Hi, Paraleo! Thank you for your feedback.

I've just uploaded a new option called "Batch Crafting" to the Options menu. It can be set to:
- Disabled : In this mode, there is no batching of recipes, and the game functions as it normally would.
- Limited : This mode allows for limited batching. Your survivors will batch up to 3 meals or basic resources; 2 Electronics, CPU Cores, or Power cells; 1 clothing item, weapon or tool.
- Full : This mode enables the max batching quotas.

@Jaggid: Awesome, thank you! Also explains why it's there, not just what it does.

Big fan of your mods too, by the way.

@JuggernautOfWar, read back through these commetns one more page. It's explained there.

What is the difference between "Limited" and "Full" in the mod options menu?

It's automatic, @Dauxy. If you have the mod installed and set to do batch crafting, then all recipes you cook will be batches as specified by the mod.

one question about this mod: if you were to craft, for example, a batch of five veggie soups does it now take the same amount of time as normally cooking one veggie soup? or does it take the same amount of time as five soups but spare you the running back and forth?

I dont have any options for batch crafting of items either :bearshy:

@Гуля тащит Because it tales way longer to individually cook one veg soup five times, versus a stack of five in a shorter time.

Later on, and especially if you have more than the default amount of survivors with a mod, it becomes very difficult to keep up with cooked food needs. The mod is a godsend for that.

It's also a huge, but fair time saver for baking concrete and bricks, and smelting metal.

Honestly this is the best and most important mod in my list of ones I'm subscribed to.

Hi, I think I'm missing the point of crafting in batches. Could you please clarify what is the difference bewteen cooking 1 veg soup 5 times and 1 batch of 5 veg soups.

you sir, is a life saver.

This is awesome and a great way to make cooking more efficient. It's been one of my biggest pet peeves in the game.

I tested it a bit, its a great mod for late game but not so good for early game, batches are not giving full xp so skill progression is really slow, also since the survivors are pretty much unskilled early game they tend to fail in crafting and lose a lot of materials, maybe a way to setup lower batches like x2 early game?

Hi, Rich! It's an automatic behavior. As long as the mod is installed and enabled, survivors will craft in batches of 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 times the recipe.
Rich Jul 18, 2023 @ 7:44am 
how do you make this work? I dont have any options for batch crafting of items.

Nice. Another QOL mod.
