Hospitals have these rooms in them that are basically cafeterias, with fruits and vegetables and some processed food on the tables.

You can find bundles of wheat in them.

The presence of a predator should scare off the normal wildlife or maybe the spawning of a zombie animal will cause all non-zombies to flee off screen and despawn. I'm only thinking of this so the outside of a shelter that the player has been in doesn't get too overcrowded with wildlife.

[Tawa]

I like that idea. It would help with the cougars and dogs running around my hobo shack homestead in the woods.

So does that mean I could - theoretically - cage a zombie, put it in my yard, and keep them squirrels offa muh lawn?

If I do that and leave a giant pile of tasty steaks on my porch, will that train the bears to ignore the gross zombie menace, in order to get at said tasty steaks?  If I thus take extra steaks and hurl them at zombies, can I make the bears maul them to retrieve their lunch.

I was thinking you just call the flee check when the zombie spawns. otherwise it would be trying to have every animal check every other animal which will slow down the game too much I think.

I thought this wasn't the cataclysm thread while reading the last page.. I had thought an emotion thread turned very dark.

The Cataclysm Dark Days Ahead Thread: We're like other threads turned very dark

   Also to note my character hasn't been able to get a good nights sleep in a couple days because before he has a chance something spawns on him. I literally can not seem to get him to go lower then tired because any time I try to sleep in my car something else will attack me in no short amount of time.

So it looks like the item blacklist mod fell through, because it was poorly thought out and too many people were opposed to the idea.

It's a shame, because it could have been expanded into a system that would give people a lot more control over the items that spawn in their games without having to take up modding. I still hope that something along those lines shows up someday, maybe in the form of more in-depth worldgen options. I think it could have value not just for removing "controversial" stuff, but as a form of gameplay customization.

Please take a look at the blacklist, it's just a list of items, it's in no way "modding". https://github.com/CleverRaven/Cataclysm-DDA/pull/7890/files
If this is super important to you, yet you can't manage to put that simple text file together, I'm going to look at you funny.

It has been?  When I got an experimental maybe yesterday or the day before to make my recipe.json split pull I noticed a bunch of mods called No(blank) I thought those were the blacklist mods.  Since all they contain is "type": "ITEM_BLACKLIST",  and a list of items they remove.

I was just going by what was said in the blacklist discussion topic on the CDDA forums. If that's true, I stand corrected.

Eating the same thing over and over again, should really just kill you through malnutrition.

MEAT

Yeah, humans can go full carnivore just fine. It's full vegetarian that has some issues, and even then you're not likely to die as you are to simply be a bit unhealthy and more prone to diseases getting you.

[Knight of Fools]

Eating nothing but Ramen is probably not a good idea, though.

[Tawa]

You can, however, maintain a balanced diet with a combination of wild veggies found in underbrush, cooked meat from tasty kitties, and potentially fruit juice from mashed up apples and stuff.

[etgfrog]

A balanced diet can be maintained in real life by also eating the various other parts of animals, for example liver and bone marrow. Now if you only eat one type of animal that might start to be a problem.
