Dig Periodically - Vanilla-Expanded/VanillaExpandedFramework GitHub Wiki

CompDigPeriodically allows an animal to dig in the ground for a given resource

    //A comp class that just makes an animal dig a resource every ticksToDig ticks

    public List<string> customThingToDig = null;
    public List<int> customAmountToDig = null;
    public int ticksToDig = 60000;
    public bool onlyWhenTamed = false;
    //Should items be spawned forbidden?
    public bool spawnForbidden = false;
    //Dig biome rocks. Animal will only dig rocks found on this biome, ignoring customThingToDig
    public bool digBiomeRocks = false;
    //If digBiomeRocks is true, do we also go further and turn those into bricks?
    public bool digBiomeBricks = false;
    public int customAmountToDigIfRocksOrBricks = 1;
    //Is the result a corpse? If so, spawn a pawn, and kill it
    public bool resultIsCorpse = false;
    //Flag to only dig if the terrain is polluted
    public bool onlyDigIfPolluted = false;

How do I use this code?

It is a comp class, so you just add it in XML in the <comps> tag. For example, this allows Gigawigs in Vanilla Factions Expanded - Insectoids to dig around for mineral resources once a day:
