Not Overhead Meal

Description
Ever wondered why when pawns face north to eat, the meal looks to be placed overhead?



Function
  • Change the placement of meals at "eating with table".

  • Meals will no longer be drawn above the pawn's head when eating facing north.
    (In vanilla, meal was always displayed above the pawn when the pawn carried and ate the meal.)

  • Now pawn places the meal slightly closer to self when put it on the table. That is to ensure that the meals do not full overlap when face-to-face eating with someone. (There are still some overlaps, but beer in the fourth screenshot is a good example of non-overlap.)

  • It's technically a very simple patch, so the performance impact is negligible.

Support
Gastronomy
Gastronomy didn't originally place meal overhead, but the position of meal wasn't placed properly on the table, so added a patch to fix.
Now customers will also place their meals properly on the table and eat. (see last screenshot)


Recommended
Graphic Chair Overhaul 2
Add a backrest to the chair facing north so that looks like the pawn sit properly on the chair.

Update for 1.6. In 1.6, "Overhead meals" will still occur in some rare cases, so this mod is effective.

@Kyokui Avarus Ah sorry, I took that as a negative comment about this mod...

@si-cafe by reading the mod's description, you make the game unplayable without it

@Kyokui Avarus Please clarify the reason.

I thought this mod was unnecessary in version 1.5, but it seems that in rare cases the meal is placed overhead (see last screenshot), so this mod is still useful in version 1.5.
