[b]Why This Mod?:[/b]
If you have a colony with a hive infestation eating your framerate, have mods that cause animals to reproduce out of control, or just have an older CPU struggling to render all the onscreen pawns. I myself see 200-300 more TPS using this vs without.
[b]What Animal Control does:[/b]
Animal Control is a mod that allows you to limit the number of wild animals on a RimWorld map, and limiting the amount of growth a hive can have, however more variables will be added later.
[b]Current Settings:[/b]
Performance Hook: Planned limit override based on TPS, unimplemented, currently just a debug data poll
Prefer Large Animals: Self explanatory.
Max Animals: Self explanatory
Prey Ratio: Most Animals, anything that is generally passive (e.g Squirrels, Cows, Muffalos)
Predator Ratio: Amount of animals that hunt other animals, low by default.
Pack Animal Ratio: Amount of animals that can carry items in Caravans.
Polling Rate (only visible with Perf Hook On): Sets how often an animal get checked for/deleted.
[b]Updates:[/b]
7-28-2025
The BIG FIX Update, settings now properly sync in real time, performance hitches are now ironed out, and the mod is updated to 1.6!
5-9-2025
Added Harmony Support, has better resiliency I would suggest using it, otherwise ACTRL may stop working after reloading saves.
5-8-2025
Changed function to 'Thanos Snap' mode, more performant and can run less often, may cause hitching.
5-8-2025
Optimized code cycle, now runs 300x faster allowing for stable <1000 Tick operation
5-7-2025
Added Polling Rate to fine tune speed at which animals delete, set currently at good balance between performance/speed.
5-6-2025
Added ratios for fine tuning of animal variety, no real issues come from the total ratio being less than 100%, Implementing the lower limit is just slightly performance heavy.
Added size preference for those who want more big animals on the map.

To Mycelius for the original code, at this point the original code has been entirely replaced by my own solutions, but his mod was an inspiration.
