[FS19] Increasing the max. animal capacity in your husbandries

Hello there!
Down below we added a handy script with which you can increase the max. amount of animals in your husbandries (currently limited to 511).
It consists of the following two code lines and will have to be set up to be loaded through your modDesc.xml:
Code: Select all
HusbandryModuleAnimal.SEND_NUM_BITS = 12
print("loaded")
Please keep in mind though that this will NOT WORK ON CONSOLES since we cannot load any external scripts there. Of course, playing in MP (as host/client or dedicated server) will also require all participating parties to have this mod installed in their game folder.

Will you be at least thinking to increase the max number of animals in both small and large pens for consoles?
PC has manual ways to work around things but as you know we are quite limited to your decisions on consoles.
Limiting the max number of animals in pens has never made any sense wahtsoever from the begining.
There were players specifically playing FS17 for huge animal farms like tens of thousands of pigs, sheep, cows.
Why did you feel the need to take this away from players in the first place?
This really is a subject you need to re-think in a lot of peoples opinion.
Thank you for your time and concern in advance

How is possible "Toggle Render Area" when you select ClearArea, LevelArea,... in the animals?
Can you quote a script for GE with this function?

Would you be able to give us an example of it written in the ModDesc.xml?
I have no idea how to put it in there and would love to increase the animal capacity. Thank you!

I just stuck this into a Mod.xml file at the end of the code and all animal pens disappeared. What are we supposed to do with this? Didn't tell us where to paste it, dummy.

GIANTS are not "dumm[ies]", this was posted within tutorials, aimed towards people who know how to add files
The script needs to be loaded as an extra source file from your modDesc
Code: Select all
<extraSourceFiles>
<sourceFile filename="ChangeMaxAnimals.lua"/>
</extraSourceFiles>

There are multiple steps needed:
1. Download the above mentioned changeMaxAnimals.lua
2. add this file to your animal pen mod zip file next to modDesc.xml
3. add those three lines to the modDesc.xml making sure that </modDesc> still is the last line.
Code: Select all
<extraSourceFiles>
<sourceFile filename="ChangeMaxAnimals.lua"/>
</extraSourceFiles>
4. open your animal pens mod xml file and change maxNumAnimals to any number up to 4095.
If you want to increase number of animals for pens that are included in the map, everything is the same except that you have to modify the modDesc.xml of the map.
