how to save a few lines of code
Posted: 10 Mar 2004 08:01 AM
I'm going to be fairly specific about food crafting here, but I dont really think it's going to confer an unfair advantage IG to anyone.
Since a bakers oven came with Avari's house I thought it might be mildly fun to have her bake some bread. The first thing I realized was that her oven doesnt work (no menu when items are put in). Undaunted I decided to use the bakery in Brandibuck. Come to find out that baking bread is a rather intensive process. There are 4 ingredients needed to make wheat bread. 1 can be bought in the bakery and the other is made available there. Of the other 2 one item takes 3 ingredients to make with Avari's success chance being 45%---upon success no food crafting points are gained. The other item is more complicated. It takes 4 created items to make---each one consisting of 2 items. So 8 eight items total assuming no failures. To create one of the 4 Avari's chance is 45%. Upon a success she receives 5 food crafting points. Then to put the 4 items together she has a 45% chance of success, and if successful receives 5 food crafting points. Then, finally having gotten together the 4 items for wheat bread her success chance is 45%---upon a successful result she gets 3 adventuring xp, 22 food crafting xp, and no bread in sight . At this rate I dont believe very many folks are going to be using the food crafting ingredients and placeables.

If the oven does not work then that means that whoever built your house did not use the Vives-customized oven placeable. Instead they used the standard CNR oven placeable.

The bread is quite a labor-intensive item, I agree. The steps prior to the actual baking were not examined for possible revision before I ceased to be on the project.

And, thank you for reporting the failure of the bread to appear. It is a mismatch between the item name and the name referred to in the dcript. That can be fixed.

To whoever handles the scripts now:

sKeyToRecipe = CnrRecipeCreateRecipe(sMenuBakeBreads, "Wheat Bread", "rations_2_WheaBr", 1);

should be

sKeyToRecipe = CnrRecipeCreateRecipe(sMenuBakeBreads, "Wheat Bread", "rations_2_WheBr", 1);

Dieties preserve us from the evil chaotics named Lag, Crash, and Server Reset.
