The Animal Friends mod by annanomoly on Nexus Mods provides an auto-petting function, along with automatic feeding. Crucially, you'll also need the Mods of Mistria Installer – this is essential for the mod to work correctly.

Here's how to install the Animal Friends mod:

1. Create a new folder named "Mods" within your *Fields of Mistria* game directory.
2. Download the AnimalFriends.zip file and place it inside the "Mods" folder.
3. Extract the contents of the zip file. You can then delete or move the original zip file.
4. Run the Mods of Mistria Installer to install the mod.

The Animal Friends mod offers several customizable features: auto-petting, auto-feeding, a friendship multiplier, and a setting to prevent friendship loss. The multiplier increases the hearts your animals gain, while the friendship loss prevention ensures those hearts remain.

To adjust settings, locate the AnimalFriends.json file within the extracted mod folder. This file is a simple text document. To enable a feature, change "false" to "true". For example, to enable auto-feeding, change "auto-feed": false to "auto-feed": true. Disabling a feature reverses this process.

The friendship multiplier requires a numerical input between 1 and 100. A value of 100 bypasses the need for bonding, while 1 disables the feature.

Note: The default settings upon installation include a five-times multiplier on heart points gained per petting, automatic activation of friendship loss prevention, but auto-petting and auto-feeding are initially disabled.

To remove the mod, avoid simply deleting the folder. Instead, use the Mods of Mistria Installer to uninstall it properly, preventing potential save file corruption.

Remember to back up your save game before installing any mods. While generally stable, a backup is always a good precaution.
