ReefClient

The Reef's own client-side companion. You get it through the TheReef modpack; you do not need to install it by hand.

What it does

• Keeps your food near its full value for most of its duration, then lets it drop off sharply, instead of fading from the first bite. Adapted from Crystal Ferrai's Sated (Apache-2.0), same settings, same feel.
• Shows a small counter under the minimap: Odin's favors. It stays hidden until the realm gives you your first one.
• Lets the realm's director change the sky and the wind on your screen (rain for a scene, a fair wind for a voyage). It resets on its own.
• Sends a copy of what you type in chat to the server, so the director can hear you even when you play alone. It never reads your chat.

What it does not do

• On a server that does not run the Reef's server tools: no counter, no weather, nothing sent. Only the food curve still applies, because it is computed on your own machine.
• No commands. reef.client.cfg holds the counter's position and size, the deposit settings and the food curve ([Food] Enabled, three exponents) if you ever want vanilla food back.
• Nothing to your inventory, skills or items. The food curve is the one thing it changes, and only on your own screen.

Problems
