Better Breeding

Description
This mod adds consumables to facilitate the breeding process for your tamed creatures! All of the recipes are prepared in a Cooking Pot or Industrial Cooker. The recipes won't show up in the list, you just need to put the ingredients in and they will cook, same as normal cooking recipes.

Sex Change Potion (Female) - Turns your tame into a female.
# 1x Rare Flower, 1x Giant Bee Honey, 1x Blood Pack (+ water source)

Sex Change Potion (Male) - Turns your tame into a male.
# 1x Woolly Rhino Horn, 5x Achatina Paste, 1x Blood Pack (+ water source)

Breeding Energy Enhancer - This special potion will make your tamed creature immediately ready to mate.
# 1x Woolly Rhino Horn, 1x Rare Flower, 5x Oil, 10x Stimulant (+ water source)

Re-Imprinting Potion - This special potion will change the imprinted player for the current tame.
# 5x Black Pearl, 2x Sap, 10x Human Hair (+ water source)
NOTE: This will imprint the dino to whichever player last had the potion in their inventory. This will usually be you but in the case where someone else put it in the dino inventory, it will be them.

Imprint Quality Potion - This special potion will improve the imprinting quality for the current tame.
# 1x Giant Bee Honey, 10x Citronal, 10x Cooked Prime Meat (+ water source)
NOTE: This potion will increase Imprint Quality by 20% for the current tame. This potion can only be used once every 24 hours.

Mod ID: 1903268902

Doesn't break the server when I load it up like other mods after today's patch. Anyone able to confirm if it's still working?

From my playing it was of no issue it only added the recipe to be visible in the cooker but if i face any problem i'll report it as fast as i can

@spiderhouse I intentionally did not take any dependencies on any other mods to make this mod as compatible as possible. However, this also means that some mods may choose to not respect the recipes added to the base game Cooking Pot / Industrial Cooker. However, if they do follow the same recipes, then they will work as well.

i played after i commented by a few days and noticed the blueprints in the vanilla cooking pot so i thought you already done it but maybe S+ or one of the other mods have done it automatically

@Loumos I'm not familiar with Primal Fear but it is definitely possible if it overrides Cooking Pot or Industrial Cooker behavior.

mod doesnt work with primal fear. ive tried to set it as the second in loading and nope.

@spiderhouse No, that's not how it works. It works basically like all other cooking recipes. This is an intentionnal design decision. Simply put the correct ingredients into the cooking pot, turn it on and they will cook.

is it possible to have like a blueprint ready in the pot like S+ does or no?

@Exodhya then there might be another mod that is conflicting. You can start a new game with just this mod enabled to make sure that it works for you and then identify which other mods you are running that might interfere. Make sure that the fire is lit and that you have a water source as well.

Its not working for me. I try to craft following the recipies in the description, but nothing happens. And yes, im using regular cooking pot, not S+ or anything
