When using this mod, consumable items (food, alcohol and cigarettes) will stack in your inventory, similar to items like ammo or hypos.

Note: This mod was ripped off from inspired by Christine's excellent fan missions.

Disclaimer: This mod works by calling a script from Nameless Voice's NVScript. His script does the actual work.

Hooray!

with stacking, food items are easily the best healing items in the game, something what was probably not intended.

So why not nerf the values?

From +1 health per pack of chips to what?

that was actually somewhat funny.

*backs away slowly*

Huh?

bonus objective: make the console print "health already full" when trying to use snacks at full health.

also, for anyone looking to use this mod, do note that this will throw the game balance off - the orig food items are not stackable for a reason.

That is an interesting idea. The game does not do that, not for snacks or mad hypos, and not if you are running adaob or vanilla. But, Christine's fan missions will refuse to use a snack if your health is already full. But, her missions will let you use a med hypo at full health. I don't know if it makes sense to have the med hypos act differently than the snacks in that regard. I guess people just need to be careful and pay attention to what they are doing.

On the balance, you are right of course, especially in the early game and more especially on impossible difficulty. All those snacks laying around the 2nd MedSci map, endurance/health level still low, inventory space at a premium - this mod does give you a little more flex in that situation.

You know what might be better?  If, in addition to allowing chips, etc. to stack, you limit the stack count of ammo so that anything over 50 bullets or 10 shells or 3 grenades requires another stack.  That way the inventory would be more full of ammo (fixing some of the ammo overabundance) and less full of consumables.  The benefit of having extra stackable health, offset by the need for more inventory space for ammo.  It would also help with the game fiction being more consistent since, why should you be able to carry infinite shells but no more than a dozen bags of chips?

LOL. That's an interesting idea, but I think I will just say that changing the way that ammo stacks will remain beyond the scope of this mod.

I have achieved the goals that I had set for this tiny mod. I don't believe anything else is "required".

Read my post again.  I was agreeing with you.

it will also work with SCP, Secmod, and pretty much anything except the orig maps, as most mods already have NVscript loaded.
