Mod «Vanilla Food Variety Expanded» for Rimworld (v1.5)

Vanilla Food Variety Expanded is a lightweight mod that aims to add a little bit of depth to the colonists, and it does so by rewarding you for providing your colonists with decent food variety. After all, it feels a bit unnatural that your colonists are more than happy to consume rice simple meals for every meal of their life, forever.

Now, each colonist will remember a certain amount of meals they last consumed, as well as the ingredients of these meals. The more varied the meals and ingredients are, the happier your colonists will be. On the other hand, providing them only with one ingredient in the form of one meal, forever, will make them miserable.

Furthermore, each colonist now has a favourite meal or ingredient, which will count as two different meals/ingredients when consumed!

Unlike other similar mods, we do not patch the food searching job, which means it should have almost no effect on performance. As our mod takes the average of both meals consumed and ingredients consumed, there was no need to have the pawn look for specific meals to satisfy their variety - this will come naturally simply as they eat stuff.

v1.03:

Tweak. Ingredients in nutrient paste will not count towards ingredient variety. Nutrient paste meals will just count as a single meat and a single ingredient

Fix: pawns that don't have the variety need should not have the thought either (eg VE Awakened Androids)
