems! 🚀
Big thanks to @kanboru for the awesome new command contributions!
