Added thirst and hunger core system for horses

thirstyhorse

🐎Module introduction

This module is inspired by the "Horses Needs" module produced by bolmin70, which adds a real thirst and hunger system to the horses in "Red Dead Redemption 2", making horse management more real and interesting!

🌊 Drinking water function

  • Leave your horse near a water source or water trough to automatically drink water
  • If the water is too deep, the horse will not be able to drink
  • Horses will automatically approach rivers and other water sources when thirsty

🌾Eating function

  • Leave your horse near the haystack to eat
  • Horses will also automatically graze outside towns
  • By default, eating hay restores hunger cores faster than eating grass

⚡ Core Mechanism

  • Running and sprinting will accelerate core consumption
  • When any core drops to zero:
  • Health and stamina begin to decrease
  • Speed ​​is limited
  • The horse will start to fall to the ground
  • All details can be adjusted in the ThirstyHorse.ini file

📋 Version function

**Including core version:**

  • 💧 Drinking water restores thirsty core and physical strength
  • 🍎 Eating restores hunger cores and health
  • 💤 Rest to recover and increase physical strength and health

**Coreless version:**

  • 💧 Drink water to restore and enhance physical strength
  • 🍎 Eat hay to restore and enhance health
  • 🌿Eating grass restores health
  • 💤 Rest and restore physical strength

🎮 Usage suggestions

  • Make sure your horse is well fed before traveling long distances
  • Keep horses hydrated when passing water sources
  • Reasonably control the horse's running rhythm
  • Customize various parameters through configuration files

⚙️ Configuration options

  • Adjustable core display threshold (hidden above 50% by default)
  • Set maximum drinking depth
  • Custom core size
  • Disable mod option in mini-game
  • Doma supports eating and drinking at the same time

Make your western adventure more real and experience the joy of caring for horses!

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
  3. Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.

Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
