Large Autofeeder

Description
A large Auto-Feeder with twice the capacity. However it can only be used with basic food items: Orange Pellet, Green Pellet, Mussels and Cockles. Available at Rank 12.

This mod also contains an example of the "modifyCost" variable which allows you to modify the cost of an object from the one the game calculates. Here, I use it to make the Auto-Feeder less expensive than it otherwise would be to account for the limitation on which food items it can dispense.

For people playing the GOG version, here is a manual download version[drive.google.com].

You're very welcome :)

Thanks, I'll give that a try! I appreciate your patience and help, I'm not really a coder by any means (clearly lol!) but determined to make it work. :)

The capacity multiplier has to be inside the autofeeder brackets like this:

"attraction":{"limit1Visit":true},"uglyEquipment":{},
"autofeeder":{
"maxSkillNumber":3,
"capacityMultiplier":2, // This is multiplied by the item's "howManyInPack" variable to give capacity.
},

So I tried to place the code exactly as you suggested, though I'm probably doing something wrong as it's just completely deleted the item from the store now, RIP. I placed it like this:

"attraction":{"limit1Visit":true},"uglyEquipment":{},
"autofeeder":{
"maxSkillNumber":3,
},
"capacityMultiplier":2, // This is multiplied by the item's "howManyInPack" variable to give capacity.

But yeah, just yeets the item into the abyss.

Thank you so much!!! Going to retry it now, the code I edited DID allow me to of course use other foods that didn't require skill. You're awesome.

Add:
"maxSkillNumber":3,

Within the autofeeder block e.g.
"autofeeder":{
"maxSkillNumber":3,
},

And it will allow autofeeding of skilled animals too. :)

So, I was able to edit the code but it still isn't pulling any items that require skill. :( The object itself still says something like, "cannot be used with items that require skill" even after deleting the code as you suggested. I see another mod when I typed "feeder" into the workshop, and someone had asked a similar question to the person who edited this mod as the baseline. They suggested that the "skill" thing is hard-coded into the item itself. Any suggestions?

@Nyx Saighdiuir That's great to hear. Thank you for your kind words and support. :)
Nyx Saighdiuir 10 Jul, 2024 @ 4:45pm 
Yeah that was a lot easier than I thought it'd be lol thanks so much, that was very helpful and simple. :)

Thank you so much for the prompt response, I'll give that a go. :) Seems easy enough. Love the game btw, going to be leaving a review! After playing, there are a few suggestions I'd love to provide that may help optimize things. Seeing how active you are with your game made me really happy, so I had gone straight to buying the base game with all DLC from the get-go. Cheers! :)
