Adds an adorable pet cat to the game! Cats will walk around your base, attack hostile biters and meow! You'll no longer be all alone with these adorable friends everywhere.

Lure a cat to your side in a machine (or greenhouse!) with some tasty catfood (Raw Fish and Water), an alluring sound (Programmable Speaker), an unresistible cat toy (Laser Turret) and a pleasant litter box (Wooden Box and Stone/Sand/Gravel). Maybe you'll get lucky and get a cat or two!

Settings let you adjust if you or trains can collide with cats and whether satellites require Cats as an ingredient (that satellite needs a pilot right? let's imagine we are sending the cats home).

Launch a cat into space with a rocket ship to discover a secret cat-related mechanic!

For now, cats, they temporarily turn into biters when they attack, which adds to their magical mystique and natural origin. Are they related to biters? Who knows!

This mod works with the vanilla game. It has special compatibility with

  • Krastorio 2 where cat luring takes place inside a greenhouse rather than an assembly machine and sets the recipe to require sand (recommended)

  • Industrial Revolution 3 where cat luring takes place inside an alluring mixer and sets the recipe to require gravel and a pulse laser (recommended)

  • Jakzie's Just Another Greenhouse which also moves cat luring to a greenhouse (also recommended! )

  • Jakzie's Sand & Glass which replaces the stone for sand

  • Milestones celebrates the first cat you manage to lure!

If you require cats for satellites then raw fish become a new important raw resource and cat luring acts as a raw fish sink, which can be interesting. I recomend adding a mod like Advanced Fishing to get a consistent supply of fish to make cats more consistently and the Repair Fish mod so fish can also be used to heal the Cat instead of a repair pack.

Special compatibility with Bob/Angel and Bio Industries is planned and I am open to more ideas and suggestions for cat-related mechanics. Unfortunately adding an equipment grid to the cat seems beyond the game limitations for now but I am sure other things can be figured out.

This mod is a rework of the mod Catmod-Reborn by ase1590 and heavily borrows from that mod. Credit to Danielv123 for the MIT licensed artwork.
