Lifeways: Core

DBy DocViviVT

Core functionality for the Lifeways series of mods, including some generally-useful recipes.

Description

Overview


 

Lifeways: Core is the core mod of my (still in early-development) Lifeways series of mods, focusing on adding new and interesting ways of interacting with the basic mechanics of life in Vintage Story (food production, primarily), inspired by a diversity of cultures from around the world and their histories:

 

Lifeways: Core is not just a library mod, though - it adds items, devices, recipes and so on that are shared between the Lifeways mods - and which are also useful in the vanilla game!

Wet Mill

A version of the vanilla Quern that outputs only on one side - and which can output liquids into adjacent liquid containers!

How it works

When the Wet Mill grinds something that grinds into a liquid item, rather than being put into the output slot, it checks for a liquid container on the side with the spout. If that block is empty, it then procedes to check the block below that, and continues on downwards until it finds a block. If that block isn't a liquid container, it will spill the output on the ground. If it is a liquid container (and is neither full nor contains a different liquid), it will put the liquid inside it!

Condensed Milk

Make your milk last longer by simmering it with honey! As a bonus, it's extremely densely-packed nutrition!

Compatibility


Lifeways: Core is designed with compatibility in mind - but at present, there isn't much potential for conflict to begin with! The Wet Mill grinds exactly the same as the vanilla quern, by consulting the item's&nbsp;grindingProps. This means it can grind anything the quern can - the only additional functionality is looking for a liquid container to output into, instead of putting liquid grinding results in the output slot (which results in buggy behavior).
