Updates Check-In & WIP Progress
🕑 Added 2021-07-26 04:28:42 +0000 UTCHey All!
So I spent all weekend working on harvestable updates. There were quite a few things I needed to troubleshoot, the biggest 2 being the notebook entries and harvestable tags.
I was going to get into the details about the notebook entry issues but I don't won't to bore you all. As of right now I've created a work-around for it that works and looks similar to the new notebook entries that EA has done.
I've also gone through almost all the new tags so I can categorize my stuff to show up how I want it to moving forward. Originally I was going to tag my stuff based on how EA did theirs until I realized it was a mess. There are a bunch of tags that aren't used, or include a bunch of debug items that ( I feel) shouldn't be tagged at all. Not to mention to get them to work I would need an override for the new market stalls and I just don't think doing it that way is efficient. Because of that I instead worked out a system of tags so I can categorize everything in a more organized way and instead of using EA's purchasing menus I'm going to expand and better organize the 'Shop BrazenLotus' Farms' mod to incorporate all the new items, including the ingredients.
I'm about halfway through fixing harvestables - the troubleshooting I had to do set me behind. EA actually reproduced (and made better lol) several of my garden effects and made them obsolete so I removed or re-made them. Because of that you'll see that I've gotten rid of some plant effects to keep things simpler and work with how EA updated the harvestables. I really wanted these done yesterday but it's better to do them right the first time and not have to go back to update them later. I'm hoping to have them done by tomorrow or Tuesday night. I'll have to wait for S4S to update in order to update the blueberry and raspberry harvestables since I'll be making overrides for them.
Recipes are next but I'm pretty confident they aren't going to take as long as harvestables, I've already scoped them out and the changes I need to make seem pretty straightforward.š¤š¼
White Lotus Patrons, I just posted some pre-release stuff for you just keep in mind that they still need updates.
For Pink Lotus Patrons, as I said previously I have a bunch of objects for you, some yard sale tables and more storage items for ingredients. I'm waiting on S4S to update so I can make it a complete set by adding some Cottage Living items before posting it but if it looks like it will take too long I'll release what I have around mid-week and just add to it later. I also made a couple of other mods while organizing and updating including a mod that 'adds' some new ingredient categories and a quick mod that changes 'White Meat' and 'Red Meat' to Chicken Meat and Beef because white or red meat could be anything and I needed some clarity lol.
For Golden Lotus Patrons, I'm about half done with a Willow Creek save that will have forage-able plants scattered throughout the world, yay! The changes only apply to that save file but you can copy it if you need to. After a couple of weeks this will be available to Pink Lotus Patrons, then White Lotus Patrons, then publicly. Once I get caught up on updates I'll post a discussion for the next lot I want to work on.
Phew, that was a lot! I'm going to wrap up for the night since I have work in the morning š£ but you should see some updates from me soon!

Thank you! Iām excited to add everything of yours back into the game. Your harvestables are some of my faves. Not sure if it helps but Icemunmun did some overrides on the new market stalls and said she added tags so others can add their produce to the market stalls as well.
