🎮 Basic Gameplay

Core Equipment

Order System

Multiple order types are available:

• Orders of different levels
• Rush orders
• Long-distance delivery orders
• Walk-in customers (yellow border, right-click to take their order)

Pick and choose which orders to accept. Prepare the food at the Countertop, then either package it for delivery or plate it for dine-in service.

Menu System (Brand New!)

• ✨ Removed the old blacklist/whitelist system
• ✨ New "Sign Board" block: Place it and configure your restaurant's menu inside.
• ✨ Smart menu recognition: Orders will only generate items that are on your Sign Board menu.
• ✨ Premium food bonuses: Higher-satiety foods within the same level provide extra rewards.

📈 Level System Rework

Order Machine Levels

• Increased level cap: Your restaurant can now reach up to Level 8!
• More perks: Each level grants better reward bonuses.
• Satiety influence: Upgrading the Order Machine now takes into account the total satiety of all items on your Sign Board menu — encouraging you to offer a richer, higher-quality selection of dishes!

🎉 What's New in Version 1.3

Detailed Animations

Starting with version 1.3, we've been adding smooth animations for players, customers, and blocks, including:

• Player idle animation when sitting on a chair
• Cheer animation (left-click while seated)
• Dishwashing animation
• Scooter riding animation
• Block animations for the Order Machine (new order alert), Refrigerator, Dishwasher, Stove, and more
• 4 idle animations for customers, plus entrance and exit animations

Scooter

A new vehicle — the scooter! How could you deliver food without one?

• Left-click to honk, right-click to toggle headlights
• Dye it with red, blue, yellow, or white dye
• Automatically equips a helmet when you mount up (safety first!)
• Shift+right-click, or press E while riding, to open the insulated storage box. Packages stored inside will show an arrow indicator in the tooltip. Supports multiple delivery packages at once.

Restaurant Leaderboard

• Access the leaderboard from the Order Machine to see how all restaurants on the server are performing.
• The top restaurant (sorted by total earnings by default) earns a hidden achievement. No other bonuses for now.

Dish System

New Blocks:

• Plate Shelf: Use the "Plate" function at the Countertop to serve dine-in customers on reusable plates instead of consuming leather for packaging. Plating also displays a variety of random food models for extra visual flair.
• Sink: After customers finish eating, they leave a "dirty plate" on the table. Place it in the Sink, then right-click with an empty hand to start scrubbing!

Effects of Using Plates:

• Customers will play eating animations when served with plates, with a chance to trigger a "so tasty it explodes" effect.
• In future updates, this will also help boost your restaurant's rating and earnings!

Advanced Kitchen Appliances (New in 1.3.5)

Upgrade your kitchen with the OtC Upgrade Box:

• Refrigerator — Double-door, 2-block tall. Food stack limit increased to 128. Allows the Countertop to pull ingredients directly from the fridge. Upgrades from a 2-block tall barrel.
• Dishwasher — Fully automatic dishwashing. Upgrades from the Sink.
• Stove — Cooks up to 3 types of food at once. Also functions as a stove for Farmers' Delight, Farm & Charm, and Forest Kitchen. Upgrades from the Smoker.
