What does this mod do?

This mod changes how often your needs (Thirst & Hunger) drain over time during survival mode.

It does NOT affect the drain from chems/stimpacks/etc; If they diminished your needs previously, they will still diminish your needs when consumed.

Comes in 2 flavours.

  • []You have 4 times as long before the thirst/hunger values tick over to the next tier

    []Example: If it took 1 hour to go from well fed to peckish, it will now take 4 hours
