How would I do something like that? I tried by just replacing it directly by using the PatchOperationReplace command but it just brings up an error.

Hello, I require assistance on patching a recipeDef to be able to use a different material for another mod alongside my own.

I have a medieval mod that adds coal powered benches and preserved foods using a building. As a request by someone, they asked if my smoking recipes can use the Salt's from Vanilla Expanded Cooking. I have tried to add or even replace the salt from my mod with VEC's but it either doesn't work or brings up errors.

This is just 1 of the 6 I need to patch but if I can just get help on just 1 of them that would be wonderful. I can't figure it out but any help would be wonderful.

I never realized it was <RecipeUser> not <RecipeUsers>, even when I was altering and changing the original patch. Sometimes XML can be a pain when you don't get it exact.

Thank you, it works exactly how I hoped.

Thank you for the help however I tried to insert it the best I could, however it brings up this error

Patch operation Verse.PatchOperationSequence
(count=2,lastFailedOperation=Verse.PatchOperationAdd
(/Defs/ThingDef[@Name="BaseMeleeWeapon"]/recipeMaker/recipeUser)) failed

It seems it just get stuck trying to figure out what it wants to do. I even modified the old patch I used a little to try to work it but even still it displays a error.

Thank you for the reply,

If you try to override the existing code through the Core.xml files directly ( Like a existing defThing like Apparel_PlateArmor ) rather then patch them, if any other mods using that same Defs file and item, it would bring up many errors due to conflicting files.

I am trying to figure out how to patch items that are smithable to work with my new workbench. Like I said, I used the same exact patching as stated above for getting the Simple Helmet to appear and it works, however, other items using a parentName don't due to the way that it is arranged.

I'm fine with patching each individual item to work with it for my mod but I don't know the "how" of it, like getting the Plate Armor or Knifes and Clubs to appear.

Hello, first post on the forums.

Trying to create a new Smithy that runs on a different material however doesn't show the any recipes to smith. I tried both adding recipes through the Smithy <Recipes> like the Stoves <Recipes> and also patching items from their <RecipeMaker> <RecipeUser> section.

The only item that works is the Simple Helmet. All the rest of the armors and weapons use a ParentName such as <ArmorSmithableBase> and bring up the Patching Failed error.

Does anyone know how to patch Armors and Weapons that use base <RecipeMaker> like <ArmorSmithableBase> to add to the workbench.

Here is the patch I have for it:

Code Select Expand


<Operation Class="PatchOperationAdd">
   <order>Append</order>
   <xpath>Defs/ThingDef[defName = "ArmorSmithableBase"]/recipeMaker/recipeUsers</xpath>           
   <value>
      <li>MW_PoweredSmithy</li>
   </value>
</Operation>

I don't know why only the Simple Helmet works using this process. I can only guess it's due to it having a dedicated <RecipeMaker> section. Any help would be great.
