Mod «Animals Forage» for Rimworld (v1.2 - 1.4)
This mod allows various animals to forage for food using some of the Animal Behaviours available through Vanilla Expanded Framework.
Hungry:
Each animal can have 1 "dig when hungry" comp, so I had to chose what food fit best.
These animals will get this food from any diggable terrain.
Vanilla:
- Grizzly Bears will forage for berries,
- Ducks will forage for fish, (they're Omnivorous now, no need for my other patch)
- Chickens will forage for bugs, (insect meat)(they're also Omnivorous now, no need for my other patch)
- Arctic foxes will forage for hare meat, (that they stored back in summer)
- Cobras will forage for rat meat, (they found a burrow)
VAE:
- (1.3 only)
- Crocodile will forage for fish,
- Platypus will forage for bugs,
- Otters will forage for fish,
- Black Bears will forage for berries,
- Rattlesnakes will forage for rat meat,
- Hedgehogs are omnivores now and will forage for bugs,
- Badgers will forage for bugs,
- Alligators will forage for fish,
- Anacondas will forage for fish,
- Erin's Friendly Ferrets
- Ferrets will forage for rat meat
Daily:
Each animal can also have 1 "dig periodically" comp.
Pigs will dig up 10 Mushrooms every day. (truffles anyone?)
Wild Boars will dig up 5 Mushrooms every day. (not as well trained)
(only when tamed)
FAQ
Q: Does this mean these animals won't need other sources of food?
A: These values are quite small and these animals will still eat other foods, predators will still hunt other animals.
Q: Does this mean ducks and chickens will hunt rats and squirrels?
A: No, being a predator is separate from being a carnivore.
Q: Rockhopper penguins from endangered!
A: Both VAE Penguins already do this, that was the inspiration for this mod.
Q: Pangolins from endangered!
A: VAE Pangolin already have a unique "eats ants when hungry" feature, so I didn't touch it.
