Firstly, thanks so much for the kind words.  I've put a lot of work into this mod, so I'm so glad that people are enjoying it!  Secondly, I'm losing my mind right now.  Just the other day I had someone tell me that the snare was pretty much useless.  The snare is VERY similar to the deadfall, only slightly better. 

It's starting to occur to me that there simply isn't a way to provide everyone with a similar experience. I've been getting the same sort of feedback about fishing - it's way too easy for some, and way too hard for others.  

Not knocking you in any way, shape, or form, and I really do appreciate hearing from you, so thanks again.  I just don't know what to do to fix things!

Sorry, life took a sharp turn not a day after I posted that, I got a break up for a Christmas present . I only placed four snares/deadfalls in total but maybe it was just a really high traffic area, either way my character won't be starved for protein during the winter . I know that trying to balance these must be a pain to deal with but I really do enjoy the mod, there were just tons of rabbit corpses all over my yard  

First and foremost, this mod is awesome. The traps add a whole new element that I felt was lacking in the base game and it does it well...too well. That leads to the second thing. I don't know if I just plopped the deadfalls in a high traffic area but within 20 minutes of setting them down I had already crushed close to 30 rabbits. I think a slight decrease to the attraction chance/range would do wonders. Other than that it's been great. I just have an ungodly amount of rabbits laying in my front yard lol.

The only thing I could guess is that you aren't giving them enough time to smelt completely. There should be a green bar appearing when you begin to heat the nuggets to indicate that they're smelting.

So I straight up stabbed a merchant in hopes that I could claim his home and whatever goodies he had. Is it possible to take over his claim or did I just kill him for no reason?
