Description
Adds Troughs for tamed animals, they need to drink too. Survivors will fill them with water from hand pumps or sinks.

Troughs use the vanilla Feeder model while the feeders are changed by this mod to a smaller size holding 2 stacks of food instead of 3 in order to distinguish better between the two (and because we know they were holding too much food).

Water mod required!

Hi. I really like the water and animal drink mods. Such a QoL add on.

I have some of the same issues with the water troughs as noted by others in these posts.

My animals are ignoring food and starving requiring constant vigil and and refilling of water troughs so they will eat. Are the bots supposed to handle the troughs? I have to do it manually. Is it supposed to be an auto thing? I have almost had to use one survivor to manage this alone and I have to tell them every time, "Hey, You! Did you water the cows?" LOL

Is it possible to provide more than 50 gals of water at a time? My bull Ulfen literally pushes the ladies out of the way to get to the water, drinks it all (yes all).

I have noticed similar issue with the dogs.

Am I missing a setting or just having a blonde moment?

Great Mod. I really like all the water mods. But I also have the problem with starving animals and you cant hand feed them when its active. I think that the mod substitutes drinking for eating in behavioral requirements. then the animal wont eat again for awhile and just gets more and more hungry. if near food when it goes berserk, it will eat as long as nobody gets between it and food. But when its starving and you bring it food, it just ignores the food.

I made an update for the eating drinking habits of animals.
As far as I can tell transporting water should use the same logic of transporting any other resource but I'll keep an eye out for that.

Your doing amazing work with all those water mods :D
Thanks for your reply, its seems to work better with a restart of the game ^^
Other little stuff i find odd : when a settler fill a troughs, he take the water from the handpump nearby for first 10 gallon of water then he walk to the sink in the kitchen far away to take the second 10 gallon then he walk to the second handpump to take third...ect... its take forever if we expend the camp

I will double check but I tested with ulfens...

Hi, i think your mod mess a little with tamed animals, birds are fine but dogs and ulfens always starving, they only pay attention to water troughs and never eat at the feeder...
