Auto Animal Feeder

Description
Auto Animal Feeder

I put this together mostly for animal only playthroughs, because they don't have a way to get food like human characters do. Which means they eat corpses of animals and people in the wild, or they starve.

This gives them a chance to not have to fight to survive, and gives the reasonable assumption of having a feeder close to cities where people would keep animals and have feeders to feed them. This feeder is in the build menu and produces dried meat, though you will still have to drag it from the feeder and put it on the ground to feed the animals. Since they can't do that themselves. But it keeps them from starving.

I have a companion mod to this one, called Dead Animal Corpse, that acts as a feeder for the wilderness areas for animal playthrough characters, to make running across a cache of available food a viable reason to exist.

Anyway, hope you enjoy it, if there are issues or problems please let me know.

Happy Journeys out there!

One of the players had a dog that didn't make it, because the cook kept putting the food in barrels and the dog couldn't get to the barrels to eat. :(
I had the auto feeder, but it was outside only. I went back today and made it so you can have the auto feeders, both the auto-feeder and the auto-wheatstraw feeder inside of buildings as well as outside too. Also the auto-feeder produces meat and wheatstraw without a cook, so you don't have to worry about where your cook puts the food. :)
Anyway, I hate to lose a dog because of negligent cooks, so, if you lose a dog, go back to a previous save and get your dog back. :)
Take care and happy gaming out there!

Hmmm... I haven't used the 256 patch, however, put the auto-feeder below the 256 patch in the load order, the list of mods you use in your game. Put the auto-feeder closer to the bottom of the list, lower than the 256 patch. Let me know what happens, okay?
:)
Have fun out there and Merry Christmas!

em, the puzzle is after I drag the meat into my bag or barrels, they don't eat there. Maybe cause by 256 people patch, much lives in a map

yes, the auto-feeder produces cooked meat and the animal corpse produces raw meat, but the auto-feeder and the animal corpse are not containers like say a barrel or a backpack. And backpacks have been coded where the companions and animals can eat automatically from it.
Sorry, you still need to drag the meat out and put it on the ground, or in a backpack to have everyone have access to it.

But I find the animals and people sometimes do not eat from the containers,like animal feeders or food barrels, but only eat things dropped from the ground. It's so weird.

Thanks, I get the raw meat from corpse!
