📋 About This Mod
Name: Slower Food Spoil
Version: 1. 0
Date: 2022-12-30
File under: Rotten meat begone!
Author: theskymoves
=================
Requirements:
=================
Kingdom Come Deliverance
From the Ashes DLC (probably?)
=================
Description:
=================
Extends the expiration date on all foodstuffs, either by 2X (recommended), 3X, or 5X.
Some examples of the durability changes (in days):
vanilla 2X 3X 5X
apple 5 10 15 25
hare 1 2 3 5
bread 4 8 12 20
recommended
I initially playtested the 3X version, which quickly felt unrealistic and excessive, whereas a simple doubling of the very short vanilla duration affords a bit of a buffer, while still being immersive. (The 5X file was very minimally playtested, but should be sound.)
=================
To Install:
=================
Locate the 'Mods' subfolder of the 'Kingdom Come Deliverance' game directory. (The exact location will be specific to the source/provider of the game, and whether you've installed to the default location or not.)
If no 'Mods' folder exists, manually create one as a subfolder of 'Kingdom Come Deliverance'; it should be at the same level in hierarchy as folders like 'bin', 'Data', and 'Engine'.
Having located (or created) the 'Mods' folder, choose one version of 'SlowerFoodSpoil', and copy that version to the 'Mods' folder.
Be sure to install only one of the three versions!
Add the mod to your 'mod_order.txt' file.
=================
To Uninstall:
=================
Delete the 'SlowerFoodSpoil' folder
Remove the 'SlowerFoodSpoil' entry from 'mod_order.txt'.
=================
Notes and blather:
=================
Should be compatible with other mods, unless they also make edits to consumable food items via food.xml.
Can be installed and removed from an existing game. Spoil durations should update automatically to reflect the modded values.

Inspired by the several 'alternate food spoilage' mods on the KCD Nexus, none of which worked for me. Sometimes you just gotta do it for yourself.

TSM Slower Food Spoil extends the expiration date of all food items in Kingdom Come Deliverance by 2x, 3x, or 5x. It's a simple quality-of-life mod for players who find vanilla food spoilage too fast. The mod offers three versions, with 2x recommended by the author for balance.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Simple and effective: just drop the folder and edit mod_order.txt.
- Three difficulty options let you tailor spoilage to your playstyle.
- Author playtested the 2x and 3x versions, so balance is considered.
⚠️ Cons
- Author notes 3x felt unrealistic and excessive, so higher multipliers may break immersion.
- Requires manual installation and editing mod_order.txt, which might confuse modding newbies.
- Last updated in 2023 — may not be compatible with future game patches.
For Kingdom Come: Deliverance players who hate watching food rot in their inventory and want a bit more leeway without trivializing survival. If you're a hardcore survivalist who enjoys the challenge of scarce food, skip this — it's purely a convenience tweak.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you create the 'Mods' folder in the correct location — it should be at the same level as 'Data' and 'Engine' folders.
- Edit mod_order.txt to add 'SlowerFoodSpoil' — if the file doesn't exist, create it in the game's root directory.
- Only install one version of the mod; installing multiple will cause conflicts.
