Hello all!

I'm trying to create a mod to add new recipes for various uncraftable parts such as "Motor tool parts", and "Shotgun parts". I can add the recipes just fine but I want to make it more balanced and immersive. I'm doing that by making the recipe learn-able and locked behind perks. The problem is there should be a way to set that in the recipes xml like so:

<recipe name="meleeToolChainsawParts" count="1" craft_time="15" craft_area="workbench" tags="perkAdvancedEngineering,learnable,workbenchCrafting">

<ingredient name="resourceForgedSteel" count="10"/>

<ingredient name="resourceMechanicalParts" count="5"/>

<ingredient name="resourceSpring" count="2"/>

<effect_group>

HERE I TRY TO SET INFO FOR LOCKING--><passive_effect name="RecipeTagUnlocked" tags="meleeToolChainsawParts"/>

<triggered_effect trigger="onSelfPrimaryActionEnd" action="ModifyCVar" cvar="meleeToolChainsawParts" operation="set" value="1">

</triggered_effect>

<requirement name="ProgressionLevel" progression_name="perkAdvancedEngineering" operation="GTE" value="1"/>

</effect_group>

</recipe>

I have found a way to set the recipe to unlock via the progressions.xml file. The problem is that it does not show up in the ui in game. Does anyone know how to do that? What Am I missing in the recipes.xml to make that work?

 
You are not closing the recipe tag so it's broken XML.

There is no problem with the xml. I actually discovered how to do it. You need to modify the items.xml file as well.

So there are three parts:

The items.xml:

<item name="meleeToolChainsawParts">

<property name="Extends" value="gunAk47Parts"/>

<property name="Material" value="MMotorToolParts"/>

<property name="EconomicValue" value="200"/>

ADD THIS LINE HERE----><property name="UnlockedBy" value="perkAdvancedEngineering"/>

</item>

The recipe.xml:

<recipe name="meleeToolChainsawParts" count="1" craft_time="15" craft_area="workbench" tags="perkAdvancedEngineering,learnable,workbenchCrafting">

<ingredient name="resourceForgedSteel" count="10"/>

<ingredient name="resourceMechanicalParts" count="5"/>

<ingredient name="resourceSpring" count="2"/>

</recipe>

The progressions.xml:

<perk name="perkAdvancedEngineering" parent="skillCraftsmanship" name_key="perkAdvancedEngineeringName" desc_key="perkAdvancedEngineeringDesc" icon="ui_game_symbol_workbench">

<level_requirements level="1"><requirement name="ProgressionLevel" progression_name="attIntellect" operation="GTE" value="1" desc_key="reqIntellectLevel01"/></level_requirements>

<level_requirements level="2"><requirement name="ProgressionLevel" progression_name="attIntellect" operation="GTE" value="4" desc_key="reqIntellectLevel04"/></level_requirements>

<level_requirements level="3"><requirement name="ProgressionLevel" progression_name="attIntellect" operation="GTE" value="6" desc_key="reqIntellectLevel06"/></level_requirements>

<level_requirements level="4"><requirement name="ProgressionLevel" progression_name="attIntellect" operation="GTE" value="8" desc_key="reqIntellectLevel08"/></level_requirements>

<level_requirements level="5"><requirement name="ProgressionLevel" progression_name="attIntellect" operation="GTE" value="10" desc_key="reqIntellectLevel10"/></level_requirements>

The problem is the xml I try for the recipes. I'm not using the right cVar stuff in the effect tags. I would prefer to do that all in the recipes object if possible. If you could help with that I would really appreciate it.

I tried a few things with the Effect tag nested in the recipes tag that didn't work.

</triggered_effect>
