Foxes Aren't Suicidal

Beskrivning
This reduces the {maxPreyBodySize} of foxes, preventing them from preying on humans (such as your colonists) or large animals.

For the sake of realism, it also changes the {foodType} to make them omnivores and egg-eaters instead of strict carnivores.

It breaks my suspension of disbelief that the foxes in RimWorld will prey on humans. In real life, they are opportunistic. Their diet consists of insects, rodents, birds, eggs and plants. We never hear of man-eating foxes because there aren't any. Foxes would not survive as a species if they readily attacked humans or animals bigger than themselves.

Foxes are afraid of humans and they can only barely hurt an adult. Check out this Amazing Fox Rescue Video. About 1 minute in the fox bites the guy and he comments on how it does not have a very strong bite. I've seen a different vid where a guy is trying to release a fox, but gets bitten on the hand. It runs away the moment it is no longer trapped. And it barely broke the skin on his hand.

Compatibility & Updates:

This uses the xpath patching system, so it should be compatible with anything and everything.

Saved Games & Uninstalling:

It should work without having to start a new game. Uninstalling should not cause an issue, either.

Special thanks to NoImageAvailable for the idea.

For anyone who still wants this, but wants it working with 1.5, you need to change how it applies the patch.

Select the mod in the mod list, and then Advanced > Open Folder. In here route to Patches and open the .xml in your text editor of choice

Locate and change the following:
Class="PatchOperationInsert" to Class="PatchOperationReplace" (line 5)
/Defs/ThingDef[@Name="ThingBaseFox"]/race/predator to /Defs/ThingDef[@Name="ThingBaseFox"]/race/maxPreyBodySize (line 6)

Save this file. Then go to the root folder for the mod > About and edit about.xml to include
<supportedVersions><li>1.5</li></supportedVersions> under the <url></url> elements.

The previous version simply added the element onto foxes, but it seems they now already have it (set to 0.5 by default), and this mod was adding the element again, causing the exception.

Same as AlyFox I must have non-suicidal foxes!

Also wondering if a 1.1 update is planned.

In Rimworld, every thing can be manhunting.

Now my foxes are dying in a battle with a rat. XD

Will this work for 1.1? As a fox myself, I must have non-suicidal foxes :O

I just pushed a very minor update to correct a yellow error. This should have no impact on games, either way. It just removes a harmless error. Specifically, I changed <targetVersion> to <supportedVersions>:
<targetVersion> in mod About.xml is deprecated! Use <supportedVersions> tag instead. (example: <supportedVersions><li>1.0</li></supportedVersions>)

Nice mod and realistic mod but I always found it funny the things that people will pick to consider unreal in Rimworld.
