Check out the mod Animal Control guys

Ya, I'm bailing out of this mod until new born animals can default to a specific food policy.

So annoying that newborn animals don't get the animal food restriction automatically. This is a must have mod for me, but until that is fixed I'll have to use a different one.

Any plans to update this one to 1.4?

Not impossible if you set a zone where food is stored, then inverse it and set the zone for the allowed zone for animals, which is more of a brute fix.

Thank you! Maybe my Dragons Thrumbos and Guinea Pigs can stop being Alcoholics now and EXPLODING from Chemshine overdose.

I'm guessing the food restrictions are not inherited by offspring?

@T.N.Tobin how? Been looking into it and I keep turning up nothing. I am really tired of my fine and lavish meals being fed to pigs by my colonists.

This is pointless. you can already tell animals not to eat packaged meals. the game has ways to limit things.

Thanks man! You rock.

Thanks for your update works!

Updated to v1.3:
- Support for game version 1.3

@Bizarro try Animal Controls, has it and more. By the description looks better since newborns inherit their food restriction from their parents;

Hope somebody updates this mod. It should honestly be coded into the base game itself lol.

Animals logic? I can't remember how it works.

1.3 pls?

Update?

No thanks I don't want to use an unnecessarily convoluted system instead of this.

^ replacement in the description above

Ûpdate?

i'm not sure if this mod (out of date) is the cause, but my human pawns couldn't eat meals with this 1.2 version in 1.3 game.

disabling this mod solved the problem.

also, i haven't playing in a while so i'm not sure if this mod ever had ability to prevent tamed thrumbos from eating all the planted trees?

1.3 version? does this 1.2 have problems on 1.3?

will this be updated ?

I just wanted to ask, if i set this to "NOTHING", will they still graze?

Thanks.

Update please?

@moosey That actually really does, as I have got that companion mod too. It's not that hard to just make the animal policy be the first in the list. Thanks.

@Ericus1 It's annoying, but by default (at least with the companion mod, AnimalFoodRestrictionsInTab) the restriction is set to the first out of all your food restrictions. In a new save, this should be Lavish -- I obviously didn't want animals eating my lavish food, so to fix this I set the lavish restriction to just something like kibble/hay and made a new restriction for my colonists to use (the idea being that I usually end up getting more animals faster than I end up getting new colonists). Hopefully that helps :)

The lack of being able to set a default value for or have newborn animals inherit the food restriction from the mother seriously compromises the utility of this mod. Constantly having to go through my livestock list of 200+ cows, pigs, and chickens to set every birthed animal to the correct food restriction so they don't starve to death is a serious pain.

@tovenaar I've found it's easiest to make a new food restriction list called animals, so you don't accidentally mess with what your colonists eat.

@nezumirogane I just plant peppers lol (vanilla something or other)

Running into an issue where even though hay is an allowed food for the milkbeetles and there's 2000 of it, the animal trainer won't train them in any skills, leading to skill decay. Unfortunate but that's too big of a bug (hehe) to keep using this mod.

Not sure what I'm doing wrong, but even after restricting my animals they're still eating meals which I disallowed. Is there something else I'm meant to be doing?

I was wondering how to bulk assign for all animals and found this mod which adds on to this one (need to have both in mod list) - https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2369311144&searchtext=AnimalFoodRestrictionInTab

Edit: I un-allowed these foods for my colonists, meaning I un-allowed them for my animals.

After 2 days of looking and playing without training(!!!!reeee), I've found the answer to my ''bug''
I could tame animals, but couldn't train them, as it would say ''no usable food''

Animal food restrictions were set to lavish, which doesn't allow hay/kibble etc
Not sure how much of this is default, I'd hope that its my own mistake, it probably is to be fair.

yep,thank you

I don't have a fix for that. Drugs are handled well away from where my animals can get them-- they don't haul them. Get the robots mod that adds hauling robots-- I find them far more useful than animals overall.

how about beers and other drugs that have nutrition?

I've paired this mod with Graze-up to prevent them from eating my crops. Otherwise, I only let my wolves into the actual sowing area.

my animals will eat my plants,but i want them to help me haul things.how to avoid that

I see, I have one for my meat eaters and a separate one for my other animals. Whenever I catch them eating something I slap them with the right meal type. I guess I could make the meat eater setup the default, as the other animals can access the kibble, thanks.

How do I set the food restriction for all animals?

I just make my first food restriction for animals and then another for my colonists since its easy to change there restrictions in mass @Nezumirogane other than that idk

Is there a way to pass on the food restrictions to offspring? I keep finding random young animals eating the berries and such my pawns harvest in the field with "Lavish" settings.

well I just wanted to stop my nuko getting wasted drinking whiskey maybe this mod is the answer

got a group of terriers. a while they had pupps. and the first thing one of them did was running to the beer shelf and got wasted... will try this mod!

My cat decide to kill itself by eating my flake. Time to install this mod.

I'm trying to prevent animals from drinking my wine and ambrandy, in addition to the nicer foods (insect jelly...). Does this mod help?
