Custom Butcher Framework

This is a modding library, it adds no new content to game. But it provide a mod extension for customizing what your animal would yield when you butcher it.

Which means you can make mushroom man from dark souls, a luxurious breed of cattle that yield many different cuts and parts, even lithoid, a living rock that yield mineral when enslaved as livestock in Stellaris.

In vanilla, meat is auto generated by fleshDefs or something like that, I'm not Tynan nor a coding expert so I don't know exactly how it works. Anyway the meat from animals is hard-coded and its properties cannot be changed.

You might ask there are walking cactus in Alpha Animal and they yield plant meat which's considered as veggie and manchicken from VGE has cursetom crispy meat. They are harmony patched in a hard-coded way, basically they check if the defName of the butchered animal is matched, then they took the first <thing> in <butcherProducts> and calculated the result.

TL;DR, Vanilla expanded team also hard-coded those custom meat generation.

Using <butcherProducts> yield a constant amount of resource no matter what, a fully-grown beast would yield the same as a newborn cub. That doesn't make sense, right?

Update, after further inspection, I finally figured out how to make it looks like vanilla <butcherProduct> tag, so you don't have to match number and ThingDefs, sorry in advance if this mess up your mod development

adding the following code to ThingDef:

There is an example:
This mean this creature called testpig would yield 100*1.7(bodysize) = 170 steel and 200*1.7=340 milk when butchered, but a baby testpig would only yield 100*0.34 = 34 steel and 200*0.34 = 68 milk.
Also the library detect if the animal is violently murdered by checking if there's any part missing, such method is not perfect as your animal would be consider damaged if they missed some part before butchered by colonist, resulting crippled and cybernetic-enhanced animal yield much less resource.(BTW if you don't know, In vanilla if animals were not killed by butchering will yield 1/3 less meat and leather)
There is the full example def in mod file for how to use the extension, also the custom resource won't be display on pawn information.

Don't worry, this time only adds some optional functions, which shouldn't mess up your mod.I add 6 different tags to the assembly:

<spawnChance>
<maxAmount>
<productFluctuation>
<damagedBodyPartThreshold>
<damagedMultiplier>
<wasteIfDamaged> new function since August 13
<wasteIfNotAdult> new function since August 17

These function would be explained in discussion section.

Q1: Does the mod affect normal meat generation?
A: No, they can be used togather, if you want to create a wagyu that yield both normal meat and prime steak, you can do that.

Q2: How many custom resource can be put in the extension?
A: As many as your computer can handle.

Q3: How about vanilla <butcherProducts> tag?
A: Unchanged, you can use them together with the mod.

Q4: May I use the library to make my mods?
A: Yes, as long as you follow the CC license below and maybe share your mod in comment section.

Q5: CE?
A: I don't see anything that would break it as the mod only add a modExtension class in game, but seriously...
