[Override base game recipe]

Following the steps in the thread I linked worked.

 

To be clear:

 

Included the original base recipe in my mod script file, adding the property "Obsolete: true" to it. Then, adding my own recipe (I did so in the same file) with the property "Override:true".

 

Cheers tommy!

I remember seeing in one of the recent(ish) updates that they fixed this problem... or provided a work around or something. I know this isn't much help, but if you do a search for recipes and look in the update section, the answer might be there. Or it might require you to be in the IWBUMS branch.

 

At your suggestion I was able to find this thread: https://theindiestone.com/forums/index.php?/topic/21914-help-obsoletetrue-recipefeature/&tab=comments#comment-251392

 

 

I'll try that when I get home from and work and examine the properties of recipes more closely as well, and provide an update then.

[Override base game recipe]

I've been doing some research, and I see that overriding an item for the base game is pretty straightforward. However, I can't seem to override a base game recipe.

 

I want to change the way the "Gather Gunpowder" recipe works for a mod I'm working on, but when I do something like (having copied the recipe and editing it, to account for any typos) the following, I just end up with the base game recipe and then the one that I added, instead of it replacing the base one.

module Base{

   recipe Gather Gunpowder{

   xyz...

   }

}

 

Is there another method for replacing base game recipes? I searched the forum for examples, but could only find ones relating to items.
