Summary

SUMMARY: Mods "Add some sweet monsters to My Sweet Cataclysm"

Purpose of change

• Mutations can affect monster hostility
• Add sweet monsters that spawn from junk food
• Bump the amount of candy in the world
• Fields can specify the monster immune to it

Zombies ignore sweet monsters, which in turn are not too hostile toward normal humans, unless provoked, however they are quite interested into sugar kins.

Describe the solution

I changed how the default_container entry is loaded, it now allows to use "null" as a container to remove the entry when using copy-from.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Figuring out why "delete" doesn't work for "container" and try to fix it. But that seemed like a much bigger task.

Testing

Debug spawn the marshmallow or the cookies,
wait 20 days
leave overmap and come back
Monsters do spawn

Wait 20 days
Teleport around the world
Lots of sweet monster in grocery stores
If you wait more the evolved version of monster spawn instead

Additional context

This might need further re balance, but for now it seems to work as intended.

Sadly sweet monsters don't melt in the rain. Giving monsters more interaction with the world and making a better egg mechanic might some worthy goal for 0.F

Ok. Do you need lore for this? I could see the blob metabolising large sugar deposits, into something that it goes crazy over. XD

[Fris0uman]

This is a small silly mod, I have some idea for lore but that will come later if at all. The basis is that the cataclysm gave life to sugary candy and junk food for obscure reason, and the zombies seem to ignore them.
