Awesome crabpots brings a number of improvements to crabpots to improve their relevance.
Currently they can only be baited with a selection of reasonably high value meat products, and will often generate low value rewards such as shells. To counter this the mod: - Introduces a bait system where some items can fill multiple crabpots (ie one raw meat can now fill four crab pots on default settings). Approximate bait ratio is 1 bait per 100g of value of the input item. - (customizable via config file) Adds apples, limes, bananas, quandongs and animal food as items that can also fill crabpots.
This mod does not change or interfere with what rewards are given by crabpots.
Adding / Removing the mod: Pretty much entirely risk free. The only behavior that occurs is when a crabpot is clicked. Safe to remove / delete mid playthrough as no information persists with the save state.
There are settings in here that let you change what items can be used to make bait, and how many bait you get from each item. All items are compatible. If you don't want the in game notifications they can also be disabled here.
Source and fair use: The mod is open source (CC0) and available at https://github.com/ETcodehome/DinkumAwesomeCrabpots Please feel free to use it / reference it / learn from it etc with my best wishes.
