no broke?

we are the buglings please eat us

oh i can eat bug's now? wow!

i found a bug but a scug ate it

really important question, this work with watcher update?

delicious

Super hope you can work out the grab option! This is a great mod, thank you

@Graygriss and others, I have been trying to implement the grab option but I have been struggling thus far. As for the fish, I'm fairly certain you can already eat them, seeing as they're technically part of the bug (CosmeticInsect) class.

Hey, crazy idea, but what if we could could fish too? I mean the ones in shoreline and stuff. maybe theyd give a little more food considering the added challenge, but i think it would be cool. also a grab button would be nice.

hnnnngggggg god i fucking LOVE eating bugs holy shit

Очень упрощает игру, сделайте хотя бы так, чтобы их надо было ловить как птиц

can you make it so you atleast need to press grab to eat the bugs? walking through a pile of bugs and getting like 5 food pips feels a little cheaty? i dont know

*(and would *often* not let you eat perfectly good bugs!)
misspoke

@riley_ From a design perspective, I'm not certain how best to approach that issue. My instinct is to just ignore it, as eating sparks is pretty amusing in itself, but I understand that can be immersion-breaking (immersion is a big priority for me personally). Disabling eating the FireFly and MiniFly in every modded region would be quite a hassle to code, however, (and would sometimes not let you eat perfectly good bugs!), and allowing the user to disable specific bugs when they needed to would be an unnecessary burden on the user. If you've got any more in-depth suggestions on the issue, please do let me know!

@StephanWeaverOfWorlds Ah, that's a shame. Next time I find myself in Visual Studio I'll add an option to make bug-eating pup-only! If Pups+ doesn't change the fact that pups are technically players, with hands and food pips and everything, it should theoretically play nice.

unfortunately, I don't think it worked- the pups were eating bugs, but so my slugcat (Rivulet). I turned off all things that would let pc slugs eat the bugs, but it didn't seem to properly work. (I'm not sure how this mod plays with Pups+ either?)

I'll give it a shot! thanks! I'll let you know how it works!

@StephanWeaverOfWorlds I'm not sure if that's currently possible, though I reckon if you toggle Specific Slugcat Toggles on, and toggle each of them off, and toggle slugpups eating bugs on-- you just might be able to do that (if you can't, I will make a setting for that!)

is it possible to set it so only slugpups eat the bugs, but the adults won't? I think it'd be a neat detail if the lil guys caught and nommed any lil bug they can get their paws on, but the adults don't bother 'cause its not enough food/too busy to be silly and catch smaller bugs.

oh yeah should probably mention here, update on the bug i found!
you actually can't eat the underhang sparks, i just first encountered that bug when i ate some green floating sparks in moss fields. they're very different from the underhang sparks! they were actually just fireflies recolored to green.
the issue here is that fireflies are edible but most modded regions very often use them as floating sparks (either from fire or electricity) like howling rift and moss fields, or they use a black version of them as floating dust particles.

yummers

finally, an use for the previously useless critters

@Temporary Solutions Yes, there is an option for whether or not Spearmaster can spear bugs to eat them, I just forgot to include that in the workshop description

setting for spearmaster bc he doesnt have mouth to eat bug?

Rotund world support yay! :D

sadge i would also love if we could hold them

Having slugpups eat bugs would be a great idea - maybe they could benefit more from bugs than the adults, and I'm looking forward to the bug collector passage!! Love this mod.

@The Gambler good idea! I'll look into that at some point.

YESSSSSS

Also, there should be a remix thing that allows you to eat bugs even if your full (rotund world specific toggle)

@riley_ I do have... some plans... for Spearmaster. Checking distance from each bug to the nearest Spearmaster spear isn't something I can do, but I have a different idea that I may try to implement.

@C4L0N I tried that at one point during development, but it requires making a new class of PhysicalObject, something I'd prefer not to do at the current point in time when I can just have them auto-eat and avoid dealing with all of that, sorry!

@The Artificer Cat @Stevegabber No, sorry! It works by checking player distance to bugs. I might be able to make slugpups work eventually, though.

You no longer have to eat! the bugs just hop/fly/swim into your mouth!

@Riley_ Let slugcats eat the bugs

bug to report: the slugcats can eat the electrical sparks floating through the air in places like underhang

please let spearmaster stab the bugs for food

Scrumptous protein snack wherever you go

let us manually grab them instead of auto eating

i love eating bug..s.... finally.. i can do it ingame now too!

does this work for pups?

does it make the bugs burnable? for the fire breathing artificer mod

suggestion for the passage name when it gets added: the insectivore.

BUGS!!! OMNOMNOM!!!!

I want to eat bugs omg

yum! infinite food!

Yippie! What a cute mod :)

Oh my god this is amazing
