this mod will overwrite the icebox contianer requirement, making you unable to place thermos in icebox

does adding the compatible = true for hamlet work with this mod as well?

Can you please help me to write the simple mod to make Hamlet gummy slug not spoilable, so i can keep it as my pet forever? I suppose it's similar to this mode. I really will miss my slug if it spoiles :(

for anyone who want to use this mod on shipwrecked, you can add shipwrecked_compatible = true" to modinfo.lua like the person below said. it works fine BUT i've notice a bug with thermal stones. somehow, if this mod enabled in your world you'll not be able to freeze thermal stone in the ice box anymore, which is really suck for dry season. i've only found this bug so far so use it with your own risk!

Why the sanity loss? Crystallized honey is best honey ;(
Rachel Wulf 10 Sep, 2017 @ 2:06pm 
Will this ever be updated for Shipwrecked?

Ya like jazz?

@Mouse Thank you for this great mod, not just does it make the game make so much more sense, it actually got me into putting a tiny bit of locally made wild flower amber honey into my regular diet since mid 2016 when I hadn't thought about honey in years.

I was wondering, and I know it's likely a large investment of time but is there any chance you might be able to port this mod into Don't Starve Together? Just Wednesday I had a friend complain about how stupid it was that her honey went bad and I told her I had a mod that addressed that but it was only accessible on my single player runs.

add "shipwrecked_compatible = true" to modinfo.lua
tested works fine

A really great mod. Thank you!

to the person below: pretty sure ash fertilizer and this mod are by the same person
Somnazul 22 Mar, 2016 @ 10:52pm 
Between you and the person who made ash a fertilizer I feel people are understanding how things SHOULD work. Thank you for this. I'm new to the game and I immediately thought this when the honey began to "spoil"

would be nice to see this updated, but i think the author is banned :/ shame, he had some great mods
Darkhero 15 Dec, 2015 @ 9:21am 
Would love to see this updated for new DLC =D

I LOL'D When I saw the thumbnail!
CookieguyAR 28 Aug, 2015 @ 5:10pm 
Can you cook it while the honey is only stale or spoiled (red)? Or do you have to wait for it to crystallize?
BountyHunter 4 Jul, 2015 @ 5:00am 
Valid point, however I tend to think of it as patience rather than laziness. I may sub and make the change for myself. All-in-all; quality concept.

P.S. I do enjoy steak tartare
🐭  [author] 3 Jul, 2015 @ 4:59pm 
I make it a habit to not reward laziness. If you let honey fully spoil and can't be bothered to cook it before eating it, then a slight sanity loss is justified. It's the same thing with raw meat. Some people might like eating raw meat IRL but there's still sanity loss in game for it. The sanity debuff will remain unchanged.
BountyHunter 3 Jul, 2015 @ 11:53am 
I too oppose the sanity loss from eating crystallized honey. I actually prefer my honey that way, and as such is the reason I have not subscribed.
PrideGroupIsEvil 30 Jun, 2015 @ 12:39pm 
i agree with EtherSword, you should rename this mod or work on the image or both because i too have overlooked this mod several times. upon reading the description however it's not bad at all.

i still wont use it until i beat the game at least once without balancing changes though, and as unique and small of a change to the balance this brings, it's still a change.
Kwynn 25 May, 2015 @ 3:34pm 
I like adding crystallized honey... Why the sanity loss? My character is supposed to represent me,so he should be like a better version of me!
Levantina 2 May, 2015 @ 12:52pm 
Great! I have always thought that the spoiling rate for honey was stupid too, as I also knew that honey doesn't spoil over time Cool mod, dude! :p2cube:
Snazzy Dancer 22 Apr, 2015 @ 10:20am 
Amazing nice job ;)
EtherSword 22 Feb, 2015 @ 2:28pm 
I almost overlooked this mod. Judging from the title, it sounded like you just removed the perishable timer on it but not necessarily that, but instead made it more unique and interesting.
Takchiki 11 Feb, 2015 @ 3:05pm 
Again, thank you very much!
🐭  [author] 11 Feb, 2015 @ 4:48am 
@Takchiki
It's fixed now. Sorry again.
Takchiki 10 Feb, 2015 @ 5:25pm 
Another problem: I'm playing the expansion version of the game and I can't store the Thermal Stone in the Icebox. If I disable this mod, I can store it in the Icebox again.
Takchiki 8 Feb, 2015 @ 2:27pm 
Thank you very much!
🐭  [author] 8 Feb, 2015 @ 1:36pm 
@Takchiki
I fixed it. You should receive an update any minute now. Sorry about that.
Takchiki 8 Feb, 2015 @ 1:21pm 
Yes.
🐭  [author] 8 Feb, 2015 @ 1:16pm 
@Takchiki
By any chance did they disappear while in the ice box?
Takchiki 8 Feb, 2015 @ 12:40pm 
I am playing the vanilla version of the game and my Honey disappears instead of turning into the prefab "crystallized honey."

@ [#!].mouse

I like your realistic mods. i wanted to run something by you. maybe you may want to make this happen, i dont think anyone has. We are on an island that has no coconuts. bananas would be cool too.

@Virplexer
No I'm afraid not. Honey doesn't spoil because it slowly and naturally produces small amounts of hydrogen peroxide which kills the bacteria that normally breaks down food and makes it spoil. (Hence the bandages made from honey in DS.) No preservatives are necessary at all. If the honey you bought from a store has added preservatives, then it's likely the honey was cut with something to help lower the price. For example, corn syrup. What you're probably thinking of is the filtering and heat treatment process many honey distributors use to make their honey "pure" and help keep honey from crystallizing. This process also dilutes the flavor and destroys a lot of living enzymes and such. Because of that, the popular belief is that raw honey is healthier than heat treated honey. Regardless, no, properly stored honey doesn't spoil. It just becomes less fit for human consumption as the decades, or even centuries, pass.
Virplexer 10 Jan, 2015 @ 8:29pm 
Honey does spoil... well natural honey. Honey thats bought from stores doesn't spoil because of added perservatives. But in game, you can't add any, therefore it spoils.
Skittles 2 Jan, 2015 @ 1:39am 
smoke to calm bees, maybe put them to sleep like a pan flute, would be a good mod
great idea jintoya! =3

Thank you everyone for your praise. I hope you're enjoying it. :p2chell:

This is fantastic. Thanks!
Spooky Soo 27 Jul, 2014 @ 10:41am 
Thanks for this one too, Mouse. I never understood why honey was given the properties it has by Klei.
jintoya 3 Jul, 2014 @ 11:03am 
and as a honey loving person i yet again find myself thanking [#!].mouse for the hard work put into this mod.
might be another good mod to make for honey bees and the like if you got a smoke gun thing to use on bee nests, collect the honey and incapacitate the bees, just a suggestion.
thank you for this mod again.

The thumbnail for this is hilarious
🐭  [author] 28 Jun, 2014 @ 3:13am 
@mikechmi
Agreed. Honey is one of my favorite foods. I've looked into raising honeybees in the past though. It seems a lot like the whole process is at the mercy of the weather. It would be cool to try out though.

@Maltoroy
Yes it is.
mikechmi 28 Jun, 2014 @ 12:22am 
Thanks, my grandfather used to raise honeybees and I picked it up for awhile. As strange as it sounds one of the things that really irked me about this game was that they had honey spoil!
Maltoroy 21 May, 2014 @ 10:22pm 
Im guessing that the mod is RoG compatible?
