I really miss when "Classic Food Mechanics" was on the Steam Workshop.

If anyone is interested, i made a patch of this and Improved Descriptions:
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1362697615

Thx @Count Orlok ...i had this problem. There is always a manual mod folder instalation with priority in meta to be ajusted.

is it compatible with "slow food rot"?

Author of "Food Spoil Bars" inform this is not compatible, if anyone was interested.

Thank you Count Orlok!

If you use both Food Rot Info and Improved Food Descriptions and the food keeps a white border:
This seems to be caused by the sequence these mods are loaded by Starbound.
It works for me, if Food Rot Info is loaded after Improved Food Descriptions :
- Unsubscribe both Food Rot Info and Improved Food Descriptions
- Resubscribe to Improved Food Descriptions
- Wait until the mod was downloaded by Steam
- Resubscrybe to Food Rot Info

(This post replaces a previous one with a less reliable method to manipulate the mod load order. If there is a better way to do so, I would like to hear about it.)

Something went wrong with the colours for me after the update. For example, a product will be safe for more than 2 hours, but it's white. Though the time info is still correct. So, it's still very useful, but it's also quite uncomfortable at the same time

Tested it myself. Unfortunately, this mod has no affect on StarChef Redux. Real shame.

Can this affect the foods added by Starchef Redux?

I don't run any other mods, and this still works for me on the latest update. Thank you so much for this mod, it's such a QoL improvement for eating.

@graublau
after un-installing CN More Farming Mods,
nothing changed. still, sadly, didn't work.

I'm not sure. I actually don't play much Starbound, the only mod I've heard of is FU.

I freshly cooked some stuff, went to the planet to check for updates, but it didn't happen :/
besides FU I've got the CN More Farming Mods, might that be the problem?

Hm, I'll check again, maybe something else is hindering - thanks for the feedback!

Hmm, I made this mod specifically while playing FU. Maybe the latest update broke it? I can't look at it now. Is anyone else having issues?

I'd love to be using this mod, but it seems not to be working with FU - any chance on that changing? :/

it doesn't deathninja, I have both running fine at once

May I ask why it conflicts with this one?
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=731354142

example :
currently it sorts :
common (white), then, legendary (purple >3hours), then blue (rare <3hours), then green & yellow
which means when cooking white are used then legendary then rare

This mod is awesome allows sorting foods by remaining time
however while the order & color make sense for consistency with the game at large
it turns out starbound doesn't sort by increased rarity value

why is this important ?
cause the order it's sorted in the inventory is the order in which ingredients are taken for cooking.

Seems to be broken ATM.

This is quite handy, especially when you have lots of food on you!

My only feedback is:
-----------------------------------
White
< 5 Minutes
-----------------------------------
It would make more sense to me if this one is red, like alert/urgent about to expire?

Thanks again!

Love mod thanks :D

@iheartbeer I don't know that mods work on the unstable versions.

I looooove this mod, but for some reason it doesn't install for the unstable version (yay v1.1!) Does anyone have any insight into why this could be? I'm pretty new to modding this game and modding through Steam.

haha I get it... blue cheese... haha

No. But your food borders will stay what they were before you removed the mod. Newly acquired food will look normal though.

What if i'll start using it and then uninstall? Will the game files become corrupted?

This is a very good mod ! It's kinda annoying to always look at the food one by one to see how fresh they are ! Good job

In theory: It is client-side, but if you give your food to someone that doesn't have the mod, they might see some of the old rot info, but it won't update as long as they're holding it.

Client side mod, or does everyone else need it as well?

bro , why u do not work in this company , bruh ? because you are too good for it...

i feel sorry for molly trough

How about when the food is in a fridge?

SO GOOD

Ohh, I had no idea that this was your mod!

Is this in game time, or real time?

SO GOOD

hi folks, how do you like this mod?

Okay. Thank you. :)

@Sofi Yeah I realised it later that it actually was gone... any new food didn't have the colours on it, only the old ones I already had :) Sorry, I should've checked better!

Again, lovely mod, makes my space-life easier :P

nice but not fully compatible with Food Stack
(no crash, just do not works together perfectly)

Are you sure the mod is still there? The information like border colour is stored on each item, and by default it is not changed by rotting. Try crafting or buying some new food and see if it is normal.

Delete the folder: steamapps\workshop\content\211820\747784448

I have a bit of a problem. I unsubscribed your mod but it is still there. I deleted the whole workshop-folder even... How do I get rid of it? :(
It's a lovely mod but I just needed starbound to be mod-less for a moment to test something...

Is this a client side only mod or does everyone on the server need to have this?

I rate this 9,000,000 stars.

Could you pls move the info about expire times bit up?

Looks Noice. xd
