Items Requiring Testing & Adding

There are section-specific edit notes hidden in the page in each section. Aside from those changes...

  • Fish Fillet
  • Any other trapping meats
    • Rabbit Meat
    • Small Bird Meat
  • Bacon Bits (b27 vs b28 change maybe?)
  • Any other items that need updating from the numbers provided by Bowlympicshero
  • Roasted Vegetables chart
  • Salt & Pepper (Push It)
  • Poisons (or should that be a separate page?)
    • Separate page, since all recipes can take poison (I think), but the game mechanic functions differently than an ingredient (but kind of like a spice), as well as a section in the Cooking Guide

Organization of Info

Two types of tables:

  • One for each recipe so that ingredients are displayed how they are now but more neatly.
    • Answers the question "What can I put in ______?" (This is done.)
  • One in a new section below the recipe sections that shows all ingredients together, organized like the excel sheet. That way the data is more available and anyone can add to it easily, compared to a private Excel doc.
    • Answers the question "What can I make if I have ______?" (This is done.)

  • Also, reorganize this page so it reflects the new organization of the Recipe Ingredients page more clearly.


Raw & Cooked Meats

I ended up omitting cooked versions of ingredients from recipes that can take the raw version. Now that I've realized this, I'm not sure if it should be kept that way or not. I suppose it has a little to do with people's play-styles and the way players interact with their ingredients. Since the wiki considers cooked versions of an item to be the same item (no page for cooked steak f.e.), I suppose I'm going to leave it like this for now. But in the future if it becomes awkward or doesn't make sense it should be changed. Hemilash (talk) 23:07, 17 August 2014 (BST)


NOTE: Game does not treat cooked, burnt, or rotten food as separate items. Cooked, burnt, and rotten are merely modifiers to the base raw item. Raw and Cooked meat tables can be condensed into 1 table. Use either bg colors or font colors to denote item MUST be cooked. --Bowlympicshero (talk) 19:00, 18 August 2014 (BST)


This change has been adopted for the Food-in-Recipe tables section. Background color is used to show which items can only be used when cooked (though a secondary & subtle method might be added for colorblind users). For the Recipe Ingredients section...yeah, we'll probably just go with the same format actually, just for visual continuity. I'll see how it looks. Hemilash (talk) 16:50, 19 August 2014 (BST)

Try using a superscript C(C) or other symbol to help colorblind users. --Bowlympicshero (talk) 18:52, 19 August 2014 (BST)


This is kinda what I have in mind to replace the spreadsheet, but I just realized it's going to take a while to go back and get all the numbers:

Ripped values from item scripts. --Bowlympicshero (talk) 01:32, 19 August 2014 (BST)
