Shearing Is Not Killing

In 1 collection by Droseran
(Mostly) Vanilla Farming
18 items
Description
I recommend instead using Advanced Agriculture as it fixes this and many other bugs/issues with vanilla agriculture.

Removes the [IMPLIES_ANIMAL_KILL] token from the wool of sheep, llamas, and alpacas. Wool is obtained by shearing these animals, not by killing them like the hair of other animals. Silk is similarly obtained without killing spiders, and does not have this tag in vanilla.

This mod should be compatible with other mods. This mod does not cut anything from these creatures, only creates a new material (wool) and replaces the hair material and tissue of these creatures with wool.

Thanks for the comment about that! That was a recent change, I forgot to update the description of this mod to mention it's included by default.

Should be noted that this is already included in Advanced Agriculture

Indeed it is. That would have been a better name for this mod, lol.

Shearing is caring.

Thank you for taking the time to answer. I may give that a try next time I get a chance.

No, this doesn't change the default wool object. To change the default wool material, you'd have to replace the entire vanilla materials mod, which would make this mod incompatible with a lot of other workshop mods. You could pretty easily use this mod as a template for those modded animals, though, either changing them the way this mod does, or adding this mod's material as their defined hair material.

If you modded other animals to produce wool would this do the same for their wool? Does it change the default wool object?

That sounds like a conflict with another mod, or a faulty Steam workshop download. I tested it a few times on my install (existing and new worlds) and it's still working normally with no errors. Let me know if you find that it's conflicting with another mod, I will try to make it more compatible.

Seems to break in 50.10, I received the following errors, as well as regular game crashes.

Removing this mod stopped the error logs, and stopped the crashes too.

```
SHEEP:Unrecognized Material Template: WOOL_TEMPLATE
LLAMA:Unrecognized Material Template: WOOL_TEMPLATE
ALPACA:Unrecognized Material Template: WOOL_TEMPLATE
*** Error(s) finalizing the creature SHEEP
undefined local creature material set to default: SHEEP HAIR
*** Error(s) finalizing the creature LLAMA
undefined local creature material set to default: LLAMA HAIR
*** Error(s) finalizing the creature ALPACA
undefined local creature material set to default: ALPACA HAIR
```
