Real Meat
Size-based animal drops and temperature-aware meat spoilage. All settings configurable in-game.
Description
<h2>Real Meat Mod - Overview</h2> <p>Real Meat brings realistic hunting mechanics to Vintage Story by scaling animal drops based on size and implementing temperature-aware meat spoilage.</p> <h3>Core Features</h3> <h4>Size-Based Animal Drops</h4> <p>Animals are classified into five weight categories, each with configurable drop multipliers:</p> <ul> <li><strong>Tiny (0-3kg):</strong> chickens, rabbits, baby animals</li> <li><strong>Small (3-40kg):</strong> foxes, raccoons, wolves</li> <li><strong>Medium (40-250kg):</strong> sheep, pigs, deer</li> <li><strong>Large (250-500kg):</strong> bears, bison</li> <li><strong>Huge (>500kg):</strong> elk, moose, elephants, mammoths</li> </ul> <p>By default, larger animals yield proportionally less meat per kilogram (reducing the "whale effect"), while smaller animals can be configured to drop more realistic amounts. All meat, fat, hide, and bone drops are independently configurable from 0-500%.</p> <h4>Temperature-Based Perishability</h4> <p>Meat and fat now respond realistically to environmental temperature:</p> <ul> <li><strong>Freezing (<0°C):</strong> Meat lasts 5x longer (default)</li> <li><strong>Cold (0-15°C):</strong> Meat lasts 2x longer (default)</li> <li><strong>Standard (15-30°C):</strong> Normal vanilla spoilage rate</li> <li><strong>Hot (>30°C):</strong> Meat spoils 2x faster (default)</li> </ul> <p>All temperature thresholds and multipliers are fully configurable.</p> <h3>Mod Compatibility</h3> <h4>Butchering Mod</h4> <p>Real Meat automatically detects and integrates with the Butchering mod:</p> <ul> <li><strong>Compounding Multipliers:</strong> Real Meat multipliers apply on top of Butchering's equipment efficiency and skill bonuses</li> <li><strong>Formula:</strong> Final Drops = Base × Equipment Efficiency × Skill × Real Meat Multiplier</li> <li><strong>Butchering-Specific Drops:</strong> Configurable multipliers for blood, prime meat, sinew, and ivory (0-500%)</li> <li><strong>Automatic Detection:</strong> No configuration needed - works seamlessly when both mods are installed</li> <li>Works with all Butchering equipment: hooks, ceiling hooks, and tables</li> </ul> <h4>Food Shelves Mod</h4> <p>Real Meat respects Food Shelves preservation mechanics:</p> <ul> <li><strong>Container Preservation:</strong> Meat stored in Food Shelves freezers, cooling cabinets, and other preservation containers uses the container's preservation rate instead of environmental temperature</li> <li><strong>Automatic Detection:</strong> No configuration needed - detected at startup</li> <li><strong>Vanilla Compatible:</strong> Also respects vanilla container preservation (storage vessels, crocks, cellars)</li> </ul> <h3>Configuration</h3> <h4>In-Game Setup</h4> <p>Configure everything through the Configure Everything mod interface with organized sections for each animal size category, temperature settings, and Butchering compatibility options. After making changes:</p> <ol> <li>Click "Save" in Configure Everything</li> <li>Type <code>/realmeat reload</code> in chat to apply changes immediately</li> <li>Use <code>/realmeat status</code> to view current settings</li> </ol> <h4>Commands</h4> <ul> <li><code>/realmeat reload</code> - Reload configuration without restarting</li> <li><code>/realmeat status</code> - Display current multiplier values</li> </ul> <h3>Compatibility</h3> <ul> <li>Works with vanilla and modded animals (configurable)</li> <li><strong>Butchering mod:</strong> Full compatibility with compounding multipliers</li> <li><strong>Food Shelves mod:</strong> Full compatibility with preservation containers</li> <li>Requires Configure Everything (configlib) for in-game configuration</li> <li>Uses Harmony patching for maximum compatibility</li> </ul> <h3>Technical Details</h3> <ul> <li><strong>Author:</strong> Huanpo (Inspired by R.Meat by LordOri)</li> <li><strong>Version:</strong> 1.5.0</li> <li><strong>Dependencies:</strong> Configure Everything (for config UI)</li> <li><strong>Optional:</strong> Butchering mod (for enhanced butchering features), Food Shelves mod (for preservation containers)</li> </ul> <p>Fully configurable, lightweight, and designed to enhance the hunting and food preservation experience!</p>
