Description
Adds a bag that keeps your food so fresh and so cool.

Hey ya! Hey ya!
You've seen the Cooler bag and felt a deep treason in your fragile heart, realising you were not able to store fresh food in it..
You've come to the right place.

How to keep your food cool ?
  • Gather a garbage bag some duct tape and water.
  • Right click on any of those items and select Make Water Pocket.
  • Put the pocket in the freezer.
  • Wait for 12 hours (It's the 90's guys). It turns into an Ice Pocket.
  • Put the Ice Pocket in a cooler (change it every 24hours).
  • You can change the need for ice pockets from mod options or sandbox options.

Where is my cooling bag ?
  • The cooler is a vanilla rare item found with other camping and fishing items.
  • If you activate Eggon's Modding Utils, cooler will also appear among hunters and fishermen's loots.
  • Lunchbox now has cooling capability.

Limitations
(to be improved upon)
  • Food items put in the cooler are cooling instantly.
  • Food items removed from the cooler may retrieve ambient temperature instantly.
  • Water Pockets directly on ground do not freeze in winter (you need to put them in a container).
  • Frozen items unfreeze too fast in the cooler (they do like normal container, they should do like fridges).
  • "Sometime" pockets freeze when outside temperature is below 0 (depends on vanilla update behaviour).
  • In case of mismatch between client and server with B41 Multiplayer, Follow the steps here[theindiestone.com].
  • Some ice / water pocket state changes may not trigger at the right time. Putting the cursor on them will trigger the update.

Also
  • Can be added to / removed from existing saves.
  • Multiplayer compatible.

You are a modder and want to add the cooling capability to your fancy bag or furniture ?
Just add the following code in your lua file.
require "coolbag" Coolbag.addCoolerContainerType("MyFancyTypeName");
Note that if the capacity of the bag or furniture is between 10 and 20kg, you will need 2 Ice Pockets (one pocket per 10kg, ceiling).

I plan to keep the original functionality and immersive feel intact because that’s what really makes it special.

Hey! I really like your mod, and I was wondering if I could update it for Build 42, make a few modifications to suit my own vision, and possibly upload and share it with others. Of course, I'll fully credit you as the original creator. Let me know if you're okay with that! :)

Hi! Can I get your permission?
I will rewrite part of the code of this module into the B42 version. The mod will be marked as reference to the coolbag.
