Extreme Player Weights

Description
This mod adds two new traits to the game!

Morbidly Obese:
Starting Weight of 130kg.
Maxed out calories (3700) at game start.

You'd better start eating healthy now that hell has broke loose!

Deathly Emaciated:
Starting Weight of 35.15kg.
Bottomed out calories (-2200) at game start.

You desperately need something to eat, you have roughly ~3 hours before you starting dying from starvation.
Lucky for you the apocalypse has begun and you can take what you need to live!

IMPORTANT:

Due to the way the backend Java code handles player weight these traits will immediately be written over by Obese or Emaciated depending on your selection. This means your character screen will not show these traits.
Furthermore, I cannot add any special effects from these traits as they will always use the stats of Obese / Emaciated for character ability calculations.
These traits just serve as a way to set your weights to their min and max at the start, which provides an extra challenge in of itself.
These traits must be added to a NEW character.

Finally, these traits are mutually exclusive with the following other traits:

Morbidly Obese conflicts with...
Obese
Overweight
Underweight
Very Underweight
Emaciated
Deathly Emaciated
Fit
Athletic
Light Eater

** Unimplemented Conflicts - It is conceivable that the character used to have these skills **
Jogger
Gymnast

Deathly Emaciated conflicts with...
Morbidly Obese
Obese
Overweight
Underweight
Very Underweight
Emaciated
Athletic
Stout
Strong

** Unimplemented Conflicts - It is conceivable that the character was starving and did not have access to food **
Hearty Appetite

This mod is the first one I've ever made for any game. I made it in preparation for a video series I'll be doing if I'm free enough with work to do it! I'll also be adding further mods in relation to that in the future as part of a collection.

I'd also like to thank the creators of the More Traits mod as examining their mod's contents greatly helped me understand how to implement my own traits in relation to character weight, and the overall PZ modding process.

If any issues or bugs arise please let me know in the comments.

@The Pillow Monster Honestly I think your best bet is to couple this with the furry mod

@Horse gaming except that food is rather easy to come across unless you've modified the loot rates in any way, you can only lose 1kg in one day but you can theoretically gain 2-3kg a day with the right food, which makes the low weight traits easier to overcome if you can find calories, and since perishable stuff will rot you might as well be eating it all anyway, then there's other sources like fishing and trapping. The high weight traits give you more time to set up but also lock you into a set amount of suffering, whereas the low weight traits can suck but can be fixed much faster if you either know how to deal with it or get lucky with spawns. But the high weight traits do reduce the amount of mental work you have to do, and in a game this expansive (especially with mods lol) that can definitely be huge in the right situations

Fun fact you cant die from being obese but you can if you dont have enough fat on your bones, meaning the morbidly obese is way more forgiving than emaciated

Morbidly Obese is unrealistic in game and poorly balanced. -5 fitness puts it at 0, which makes unfit 10 free points

Why do these give only 13 points but overweight and emaciated, less severe, give 18?

nice names that you gave your characters.
