[1.6] Odyssey Fishing Is Fun By Nebs

Description
Fishing Is Fun!!

Have you ever wondered why fishing in RimWorld doesn't count as recreation?

How can you go fishing for hours and not feel any joy from it??

This is a mod designed for Rimworld, 1.6 and the Odyssey DLC.

This is intended to make the Odyssey DLC’s fishing activity count as recreation and grant a mood buff after a long fishing session.

Features:
  1. Recreation Need Gain: While the pawn is actively fishing, their recreation (joy) need increases steadily (similar to playing chess or other joy activities).
  2. Mood Buff: If the pawn spent at least 3 in-game hours (2,500 ticks) fishing continuously, they receive a +3 "Pleasant Fishing Trip" mood thought lasting 6 hours.
  3. Configurable: You can enable/disable the mood buff or recreation, and you can tweak the buff reward time in the mod settings.

Frequently Asked Questions:

  • What kind of recreation does the pawn passively receive? Answer: This mod does not introduce a new recreation type. It currently uses the `Meditative` type of recreation (JoyDef). To clarify, this doesn't mean the pawn meditates while fishing, it's just a solitary and peaceful type of recreation, same as stargazing or going on a walk.

Is there a way to make pawns just go fishing for recreation even when not assigned to the work type?

Wonderful. Thank you so much

This is amazing, with the somewhat expected 'downside' (upside for some?) that pretty much any pawn set to hunt/fish turn into a middle aged dad who never does anything but sit by the waterside with his rod in his hands.

Thank you for letting me know @vertigo! Will fix.

I feel like some pawns shouldn't treat it as recreation. That might involve traits, or reading existing pawn traits. So maybe not

fyi your PublishedFileID is incorrect. It points to an unlisted/nonexistant mod.

I seriously dont get what the devs were smoking. Fishing is literally one of the most chilling hobbies but I guess Tynan never went fishing.

Maybe his brilliant book has it explained

I think thats why it normally does not in rimworld dahaka, in rimworld its a neccesity for survival in some colonies. Except the game can't or does not bother to detect when it cleary isn't. Could be a cool idea for a whole ideoligion meme though. Fishing has the big problem of how long the task takes which is why this mod is a neccesity to make it worthwhile without getting false mental break reports. It also is stacked with hunting and like hunting checks for animal skill without making that obvious to the player (Shows pawn has passion for shooting in the tab). A fisher with level 20 animals gains 2/3 extra fishing speed on top of base speed. It might not even give animal experience either.
Another solution could have been to freeze the mood like it does with sleeping unsure why odyssey did not do that, maybe too exploitable?
Anyway thanks for all the options Nebula
