UPDATES (Patreon)
Content
This was a hell of an update I wasn't planning on but decided to just break down and do so everything I'm doing now is consistent. I went in and did a lot of housekeeping on all the items below and added a couple of neat features as well.
I think I tested everything pretty thoroughly but it was a lot so if you have any problems let me know. I'm going to wait a few days for new uploads so I can address any problems that may come up.
The Patreon Downloads folder should be updated and current. Because there were so many updates, it might be a good idea to download folders instead of individual files. Some quick info on how it's all organized:
The folders and sub-folders should match the navigation bar on my site
I've moved all mods (anything that alters or includes any important tunings) to the Mods folder
If you'd like a general explanation of what each folder contains, you can check the description in the heading on it's corresponding page on my site (to see what's in the Mods > Crafting & Skills folder you can read the description at the top of the Crafting & Skills page on my site)

Fixed items that were not properly marked as 'sellable' to village market stalls
Teas are now tagged as SCCO ingredients
Fixed an issue with a few ingredients that wouldn't let a sim interact with them if stacked on a surface with multiple shelves
Fixed and added various strings

Harvestables

Pick up all Servings - updated tunings
Mods - Crafting & Skills - Mill Appliance
general updates/improvements
fixed OTG & Simple Living menus to show up properly
recipes are now 3x more expensive to craft on OTG Mill when Off The Grid (to make it more of a challenge and encourage the use of ingredients); I'll be adding some exceptions to this in the future!
Patreon Downloads Folder
Re-organized folders; Downloads Folder should match how my site is organized
Deleted some sub-folders to make easier to find files
Changed any '&' symbols in folder name to a '+' (google drive doesn't recognize the & symbol and will change the name when you download the folder)
Changed the naming on some of the folders
Moved most of the shared files from their original folders to the new 'Mods - Shared' folder. I did this in the hopes that it makes it easier to troubleshoot issues since the core of all the tunings are in these files.
*If you're experiencing problems or LE's then I would troubleshoot the folders in 'Mods' folder first and see if this narrows down the issue before removing any other folders as these are most likely to need updates.*
Important Note on Included Translations:
I'm going to be discontinuing the inclusion of translations with my content. I've changed things so many times and there's a lot of inconsistency with the translations because of it, I think it would be better to just leave them out for now. When my content stops changing so much I will look into adding them back. Those of you who have translated my content, I wanted to thank you for all your support and let you know that if you'd like to share a link to any of your translated strings please let me know and I will include them on my site!
