I personally have ichthyophobia (fear of fish) and also find fish to be an overpowered food source in their current state. My solution? DESTROY THEM!

The unspeakable horrors are now called Boids and are unlikely to trigger anyone! This means the mod is now client-side and thus usable on any server.

So what is the name for a phobia to moths I wander?

I spose if it can be said I have any phobia at all, it would be to official papers. Anything comes in the mail from insurance or government or business and I feel ill. Anything official from assholes with the power to fry my life. But I'm not sure if that counts as irrational. It is the thing I hate the most, nonetheless. You wouldn't have a mod that can make them look like greeting cards, would you.

Mendall  Phobias are by definition irrational. I have stood at the edges of cliffs and felt fine, but seeing a picture of a sea creature makes me feel like throwing up for at least a few minutes. Also, a phobia is not strictly a fear- it encompasses a range of negative feelings. Think of it like PTSD; if someone were having an episode, you wouldn't dismiss it because there are no guns in the room and no chance of death.

I once dated a girl that was super scared of moths. I could never understand it, they didn't even have a mouth to bit with. And were as soft as tissue paper.

TheDude It's just locusts for now, but here: mods.vintagestory.at/arachnophobia

TheDude Sure, I'll throw one together.

If you like, create a mod for archanophobes by modifying the locusts and shivers. I've been looking for months for a friend of mine, and it's making her nauseous because there are too many legs swarming around. 😅

As someone who has thalassophobia, I appreciate mods like this. The slimy little things in ponds don't usually bothher me, but even a minnow in deep water terrifies me.

Cuiwi I'm not sure why, but my phobia is severe enough that I couldn't even begin exposure therapy. Even talking about it for more than a minute or two is a problem. Anyway, I also think the new models are funny, so maybe non-phobic individuals will get a kick out of it as well.

💬 Cuiwi, Feb 7th at 4:28 PM

I feel like therapy is in order and would be helpful for those who would need this, but I can't diss more accessibility options!

They are pretty bonkers food source, maybe not as bad from a numbers prospective as rabbits, but way easier to catch.
