Functional Appliances

This mod was created to give some functionality to objects in the game that currently have no use.

They now have function and will convert instant popcorn packets and Sapph's corn kernels into edible popcorn without the pain of burning the food. Popcorn buckets are also added and you can butter the popcorn when in a bucket.

They also have function and will keep from burning those priceless sausages. It uses the base sausages and sliced bread in the game to make hotdogs. If you have Sapph's Cooking mod installed you can also use the sausages and hotdog buns from that mod as well.

Are now plumbed objects and will dispense water for all the uses. It also dispenses soda to fountain cups and refills soda/water bottles for preserved use. They use soda syrups and CO2 tanks to operate. Just drop them into the counter the table top unit is on or put them inside the Slurp 'n Burp stand alone unit. These can now pull materials from any static container in the square or the square behind them. If water is a problem, try using water jugs from the Water Dispenser mod.

Setup the kegs in furniture containers with the taps connected and you can pour them into red cups, beer mugs, and refill bottles. Kegs pulled from any static container in the square with the bar taps. Compatible with More Brews and More Brews kegs now spawn in bar tap counters in 2.0!

These are now temperature settable appliances for food storage. Some have Hot, Warm, or Cold others just Warm and Cold. Each segment has it's own settings. Now automatically spawn on when they can and switch to cold in ice cream parlors, cafes, bakeries, etc. Pizza parlors and other restaurants will default to warm. Soda Machines automatically default to cold.

The deep fryers are now setup to randomly have vegetable oil in them. You can add and drain the oil. If you have power you can turn them on and fry various foods that usually need a pan of oil with Sapph's Cooking mod. A few new recipes have been added: Doughboys, Chicken Fillets, Chicken Tenders, Blooming Onions, and Fried Cheese Sticks. Added Sapph's Cooking Oil for a second option to fill the vats.

They have a minor interaction. If you touch them they might just ring but they'll attracted anyone that happens to be listening...

They will now display the time. Clicking on them will give you the current time. Wall clocks work based on electrical availability, once off the grid they run off a built in battery that slowly drains. Power up a generator and they will recharge over time. If you are desperate, you can drop a new standard flashlight battery into them, but that's a one way trip. Clocks now show 12hr format and stop when dead. All times accurate to the minute when powered.

They show up as small containers and come standard with a few loose napkins. Napkins can now dry off players and wet napkins can wash off dirt and blood. In order to allow compatibility, the new ones drop in the dispensers. Vanilla game napkins have a conversion recipe to use them as well.

Turn on the machines and make coffee. Use mugs, teacups, and thermos or lowballs from Sapph's. Tea and instant coffee options exist in the vanilla game to make a quick fix. Add Sapph's to get coffee beans that can be ground in the espresso machine. Then you can brew coffee or espresso. Take the espresso and foam it up in the espresso machine with any "Milk" type item and turn it into a latte or cappuccino. Don't forget you need power and water. If the water is off, any source in inventory will be used for the coffee.

Both large and small corkboards, you can now add things into it's container and the random notices appear as overlays.

Containers that spawn with tools and have an overlay.

Containers that spawn with pool cues and have an overlay.

It has the same depletion of fuel as a standard generator and the same radius of power. It can be turned on/off manually and has an auto start feature. It can be used as a backup to other generators and sense when it's time to start. It can be repaired with electronic scrap or scrap metal but will need the generator skill, electrical 4, or mechanics 4. The standard generator manual can spawn with the machine. It has a 500 fuel unit capacity and can be filled or emptied while running. There is no need to connect these as they are stationary and already connected. If found indoors they are also vented to keep the toxins out. If they run out of fuel they will shutdown, if they run out of condition they make a loud *BOOM* that attracts zombies in the area. Now moveable in 2.0 thanks to the Green Oven Corporation! "When your power is lean, buy Green!"

A few mods have great synergy with this one and I integrated some of their items with this mod but not required. For instance, some of Sapph's Cooking items are used for food items, candies will spawn in the movie theatres, and the water jugs can be used for soda fountains. I left the links as I learned a lot from them. A big thanks to all of them for their great work!

If you see any bugs let me know. I tried to make the functions and items as unique as possible to keep from any conflicts. A big thank you to everyone that has helped with identifying the bugs and Lazarus for his support and time fighting them on our server to try and make things right.

Thank you and enjoy!
