[Gameplay] Red birds spawning in winter in normal/RoG mode [+solution]

Two changes need to be made to fix this issue.  The first is to spawn blue birds instead of red birds in the winter, and the second is to prevent blue birds from dropping seeds.

In birdspawner.lua, there is no check to see if it is winter to replace the "robin" prefab with the "robin_winter" prefab.  This can be corrected by inserting the following lines into the BirdSpawner:PickBird(spawn_point) function at line 192, just above the check to see if the parrot should be replaced by a pirate parrot.

dont_starve\data\DLC0002\scripts\components\birdspawner.lua

Insert:

if bird == "robin" and GetWorld().components.seasonmanager:IsWinter() then
    bird = "robin_winter"
end

In addition, the birds.lua file needs to be edited so that blue birds don't drop seeds.  This can be done on line 259 in the following file.

dont_starve\data\DLC0002\scripts\prefabs\birds.lua

Original:

if name ~= "seagull_water" and name ~= "seagull" then

Change to:

if name ~= "seagull_water" and name ~= "seagull" and not GetWorld().components.seasonmanager:IsWinter() then

I've also attached a complete copy of my birdspawner.lua and birds.lua files that correct the issue.

Made correction to second line of code

Note that I corrected the second line of code above.  I was originally checking for name ~= "seagull_water" and name ~= "seagull" and name ~= "robin_winter", but this would still allow crows (black birds) to drop seeds in winter.  I've replaced that with a call to explicitly check if it's winter, and if so, no birds will drop seeds.  I've re-uploaded the birds.lua file also.

Changed Status to Fixed
