The KCD2 Nutrition Mod

This mod enhances Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2's survival mechanics by adding a comprehensive nutrition and hydration system. It's designed for players seeking a more immersive and realistic roleplaying experience where Henry's nutritional choices have meaningful impacts on his performance.


- Introduces a complete nutrition system that tracks Henry's consumption of proteins, vegetables, fruits, and hydration
- Implements debuffs for nutritional deficiencies, including scurvy (from lack of fruit), malnutrition (from protein deficiency), sluggishness (from vegetable deficiency), and dehydration
- Provides meaningful buffs for maintaining a balanced diet, with appropriate bonuses for eating complete, well-rounded meals
- Categorizes all food items in the game according to their nutritional content, making food choices more strategic and realistic
- Encourage realistic eating and drinking patterns without becoming burdensome or distracting from the main gameplay


This mod is perfect for immersion-focused players who enjoy survival style games and want their in-game choices to reflect medieval realities. It adds depth to everyday activities like travelling between towns, to support an experience more in line with the reality of the time. Plan your trips to ensure you have drinking water and decent travel rations for good health. Ideal for role players who want to experience the challenges of maintaining health in a historically accurate medieval setting.


The nutrition system tracks four key aspects of your diet:
- Protein Intake: Meats, fish, eggs, and cheese maintain your strength and stamina
- Vegetable Consumption: Various vegetables and herbs enhance agility and overall health
- Fruit Consumption: Fruits prevent scurvy and maintain vitality
- Hydration: Regularly consuming liquids prevents dehydration and maintains performance

Each nutritional component provides buffs when maintained and debuffs when neglected.
The system is designed to be intuitive and realistic - you won't need to obsessively track nutrition, but maintaining a varied diet will significantly improve Henry's capabilities in the field. Watch for status indicators showing your current nutritional state, when the gold has expired, a grey debuff is applied, and you will need to eat or drink accordingly to have it removed.


Default version is In Game and Inventory - Shows the buffs/debuffs both in the Inventory Buff area, and on screen during gameplay, which is used when you subscribe for this mod. Alternate versions are up on Nexus Mods if you prefer not to have the status indicators on screen during gameplay:

- Inventory Only - Shows the buffs/debuffs both in the Inventory Buff area only
- Hardcore - No visible buff indicators. Keep track of the time and eat/drink appropriately without any visual assistance

You will have to download the alternate versions and replace this mod with them if you want the different visual behaviour:

This mod works alongside The KCD2 Cooking Mod and The KCD2 Camping Mod, and is designed to enhance the role playing experience in KCD2 collectively. It's specifically designed to complement the KCD2 Cooking Mod, allowing you to create nutritionally balanced recipes with enhanced game play benefits that come from cooking decent meals.
