Wendy Portrait
Burdened with yet another terrible weight...

Wendy, weighing a heavy fish with a Pocket Scale.

Wilson weighing a heavy fish.

Weight is a characteristic of some Mobs exclusive to Don't Starve Together. Only Vegetables, Ocean Fishes, Freshwater Fish, Live Eel, Wobster and Lunar Wobster have weights.

Fishes[]

Weight of fish can be measured with Pocket Scale and Fish Scale-O-Matic. The weight of a fish is chosen at random from the range of values possible for its species. Weights of Ocean Fishes are evenly distributed:

weight = random * (max_weight - min_weight) + min_weight

Weights of Wobster and Lunar Wobster are concentrated towards the minimum:

weight = random^3 * (max_weight - min_weight) + min_weight

Weights of Freshwater Fish and Live Eel are concentrated towards the average:

weight = ((2 * random - 1)^3 - 1) * (max_weight - min_weight) + min_weight

The Crabby Hermit accepts only fish that weigh more than 70% of the maximum weight for their type. The Heavy Weighted Lure attracts only fish that weigh more than 80% of the maximum weight for their type.

Below is a table of weight range for each species and the corresponding Crabby Hermit and Heavy Weighted Lure threshold:

Vegetables[]

Vegetables can be weighted with a Produce Scale. Regular vegetables are too light and the scale display a weight inferior to 1. Giant Vegetables have a weight given be the formula:

if random < coefficient then 
   weight = (random + random) / 2  * (max - min) + min
else
   weight = random  * (max - min) + min

with random is a uniform random variable between 0 and 1, and coefficient is a variable proper to each vegetable. A small coefficient indicates that weights probabilities are evenly distributed between all possible value, a high coefficient indicates than weights are more likely to be close to the average value and less likely to be extreme.
