Is it possible to separate, for example, cooking over a campfire (with your own field tools and recipes), cooking at home in the kitchen (with your own recipes and tools) and cooking in a professional room? So that these data arrays do not overlap and are not displayed at the same time.
Hi, how are you? Let's see, it's a Simple Cooking system. I mean, you can create recipes and custom tools, but it doesn't have super-complex features, as they would be difficult to program.
I roughly understand what you're looking for... I suppose you could create several similar recipes with the same prerequisite items but that use and require different tools and produce different results. Combine this with the Unlock Switch system, which allows a recipe to be enabled or disabled depending on the status of a switch and, depending on where you are, whether you activate certain switches.
I suppose it would be the only possible way to do it with the current system.
I haven't purchased the plugin yet. I'm thinking, looking for options. There are no international bank transfers in my country due to the sanctions. Therefore, every purchase needs to be considered. I often have to use the services of unscrupulous intermediaries. But these are my difficulties) It doesn't matter. The question is different. Unlocking a recipe - is when studying. But it doesn't allow you to track which recipes were learned in which branch. And quickly edit the lists during development. In addition, is it possible to connect the background image to the window and modify it?
The recipes themselves can only be unlocked (if configured that way in the plugin parameters) exclusively with Switches. Don’t forget that a "Recipe" is defined as the ability to generate an item: "Result", by combining other items with a specific tool.
The recipe book is a "memory aid" to quickly load recipes. That is, it allows us to directly load into the interface the materials (ingredients) needed to produce a specific recipe. The plugin command that unlocks a recipe simply unlocks the entry in the Recipe Book, but as I explained before, recipes are only unlocked with a Switch of the player's choice. By default, all recipes are already unlocked unless specifically blocked by a Switch. And in the case of the recipe book, the entry will only appear once the recipe has been crafted at least once, or has been unlocked with the specific plugin command.
This means that if, for example, my Pizza recipe requires: 1x Dough with Yeast, 1x Tomato Sauce, and 3x Cheeses, and I’ve never made a Pizza before, it will not appear in the Recipe Book. But if I manually input those ingredients in the correct quantity, the system will allow me to make the Pizza, and once I do, I’ll unlock that entry in the Recipe Book. If that Pizza was blocked by a Switch, then depending on what I’ve set in the plugin parameters, it could either display a Lock message or simply not appear as available to craft (as if the recipe doesn’t exist, basically). I hope I explained myself clearly.
As for the UI, for now, it doesn't support setting a background image in the scene, and it uses the RPG MAKER MZ default windows from your Window Skin. Just like in the game menus. So currently there is no way to make the interface "transparent."
I hope I’ve answered your questions. And I understand your situation—unfortunately, many countries complicate these kinds of matters. If I can help with anything else, don’t hesitate to let me know.
A comprehensive answer. Thank you. If you get inspired, think about a way to separate the different areas that can be used by crafting. And about the transparency of the substrate, so that someone as meticulous as me could be absolutely happy. I will keep a close eye and hope!
Hey, greetings from Germany
I like your plugin so far, but I encountered a small problem.
I can imagine that others have the same problem.
I have recipes with almost the same ingredients,
e.g. Hamburger (bread, lettuce, patty, tomato)
and Cheeseburger (bread, patty, lettuce, cucumber, cheese)
The Hamburger Reciepe works, but not the Cheeseburger
The plugin says that I have the same ingredients
and should specify my recipe!
I have tried several combinations but it just wont work
I'm sorry to hear you're having difficulties with the plugin.
To review your particular case, we'll do the following:
Contact me via Direct Contact on my Support page, and attach a demo and a detailed explanation of the problem you're experiencing in your request, including everything you need and want to accomplish. This way, I can replicate your issue and work better to understand the inconvenience you're experiencing. Remember to attach everything necessary for me to replicate the problem. You can upload the demo to a file hosting service such as Google Drive, MediaFire, etc.
Thank you very much!
Hello. How are you? As far as I remember, the issue was already resolved. Have you tried using the latest version of the plugin? (Even try the alternative version) And make sure you have all the parameters configured correctly.

Let me explain:
Here, there are two different concepts:
The recipes themselves can only be unlocked (if configured that way in the plugin parameters) exclusively with Switches. Don’t forget that a "Recipe" is defined as the ability to generate an item: "Result", by combining other items with a specific tool.

I'm having the exact same issue as Daboth85.
Otherwise, this is a great plugin. It allows for a pretty robust cooking system and it's easy to set up.

I replaced the plugin with the alternative version and the recipes with similar ingredients worked correctly. Thank you!
🥳
My dreams came true with this plugin, thank you so much Maxi!!! ❤
