Does there exist a mod that converts insanity auras into hunger/health loss (or the reverse)?

Well, I accidentally put this in the Don't Starve forum, but I meant it to be here. Anyway:

 

I'm trying to make my first mod for this game that uses this idea of converting the things that affect sanity into things that affect hunger instead (as in, picking up a dark flower would decrease hunger instead of sanity). Is there a mod that does something similar to this?

You could just override the DoDelta's of your character's hunger and sanity.

Sorry that I am responding a week later. I have sat here trying to understand how to do the overrides, but I'll be honest, I have no clue how to start. I have brainstormed some ideas, but after I sit back and think about them, they make zero sense. How would something like this look? 

 

Edit: currently, my idea is to take the DoDelta for, say, health, and then just put in the code from the DoDelta for sanity.

Yes, that would work. You would have to do some checks to see if it's your character that is being affect, and then do it, but yes it would work.

Thanks for the info!

 When you say checks on the character, do you mean the client?

 

I guess I should clarify that the mod I am thinking of making would be a server-wide one, not a character mod.

Oh. I thought you were making a character. Just disregard my last statement.
