Mod Request: Cooked Xerigium

[Azuchisamurai]

basically i would like to request a mod that enables you to "cook" herbal Medicine on the cooking stove with a simmilar formula as cooking meals
(as a balancing means), somehting like 30 herbal medicine, 20 cotton.

turning the herbal medicine into normal medicine, considering the quantities you cna get herbal medicine im hoping that the above measures will help restrict how fast you can make medicine, but i feel like something else is needed sicne the sheer ease of getting the ingredients somehtign else may be needed

[Jeoshua]

Have you tried Apothecarius?

[Azuchisamurai]

checked it out but didnt like it, i saw another mod that does something simmilar but i didnt like how easy it made it to get ordinary medkits

Given the current potency of herbal medicine (85 %) and medkit (100 %), I find your "30 for 1" ratio really expensive!
A 3 or 5 for 1 would be enough with say 10 cotton in my opinion.

As for your request:
WARNING!!! Perform a backup before any modification of core resources!

• Open the RimWorld657Win\Mods\Core\Defs\RecipeDefs\Recipes_Meals.xml file.
• Copy/paste an existing recipe
• Modify the input ingredients and output products and you're done!

Look on the forum about recipe ingredients/products and ask again if you are still in trouble.

this is the best thing to do probably

• Open the RimWorld657Win\Mods\Core\Defs\RecipeDefs\Recipes_Meals.xml file.
• Copy/paste an existing recipe
• Modify the input ingredients and output products and you're done!

[Azuchisamurai]

found the problem its a work giver problem but im not sure what to do about it

[Azuchisamurai]

i looked over some wikis and other pages and everything appears to be correct, and sicne im just adding a new recipe to the cooking recipe list it shouldnt require a work giver def so im not sure whats wrong

[Azuchisamurai]

okay everything appears to be good but still not kicking in the job order im gonna try including the workgiver file as well and see fi that works if not ill just upload it here and hope someone can find the problem
