======> 🩸 ABOUT | READ ME FIRST 🩸 <======
This mod lets you pull out or produce Hemogen when butchering corpses, a practical way to make the most of every resource at hand.
Think of it as carefully drawing out the last remaining drops from the body, honoring what's provided without waste. No more depending only on live pawns or complex setups, when you've got a ready pile of "donors" right there. If you're butchering anyway, it's a simple step to maximize your harvest with calm efficiency. 🔪🩸

===> ❤️ MOD SETTINGS | THE HEART OF THE MOD <===
(1) The Master Control System
<=======================>
Formerly the "Master Toggle" (renamed because this sounds cooler), this allows you to completely shut down or activate the mod's functionality. Instead of uninstalling and reinstalling to test things or change your playstyle mid-run, just flip the switch. I'm a fan of giving users total control.

(2) Output Configuration (Hemogen Categories)
<=====================================>
This is where you decide exactly what drops from which corpse. For example, if you're butchering an animal (Hare, Thrumbo, Bear), you can set it to drop standard Hemogen or the Animal Hemogen from VRE - Sanguophage.
--------- SPACE DIVIDER FOR READABILITY ---------
If you have Vanilla Races Expanded - Sanguophage installed, your options expand significantly. It's highly recommended to run both mods together.
New defaults for VRE - Sanguophage:
- Animals ➔ Hemogen Pack (Animal)
- Humanoids ➔ Hemogen Pack (Corpse)
- Sanguophages ➔ Hemogen Pack (Sanguophage)
--------- SPACE DIVIDER FOR READABILITY ---------
I also built a custom detection list for anything "vampiric". If the mod detects a Sanguophage, Malachai (Alpha Genes), or various xenotypes from VRE - Sanguophage, Meta's Genelines - Vampires, Big and Small - Vampires and the Undead and Whiteglove's Hemokomori Xenotype.
It'll automatically use the special Sanguophage category. Butchering something special should feel special

(3) Yield & Quantity Menu
<====================>
Total control over the "how much".
- Butchery Efficiency Scaling: Ties the yield to your pawn's stats. If they're a pro (>100%), they get more. If they're a hack (<100%), they might waste some.
- Manual Mode (Default): Set a direct yield (1-10 packs). I capped it at 10 because, honestly, stacks get messy after that.
- BaseBodySize Mode: The "Pro" choice. This calculates yield automatically based on size. A Thrumbo should give more than a squirrel.
[list]
- Size < 1.0 = 1 pack
- Size >= 1.0 and < 1.5 = 2 packs
- Every 0.5 past 1.0 adds +1 pack.
[*] Extraction Success Chance: Pure RNG logic for those who like a gamble.
[*] Rotten Corpse Yield: Works with mods like "Butcher Rotten". As of the 04/10/26 update, you don't even need extra mods for the slider to show up!
