Behind the scenes - Olde Cookbook Kit
Added 2023-07-23 13:14:43 +0000 UTCJust a (disorganised) list to keep you in the loop of my progress though the jumble that is currently the olde cookbook kit.
These are the things i'm currently working on. Everything's a bit messy right now.. But i've been asked a lot about it so I thought it would be easier to make a sort of temporary tracking list.
There is no time frame as to when this will be finished.
--------
All ingredients -
basically remaking the packages (appearances are the same, behind the scene fixes eg. place on floor error fix, showing in plant pots (oops) etc- done
Animals -
same as above, new packages (appearances are the same, behind the scene fixes eg. place on floor error fix, showing in plant pots (oops) etc- done
Freshness decay/price decrease - done

Animal Mounts - planned
Animal Bundles - planned
The Forest - Hunting/Foraging
Hunting skill - in progress
Chance/Choice cards - in progress
Craft Bait to lure specific animals (tied to the hunting skill) - done-ish
New crafting table - working on

Reworking the buffs based on skill level/traits - working on
The Village
Adding outdoor retreat herbalist mixtures to be able to purchase at the herbalist shoppe.
General adjustments to the shops & produce available to purchase.
General Fixes/tweaks working through:
Injured/bear attacked sims can no longer partake in hunting and foraging - also added this restriction for the aches & pains buff.

Child sims can drink the drink recipes (even nectar) - more recipes to come.
Fixed all Better Exceptions
Insect repellent (outdoor retreat) will now work and sims who have applied it will not get attacked by ticks & fleas whilst hunting/foraging
No more cheeky cancelling early for hunting/foraging and still getting the rewards - sims will come home empty handed if cancelled early.
Cooking:
New functional hearth fireplace/oven - working on
Functional outdoor campfire roasting spit - working on

Oh of course, leave your wants and wishes in the comments!

Look for herbs/plants to help make medicines for an apothecary? That might be cool too!

2023-08-18 14:09:34 +0000 UTCI would love more recipes that don’t require ingredients that weren’t available in Europe before 1600. Tomatoes, potatoes, tea, etc. Maybe add some forgeables or harvestables like parsnips and turnips.

2023-08-17 15:17:26 +0000 UTCI would love expanded hunting. For example, if you hunted and caught a deer you could separate and use the fur and meat. Sell it or use it in some way smoke the meat make jerky etc You could make a living off of rabbit holes being a hunter and trapper mining, cutting wood searching for gold

2023-08-09 15:54:49 +0000 UTCI'm always thinking of new recipes and hopefully will be able to add a few for the next release but for the next update I'm mainly focusing on tidying up/ expanding the signpost aspect. But of course, if you have any specific recipes in mind i'll put aside some time to try squeeze them in! :)

2023-08-08 10:10:38 +0000 UTCI can definitely start planning for a foraging skill (once the hunting one is done and finished so I don't start getting confused aha) I'm looking a lot into how best to implement choosing what you want your sims to forage/hunt without it being too easy.. or repetitive. A skill would be good for this too :)

2023-07-26 21:22:36 +0000 UTCI would love some new plants for some (not all) of the plants and nuts foraged! Maybe even a special seed that's rare? or a foraging skill! I love this mod and cant wait to see more!

2023-07-26 11:27:09 +0000 UTCIs it possible to add cook off the grid to the custom stoves? Right now we need a regular stove to access EA cook off grid option
