Winona the gatherer (complete winona overhaul)

Description
completely reworks winona to be a resource collecting based character. at a first glance she seems way to powerful, but i wanted to give maxwell a run for his money as the best resource collecter.
as far as im aware this is the only mod that really makes another resource based character besides some of the maxwell rework mods. i used winona because 1: skins, 2: she needed an rework anyway, and 3: im terrible at drawing my own characters.

100 health, 100 hunger, 150 sanity,
Pros,
-25% faster movespeed
-50% reduced hunger rate
-doubles pickup rate for grass, twigs, berries, anything that is picked or harvested (except for farms)
-chops wood faster (same as woodie)
-does double work with all tools (Axe, Hammer, Pickaxe)
-spawns with a piggy backpack

Cons,
-40% reduced damage delt
-30% increased damage vulnerability

these Pros maker winona a god at mining, chopping, collecting, and even conserving food for her team. Maxwell is still faster overall at mining and woodcutting, he also has the benefit of not using tool durability and can fight loads more effectively than winona can. by giving winona 100 health and 30% damage vulnerability, she can take about the same ammount of damage as maxwell can (slightly less actually) but she'll require more healing afterwards and her armor will break faster.
the idea was to make someone like wolfgang.. but for collecting resources instead of fighting.

Configs for every change the mod makes, customize the balance to your liking. has the potential to make her harder than wes. or stronger than wolfgang.

Known bugs:
-wierd glitch where you get 4x the items from picking when the season changes (i think) more testing is required
i have no idea what causes this, the code is set up to simply multiply the "numharvest" value by 2 if the chance succeds, and do nothing if it fails (default 100%) its really wierd. if anyone has a fix let me know. until then either waiting a few minutes or restarting the world seems to fix this bug

-forgot to change some of the hover desc for the config options after copy pasting the section of code. so some of them say the same text as the triple tool power desc.

Wes version as requested. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1387457465

As a combat main I can't stand having less damage, so I'll probably end up doing something like removing the double pickup rate in return for doing normal damage again. I pretty much never get hit anyways, so I personally don't really mind a damage resist debuff, but it will clearly affect the gameplay a lot and balance her out more to keep it on.

Would this work better alongside her Rework?

Let's find out.

the 2 main ideas beind this mod were to add interesting stats. and to have it fully customizable. everyone has their own opinion on what is balanced in the game. thats why all of the stats go both directions. as penalties or as benefits if you want them to be. :P

As with the note of a commenter below, I edited Winona so that mine would suit her personality more, I made it so that she takes more damage because of (presumably) how much she carries, but she deals slightly more damage because she's such a hard worker so weight be damned she will DO HER BEST. I also considered making her slower than normal because of the weight thing, but I think that would throw me off too much so she's just down to normal. Thanks for making such a fun to configure mod!

I mean balance wise, since maxwell and woodie don't have hunger modifiers I see winoa's as one of the sole reasons she's great early game. It's a good mod, I just disabled the hunger buff and wanted your opinion.

Can you make this mod for all the basic characters? Being able to customize every single setting to get your own preferred balance is really fucking awesome.

I like this mod since it is VERY customizable, which is exactly what i need (most mods are simply brokenly strong, and this lets me tune it down).

But i noticed that winona hacks wood faster even without Lucy and there is no way to disable it.
Why is this not customizable?
