SH's Wildlife (Lite Version)

Adds some wildlife to the game (excluding locations added by other mods).

SH’s Wildlife (Lite Version)

🐾Module Introduction

This is a stripped down version of the Wildlife mod, meaning it does not contain support for other mods and is not fully compatible with mods that overhaul the game's maps. If you plan on using mods that modify the map such as Stardew Valley Expansion/Lnh's Ginger Island Overhaul, please download the main wildlife mod for better compatibility.

But you **can** use this version! I just can't guarantee 100% compatibility (e.g. animals may get stuck in buildings/objects/terrain added by other mods, but it won't cause the game to crash). This release is to ensure that non-SVE players don't receive update notifications that only affect SVE changes (or any future mods I decide to expand compatibility with).

🌳 Features

This mod adds numerous animals to various locations in the game based on time of day, weather, and season. As long as you can get into the area where they spawn, you're almost guaranteed to see at least a few animals. They will wander around, so you may lose track of some animals, especially if they are hiding behind trees or in grass.

🦆 Animal Ecology

• There probably won't be much wildlife in the first year of the game, with the occasional squirrel and friendly ducks that like to sit in the forest pond
• As the game progresses, you will encounter more animals!
• Some animals may learn not to run away when you approach...

⚠️ Performance Tips

**Note**: This mod will increase the processing load of the game due to the number of animals and their settings required to determine whether they should appear on the current game day. **May** cause lag! However, during the testing phase, I encountered no lag issues when using a minimal number of other mods.
