Wild Animals Mate

Description
The spiritual successor to Denimfives Wild Reproduction mod with even less patches. Makes it possible for wild animals to mate and have offspring for sustainable hunting. Does NOT modify fertilised egg deterioration.

With this mod you can control the rate of wild animal reproduction yourself as base reproduction is a bit OP in the long run. Setting slider for rate does NOT affect colony animal reproduction rates ONLY wild animals.

Here is why you need to change the default rate:
At a default of 0.5 days or every 12 hours Muffalo can mate with 50% of pregnancy, have a 6.6 days gestation period with always 1 offspring and are mature at 20 days. After one year (60 days) you should be close to a 100 Muffalos (half-half for adults and juvenile).

Chicken (or Ducks) can go from one couple to around 1200 adults in one year, because they lay one egg per day no matter what, and all egg laying animals have a 100% chance of fertilizing when they mate.

Its important to note that reproduction rates are calculated as the percentage chance to have that thought every hour, so lower chances tend to see a lot lower mate rates.

Fully replaces Wild Reproduction mod. Should not conflict with anything not even wild reproduction mod (but it will make my settings slider useless).

Thank you denimfive for your awesome and very simple mod. Your ingenuity saved me a ton of time with this one!

Anyone else want a side mod for this that adds a 'total [animal name] on map' limit? I dont exactly want 300 thumbos just because I stopped hunting as hard due to having a good food count.
