As I sit here drinking coffee looking to continue playing "Mod it til it crashes" seeing this was great. Downloading now. Looks awesome. Thanks.

Very unrealistic.

Who gets a negative mood from drinking coffee?

What it needs is after initially drinking coffee for a while you get a negative mood when you go without coffee.

Addiction and withdrawal effects could be useful (for more than just caffeine).

As for making a coffee production chain, there doesn't really need to be anything beyond what's here for standard coffee... Decaffeinating it would take more, of course.

Someone just had to go and make a coffee mod... There's gotta be a way to add some kind of "coffee addiction" so I can make my colonists feel my pain! (I really do love coffee, some days I may have more coffee in my system than blood I swear [sleeping for 3 hours a day might have something to do with it...] )

Nice, I suggested it few days ago in another thread

I dont agree with a bad mood effect.

Other option to the bad mood could be:

* Each unit can only drink coffee one or two times per day (not sure if possible or easy to do).
* Drinking coffee reduces sleep time in 50% (units rest 50% faster)

[Khrysanth]

Some thoughts on how it could work:
Drinking coffee has an immediate effect that makes you less tired, and slows down becoming tired for a period of time (this portion does not stack.)
After that period, the second stage begins (the crash) - You become more tired faster for a period of time. Drinking more coffee during this stage can counter it (but this stage should stack, more coffee means you crash harder.)

[TheSilencedScream]

I should've mentioned this in my original post, but I bet if you'd named it 'Hot Coffee' mod, you'd have about triple the readers.

Everyone?
Just maybe not straight away.
Taking caffeine is essentially just stealing waking hours from the future.
Gotta make up the time somehow.

[Ramsis]

I also must agree that Toasty needs to fix the system where coffee becomes required after a certain period or the negative effect happens.

Hello ToastyBuns (cool name btw)

I may have found a problem with your mod. You replace the BoBillsCook WorkGiver def file. By replacing this file there is no longer a BoBillsCook for the cook stove and therefore the colonists no longer use the cook stove to make meals.

I would suggest you simply change the def name to BoBillsMakeCoffee, then there shouldn't be a problem anymore.
