This simple stand-alone mod adds a building that allows you to preserve meat. Alpha 13 made huuuge strides in allowing low-tech play styles, but the one factor missing was an alternative to freezing for food preservation. This is an attempt to add a low-impact, well balanced method for preserving meat.

This mod adds:

-RESEARCH: Food Preservation - low-tier research project that unlocks the Smokehouse building

-BUILDING: The Smokehouse. Costs 90 wood and 40 stone bricks to build. Can smoke meat with new recipes.

-RECIPE: Smoke Meat. Three bills are available at the smokehouse for smoking 10/40/75 raw meat at a time. Recipes require both raw meat and wood at a ratio of 5:1.

-RESOURCE: Smoked Meat. A form of raw meat that lasts two and a half seasons at room temperature before spoiling. It still needs to be prepared in a meal, and it gives a mood debuff if eaten directly (though less severe than eating raw meat).

I can understand for game balance reasons why the smoked meat should have a slight mood debuff but...some people (including myself) prefer some meats to be smoked/salted vs cooked in some circumstances.

Anyway, good work, will be adding to me mod list.  :)

Would it be possible to add salt to the mod so we make make salted smoked meat? or some herbs & spices? (like a cooked meal, but without cooking)

Fridolin

Very good idea!

is it savefriendly?

EDIT: not friendly- the most stuff of the colonie + some colonist are delated.

And salt can buy only the merchants

Reaper

Um could you introduce wood chips from traders that produce flavored smoke meat? Make eating it a joy activity?(make it damage blood filtration)

I Know I love smoky flavor but I don't think cactus wood chips would make good flavor.

These are both good ideas, and something I'd look into. Truthfully, there are other good mods that allow for alternate food preservation, and have many more features and options (Powerless and Food Preservation are two examples). This mod is specifically designed to be low-impact, and fulfill what I see as the most critical feature still missing in vanilla to allow for a rich and viable low-tech playstyle.

Noticed that colonists can build the smoke house on marsh/mud tiles.

Also is there any way to limit usage to only those who can firefight as well as cook?
eitherway I really like this mod idea, and now just thinking that maybe somehow we'd have to add a smoke meat (5 meat + 5 wood = 5 smoked) over campfire. recipe.
