[Retired] Picnic Spot

Description
Please use Picnic Area instead!

IMPORTANT NOTE: This mod is under active development, since I still have to figure out a way to make multiple sitting slots on a single object. What's in is fully functional and there should not be save breaking changes, since updates will only add objects or tweak graphics. At worst you may have to reinstall an object to fix rotation and such.
PLEASE do report issues and let me know if you know anyone who has successfully made multi-seat objects (not counting draggables like modular benches).

A simple spot you can designate for people to sit, hang out, and have a snack.

To use a "table" surface a pawn needs to have a sittable item next to it. The included items are all both sittable and tables.
I recommend scattering the spots in unprotected outdoors areas, since they can't be destoyed. You can mix and match all object. As long as a hugry pawn can find an empty cell to sit on adjacent to one they can eat off they will not have an "ate without table" debuff.

Included at the moment:

Picnic spot (2x1): Allows one pawn to eat without debuff. Place several in a cluster for multiple pawns!

Picnic Pad (1x1): A pawn can sit on it or eat off it. You'll need a sittable or table tile next to it to remove the debuff. A bit more comfy than the naked floor.

Picnic Mat (2x1): Works just like the spot, but more comfortable.

I really miss this mod. I used to decorate my beaches with these things.

Not at the moment, I'm somewhat burned out on modding right now.

Is this mod still in development?
cucumpear  [author] 19 Oct, 2018 @ 3:20am 
It would, but I'm not sure if I can implement that. But thank you for your comment!

I like this concept better then the other mods that just remove the debuf, add a new food item, or force pawns to run across the map to eat, but like someone else said having to manually place them is a little limiting. It'd be cool if pawns would place a picknick item out of their inventory (like the bedroll and other mods) when no table is in range.

Perhaps you could look at how campfires and pool/poker tables work. They have several interaction spots but not multiple sitting spots. Campfires might work better for a picnic area, if the item were to be made like a 3x3 or 5x5 or so area (like a picnic blanket) it could be used by itself without tables to negate the "Ate without table" debuff, working in a similar fashion to gathering around a campfire.

Just a couple ideas!

oof.. well then.. the mods idea is cool tho, it requires a specific playstyle but it can work. E.Q if you are building a mountain base like me you wont be having picnics often but if you enjoy the "town" playstyle this is really cool

I did, it's... complex.

you should look at how double beds are coded, maybe you will find a clue to how to make it then
