Deep Water Fishing

I think shallow water only freezes during the actual winter season, and won't thaw even if warmed, but that may be only if the tiles are not in an indoor space, I'm not certain.

I did some testing on Dev mode (All DLC no mods) and crashlanded pawns on an ice sheet. I then evented 10 cold snaps dropping the temperature down to -200c and waited. Eventually the pawns all froze to death (even with the bluefur winter gear I gave them XD) but the shallows never froze over - neither in the pockets inland, nor the coastal water.

Where/what zone does this mod apply? Incidentally, if a tile's waters do freeze over, could one not just build a little hovel, raise the temperate inside and fish where it thaws out?

This always bothered me ever since 1.6 hit. Deep water fishing is like, a huge thing IRL. It made absolutely no sense that you could only fish in waist-deep water. So thank you.

OR you can place down a bunch of heavy bridges heat the new floorless room to 21C or greater and fish away in little ice fishing huts.

But good on you making a mod for something vexing

Is this EPOE compatible? Can I give an octopus 8 advanced bionic arms?
Great mod that really should be base game, makes me want to do an eskimo tribal run.

@Ymir True. I actually secretly gave all the fish armor values and custom weapons so this mod is not CE compatible. /s

@Devonte, Yes but its important to know. - What if the fish come out of the water with Glock 17s? - Then I would really need to know if its CE Compatible, or else my game could crash.

@noderp47 How long will it take then? Weeks? Or months?

Is this CE Compatible?

@Azure this is possible in my experience if you just wait long enough, fish will spawn
Greypz  [author] 17 Jul @ 12:27pm 
@Azure I have no plans to try that at the moment. I think it probably would be possible, but that's way past my current level of skill.

would it be possible to add a function that allows fishing in dev spawn water too?

This mod is awesome mate, one of a QOLI

I can see this being especially useful for sea ice runs.
Thanks for the mod.
