[B41/B42] Temperature Affects Food Spoilage Rate

Build 41 & Build 42.

World temperature affects the food spoilage rate as you experience seasonal and day-to-day variations. Compatible with everything, works in multiplayer, works with existing items, temperature-dependent decay time/spoilage rate updates every in-game hour. Sandbox settings included.

The example picture has been created with the help of Eris' Food Expiry (for B42 it is better to use More Item Information), which shows the remaining freshness and time until the food is completely rotten.

The game does not differentiate between items left outside and inside, where it is typically warmer, which is a limitation for this mod, but has been accounted for to the best of my ability.

Items do not freeze unless are in the freezer, same as vanilla.

Extra Notes:
Because the refrigeration effectiveness sandbox setting is a flat multiplier against the decay timer, it is also adjusted to best fit realistic expectations. If I was to leave the settings alone, your food would spoil quicker if it's hotter outside. It is not possible to make food spoil faster in a refrigerator than outside, so when in doubt, use the fridge.

I would recommend using Surviving Through the Seasons to make the year last less than 365 in-game days so that you can actually experience all the seasonal variations through your average playthrough length. I would also suggest KYR Real Weather with the base minimum temperature to -4°C if you want the fairly typical real-life winter lows of Kentucky.
