Speedy Breastfeeding

Haven't seen a mod like this, so finally decided to make it.

Haven't seen a mod like this, so finally decided to make it.

Adds a simple patch that will multiply the speed at which babies can breastfeed; because I always felt like the base rate was WAY too slow.

Right now can be configured to up to 1x (base) to 10x speed (should default to 2x)

YOU MUST CLOSE/RELOAD RIMWORLD IF CHANGING THE SETTING!!! I wanted to make it dynamic but the way I'd have needed to do it felt too intrusive and you shouldn't be changing this setting often anyways (basically would need to keep re-calling the harmony patch and i'm not about to risk a performance hit on this; so a one-and-done call seemed better).

This is mostly for more modded setups where babies can end up being very hungry or you're dealing with a large amount of babies. It gets borderline unmanageable as I've seen pawns nearly starve to death on how much time they're spending breastfeeding. The issue is from what i can tell the game has a fairly flat rate at which this occurs and is unaffected by things like eating speed or how much nutrition the baby actually needs requiring a harmony patch to actually adjust it.

Update: New setting for baby food as well.
Update2: Lactation Expansion now supported; uses the same slider because they use the same rate as vanilla so patching it is pretty 1:1.
