📋 About This Mod

This Mod tweaks Bestiary progression.

The Bestiary mechanic has a fun side to it - you kill/tame/skin animals, and in turn, you learn about them!

However... after Killing/Taming/Skinning a couple thousand wolves, it seems I still don't know why they like my flesh so much..

So, I tweaked most Point Totals (how many points you need to reach 100%) on all animals following this rule:

- More common Predators (Wolves, Boars, Cave Worms) at 2500 to 2000

- Common Passive animals (Chamois, Deer, Moa) at 1000 to 1500

- Uncommon Predators (Crocodiles, Scorpions, Cougars) at 2000 to 1500

- Most Large animals (Elephants, Mammoths) at 800

- Pets (Horses, Dogs, Chickens, Sheep, Cows.. basically any Workshop Tame) at 800

- Bosses (Landshark, Sandworm) at 500

To make these points a little easier to get, I also changed the Point rewards for the Bestiary, things like Killing and Skinning reward more points, with Skinning on the Bench, Making Trophies and using the Scanner rewarding the highest amount of points.

The examples above aren't the only ones that were changed, just a small list to show the thought process on why the values are what they are. I applied that rule of thumb to every creature in the game and to all actions you can take to get points.

Always make a backup (Under your Local - Icarus - Saved) of your data just so nothing gets lost.

If you don't know how to install mods for Icarus:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Icarus\Icarus\Content\Paks\mods

Just gotta unpack and drag the .pak file in there, if the Mods folder doesn't exist, create it.

But I highly advise to just use Jim's Mod Manager anyway, it's great.

Note: No support will be provided for using mods in Multiplayer. If you do it without informing yourself first, it's on you.

Incompatibility:

- Any mods that alter the D_BestiaryData.json and D_BestiaryPoints.json files will most likely be incompatible, use IMM Merged Mod option to override this.

Currently working on some other mods, but if there's anything that needs work or any suggestions, I'm open to it.
