"Guide to Obtaining the Auto-Petter in Fields of Mistria"

Managing livestock in *Fields of Mistria* can be a lucrative venture, but the daily task of petting them can become tedious. If you're looking to streamline your farm life, consider integrating an auto-petter into your gameplay.

-----------------------------------

Unfortunately, the base version of *Fields of Mistria* does not come equipped with an auto-petter feature. This means players must manually pet their livestock each day. However, there's a solution for those willing to venture into the world of mods.

I recommend the "Animal Friends" mod by annanomoly, available on Nexus Mods. This mod not only automates petting but also takes care of feeding your animals. To utilize this mod, you'll need the "Mods of Mistria Installer," a necessary tool for activating the mod. Skipping this step will prevent the mod from working.

To install the mod, follow these steps:

  • Create a new folder named "Mods" in your *Fields of Mistria* directory.
  • Download the "AnimalFriends.zip" file and place it in the Mods folder.
  • Extract the contents of the zip file.
  • Delete or move the original zip file to a different location.
  • Launch the Mods of Mistria Installer to complete the installation process.

The Animal Friends mod offers a variety of features beyond just the auto-petter. You can enable an auto-feeder, a friendship multiplier, and a feature to prevent friendship loss. The friendship multiplier boosts the number of hearts your animals gain, while the prevent friendship loss function ensures that the hearts you've earned don't diminish.

To adjust the settings, locate the "AnimalFriends.json" file in the unzipped mod folder. This file is a simple text document where you can toggle features by changing "false" to "true." For example, to activate the auto-petter, you would modify the line to: ["auto-pet": true]. To deactivate a feature, simply change "true" back to "false."

The friendship multiplier requires a numerical input, ranging from 1 to 100. Setting it to the highest value can expedite your bonding process with your animals. To revert to normal, set it back to 1.

Upon installation, the mod comes with default settings where auto-pet and auto-feed are disabled, but it does increase the heart points from petting by five times and activates the prevent friendship loss feature automatically.

To uninstall the mod safely, use the Mods of Mistria Installer rather than simply deleting the mod folder. This helps prevent any corruption or errors in your save files.

That covers all you need to know about implementing an auto-petter in *Fields of Mistria*. Always remember to back up your save files before modding to ensure a stable gaming experience.
