Malnutrition Reworked

A complete rework of how malnutrition affects pawns.
No more fast, boring deaths. Instead, starvation becomes a slow, terrifying descent into weakness, helplessness, and eventual collapse.

This mod is perfect for storytellers, prison camps, or anyone wanting more realism and intensity around starvation mechanics.

💀 What This Mod Does:

🔧 Malnutrition now takes 3× longer to reach maximum severity

Pawns don’t just drop dead — they deteriorate, painfully and gradually.

📉 Stronger and progressive debuffs at each stage

The more malnourished they get, the more they suffer — physically and mentally.

🛏️ Changes how unconsciousness works

Pawns won’t just collapse at Extreme Malnutrition. Instead, they slowly require more and more rest to stay on their feet.

🧠 Malnutrition Stages & Effects

⚪ Trivial –> +50% Rest need • Trouble with Research & Mining • Slower Immunity gain
🟡 Minor –> Harder task performance • Begins to weaken in combat
🟠 Moderate –> Suffers dizziness • Slowed even during light labor
🔴 Severe –> Falls unconscious from exhaustion more often
⚫ Extreme –> Very slow • Constantly collapsing • Can randomly die at any time (survival up to 3 days possible)

✔️ Works with RimWorld 1.4 – 1.5 and 1.6 as well.

🧍‍♂️ Starving pawns won’t just instantly die — they become useless, vulnerable, and unstable

🔒 Great for prison colonies where you want to break pawns without killing them

🧬 Creates tense survival stories where every hour counts

🧠 Encourages better food logistics, emergency planning, and medical backup
