Advanced crafting?

Post by ShatteredCiv »

Is it possible (in the editor) to create crafting items - much like the pestle and mortar to combine items into better items? For instance, could I create a crafting "bag" that you could drop items into - such as a stick and a rag and some oil - to make a torch? How about combining a Sulphorous potion with other ingredients in order to make a superior potion using just the pestle and mortar? Anyone know? Devs?

These are a bit borderline at the moment. Custom potion recipes should be quite easy but adding new crafting items is harder. I'll look into it but no promises yet. We want to release this pretty soon, so adding new features at this point might not be the best idea! :)

Understandable, and thanks for responding. Maybe a future patch might bring some happy surprises!

A follow up, I just added support for custom crafting recipes which can be used with the mortar & pestle item.

Wow - awesome petri - I haven't had a developer offer so much support for their game since Duke Nukem's: Manhattan Project - the boys at Sunstorm Interactive were top notch, as you guys are. I am so glad I brought this game and am happy to support you in this endeavor. Cheers mate! I can't wait for the DLC (and this is something coming from me) - I normally don't buy into the DLC, but so far I have hit the 100 hour mark playing your game, and can't wait to put 3 times more into it!
