What is Hunter of the commonwealth (HotC)?

Hunter of the commonwealth adds a new mechanic to gather meat, bones, skin and other materials from animals in a new immersive way.

Features

Inspect your prey and get several options which you can perform(Need to be bound in MCM):

Butcher

Collect meat from your prey. The amount of meat depends on the weight of your prey. As an optional feature, the corpse will be dismembered on butchering.

Cannibal

You are a cannibal? No Problem! You can also butcher humans. HotC adds several new human related meat items.

Raw meat like, lower arm, upper arm, leg, eye, head, brain.

New cooking recipes for stews, soups and other meat related stuff, like bacon, jerky, etc.

Collect blood (BoS Quest related)

Enemies will no longer hand them over to you after you kill them. You have to gather the blood samples directly from your prey. There is a chance for failure, which is similar to the drop rate of the vanilla blood samples.

If this is not immersive for you, you can enable test tube gathering. This can be toggled  with MCM. You can now craft test tubes to gather the blood samples. Test tubes can be crafted at the Chemstation.

Collect nuclear material & glowing blood

Instead of easily picking up your nuclear material, you now to make your hands dirty!

Harvest

Many items, that could be easily looted from a corpse, now need to be harvested. A Bloatfly will no longer hand you over it's gland. This also removes the random factor of finding specific items. If you want that Bloatfly gland, you can now get it at any time.

Skin

This options allows you to gather the hides of your prey. In addition to the vanilla experience, you can now also get hides from various other animals. For example, you can now also skin cats, dogs, rabbits, rats and more.

Dispose

Is a corpse bothering you and lying around in your settlement and it doesn't want to disappear? Simply dispose it with HotC and it's gone!

Melee weapons as tools

Your combat knife is not only good to slice some ghouls, it also helps you to disassemble your prey. Not every melee weapon can be used and they also make a difference. Using a Switchblade will take you much longer than using a Ripper. All suitable melee weapons have been sorted as tools.
