New Seasonings

Description
This mod replaces Warly's classic seasonings with new seasonings which do actually affect the statistics of the dish or depend on their statstics.

It bugged me that the only dishes which were worth it to be seasoned were Powdercake for Honey Crystals, Jellybeans for Garlic Powder and Volt Goat Chaud-Froid for Chili Flakes due to their long perish time or since they're more useful if used together. Also the recipes of the seasonings were not really creative and required you to set up a big farm before being able to make use of them, which meant that there was no need of taking your Portable Seasoning Station on a journey since all the required ingredients could be obtained in and only in your base.
So I designed my own set of seasonings which should be more viable and make Warly feel more like a chef.

New Seasonings
  • Toma Sauce: 1x Toma Root, 1x Carrot for 2x Seasoning
    Grants +3 health, +12.5 hunger, +5 sanity to any kind of dish
  • Cap Mix: 1x Red Cap, 1x Green Cap for 2x Seasoning
    Inverts the health and sanity stats of a dish
  • Autumn's Plate: 1x Potato, 2x Roasted Birchnut, 1x Butterfly Wings for 2x Seasoning
    Turns the health and sanity stats of a dish into hunger
  • Fruit Crystals: 1x Fist Full of Jam, 3x Honey for 2x Seasoning
    Grants the same buff as Honey Crystals and depending on the health stats of the dish it will reduce sanity drain by up to 50% and depending on the sanity stats it will increase your movement speed by up to 30% for the next 5 minutes
    Note: Eating another dish with the same seasoning will cancel the buffs of the previous seasoning

  • Seasoning Salt: 3x Salt Crystals for 2x Seasoning
    Negates any penalties from stale or spoiled food and reduces perish by 25% (food lasts 33% longer, introduced to award players who season their food before it becomes stale)
    Note: It doesn't increase the health value of the dish by 25% anymore.

  • Quality Seasoning: 1x Eggplant, 1x Egg, 1x Kelp Fronds for 2x Seasoning
    Increases the stats of the dish (health, hunger and sanity) by 33%
  • Garlic Powder: 1x Garlic, 1x Blue Cap for 2x Seasoning
    Grants you the stats of the dish plus 20 health and 20 sanity over the next 8 minutes, similar to how Jellybeans do work
    Note: The effect of Garlic Food doesn't stack and eating another Garlic Dish cancels the effect of the previous Garlic Dish. Jellybeans on the other hand don't cancel the effect of your Garlic Food.
    It also doesn't reduce recieved damage by 33% anymore.

  • Pungency Enhancer: 1x Pepper, 1x Cactus Flesh for 2x Seasoning
    Increases or reduces your temperature depending on the stats of the dish. Dishes with more health than sanity will warm you up, others will cool you down. It also prevents dishes from loosing heat over time and dishes which already grant heat won't be affected by sanity and vice versa.
    Best dishes to warm up are: Waffles, Dragonpie, Wobster Bisque, Stuffed Pepper Poppers, Honey Ham
    Best dishes to cool down are: Ice Cream, Jelly Salad, Banana Pop, Vegetable Stinger, Salsa Fresca

I'm open to suggestions and feedback, to balance the current seasonings or to add more seasonings. But the new seasonings should fulfill the following rules:
  • The effect of the seasoning should either affect the dish or depend on the dish: Powdercake and Jellybeans shouldn't be the only two dishes which are worth to be seasoned
  • The crafting recipe should be more creative than just 3x Pepper: A recipe which requires a wider range of ingredients found across the world or which makes certain ingredients more useful for Warly is more welcome on my list

Please report any bugs you find.

Known issues:
  • Seasonings do affect the stats of favorite food, increasing them by more or less than 15 hunger, e.g. Trail Mix with Toma Sauce will restore 55 hunger instead of 40 for Walter

V1.1.1:
Fixed a bug which caused your character to despawn.
V1.1:
Garlic Powder: Replaced 1x Lesser Glow Berry with 1x Blue Cap, now grants +20 health and +20 sanity on any dish, amount of obtained seasonings reduced from 3 to 2
Cap Mix: Removed Blue Cap from the recipe, health to sanity and sanity to health ratios are now 1:1
Added 2 new seasonings

Have fun!

Sadly crashes the game nowadays when a player eats seasoned food

I know the mod is sadly not active anymore, but I would like to say, the toma sauce is worth less than its base components. A cooked tomato gives 20 hp and 12.5 hunger, so bare minimum, for a tomato and a carrot, we should be getting 23 hp and 25 hunger.

I wonder if we can configure the stats on some of the spices. Like Fruit Crystals giving 30% from just 3 honey and fist full of jam is suuuuuper cheap. A walking cane only gives 25% and you have to wait for winter to get it and that it cost gold etc to only get 25%. I wonder if the Fruit Crystals can be nerfed to 15%? A Mag gives 20% and players would have to venture down the caves.

Wow very thoughtful mod. Yeah this definitely adds complexity to Warly's character which is amazing. I do agree that Powder Cake and Jellybeans are overly used.

is this mod compatible with the modern crafting table?

Why does the food with seasoning powder fall off the line

Why would ever someone make toma sauce? Its not worth it at all.

Can you make the mod that anyone can access to Warly's exclusive tab like portable crock pot, grill, etc, and seasoning that only warly can make it?

@Viktor thanks for answering and kindly suggesting solution :)

@Nicola Void: Sorry but I'm not too much interested in server mods anymore since I do almost only play on public servers. It might be a nice concept but Warly's seasonings don't seem to be too popular among players.

Feel free to find some other modders who could revive this mod, the coding might be bit bad and incompatible between other mods which introduce more seasonings to the game since it was my first attempt to make a server mod.
