Kibble Converter

Description
In Order to have a immersive way to play a bit only doing kibble tames I wanted the option to upgrade kibble by a level.
In this version you can learn how to create better kibble using lower tiers.
Basic -> Small
Small -> Regular
Regular -> Superior
Superior -> Exceptional
Exceptional -> Extraordinary

Because of how the different types of kibble are connected, sadly I have to work around some problems, therefore it is a bit more complicated than just crafting it.
You have to learn, build and place a "Kibble Mixer", then in higher levels you learn the engrams for each upgrade.
Place 3 or more of the lower tier in the Mixer, then let it craft. now you have to take the result out of the mixer, let it sit for a few seconds and it turns into real kibble.

Also because I can not work around the problem, that each tier is also a valid ingridiant for the same level, be carefull to only place kibble of the level you want to use in the mixer.
Example, if you placed blue kibble in the mixer and start crafting the blue one, it can happen it takes three of the blue ones and create 1 new, destroying the other two.

Update:
Default is 3:1 on each level.
It is not craftable in the inventory anymore, it requires the "Kibble Mixer"

I Still try to make it configurable but still have not figured out how to make it work.

Can you make it capable of converting augmented kibble too?

I can place the Kibble Mixer only on natural ground, not on Foundation or Tables or anything else build. Is this a known bug?

Yes, I am also very unhappy how the Game handles the different kibble tier. That makes it so complicated.
I hope the new version is a bit better, now you have to use the kibble mixer (an special Mortar and Pestle) to craft it and it has a cool down step before becoming real Kibble. To finish an Update it has to be taken out of the Mixer and put in your Inventory,
Let me know if that is working better or if I need to explain it better.

Have fun

would love to have this mod but it works very unstable.
It have critical troubles if u have Augmented kibbles in yr invertory. Converting starts to being total crazy. It converts extraordynary kibbles to basics. so really impossible to use or must be almost clean inventory.

Sadly I put some hours into this problem already and don't know any way to fix it. It works fine in the devkit. but after releasing to the game it is ignoring the setting in the recipe.

Only save workaround is to only have the level you want to convert and putting the upgraded ones into a chest while crafting more.

Hey, I think there is a problem with crafting kibbles. I had 3 basic kibbles in my inventory and 2 regular ones, and to craft a simple kibble the mod primarily used the regular kibbles instead of the basic ones. You may need to give it priority in the items used for crafting a recipe, or create an upgrade recipe and a downgrade recipe. I don't know what is possible. But anyway the mode is cool and very useful :). Good continuation and thank you for the work provided.

eh, I will just be sure to throw away "extra's" till you sort it.
Kri5  [author] 12 Oct, 2020 @ 3:37pm 
looks like the configurable cost is not work yet... still looking into it.

interesting, I will give this a go, Kibble aint really too much of a problem with the reworked kibble since the only eggs you really need are Rex eggs or eggs of similar size, I mean sure thats only 2nd best Kibble but you can make them easy enough and can tame most stuff, this is still a nice mod tho, I may even tame dodo's and stuff now, since this mod allows one to get better tames without going through all the trouble of setting up a farm to get others, just means you need lots of dodo eggs, which aint a problem! the chickens of ark have plenty to spare!
