This mod was inspired by Optimization: Meats made by Owlchemist.

This mod reduces the meat variety in the game.

So.. Who would want this?
- People who don't care about all animal meat because all animal meat will end up being treated the same.
- People who want to simplify their meat storage situation.
- People who use animal mods, but want to benefit from a slight performance increase. due to fewer defs.


Compatibility
- Most mods are compatible except other meat optimization mods.
- 'Meats that shouldn't be merged' doesn't merge into one automatically! (Aerofleet meat from Alpha Animals for example)
- If you're having problems with the mod, please let me know!


Known Issue
- Ideology DLC: Be careful when you create your own Ideo. If your ideo has venerated animals, Mood debuff: 'Ate venerated animal meat' won't work. Since these meats are merged into one. And if the animal was cow, your pawns will get mood debuff when eat meals consist of raw meat.

Save game compatible?
- Basically adding or removing this mod from mid-save will cause hash collision error.
But you can use Mid-saver Saver for the hash collision error! Try use 'Fix hash collision' method.

Load order
- It really doesn't matter. Auto sort is fine for it!
but I recommended...
Core, Royalty, Ideology
(Other animal, food mods)
This mod
RocketMan

or try to use RimPy!

For Modders
- If you want to add your races or meats to exclude from the optimization, then try to make patch like...
... <match Class="PatchOperationAdd"> <!-- If the race drops the meats below, Then excludes the race from the meat optimization. --> <xpath>/Defs/AlienMeatTest.MeatListDef[defName="WhiteList"]/meats</xpath> <value> <li>Meat_Alien_Moyo</li> </value> </match> ... <match Class="PatchOperationAdd"> <!-- Excludes the races below from the meat optimization. You don't have to make it both.--> <xpath>/Defs/AlienMeatTest.MeatListDef[defName="WhiteList"]/races</xpath> <value> <li>Alien_Anty</li> </value> </match> ...

- This mod has a harmony postfix patch for 'ThingDefGenerator_Meat.ImpliedMeatDefs()'.

The mods are repacked as is, without any additional software, malware, or bloatware added. To check for viruses, use a reliable antivirus or upload the archive to a website like virustotal.com. Anyway, It's always a good practice to keep backups of your saves in case of mod incompatibility .

There is a folder in the .zip archive. To install the mod, move the entire folder (not just its contents) into 'Mods' folder located under your RimWorld root isntallation folder.
So, for steam version of the game, the path would look like this: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\RimWorld\Mods
For any other distribution, firstly locate your rimworld installation path and then unpack the archive into the 'Mods' folder.
