Genelib is a Vintage Story mod by sekelsta. Genelib is a genetics library for Vintage Story mods, handling inherited traits, mutations, sex-linked genes, and inbreeding.
Why this mod is worth installing
Install it when another animal or breeding mod lists Genelib as a dependency. It is also useful for naming supported animals with the N key.
What Genelib adds
Genelib is a dependency rather than a standalone gameplay expansion. It supplies other mods with a shared system for storing genes and calculating which variants offspring receive from each parent.
The framework supports ordinary dominant and recessive traits, sex-linked inheritance, rare mutations, and fertility effects connected with inbreeding. The exact visible traits depend on the animal mod using the library; examples include coat colors in horses and leg color in chickens.
The library also provides an animal-naming dialog. Look at a compatible animal and press N to open it; the available species depend on the installed mods, while some creatures can use the feature with Genelib alone.
