Vanilla Social Interactions Expanded means to bring much more needed life to your pawns and interactions they have. This mod alters what pawns do in their spare time, puts some extra emphasis on relations tab and adds many mechanics that breathe fresh air into otherwise boring and stale game. Pawns now also have aspirations that can be fulfilled to gain powerful mood buffs, and the whole inspiration system is also changed.

Many new mechanics are added and each of them can be individually disabled if you dislike it, through the power of mod options. We are constantly looking to improve, so if you have any feedback, don’t hesitate to leave a comment and let us know!

We spent a lot of time working on this mod and even more time testing it, but if there are any issues you encounter, please make your way to the Known Issues section for instructions what to do.
