FarmLifeMod 1.1

Added growable tomatoes and related recipes.

Now that I have a couple of different plants and recipes, my next goal is to make the items easily balanced with xpath and tagging. After that I'll get gating finished and then add a million things to grow and cook :)

 
Thanks so much, and please feel free to go completely overboard with farming! lol, its a big part of the game for me. Lots of A16 mods for crops to draw inspitation from. Ive seen some great sunflowers, but you could also do hemp or maybe peanuts for oil. Hemp is a good one because of the amount of basic uses. Medicinal plants, poisonous plants for poison or acid recipes.

 
please add more, maybe pumpkins, lettuce, oranges, apples, etc.

Thanks all. I have been busy with real life but plan to add more veggies soon!

I started work on reusable parts for blocks. Should have some gating working today though. I’ll try to get in 2 more crops by tomorrow though :)

Need to test with experimental today though I didn’t see any patch notes about crops.

Once I have a stand alone mod working with built in textures and icons, I do want to make another mod that replaces all the crops and items with custom stuff. It’s on my list :)

This mod is intended to add more depth to farming and cooking.

Get a date with chef Ramsay and make bechamel with corn flour and see how happy he is ;p

I made fairly sweeping changes to the xml. Plant blocks and items now use a custom modTag to reduce clutter in the source code and make it super easy to add new plants and items.

Blocks are still a little thick but I think I can make it even better next version

Items got a lot of love. I added a tiered system to make balancing super easy for anyone. There are 4 tiers currently.

Plant - raw veggie chance of food poisoning

Processed - minimally changed plant no health bonus

Refined - combined food with health bonus

Prepared - more ingredients and time. More health and food/water

I will work out water only and food only items next release. In the mean time enjoy :)

Updated the main post with instructions.

 
FarmLifeMod 1.3 Released!




This release features... BEER!!!!! (I added missing seed recipes, thanks to folks on the forum for heads up!)

Ok so its not that exciting, yet. Next steps are to add custom effects depending on the beer types.

Pimps did a great job adding beer and hops, I am super appreciative that they added this feature! However, I feel there are some improvements to be made. Note that I plan to make brewing much more complex in the future, but for now I’m trying to prove out some ideas and make sure that they can work.

This release removes the old beer recipe completely. Vanilla beer still exists but simply can’t be crafted. The work involved in removing beer entirely is error prone when xml changes. After the game ships I will look at it then. Till then, to avoid bugs, vanilla beer is still there, you just can’t craft it.

New Growable Plants:




Sorghum

Bitter Hop

Floral Hop

New Items:




Beer IPA

Beer Stout

Beer Lager

Beer Cheap

Bitter Hops

Floral Hops

Sorghum

Light Malt

Golden Malt

Dark Malt

How does beer making work?




Beer is now brewed in large batches, similar to how home brewers do it. You create batches of 15 bottles at a time. The times vary per beer based on the ingredients.

The process involves growing hops and sorghum first. Once you have enough hops and sorghum, you first create Malt. There are 3 flavors of malt right now, each created in a campfire.

Once you have the correct type of malt, you can take water, hops, and malt to create beer in the chem station.

I plan to add yeast in a subsequent version, but I’m not sure the best way to handle that right now. Likely will use a similar system to what I have planned for cows, veal, lamb, chickens, etc. I also want to make a custom workstation that is specific to brewing, add an intermediate stage for making wort first, then fermentation.

For now, enjoy the beer!
