About
Custom Chores doesn't do anything on it's own unless you just want to use the console commands to perform them (which is kind of like a Cheats menu). Paired with Helpful Spouses, and your spouse may perform one or more chore each day (customizable). With Help For Hire you can subscribe to chores, and gold will be deducted each morning to perform chores for you.

The built-in chores currently available are:

• BirthdayGift - On an NPCs birthday, your spouse will give you a gift that they like or love.
• FeedTheAnimals - Animals in Barns/Coops will be fed.
• LoveThePets - Your pet's water bowl will be filled.
• MakeBreakfast - Spouse will give you a breakfast item in the morning.
• PetTheAnimals - Animals will be loved.
• RepairTheFences - Fences will be repaired.
• WaterTheCrops - Hoed dirt will be watered.
• WaterTheSlimes - Water troughs in slime hutches will be filled.
  

Prequisites
Depending on the chores you want to enable in your game, you'll need to add Custom Chore content packs to your Mods folder.
Needs to be used with Helpful Spouses and/or Help for Hire for chores to actually be done in the morning depending on your preference.

Configuration Options
Each Custom Chore content pack has some level of configurability in it's chore.json file. You can customize the picture that shows up in the Help For Hire UI by replacing the assets/image.png file with your own. Additionally, dialogue for HelpfulSpouses can be found in each chore's i18n file whether to customize or translate.

Help Wanted!
I'm always looking for suggestions on new chores that can be added.

Writers
I'll graciously accept and credit any volunteers who can write some nice dialog for the various spouses/chores.
This call for help goes for all languages too since the mod supports localization.

Artists
I took screenshots for each chore which is what shows up in the Help for Hire UI. I'd love to have something more unique there, but I just lack the skills to do this on my own.

Modders
This mod provides an API to add additional custom chores to the game. See the source code for some examples. All chores were implemented using the Custom Chores API.
