StopFoodDecay Updated
Food never rots. Updated rewrite of Jeremiah's StopFoodDecay for the current game version - strips decay from items on spawn and from everything already in the scene.

StopFoodDecay (Updated)
Your food never rots. This mod removes the decay timer from perishable items, so rations stop being a countdown and start being supplies.
This is an updated, rewritten fork of StopFoodDecay by Jeremiah, whose original mod (last released in 2020) no longer works on current versions of Outward. All credit for the original idea and approach goes to Jeremiah — the original source is MIT-licensed and available on GitHub. This version keeps the same core technique, rebuilt against current BepInEx and Harmony.
What it does
- Any item with a decay timer has its Perishable component removed the moment it initializes — food picked up, bought, cooked, or looted stays fresh forever.
- On load, the mod also sweeps every item already present in the scene and removes their decay timers, so items that existed before you installed the mod are covered too.
- Logs a confirmation message (Stop Food Decay v2.1.0 loaded successfully!) to the BepInEx console so you know it's active.
Differences from the original
- Rebuilt for current Outward / BepInEx 5.4.2x / Harmony 2.9 (the 2020 build targeted BepInEx 5.1 and no longer loads correctly).
- Covers all perishable items, not just those typed as Food.
- Adds the on-load scene sweep, so already-spawned items are un-perished immediately instead of only newly initialized ones.
Installation
Install with r2modman Mod Manager (recommended) — it handles everything, including the BepInEx dependency.
Manual install: make sure BepInExPack Outward is installed, then drop StopFoodDecay.dll into BepInEx/plugins.
Notes
- Items already partially decayed keep their current freshness — they just stop decaying further.
- Removing the mod restores vanilla behavior for newly spawned items.

安裝與使用 安裝：BepInEx 外掛
- 本站下載的壓縮包就是模組本體，通常是 BepInEx 外掛（解壓後得到 .dll 或外掛資料夾）。
- 建議流程：用社群模組管理器（如 r2modman）選中本遊戲後匯入該模組，管理器會自動裝好 BepInEx 前置並處理依賴。
- 手動流程：先在遊戲目錄裝好 BepInEx 載入器，再把解壓出的 .dll 或外掛資料夾放進 BepInEx/plugins/。
- 啟動遊戲，BepInEx 控制台會列印載入日誌；確認這個模組出現在日誌裡即為安裝成功。
帶「前置依賴」的模組需要一併安裝，否則不會載入。功能開關通常在遊戲內或外掛自帶的設定檔裡調整。
