Plant cheese.
« on: August 17, 2014, 04:06:59 pm »

I was playing one of my mods for 31.25, and I noticed there was an option in the stockpile for cheese made from plants. (Obviously there was nothing in there, but still.)

Does this mean it would be possible to mod in plant cheese? If so, how?

There's a material token called [CHEESE_PLANT]

It isn't used in any of the default materials, but you could just make a copy of the animal cheese template and replace its [CHEESE_CREATURE] token with [CHEESE_PLANT]

You would then add this material to a plant of your choosing. You would likely have to make a reaction to turn the plant into cheese as well.

The idea of "plant cheese" is something that's actually existed in the game since the very first release just over 8 years ago, but until version 0.31.01 it wasn't actually possible to create it - plants could define temperature values for cheese, but if you created a CHEESE item with a plant gloss it'd just have a blank name because they were only partially implemented. In the current version, though, you could definitely make working plant cheeses.

It's amazing how dwarves can make a stack of bones completely waterproof and magmaproof.

Plant cheese is also the end product of the bread mod, which is nice for flavour purposes and excellent for smaller-harvest mods.
It's probably a bit excessive in Vanilla DF though.
