A few recipes I've added to my game

[darth_servo]

I say heavy stick, lump of steel (or was it chunk of steel, dunno), hacksaw + scrap metal + hammer, rock or other bashing item. Sledgehammer has same wedge like usual hammer, but it shouldn’t be too easy to make, it’s pretty powerful.

Rebar + duct tape + steel?

My reasoning for the pipe + steel + welder was simply how to attach a heavy piece of steel to a handle without it flying apart when you smash it against something. I didn’t consider the vibration… maybe a duct tape handle would help?

If it bugs you that much, you can say that the superglue in the game is strong enough to bond a 5-10kg lump of metal to a heavy stick for such a purpose and use:

{ "result": "hammer_sledge", "category": "CC_MISC", "skill_pri": "mechanics", "difficulty": 2, "time": 20000, "reversible": false, "autolearn": true, "tools": [ [ ["hacksaw", -1], ["toolset", -1] ] ], "components": [ [ ["stick", 1], ["broom", 1], ["mop", 1], ["2x4", 1] ], [ ["superglue", 3] ], [ ["steel_lump", 1] ] ] }

Trouble is making it easy to craft, yet hard to make Well, the handle can be from pipe, as long as you don’t smash something hard with it, like iron or steel stuff. Iron pipe would add more weight, making it bit more dangerous, but that head itself is heavy, and wood handle swallows excessive vibration, that’s why they make them like this. Maybe make the handle from something plastic?

What am I doing wrong?
I’m trying to add the following to my game. Then I load up my game and the recipe is not showing up.

{ "result": "rollmat", "category": "CC_ARMOR", "skill_pri": "tailor", "skill_sec": "survival", "difficulty": 1, "time": 20000, "reversible": false, "autolearn": true, "tools": [ [ ["needle_bone", 10], ["sewing_kit", 10] ] ], "components": [ [ ["rag", 10] ], [ ["fur", 10] ] ] },

Lemme look at it real quick, but are you sure you have the required levels in tailoring and survival?

EDIT: Yeah, I don’t see anything. Of course, my knowledge of syntax is very limited. Could be something simple I’m overlooking.

The syntax looks OK to me but I couldn’t even tweak the Spaghetti al Pesto recipe…so what do I know?

One thing I noticed: the rollmat is clearly stated as made of foam. Perhaps add some scrap metal or somesuch & Mechanics in place of Tailoring, and have the recipe make a Cot instead?

Something like this:

{ "result": "cot", "category": "CC_MISC", "skill_pri": "mechanics", "skill_sec": "survival", "difficulty": 3, "time": 40000, "reversible": false, "autolearn": true, "tools": [ [ ["needle_bone", 10], ["sewing_kit", 10] ], [ ["screwdriver", -1] ] ], "components": [ [ ["rag", 10] ], [ ["scrap", 10] ] ] } ?

Make sure you have at least 1 skill in both Tailor and Survival. You can use the debug menu to give yourself +3 in all skills to test it.

Tailor 3, survival 5. None of the recipes I made are showing up. Please don’t tell me I need to start a new game…

[darth_servo]

I just added it to my game, no problem.

You’ve got it listed under the “Armor” tab, but it shows up fine.

I would hope not. I was able to use the jerrycan recipes I found on here earlier in what was my current character at the time.

While I’m positive you’ve checked already, you haven’t mentioned it, but are you looking under the armor tab?

Yeah. Checked so many times. I think the game’s trolling me.

lets roll these into the main game. the sledgehammer is a pretty strong weapon and now its easy to make. Id add a few more components to make it a little harder to craft.

Anyone have any ideas on things we can do with tin cans? now they are just clutter?

The jerry cans, as well as a recipe for First Aid I created have been merged into the builds.

[Zireael]

Any ideas how to make bleach/ammonia?

Will the rollmat/cot get rolled into the build?

[darth_servo]

Any ideas how to make bleach/ammonia?

IRL you can apprently make homemade chlorine bleach with water and something called “pool shock” (calcium hypochlorite), which is generally available at Walmart and such places. The component would have to be added to the game (possibly by editing data/raw/items/melee.json), since there’s not anything like it currently.

[Zireael]

I imagine crafting bleach and/or ammonia from ant eggs and acid, until something better is added.

Also, any uses for tin cans? A hammer or a stone hammer + lots of tin cans = metal canister? A rock + tin can = scrap metal?

[Sonny]

Tin and alu cans are used for homemade grenades and batteries… Not sure if for anything else.

[Zireael]

I’d love it if we could create canned food/MRE somehow.

[darth_servo]

You can preserve food. Canning, jerky, and vacuum sealed bags are the 3 ways currently in-game. An MRE is really just a vacuum-sealed bag of dehydrated food.

It would be interesting if we could use a Dehydrator on food to make dried fruits & meat, and then use dried food + vacuum sealer to create the actual MRE items…

Agreed.

I just thought that I’d be nice if we could craft underarmor or soft/hard arm guards…
