About this mod
Aedenthorn's Auto Feed mod, but with an option to restrict the container type(s) used and to allow feeding from containers only when breeding might occur. Lets tameable animals eat from nearby containers. Original mod found here: https://www.nexusmods.com/valheim/mods/985 or https://valheim.thunderstore.io/package/aedenthorn_nexus/AutoFeed.

With this mod installed, you can place a container near an animal pen to let your animals eat from the container.
I was inspired to add additional options to Aedenthorn's Auto Feed after installing Balrond-Astafaraios' Trough (now deprecated, but previously available here https://www.nexusmods.com/valheim/mods/1877 or https://valheim.thunderstore.io/package/CookieMilk/Food_Trough). I wanted only to use that container for feeding while safely allowing other chests to be near the animals for reserved feed storage.
This is modified based on the code provided by Aedenthorn at https://github.com/aedenthorn/ValheimMods/tree/master/AutoFeed.
You can set the following in addition to the config opinions in Aedenthorn's mod:

You can set the following in addition to the config opinions in Aedenthorn's mod:
- Types of containers to allow as feeders. Great for use with the Balrond Trough or when a modded container has a name that is incompatible with Aedenthorn's original mod.
- Whether to log container names to the BepInEx LogOutput.log. This is useful for finding container names to allow but should normally be false as it will spam the log.
- Whether animals should only eat if conditions are right for breeding. NOTE: This doesn't guarantee they will breed once they eat. Before an animal chooses a container to eat from, it checks for at least one potential partner and whether the limit on that type of animal hasn't been reached in the nearby vicinity (around the animal or the container). As animals move around, the game's breeding checks might later see too many animals in one area. This setting will, however, greatly reduce the use of feed containers when the animals can't breed.
