Group members eat WAY TOO MUCH and are very picky.
1) Seriously, I had to constantly go non-stop fishing and foraging, while they were instantly emptying the fridge in about an in-game hour.
2) I tried to cook some food to increase nutricious value, but they were grabbing it from the oven and instantly eating it raw.
3) In the meantime, they completely refuse to eat canned oats and peanut butter.
4) I have a perk 'heavy appetite', but I still eat 2x less than they do.
5) I dismissed and killed one of my guys to find out, that his inventory was stuffed with food that he didn't eat for some reason, but still was taking.
6) I can't imagine how much they need to drink, since I was never able to survive longer than 10 days because of their appetite. I don't even want to find out how I would constantly need to boil water for them.

My suggestion: removing need for water and decreasing need for food.
I could just disable hunger and thirst, but it feels like it's cheating.

Still love this mod and thank its developer! Apart from constant hunger issue, survivors are quite realistic and perfectly working.

I play with a 6 hour realtime day,and sometimes longer,and dont have this problem.Perhaps play with a longer day ?

I can get about a 3days worth of food for my 30+ survivors in a single game day,with the longer realtime day settings.And once my crops start coming in,i am hoping i wont have to put any time into food runs anymore.

You have 30+ survivors in your group? ?!

@nolanritchie when I enabled hunger I had only 3 other guys, but they weren't smart enough to forage/find food for themselves and I was the only feeder. They were even taking food from the fridge without eating it, which I found out when I killed the one who was complaining about hunger, but had several cans and fishes in his inventory.

One day I locked the front door for a minute to cook some food (otherwise they would take it from the oven and eat raw). Guess what? They took down the door and broke a window and actually took meat from the oven! Nothing stops them from consuming your entire fridge in a day.

I must be evil becuase I laughed for a odly long time after reading this. haha they broke down the door to take uncooked meat from the stove, oh lol.

well when they are starving there is no way to stop them from taking and eating food around the area. but they are NOT supposed to be hoarding food in their inventory. I never told them to do that, so they must have a mind of thier own.

@nolanritchie And additionally, they really don't like peanut butter and tea bags, which were never touched from the fridge. Some random NPCs also tend to come to my base and take whatever they find just to be shot by my guards. Will there be an option to make your members aggressive and kill anyone on sight?

Up to about 36 now....

I have 2 farmers (i like farmers,they tend to eat worms while they work :P ) working over 200 plots,so food should be no problem once the crops start rolling in.

Also have 16 refridge/freezers set up in thje food storage area for crops,and about 20 crates full of canned goods.

Wow, my game stats freaking out if I have at least 10 members, and that's not because of my PC, and not because of RAM (I have 8GB). It doesn't lag, but periodically freezes, which is annoying.

I seems like you already supposed to have farmer and lots of food and crops before accepting any more people.

I wish there was an option to tell survivors in your group or even demand other survivors not to take your food. I spawn in a new game and immediately someone smashes my window to run in and grab the raw meat from the oven, chats friendly with me, then leaves, and without a weapon I can't do anything and there's no way to tell them to piss off.
