This started when I came across this post by kayleigh-83 asking if anyone knew of a mod to make the drafting table gain tinkering hobby enthusiasm rather than Arts & Crafts, I didn't and nobody else seemed to, but I liked the idea so I made it! Even though making the mod to make all drafting table interactions gain tinkering hobby enthusiasm was quick and easy, I went down a rabbit hole. Firstly, I decided that personally I'd prefer it if only the blueprints interaction gained tinkering enthusiasm but the other two drawing options still gained Arts & Crafts, so that flavor was born. But, I then also decided that it would be cool if the blueprints interaction gained the mechanical skill rather than creativity, while the two others still gain creativity, so I've made that as a separate mod compatible with either flavor of the hobby mod or neither. Lastly, it was also bothering me that the interactions say 'Draft', that doesn't sound right to me so I renamed it to 'Draw', which is another separate mods compatible with both or one of or neither of the hobby & skill mods.

To get more use out of the improved drafting table, I recommend this mod that makes career rewards also available as aspiration rewards.
