Why i lose my glass jar when i make foods with her? I mix the glass with the food or something? I know it’s not a big problem but it’s meaningless anyway

You are clumsy and break the jar EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.

More seriously, it's related to the way the game handles crafting. It can only output one item when you craft something. Anyway when you get your hand on a forge you will have infinite jars.

It does not make much sense, but it is how the game works. If you look around, there is a mod or two our there that will return the jar to the output slot.

Consider this though: finding glass jars in toilets doesn't make much sense either...

Handmade jars are thin, and the glass gets weakened from heating and cooling of foods and boiling water.

Crafting 250 jars from some sand takes about 5 seconds to start the job.

Also, why most toilets have glass jars in them?

They come from nothing, they go to nothing. I would rename them to air jars.

why are there dead people running around? And why can I carry 10 car engines, and heal broken arms in 1 hour?

Someone should make a mod to take everything "unrealistic" out of the game. They can call it - blank screen mod.

The problem I have with it is that it is not consistent. You boil murky water in a jar for water or tea. You drink it and get the jar back. You boil meat, an egg, or corn in the jar, and you don't. Where is the consistency? Maybe baking cornbread in a jar should be different since it would be a much higher temperature, but then it becomes an almost useless food since it gives such low food value. I don't think things necessarily need to be realistic, but it would be nice if things made sense within the game.

Nothing about games are supposed to make sense all the time, this is why we call it the "fantasy realm". If it's not real enough for you, may I suggest experiencing real life?

It isn't too much to ask for a logical outcome, and while it is a game there should still be a small consideration given. The game tells us eating glass is bad, but somehow the glass jar has vanished into the food.

The consistency is in the resulting item.

When you boil murky water or for tea, you're drinking liquid FROM a jar; Ergo, you still have the jar and from it you drink the drink.

When you boil corn, or an egg, you have the item but no jar- You're not eating a boiled egg in a jar, you're eating a boiled egg that had been taken from the jar when it was done cooking. Same with corn on the cob- It's not still in the jar.

Liquids made in jars you actively have the jar with you when you drink it, and indeed must be contained within a jar to not just splash over the ground since you have nothing to hold it in. While solid foods you would presumably not still be carrying it around in the jar and adding that extra weight to yourself for no reason.


As stated earlier in the thread, You can only get one result from a crafted item. So you get Tea(in a jar) or Corn. Not Tea+a jar or Corn+a jar. And while they could just make you get a jar back when you eat a boiled egg/corn/whatever, that in itself does not make sense since the icon doesn't have a jar in it, and subseuquently assumes that every single boiled egg/corn on the cob/etc in the entire world is in a jar since you can obtain them via methods other than having crafted it yourself, which is itself weird.

I know it's not exactly a problem, I just say it because it doesn't make sense, games generally don't make sense, but it doesn't make sense and it spends resources for nothing, I love this game for me what's missing is more optimization and bug fixing but this everyone knows

Something to do with the code I assume...a shame.
