My Veteran Sniper Taught a Rookie How to Shoot Over Poker

I always run the Level Up! mod for that sweet dopamine hit, but a while back, I kept getting notifications that my colonists were leveling up in skills they were completely terrible at and weren't even assigned to do. I was so confused, and when I asked on Discord, everyone just gave me the classic "It's probably a mod conflict!" answer.

I believed my mod loadout had finally snapped until I zoomed in on the rec room and caught the exact moment it happened. My grizzled veteran sniper, Jax, was sitting at the poker table with a brand-new hauler who barely knew which end of a rifle to hold. They were deep in conversation, sipping their morning coffee and tossing chips onto the felt, when suddenly—ding!—the hauler leveled up in Shooting right there at the table! It wasn't a glitch, but the "Teaching" feature from Vanilla Social Interactions Expanded.

Turns out, high-skilled pawns will casually lecture lower-skilled ones during their regular social chats. Part of me hesitated and thought about disabling it because getting free combat XP from playing cards feels a little bit like cheating, but well… I'm just going to keep it because why not? XD
