This mod is great! It makes nutrient paste on a gravship way more doable and eventually quite efficient. Hard to beat it.

honestly at first, i don't liked this mod that much after trying it, but now i have one great use for this, keep feeding my animals without much problem

I can still make the dispenser dispense simple meals manually but I would like the colonist to use it normally, I already allowed them to eat everything and nothing is forbidden

So I upgraded from the base nutrient paste to simple and my colonist no longer eat from the dispenser (the dispenser is also upgraded to simple) do I need to upgrade or drain the vat tank?

Oh, wait, no. Wasn't keeping an eye on my cube maker, ha.

Though installing it midgame seems to have issues. My existing grinder and tank keeps emptying, despite not consuming paste anywhere near so fast as it's bottoming out.

This looks... Surprisingly well balanced. Nicely done.

For everyone who was encountering incorrect fluid paste convertion into paste meal types: patch was updated to correlate with the recent VEF update changes, so it fixed now.

OceanicOxen, oh, right, that one, now I remember. Ig last update of VEF changed that method and tranpiler now need an update. Wish they were notifying when they change something so fundamental.

its a transpiler in HarmonyPatches in your mod though

OceanicOxen, PN means PipeNetwork, so the issue is with VEF, so should be reported to them.

PN_DistributeAmongConverters_Transpiler appears to not properly find values for num1 and num2 thus causing the transpiler to fail and it to continue using the original method which only accepts integers

i have updated both VNPE and VEF and have the same issue

[水真汽]门房秦大爷Q, if you talking about Nutrient Paste Kibble, then it a bug of recent update of VNPE, which round cost of 0.04 to 1 for some reason. Try force update VNPE and VEF.

CommanderKSK, VNPE not supporting counting of different ingredients, so it just using amount of nutrient paste liquid as a cost, instead of checking for Protein and Vegetables values, which sadly doesn't exist in paste pipe network.

6个0.05营养生肉转变成1份营养膏，但是1份营养膏从饲料排出口只能生成1份0.05营养的饲料，这样的转换比很不理想
Six 0.05 nutrient-rich raw meat portions are converted into one nutrient paste portion, but one nutrient paste portion can only generate one 0.05 nutrient-rich feed portion from the feed outlet. This conversion ratio is not ideal.

For the Lavish Nutrient Paste do i need Protein and Vegetables?

should be fixed already yayks. verify integrity of game files, that'll also check the workshop mods. If for some reason that doesn't grab you the newest VNPE version, you have to unsub from it (wait a bit) then resub to it. Mod updates are finnicky.

yayks, it is known bug for some people, which caused by recent update of either VNPE or pipe network itself in VEF. Not much can be done till they fix it.

Nutrien paste kibble feeder convert nutrien paste to kibble 1:1 ratio, so for 150 kibble with nutrition 0.05 * 150 = 7,5, you need 150 nutrien paste with nutrition 0.9 * 150 = 135

Add more food to the hoppers. You need 6 pieces. Or 5 if using Yellow Bell Peppers.

Did not find enough food in hoppers while trying to grind.

Oh certainly! Sorry! One moment, I'll post in there.

Cyboran, probably move to Issues discussion thread for further discussion and figuring out.

Cyboran, just in case tested, but everything seems as intended. In vanilla 150 kibble cost 6 nutrition = 60 rice + 60 meat. While 150 nutrient kibble cost 20 paste meals = 6 nutrition = 60 rice + 60 meat. So everything adds up. Not sure about devil sheeps, but 1 bear eat around 50 kibble, which is around 6 paste meals per each bear. I think you and R.lock might be confusing ingredient cost of kibble as nutrient paste fluid (amount of meals in system), while it actually refering to amount of nutrition that fed into grinder.

I'm having a similar issue to R.lock, I didn't have this issue before today, but after the update my devil sheep and bears just destroyed my stock of 2430 nutrient paste meals in about a day. The feeder is acting as if each individual kibble is one or more meals from the vats.

My bear ate 74 kibble, with the vats holding 2418, after the feeder refills, the vats are now 2344, which equates to 74 meals. According to your comment about 50 kibble per 2 ingredients, would that not mean it should've only used 1.5 meals?

@vinni Pikh you don't need to put feeding tubes over draincaskets. They hook into the nutrient paste line directly

R.lock, yep, definetly confused, it producing 50, which exactly same amount of paste kibble per 2 ingredient as 50 normal kibble per 2 ingredients.

I'm really confused about the numbers.
One unit of stored meal converts into one unit of animal feed.
But animals consume dozens of units of feed in a single feeding—does that mean they’re eating dozens of full meals at once?
If that’s the case, why not just stick with the original animal kibble instead?

Done! Regardless, thank you for your hard work this mod is amazing ❤️

Vinni Pukh, not familiar with it, but you can put in suggestions discussion thread,

Any way we could get the feeding tube to place over the warcrime draincaskets from vanilla expanded sanguophages? :)

Phanlix, released a hotfix for that now. Basically before new feature for Nutrient Paste Processors added new variables, so when was loaded old saves with spawned Processors they didn't had this new variable and caused that issue. But now it will regenerate this variable on load, if it doesn't exist in old save.

The recent update broke my refineries, had to use dev mode to destroy them since I couldn't even demo them normally because stack reference was bad. But on rebuilding them they worked great, the production tab is a nice addition, 'do until' was much needed.

Thank you for the production plan settings on the paste packager, it works well.

I was already sold, and then I got to the refinery and filter. I think I love you. My colonists sure do!

no, dripper and feeding tube can feed newborn in crib, so separate paste type not really needed.

Turkwise, due to the way sbz Fridge coded it can't be used for this. So far only Simple Utilites: Fridge was universal enough to be applied here.

Any chance of compatibility with sbz Fridge too?
I dont want to add a redundant fridge mod just to get the refrigerated variants from this mod.

is it possible to add nutrient paste baby food to this mod? love it so far btw

Corbald, always send in Bugs discussion thread. So move it there with full log, since I need to see full picture.

For anyone who had an issue with ingredients of meals or filter it now fixed in this update.

@[Zerg03] MrHydralisk
Gorgeous mod. Simply gorgeous. Thanks very much.
Contains everything I would have wanted added to this mod and more.

Okay, I'll see which I prefer.

Skywatcher68, I made a mod for VNPE PDTiers before, but since v1.6 it was reworked into this mod, since reliance on making compatability with NPDTiers that hold on life support works worse, than implementing all features natively and expanding on it. This allowed to not use NPDTiers as dependncy and work without it. So long story short there just no need for it.

Harlequin, if it an issue, then report it in Bugs discussion thread with more info on how to reproduce it and logs, since without it I can't say why it not working for you.

How do you set an ingredient to filter out using the filter? There is no option I can see to choose an ingredient and the button to start filtering is grayed out. I tried right clicking with a pawn and got no prompts.

Compatible with NPDTiers? https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2043895447

Arcimbaldo, sadly won't work due to the way RimFridge coded, unless they implement a patch on their side or make instead of current thing class a comp class that can be added to any storage through xml.

Looks great. Would be good if the refridgerated versions could also be patched to appear with the RimFridge modhttps://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2898411376&searchtext=fridge

How to automate Nutrient paste packager? I mean ok it's set to 30, but if i didn't activate "toggle auto unloading" than the pawns treat it as not existing, if i activate it then they keep getting to stuff out non stop, i looked away and there was aroun 600+ package in my fridge. So how?
Or can u turn it into a tap like how the rest of the food type working? Also the qube and fuel as they probably have the same problem.

BRO IS THE REAL GOAT OF RIMWORLD. Thats a REAL VANILLA EXPANED MOD. Give credits to this man just because he made something 100% logical for a progression type game
