IceWorld: Feast or Famine

Part of the IceWorld mod collection, which adds vanilla-friendly features to enhance the "always winter" gameplay experience.


The "Feast or Famine" mod adds content relating to the nutritional challenges of living in a food-scarce environment. If you've ever found yourself starving out on the ice and wishing that you had more options to help stave off hunger, this is the mod for you.

New Mechanics for Overeating

- Colonists and animals that overeat will gain the 'overfed' condition, temporarily reducing their hunger rate and movement speed
- Continued overeating will result in pain and vomiting
- Food binges should seem more realistic, and small animals will not be as wasteful when eating large meals

Overcooked Meals

- Incompetent cooks have a 60% chance to overcook a meal when they otherwise would have made a food-poisoned meal
- Overcooked meals taste bad and offer less nutrition, but have the benefit of not causing food poisoning
- Should result in fewer meals causing food poisoning due to cooking skill (but risk from dirty kitchen is unaffected)

Animal Food Bowls

- Players can construct food bowls to manage their pets' diets without having to rely on allowed areas
- Players can specify which foods should be hauled to a food bowl and which animal types can consume from it
- Should allow players to feed pets responsibly without having to restrict them to certain areas of their base


This mod is in active development - stay tuned for more updates!

Compatibility:
- This mod fully replaces the 'Binge Responsibly' mod and should be compatible with its saved games
