Yes I did. I'm not an artist nor am I a programmer. It's basically the original VFEI2 thumbnail as you can see. All I did was patch the og mod. Nothing more. Nor did I claim the thumbnail nor contents of VFEI2 as my own. The thumbnail I care nothing about so much as what the patch/mod does. I created this not for attention, nor to get famous, but simply as qol patch/mod for myself that anyone was welcome to use or to modify as they see fit. Which was stated in the description. If you have suggestions for me to add/subtract whatever I'm happy to learn to code that and add it to this.

Go fuck yourselves and leave the mod author alone he is better than either of you

holy sloppy thumbnail, just putting some actual art thru ur shittifier ai

did you run really somebody's art through AI for that thumbnail lol

I agree with you 100%. I thought the exact same thing and couldn't find an answer anywhere about this or the default behavior. So I decided to make it myself. This is my first ever mod so if there are any issues or if all yall have any recommendations please let me know!

Thanks for this. IMO I think it should be this way in the original mod but I'm glad you made this. It makes total sense to use insectoids to hunt for the colony, not just for themselves.

A hive-minded group of insects would be hunting for the whole hive instead of on their own individually

I see thank you for explaining

If you are referring to the original mods default behavior, they will only hunt the animal closest to the hive, marked or not, if they are hungry (<10% food need if i remember right), and there is no insect jelly, or valid non rotting carcass nearby (theyre lazy and will go for easiest first.) Otherwise, they will wander. They also do not pack hunt. It's also random as to which insect goes. It could be the adult or it could be the fresh larva (my testing found it's usually the fresh larva that goes to hunt to feed the adults)

Great question. This is supposed to be as close to vanilla/ VFEI2 as possible. As such, if there is no food, they will hunt both like VFE is originally designed (wildlife closest to hive regardless if it is marked or not), and then this "patch" i designed will override the default behavior forcing the hunt if you have marked wildlife to be hunted. If the hunt is forced, they will eat the wildlife they killed prior to hauling it.

Will they also hunt when hungry and there is no food
