[NEW LINK IN DESC] Hunters Use Melee!

Description

Hunters Use Melee!
A small mod that allows hunters to make use of melee weapons to do their job as well as ranged. As simple as that :)

It is also safe to add or remove from a savegame. The mod doesn't make lasting changes to the game.

Now featuring!: Support for non-weapon hunting (using fists) and for Simple Sidearms, a mod I highly recommend :) Both are optional and can be enabled in the new mod settings menu.

About
This is a complete and original reimplementation of the concept set forth by "Melee Hunting" made by LockdownX7 and maintained by Keeper.

Keeper's version still uses the old detours method (pre-Harmony method used during Alpha).
This mod however uses Harmony and tries to be as minimal as possible, to run as clean as it can.

Supported Versions and Requirements
This mod is made for RimWorld 1.1 to 1.3 and requires Harmony 2.x

1.4 Please

@Kurt Russell unfortunately that mod doesn't seem to allow unarmed hunting, only melee hunting with a weapon, so for anybody else wanting their colonists to hunt using natural weapons like claws and whatnot, we're stuck waiting on this one to update, or for the mod you linked to fix this oversight

Heyo, if the author believes they won't have a chance to update this to 1.4, could you please link the following mod:

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2314356124&searchtext=hunter

Per the description: "New! There are options to enable melee hunting for various sizes of game (big, medium, or small) and to enable hunting predators (turned off by default). Note that your hunter's fight or flee setting will still apply when the hunted animal fights back."

Thank you and thanks for having continued this mod all the way upto 1.3

@讲究 The dev might not even be watching this anymore. We might need someone else to continue this(as seems to be the case with so many rimworld mods).
