[KYD] JoyKind: Caffeine

Description
I have decided to leave the RimWorld modding scene. Anyone may freely update this or any other [KYD] mod. All credit must be preserved. Original description below with images unembedded:

JoyKind: Caffeine
No longer shall you suffer "Chemical consumption" being constantly maxed out just because your pawns are drinking their daily coffees. This simple mod not only makes the game slightly easier, but slightly harder at the same time. How so, you ask? Easier: Caffeine has been given its own JoyKind and JoyGiver, meaning pawns can sit back, relax, and snort a line of yayo while drinking a latte after spending 16 hours digging out a new warehouse from the mountainside, without wasting recreation points. Harder: Caffeine no longer counts as a "Chemical" for Chemical Fascination or Chemical Interest, meaning your drug-seekers will now actually need to seek drugs. Totally compatible with anything that adds more caffeine to the game, provided they are also using a chemical with the text "Caffeine". Probably. Do let me know if I broke anything, because as is standard for a KYD mod: Something's broken.
Confirmed Compatibility:
Coffee and caffeine items from these mods are known to function. Without any of the below mods, the mod does nothing - but you shouldn't get any red errors! There may be more mods lurking on the workshop that I did not test - they should still function as long as the text "Caffeine" is contained in the ChemicalDef.
Confirmed Incompatibility:
  • VGP Vegetable Garden
    Does not cause any errors, but VGP's coffee (caffeine) isn't actually a drug, so this mod has no effect on it.

Want them all? Use JoyKind: Condensed, otherwise piecemeal from the below list:

Possible to get a 1.5 update?

I just came across this mod and it looks great! Does it also allow teetotalers and drug-averse ideologies to consume caffeine without being upset?

Ah ok :D I was not sure i VGP used chemical consumption ^^
Still a nice mod which I will use for the other addictive coffees :D

Hmm, I just checked VGP - their coffee is not a drug! So no, does not function with this.



Technical:
Rather than using a ChemicalDef to apply the coffee and tea effects, VGP just has drinking the beverage give you a hediff called "caffeine". The JoyKind for these items is Gluttonous, or Food Consumption (chocolate, insect jelly) but because they are not drugs there is nothing for me to support, and this mod will have no effect on VGP.
