Fresh / Perishable products v1.0
Fresh adds shelf life to your products – crops age over time and will spoil if not sold or used!
Your harvested crops, processed goods, and baled forage now have realistic shelf lives – leafy vegetables spoil quickly, while grains and canned products last much longer. Leave produce sitting too long and it will expire and be lost! Customize shelf lives via the Fresh Menu.
Usage
Install the mod and play normally. Open Fresh Menu with Right Shift+F to view inventory, stats, and settings. Check expiry by looking at any vehicle, bale, or storage. Customize shelf lives in Settings if defaults don’t suit your playstyle.
