Compatibility Notes
HB Doghouse multiplayer status is listed as Supported. This animal-care script should be tested carefully with other livestock, feeding, dirt, barn, pasture, and husbandry mods, because two systems can sometimes update the same animal area or daily routine.
The active gameplay logic is written in Lua, the scripting language Farming Simulator 25 uses for script mods. Lua is loaded through modDesc.xml.
Testing Notes
Test HB Doghouse by loading the animal area, feeding or bedding where relevant, waiting through normal time, checking outputs or markers, then saving and reloading the same placeable. Change only one thing at a time and write down the map name, game version, mod version, and other active scripts that affect animal-care gameplay.
If the first test looks good, save the game, exit to the menu, reload the save, and repeat the same action once more. This helps catch restore problems, missing XML paths, delayed script errors, and visual changes that only appear after reload.
If an animal marker, feed plane, food type, pallet, manure area, or visible animal does not appear, test with only this mod and the map enabled before blaming the save. Keep one active version and check the download source whenever an update appears.
