Apothecary and Baked Goods

BrIm is my acronym for Brite Imagination

And may I recommend "A Nice Bed with Benefits", my new mod - no cooldown, an inventory, player items are transferred to target bed; now with death recovery

INI settings FarSee consumables, FarSpec Wearables, and some structures get working distances from GameUserSettings.ini; the entries and default values are listed at the bottom of this page

Known Issues

• HouseCalls is not auto-feeding CondensedMilk to babies, but you can add 100 to the baby inventory and hand feed them
• Famished still exists, it should increase a wild (or tame) dino food consumption rate but not reduce food
• important I apologies for loss of Mithral items – i did not realize renaming something caused this

Planned Changes

• Smelter to pull metal and mithril ore from Dino’s
• Burning/Freezing/Shocking offence consumables will require a 'fuel' within the dino inventory (Embers, Frost, Sparx)
• Poisoning offence consumable to be added, requiring Noxious fuel
• Defence for poisoning
• Trinket versions of all offence and defence consumables

General Changes

• TheriBannock consumable did not have crafting requirements
• TheriBannock does not work with PaleoTheri (Hard Hitting Herbivores), but does if the theri is temporarily turned into a vanilla dino
• Anky and Theri trinket had incorrect description
• changed weight of mithral ore and ingot to 1.25, weight of steel ingot to 1.1
• Smelter pulls raw metal and mithral from nearby dinos; see INI setting Smelter.PullRadius (default 9,000, minimum 300, maximum 30,000)
• Smelter craft speed can be set by INI setting Smelter.CraftSpeed (default 5, minimum 1, maximum 100) – 25 yields one ingot per second; at this time the destruction of crafted items is fixed at 5 seconds
• most defence consumables (bandages, chilled, courage, grounded, stoneskin, viscous, warmed) can be used by a player; trinkets are only for dinos
• “Warmed” should protect from Cryolophosaurus and Veilwyn attacks; I hope it does not enforce any LC ownership
• “Chilled” should protect from Pyromane attacks; I hope it does not enforce any BTT ownership
• changed stack size of Raw/Cooked/Spoiled Bannock
• renamed Mithril as Mithral; I hope this does not cause lose of items
• some trinkets were not manifesting correctly – Chilled, Courage, Warmed
• added “Anky Augment” consumable & trinket, to harvest mithral ore, and carry it with reduced weight; experimental
• added “Theri Augment” consumable & trinket, to harvest raw bannock, and carry it with reduced weight; experimental

Structures

• Refinery (Forge) - cooks metal ingots, steel ingots (metal plus charcoal), mithril ingots
• Smelter, it should work like the Refinery Forge (which might be removed later), but can also breakdown ("grind") crafted items into raw resources; some resources will be lost, others may damage the smelter; items with a ‘durability’ will be broken down over time, others will be consumed immediately; consumes fuel 3x faster
• Workstation (Smithy) - BrIm items can be crafted in core smithy as well
• Bonfire - triple-size of campfire, much more heat and range; consumes fuel much faster
• Fryer (Cooking pot), larger inventory, faster crafting, with improved versions of core consumables (Calien Soup, Enduro Stew, Focal Chili, Fria Curry, Lazarus Chowder, Sweet Veggie Sushi); will use external water source if available
• House Calls – when filled with BrIm Healing Drinks, injured dinos within range will be healed; note these cause dinos to get very hungry, Extraordinary the most – if there is insufficient food nearby a dino could starve
• House Cleaning- moves to its inventory dropped items, contents of dead characters, or (death) item caches; requires power source; holds 500 items, default range is 3000 radius (10 foundations); this is not a ‘recovery stone’ per se but if the player or dino is killed within its range the structure should pickup the inventory; might not work as expected if configured distance is above 24,000; note if INI settings exists it is likely the preview sphere will not reflect it properly; note has three "ignore" / "pickup" options - typically use “Ignore dropped items” as that can conflict with (for example) Ark Automated Vacuum
• House Keeping – repairs structures (below 90% health) within range, or items in its inventory, if there are sufficient resources within its inventory or the area; crafted in Workstation
• Primitive Battery – can power electronics such as House Cleaning or House Keeping for a short period; crafted in Workstation

Consumables

Can be crafted in Fryer or Industrial Cooker

• FarSee consumables cannot be used together, and are also available as Wearables (crafted in Workstation)

• FarSee (Explorer Chests) - show an icon over Explorer Chests, only if it is about six foundations or further away; the icon is larger the further away it is; 5 minute duration, 5 minute cooldown

• Viscous, which should protect the player’s armour from taking damage from the Arthropleura spit attack
• Warmed, should protect the dino and rider from freezing attacks; available as a Trinket

Bannok

• player craft inventory has a note explaining some of this
• raw Bannok poisons like raw meat does
• raw Bannok becomes Cooked Bannok in a Cooking Fire, Fireplace, Grill, and Bonfire; it is akin to Cooked Meat
• in BrIm Bonfire, raw plus any berry becomes PrimeCooked; it is akin to Cooked Prime Meat
• in Preserving Bin, cooked plsu sparkpowder becomes Biscuit in ; this is akin to Jerky
• in Preserving Bin, PrimeCooked plus sparkpowder becomes Biscotti; this is akin to PrimeJerky
• in BrIm Fryer, raw plus water plus honey becomes Milk; can be consumed, might tame Cats, might protect from Wyvern fire attack
• in Dehydrator, Bannok Milk plus squid oil becomes Condensed Milk; can be used to grow a baby up faster and imprint; can feed manually, House Calls will automate
• Raw, Cooked, PrimeCooked, and milk can spoil; this is akin to Spoiled Meat

Weapons / Ammo

• Stone Sickle to harvest raw Bannok; does not harvest under water
• Steel hatchet, Mithril pick, and hatchet
• hunger arrows and darts (does no torpor) - three tiers; arrows only work with bows, superior arrows - bows and crossbows
• enhanced tranq arrows and darts (also reduces food) - three tiers; arrows only work with bows
• healing darts - 25% across 20 seconds; values may change
• Air Pistol/Dart/Cylinder - fires underwater, short range, massive torpor over 1 min; cylinder is attachment, powers it, degrades over time; when an Air Cylinder is used up it is destroyed (removed form weapon and inventory)

Resources

• Steel ingots, to make steel pick, hatchet, and pike; about twice damage of core
• Mithril ore and ingots (harvested with BrIm Pick), to make pick, hatchet, and pike; about four times damage of core
• Bannok (vegetarian food):
• raw is harvested with Stone Sickle
• raw is cooked in campfire, fireplace, bonfire, industrial grill; cooks faster than meat
• raw plus honey is cooked in cooking pot or industrial cooker, to make prime Bannok
• when placed in a Preserving Bin, Bannok plus Azulberries crafts ‘Biscuits’ i.e. Jerky, and Prime Bannok plus Azulberries crafts Biscotti i.e. prime jerky
  • Note that crafting of Prime Bannok, Biscotti, and Biscuit may change

Pending / Ideas

• Redlight Sight (i.e. Desmodus heat vision)
• Escapade - prevent you from being webbed, etc
• Various offensive buffs: Pugilist (prevents target from flying, jumping, or running), Slasher (target takes bleed damage), Immolation (target is set on fire), Shocker (target is electrified), Chiller (target is frozen)
