Doloc Town Hotfix 0.93.16 Boosts Animal Economy and Processing Speeds
Doloc Town hotfix 0.93.16 addresses community feedback regarding starving animals while significantly increasing selling prices, processing speeds, and resource yields. The update also streamlines crafting mechanics across giant casks, pickling jars, and dehydrators.
The 0.93.16 hotfix for Doloc Town on Steam tackles widespread community reports of animals refusing to eat while implementing broad adjustments to farming yields, item values, and manufacturing speeds.
Animal Husbandry and Feeding
Animal selling prices and the values of animal produces, processed goods, and cooked items have all been increased. Rare produce drop rates from animals are higher, and animal metabolism, growth, and breeding speeds received slight boosts. To combat feeding issues, alfalfa grass and rough feed now provide more satiety, feeding trough capacity and filling mechanics have been expanded, and pasture basin growth speeds were increased.
Processing and Crafting Adjustments
Cooking speeds, furnace metal production for iron, steel, and gold ingots, and farm light acceleration effects have all been increased. Giant casks, large pickling jars, electric dehydrators, and aging racks no longer stack raw material processing times, producing items simultaneously instead. Basic well capacity and water drawing speeds have also been increased, alongside higher stack sizes for crops and recipe items.
Resource Gathering and Yields
Wetland mangroves and abandoned car or metal scrap piles now feature increased health alongside larger resource drops for rockwood and scrap items. Fertilizer and organic fertilizer acceleration effects have been improved, though organic fertilizer duration was reduced. Additionally, dismantling a planting pot that contains a growing crop will now consistently drop fiber.
Bug Fixes and Quality of Life
The hotfix resolves issues where newly purchased animals would not eat, animals would teleport abnormally after jumping, and specific platform structures caused animals to step into the air while being herded. An item encyclopedia agriculture tab was added, tech tree icons and locked nodes were updated, and fish roe placement restrictions were corrected.
Why this patch matters
Hotfix 0.93.16 provides substantial quality-of-life upgrades to farming loops, making resource generation and animal management significantly faster and more rewarding.
