mod stopped working after a few days

Mod works fine, but there is another variant of this mod which basically refreshes the timer instead of adjusting the variable, by going into the .lua and coding in an lil' script that simply resets all timers to their max values every time the timer ticks down.
This had made it so modded foodstuffs never rot much in the same way this one does.
Mod owner said he used python to open the rotting.lua and add in the script.

I feel bad for the author. You shouldn't have to keep repeating yourself over and over just because someone is too lazy to read the rest of the comments.

Had some ribs cooked for my space cowboy to eat on the way through his adventures. Went to actually eat it, and the words 'smells rotten' made me feel bad for my space cowboy. So I came here to get this mod, so my space cowboy no longer has to go hungry because of food going bad. Thank you for making this mod.

@Eleven, it works as nothing has changed. You most likely just have a mod conflict.

Doesn't work
senornacho  [author] 5 Jan, 2022 @ 5:28pm 
As I've written in the comments multiple times, if it stops working or doesn't work it's likely due to another mod you have installed. The game hasn't been updated in years.

it doesnt seem to work rn?
The Bird of Anarchy 6 Aug, 2021 @ 9:50pm 
huh, maybe its something to do with frackin then, which is lame because food spoils too fast

@mokahTGS & @Catboy:

I let the game run for over two hours. The food that was already in my inventory didn't change and neither did the food I picked up while waiting. The mod hasn't changed and the game hasn't changed since the last time someone said it wasn't working. As has been the case time and again; you likely have another mod installed that is conflicting with this one.
The Bird of Anarchy 6 Aug, 2021 @ 5:47pm 
as the guy below said, it doesnt work anymore, after an hour or so of playing, the mod just, stops and my food starts rotting
MokahTGS 6 Aug, 2021 @ 4:03pm 
This no longer works.
cmotes 23 Jul, 2021 @ 10:45am

cmotes 23 Jul, 2021 @ 10:45am 
thank you

i literally had to unsub from this one because as soon as i subbed to it, i had bad loading/lag and weird mechanics. now unsubbed, all is well. why in hell would a rot mod cause this much bs? can't imagine it, but i'll resub again some day u_u

alternate name for this : begone ROT
ckjr 10 Aug, 2019 @ 9:15pm 
It seems that the Improved Food Containers is overriding it, seeing that it also modifies rotting.lua.
5thRankInnerDingDongTheFishtClan 17 Jun, 2019 @ 10:19pm 
Is this compatible with 1.4?
senornacho  [author] 31 Dec, 2018 @ 12:26am 
@CoNN01r.
My guess is that either that mod or some other one is overriding mine.
AsbestosIP 30 Dec, 2018 @ 3:42pm 
I have an issue, I have a mod that tells eextra info on everything.It also tells me the time left till food rots... but when the timer runs out the food still rots. any suggestions?
Azriel 3 Aug, 2018 @ 5:07pm 
So I have an issue. I have the slime race mod installed and in order to craft goo, I need rotten food. But this mod prevents that. I dont want everything to rot, but need a way to obtain rotten food still. Any suggestions?
Regicide 2 Feb, 2018 @ 2:09pm 
Well, dunno what happen. But after getting annoyed by plenty of bugs and conflicts between "Build your own Ship" mods, I wiped out all mods, added up to 20 Avali Mods and some old ones (like Rot-B-Gone) and now it works fine. *Shrug* Happy End. :skyecute:
Regicide 31 Jan, 2018 @ 12:29pm 
Yeah this one. Damn it. Then I have no clue whats wrong. I don't use any other mods that affect crops/food. But they still rot. Hmm :/
senornacho  [author] 31 Jan, 2018 @ 12:17pm 
@Regicide:
This one? https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=729427436
That's the one I use and haven't had any problems.
Regicide 31 Jan, 2018 @ 3:50am 
Hey there, sadly his mod also don't work for me. Question: When the rot timer is removed, will food be stackable? Because I'm using a mod that makes food stackable. Maybe thats a conflict?
PinDaD SS2 9 Dec, 2017 @ 6:39pm 
Nice, You said when u installed it it stopped and when you uninstalled it it started back up again? thats awesome. I can change it whenever I like. Great job =)
Magebrawler Aura 30 Sep, 2017 @ 10:55am 
Not anymore because stupid reasons.
Aida 27 Jul, 2017 @ 6:55am 
It looks like the mod Classic Food Mechanics fixes this
senornacho  [author] 26 Jul, 2017 @ 8:13pm 
Without knowing which other mods you may be subscribed to it's impossible to know what the conflict may be. I don't use Frackin Universe personally. Anything that modifies rotting.lua will cause conflicts unfortunately.
Aida 26 Jul, 2017 @ 7:09pm 
I'm using Frackin' Universe and a wide variety of other mods. I don't know which one is causing a conflict, but food is rotting for me. This is the only food-related mod I've subscribed to
Kaboose 19 Jun, 2017 @ 7:56pm 
My timer is also still ticking down.
senornacho  [author] 12 Jun, 2017 @ 5:52pm 
I don't know what to tell you. I unsubscribed from this mod and my food started rotting. I resubscribed and the rotting stopped. I'm on 1.3. You've mentioned a "timer," if you're using a mod that alters the way that rot is displayed (and if you're using this mod then you don't need it) then that is probably overriding my mod. Anything that alters rotting.lua can conflict with this mod. Basically, check anything that modifies food in any way. The only mod that doesn't conflict is Food Stack and I know because I use it.
Magebrawler Aura 12 Jun, 2017 @ 10:34am 
Tried doing a clean install. More things were changed, but most of the food items still had a timer, including vanilla.
Magebrawler Aura 11 Jun, 2017 @ 6:20pm 
Yeah, I think it is 1.3.
Magebrawler Aura 10 Jun, 2017 @ 9:50pm 
Can't see anything that'd override this mod.
senornacho  [author] 10 Jun, 2017 @ 8:44pm 
@Magebrawler Aura: I unpacked the latest build and the file is identical to the one in the current mod. I also wandered around my home world picking fruit and killing critters for meat as well as pulling food from storage. I'm not seeing any decay. If you have any other mods its possible that one of them is overriding my mod.
Magebrawler Aura 10 Jun, 2017 @ 7:11pm 
Yeah, seems like it's borked.
Magebrawler Aura 10 Jun, 2017 @ 7:00pm 
I think 1.3 broke this mod. Rot timer's back.
senornacho  [author] 13 May, 2017 @ 12:51pm 
No idea. If that mod changes the same file I changed (listed above) then probably not.
Dalton 13 May, 2017 @ 10:59am 
is this compatable with frackin universe?
HeckHammer 26 Mar, 2017 @ 4:40pm 
k thx
senornacho  [author] 26 Mar, 2017 @ 3:45pm 
Not sure what to tell you. Are you saying that it's giving food poisoning when you eat it? I just cooked a couple meat and ate them and they gave me the "Full Belly" moodlet. I'm guessing it's another mod you have installed that's conflicting with this one.
HeckHammer 26 Mar, 2017 @ 8:36am 
i didnt try any raw meats but the cooked meat i did all of them and it was the same
senornacho  [author] 25 Mar, 2017 @ 9:31pm 
@Argentum: Might be a conflict with another mod you have installed. Is it only cooked meat or are other meals affected?
HeckHammer 25 Mar, 2017 @ 6:05pm 
for some reason whenever i eat a cooked meat it acts like its spoiled
jedorstar 2 Jan, 2017 @ 6:00am 
fantastic, i wanna stay hunger bar to make a bit real, but the "trash" system for food items is very terrible to a game, especially a game need mining deeper and deeper, thx for your effort
GhostFS 11 Aug, 2016 @ 10:12am 
OK... i have seen that there is an addon to add staking and remove rotting to the IFD.
So this is suggested for people that whant to remove the rot only.
GhostFS 11 Aug, 2016 @ 9:48am 
There is a way to make this work in combination with otehr food modification mods like Improved Food Descriptions or Staking food?
senornacho  [author] 9 Aug, 2016 @ 6:47pm 
@talon: Good to hear it's working for you again!
