Updated for 1.6. No changes made. Let me know if any bugs pop up.

I think this mod goes well with one I created and added a link pointing to it on my description: Hunting Grounds: Prey Overpopulation Control

Updated for 1.5. No changes made. Let me know if any bugs pop up.

Would be cool if there was a setting to give boom critters an effective body size offset for the purposes of predator hunting eligibility, so large predators (which can almost always survive the explosion) hunt boom animals, but small predators won't kill themselves hunting boomrats.

KABEEM

@Alexander The Great, sorry, missed the comment. But yes, it's a catch all that should apply to any animals that are explosive, even from mods.

@Alexander The Great Considering that velcroboy refers to the affected animals as "boom critters" and links to the version of Boom Mod that includes all animals that go "Boom!" I'd call it a safe bet to say "yes".

mr dev,
does ur mod include boomalops from Expanded mods as well?

like the australia one

Updated for 1.4

Again, this is a 1-line patch mod. The comment in question is old and not relevant anymore.

"Also... I see that this mod performs a whopping stealth nerf to the MAGA Hat (not sure what mod this is from) without telling anybody."

Is he lying?

What are you even talking about? This is a 1-line patch mod that does what it says in the title.

Adding nerfs to other modded items in your code lol wth is wrong with you

Ah, never mind. I see this mod patches the <canBePredatorPrey> tag so all such animals become potential prey. In contrast, 'Boom Boom Is Prey' individually patches the Boomrat, the Boomalope, as well as the BoomBat ("Vanilla Animals Expanded — Australia" mod).

Also... I see that this mod performs a whopping stealth nerf to the MAGA Hat (not sure what mod this is from) without telling anybody.

There's no practical difference between this and 'Boom Boom Is Prey', is there?

Oh my god, we have so many boomrats and the predators keep trying to hunt us instead. Maybe this'll help.

Haha, hope it works out for you. Enjoy the fireworks

Hopefully this, with another mod to increase the predators that spawn on the map, will help deal with my boomrat problem. Thanks to the mod that allows them to reproduce in the wild I have maybe a hundred or so spawning all over the place. I need something to help weed them out. So thanks for the mod.

you the mvp.

Updated for 1.3

Attention: I will absolutely be updating all my mods to 1.3. I want to take the time to look at the new code first in order to make sure the code changes are implemented correctly for the new version, as well as make any balance changes, and to implement any relevant new features into my mods,

The upcoming week is going to be busy for me already as the busy season for my real job is just beginning and goes pretty heavy through the fall and holiday season. But I will try to find the time as soon as I am able. My goal is to have all my mods ready for the official release in a couple weeks.

note I will be maintaining support for 1.2 after the update to 1.3 but I a have already moved on from 1.1 or older, so, those versions will not be maintained unless they are naturally compatible.

Thanks for your patience.

BOOM.

This mod does fit in well with mods that make boom-critters not explode if dying from non-fire melee/pre-gunpowder weapons

What numbskull requested this? It's like a giant red button that says "Do not push." I know it's a bad idea, but my mouse won't stop trying to click subscribe.
