Good Hunting

This mod is about adding some realism to meat, fat, and hide quantity drops from various creatures.

In the 'Alone' survival series, contestants would find themselves severely lacking in fat while trying to subsist on rabbits and small game. Fish are a necessary and vital source of fat.

I like the idea of bushmeat indicated a very lean animal. Rabbits seems like good candidates for this, while raccoons seem more like the kind of critter that gorges itself.

I'm also pretty mad that rabbits don't die with a single arrow shot. That's like a human getting impaled by a ballista and shrugging it off. You hit a rabbit with an arrow, it's going to die. So I've nerfed health points for small animals.

An animals health points are now directly reflected in the amount of raw meat they provide (like offal), and stronger animals will provide bush meat in addition to this "healthy" meat.

FEATURES
- Redmeat directly reflects the health points of an animal, whereas bushmeat will reflect extra perceived muscle, and fat for animals that are slower and tankier (plus fish).

PLANNED
- add a config file with drop multiplier for hide, fat, meats, feathers and all (nowhere soon, sorry! ~GreenDragonette)

- Almost all animals have male/female HP (meaning you drop females faster, but you get less drops from them, too; exception working the opposite: hyena)

- Further slight HP/drop tweaks for some animals (mostly deer)

- Coral fish has a chance to drop fish meat now (so if you can't find any other source of food you might try your luck with them; they can drop only one though, they are tiny)

- Original pink salmon's drops doubled

- Saltwater fish should respawn more often and in bigger groups; couldn't change their drops for now, maybe in a future update

UPDATE 1.2.1

- Fixed moose calf not dropping fat

- adds fat to salmon
- increases amount of salmon and meat gained from salmon
- animals only drop a single hide of their size type.
- bunnies drop bushmeat. Males are slightly bigger than females.
- coons are fatter. Males drop more meat on average, females are more variable.
- foxes give more meat but are not as fat as raccoons. Females are fattier than males.
- Herbivores now give both redmeat ("organs") and bushmeat ("muscle"). Males will usually have higher muscle yield and lower fat. Females have lower muscle and higher fat and at greater variation.
- Altered health scores of various animals to be more realistic. Not many animals can take a full spear to the face and live.

 

COMPATIBILITY:

- Butchering: no errors found, should work okay

- Combat Overhaul - version 1.3.2 should be compatible
