## Description

This mod lets you customize the drain rate of fullness and hydration.

 This means you can have the day length set to "Realistic" but the fullness and hydration
 drain rate set to "Default" for example, or short day length but
 long (=does not drain that much) drain rate.

 The values "Short", "Default", "Long" and "Realistic" are the same as from the game modes.
