Pairs well with my Fully Functional Wild & Fresh Crops mod.
Summary
- 49 New Recipes total, roughly half originating from New English cuisine
- 2 New Categories, Meals and Gourmet.
- Meals contains recipes that use 3 or more ingredients that aren't soup. 28 total, 4 of which are vanilla moved out of Roasts.
- Gourmet contains recipes that are complex or use very rare ingredients. Often comes with more unusual effects. 15 Total.
- Roasts receives 4 new recipes and is now for basic recipes that use just 1 or 2 ingredients.
- Soups has 4 new additions. Beverages and Utilities both get 1 new addition.
- Vendor leveled list injection via script. Not all the new foods, but many of them.
The only tweaks to vanilla references were carrying over a few UFO4P fixes and renaming Yao Guai Roast to Baked Yao Guai due to it being moved from Roasts to Meals due to it having more than 2 ingredients. So there wont be much in the way of compatibility issues.
Design Philosophy
To balance the foods I added up the health and cap values of the ingredients and then multiplied it by a number derived from the amount of ingredients and the rarity of those ingredients. The result was most recipes have values ranging from +20% to +100% that of their added base values.
Additionally every recipe uses at least 1 wild, fresh, or packaged ingredient. Often multiple at once. The various wild flowers in the game were treated as herbs/spices when present in a dish.
