Eating food can heal wound instantly?
How do you never have fever?
etc. etc. etc.

Welp......

Introduce Stardew Survival Project, a work-in-progress mod that adds various realism mechanics to Stardew Valley (Thirst, Hunger, Body Temperature, HP Rework) intended for more challenging play-through, designed with customizability first and player's comfort a close thirteenth.

IMPORTANT NOTE: This is very much a work-in-progress and while all the base mechanic is completed, the mod doesn't have nearly enough items to support this degree of additional and altered mechanic and no balancing has been done in a proper play-through with this mod. 

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT: Massive thank you to XPuccaX for the complete re-sprite of the mod (include all main mod asset and content patcher asset)

Key Feature:

  • Hunger mechanic (Passively drain over time (even when you are sleeping), drain faster when you use tools and run around the map)
  • Thirst mechanic (Similar to hunger in term of draining, require you to drink from water or other types of liquid)
  • Temperature mechanic (You now have body temperature that react accordingly to environment change such as time of day, season, weather and location)
  • HP mechanic rework (Eating food no longer heal you, you'd better bring your bandage along in a mining trip)
  • Stamina mechanic rework (More aggressive draining and regenerating setting, also allow sprinting at the cost of accelerated stamina drain)

1. Hunger and Thirst Stat

As stated before, these stats will drain passively over time even when you are sleeping, and drain faster if you are running or using tools (You can tweak how fast these stats drain or disable them altogether in the mod configuration)



Hunger and Thirst meter


These mechanic introduce some buff and de-buff effects base on your hunger and thirst stat, which includes (underlined text indicate configurable elements):

Integration with Generic Mod Config mod to navigate the dizzying amount of options the mod provide

Compatibility

Game Compatibility:
  • Version 0.4.0-alpha and later run on SMAPI 4.0 (should work with Stardew Valley 1.6)
  • Version 0.2.4-alpha and later run on SMAPI 3.16 (should work with Stardew Valley 1.5.5)
  • Version 0.2.3-alpha and earlier run on SMAPI 3.12 (should work with Stardew Valley 1.5.4)
  • Untested on Android (Probably not gonna work)

Gamemode Compatibility:
  • Work with Single-player
  • Untested with Multiplayer (Split-screen Multiplayer does not work)

Mod Compatibility:
  • Should work with all content mod
  • May not work well with mods that alter eating/drinking mechanic (Love of Cooking is compatible even with the healing over time mode enabled, feel free to ask me if there are any other mods that may conflict with this)
  • Additional UI element may get blocked if other mods append their UI at the top left corner when hovering above items (compatible with UI Info Suite as it appends to top right corner)
  • Will break if someone mess with daffodil in-game
  • Mod have rather funky interaction with Stardew RPG allow players to farm skill point and break the mod balancing
Recommended Mod: 
  • Since hunger and thirst mechanic create a persistent resource of energy you have to manage, it's advisable to use mod that alter stamina mechanic on a more radical extend (Sprint mods, Stamina Regen mods, preferably on more aggressive setting (drain faster, regen faster)) to prevent these mechanics make each other redundant You can now simply enable the mod's own Stamina rework option (you can still use these mods, just remember to turn this option off)
  • Spice of Life is also recommended so that you will not stick to 1 type of food / drink
  • Another Hunger Mod is NOT recommended as it also add hunger mechanic to the game, as of v0.3.0-alpha this mod should already reach feature parity with AHM

Planned Additions/Changes

  • Balancing, balancing and more balancing, which include tweaking mod's default configuration and adding new items, modifying existing item's stat
  • Add additional buff if environment temperature fall within a certain "comfortable range" so that temperature control device will not be completely useless LOL
  • Polish environment / body temperature mechanic, support more location-dependant temperature
  • Add healing and hydration stat to items from other popular mods (SVE, PPJA, Ridgeside, etc.) 
  • Integration with Ferngill Climate mod
  • Add a nice banner for the mod page cuz why not (I will make one properly trust)
