Realistic Livestock RM V1.3.2 fs25-mods

Description:

Replaces FS25's simple animal clusters with individually tracked animals — each with unique genetics, breeding, diseases, and production traits. This is a maintained version of Arrow-kb’s Realistic Livestock mod. Every animal is tracked separately with its own identity, genetic makeup, health status, and production output. Genetics are inherited through breeding, diseases can spread and require treatment, and production is driven by each animal’s individual traits. All management is accessible via the RL Menu — a dedicated tabbed interface for browsing, trading, moving, filtering, and automating your herds. This version continues the development of the original Realistic Livestock mod by Arrow-kb, who has discontinued further updates. The goal is to keep the mod functional, fix bugs, and improve where needed. Features: - Individual animal tracking with unique identity - Genetics system with heritable traits affecting production - Display of genetics in animal names with configurable detail (average score or full trait breakdown) - Breeding and reproduction with pregnancy mechanics and genetic inheritance - AI insemination system with semen dewars - Disease simulation including infection, treatment, and immunity - Animal monitoring over time - Weight system linked to genetics and feeding - Animal marking and castration - RL Menu: a standalone tabbed interface for all animal management — browsing, moving, selling, buying, AI straw purchases, messages, and trailer loading - Saveable animal filters, cycled with F across menu tabs - Herdsman automation: daily tasks like selling, buying, castrating, naming, AI management, moving, and horse care driven by saved filters - Animal origin country setting for new animals - Dealer controls: select which animals and age groups are offered, and set stock quality (Budget, Standard, Premium) - Daily summary mode for message logs - In-game help pages - Highland cattle bull support - Animal pack system: third-party mods can add new breeds or adjust animal balance - Map support: Hof Bergmann (ducks, geese, cats, rabbits, alpacas, quail) with automatic version compatibility - Map support: Witcombe (UK breeds — Jersey, Gloucestershire Old Spot, Texel, Suffolk, Blue Faced Leicester, plus Hereford heritage) with automatic version compatibility - Map support: Le Mechet (French breeds — Charolaise, Montbeliarde, Simmental, Vosgienne) with automatic version compatibility - Support for butchers using Extended Production Point (EPP) mod - Mod compatibility checks at startup: blocking incompatible mods with a dialog, plus warnings for mods that may degrade gameplay - Compatibility bridges: coexistence with Seasonal Wool Production (Argsy Gaming) without double wool output - Multiplayer support Supported Maps & Packs: RLRM works on nearly any map out of the box. It does not require a specific list. The maps listed below are notable because they add custom animal types or breeds, which need built-in support for full features like genetics, breeding, and reproduction. On other maps, standard animals function normally. Maps: - Hof Bergmann (https://www.lsfarming-mods.com/) — ducks, geese, cats, rabbits, alpacas, quail with full breeding support - Witcombe (https://oxygendavid.itch.io/witcombe-park-farm) — UK breeds (Jersey, Gloucestershire Old Spot, Texel, Suffolk, Blue Faced Leicester) with full breeding support; Hereford heritage profile - Le Mechet (https://farming-simulator.com/mod.php?mod_id=357964) — French breeds (Charolaise, Montbeliarde, Simmental, Vosgienne) with full breeding support (not compatible with Cow Breeds Pack unless using the latest development version, as both replace cow husbandry config) Animal Packs: - Cow Breeds Pack for RLRM by ConGan98 (https://github.com/ConGan98/FS25_CowBreedsRLRM) — additional cattle breeds - Sheep Breeds Pack for RLRM by ConGan98 (https://github.com/ConGan98/FS25_SheepBreedsRLRM) — additional sheep breeds Notes: - Based on Arrow-kb’s Realistic Livestock mod (v1.2.0.5), released under GPL-3 license - Savegame data from the original version is automatically migrated on first load - Font Library mod is no longer required - Incompatible with FS25_EnhancedLivestock, FS25_MoreVisualAnimals, and FS25_EnhancedAnimalSystem Installation: Place FS25_RealisticLivestockRM.zip into your mods folder. To migrate from Arrow-kb’s version, remove FS25_RealisticLivestock.zip and FS25_FontLibrary.zip, back up your savegame, then load — data will migrate automatically. V1.3.2.0 Changes: Mostly a disease-fixes update. Treating diseases now costs money and follows the full course, cured animals stop dying from the disease, and diseases now affect all players in multiplayer. Some bugs remain, but this is a significant step forward in disease management. Development on the disease system continues. It also completes the teardown started in v1.3.0.0: the old animal screen and per-pen herdsman are removed, and all animal management routes now open through the RL Menu. Updating an existing save? Treating diseases will incur costs, and leftover per-pen herdsman settings are cleared after the first save post-update.
