WIP Update & Upcoming Updates (Patreon)
Content
I went off the rails this last week/weekend and don't have any updates/downloads ready just yet but I wanted to check-in with you all so you know where I'm at right now.
Here's what I've been working on:
I updated all the meshes and textures for all current ingredients. I started this originally to match EA's flour and sugar sacks. Then I realized that it would take way less time to make new textures for ingredients if I copied EA and only included an image on the front instead of text and a bunch decorative packaging. Although I really like creating unique textures, this is going to work more efficiently as well as match EA's stuff better.
As I was going through recipes to update, I saw that I could condense some ingredients that repeat themselves in my recipes, like flour and sugar, and create 'Cake Flour' that uses those ingredients instead. Then the Cake Flour can be used in a food recipe and that frees up an ingredient slot! (I use max 4 ingredients for food recipes so it doesn't mess up the UI.)
I'm creating some new ingredients for all my old recipes including red bean paste, holy trinity veggies, cake flour, pastry flour, bread flour, pumpkin spice, cream sauce, purple tomato sauce, and cream cheese.
I'm working on some new harvestables for those ingredients including cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, red potatoes, and celery.
I started working on some add-ons for the 'Shop BrazenLotus Farms' mod that include the ability to purchase ingredients. I also realized my ingredients can't be added to the stalls without an override, I'll have a poll on that soon.
Sorry it's taking so long, everything is so intertwined with everything else I don't want to mess anything up so I'm being really careful and checking my work and other mods as I go.
I'll have more info/content soon and I hope you all have a great week!
