Description
Colonists grab meals from animals, or each other, if needed - if there is nothing else available.

---

"I'm so hungry, but there is no food"

"You dumbass there's food on the muffalo"

"... muffalos scare me."

---

Note that 1.3 did add "Food from animals" But not "Food from that hoarder Jim who's holding all the caravan's food for some reason"

Doesn't need new save, doesn't affect saves

Shouldn't conflict with Smarter Food Selection.

---

Do you want medicine from your inventory? Smart Medicine

Do you want to sleep in a bedroll from your inventory? Use Bedrolls

Do you want to build from your inventory? Build From Inventory

Despite the issues I'll give this mod a shot. If they chase tamers across the map, desperate to find food, idk why I'd be wasting food on taming animals to begin with. You can just draft the colonist and drop the food in their inventory.

After a bunch of testing and searching, it appears your mod is partially involved in the issue, although not in the way we think.

Apparently, in one of the latest rimworld update, the pawn food choice algorithm was modified, and TLDR regular pawns won't eat raw food until "ravenously" hungry (to avoid mood debuffs). More info here: https://www.reddit.com/r/RimWorld/comments/18lrltb/psa_pawn_food_choices_are_not_what_they_used_to_be/

So pawns not being able to eat raw food from the storage regularly is normal. However, that process is bypassed when the raw food is in the inventory (due to some mod, or vanilla?) and can start eating it as soon as they're hungry, hence why they keep on following the tamers (or haulers). Without this mod, if they don't have it in their inventory, they continue on their day until they become ravenously hungry and start looking for raw food.

An issue (similar to the tamer's below) is that when a pawn has in its inventory the best food available (berries for instance) and only raw (fungus) food is available, my pawns will track and harass him until they get hold of it. That's a tough problem to solve.

this is reeeally good, but need to make so that people currently taming arent able to be gradded from.

I had a colonist taming, and people following him outside.

Doesn't seem to have any effect on vehicles

Does anyone have confirmation that this works with VE: Vehicles or Rimthunder?

I wonder how this works with the new vehicles mod.

Turning it of made the tribe run a lot better, which is a shame, as I find the mod useful. My guess is an issue with raw food.
Uuugggg  [author] 28 Nov, 2023 @ 2:24pm 
I would not blame this mod for that
Bene El 28 Nov, 2023 @ 2:23pm 
Well, if they can't find the food they are standing on, that is an issue, is it not? If no one is carrying food (aka taming an animal) there is no issue, they take food from the storage just fine. But as soon as one pawn goes to tame he's followed by a lemming train...
