"custom recipes" handle the architect table and such, while the regular crafting recipes handle anything done in the 3x3 grid. they're useful because they handle any recipes involving those materials in one recipe slot.
Imagine if minecolonies got an update that allows you to choose a mayor front your citizens. And in doing that makes it a stand alone village that can thrive and even add up more citizens without our input
There was another colony style mod before called Millenaire where that's basically how it worked. You donated to the town to help them build but didn't get to designate what is built or where. So it'd just build up randomly. I honestly would like to see something similar on Minecolonies like you said. That way you can just happen across towns that are building up over time. The only issue is you'd need something that can keep those chunks loaded.
hot tip for miner recipes: 2x2 isn't much, but teaching them how to make the planks, sticks, and torches they need takes a lot of pressure off the sawmill.
Ohhhh, you shuld create like a small river next to the path where the houses are. They kindda look like some Swedish streets. I think that a river and some nice decoration around can realy add to the beauty of the colony!
I love your unique style of playing this pack. I even learned some stuff about create since it's newer to me than other mods. I never knew how mine colonies worked either. Its fun to watch a different approach instead of full tech like I normally do.
I love many kinds of food. My parents aleays gave me a range of foods but i do love me some chinese foods, and Indian cuisine is so good! Still loving the episodes Sjin, nice relaxing series.
The "Custom Recipes" are for the domus ornamentum stuff. No more frantically scrolling through the architect cutter trying to find the exact one off block combination that is needed.
I'm a day late, if you can believe that. Favourite food this week is pasta alla zozzona. I thought I knew all the pastas but holy macaroni Batman, this is amazing. Also pot noodles, don't judge.
I wasn't that impressed with the colonial style at first but actually, these buildings look really good. I always feel inspired watching you play. Also, I love tacos of pretty much any kind! They're great because they're so versatile
My favorite type of food has to be Greek/Greco-American food. Follow-ups are American and Tex-Mex. I am not too much of a fan of pasta; you have to prepare it well for pasta to be edible in a dish. By the way, Pam's Chili Relleno looks appetizing.
I have my level 3 restaurant making Hydra Burgers I just killed a Hydra in the twilight forest with extreme looting on my weapon. and you can divide hydra chops up into hydra bits and make burgers with those. very good food with loads of saturation.
favorite foods are probably going to be Italian. I really like stuff with lots of cheeses. Are you still going to add the rivers and water ways throughout the colony or just going to stick with roads?
Lettuce wrap burgers with pimento cheese, as well as cauliflower crust pizza with wisconsin extra sharp chedder and mozzarella cheese. Also well seasoned steak
Mexican food and Breakfast food in the Mexican or American varieties are my top, I could only eat from them and still be perfectly content... Which is almost how I eat IRL all the time.
To automate charcoal u need a stone smelter therefore I would suggest that u choose logs instead since u can get logs by hiring a forester just for that purpose... Restaurant Level 3 will give u access to hiring an assistant cook who can craft the Chilly Relleno for colonists... 21:39 Do not overlap the buildings since they might bug out in the later levels... 24:35 U might wanna do the first research of combat so that none of ur guards sleep on duty... I am proud to be an Indian/Bharateeya. Therefore I love Indian food... We have diversity for days...
If you have the Botany-Pots-Ore-Planting mod, you can 'grow' Coal. Easier than burning logs all the time, that is if you are willing to 'cheat' a little. (I grew all my raw ores this way, because my miner kept dying on me. Got a mineshift and lake/river under my Miner's building.) "Custom" is for the special Minecolony building blocks, such as the Framed Spruce Logs, Roof, etc. [1.Main material /2.Support material /3.Covering material ]
I love Mexican... and Italian... and Chinese.. and Japanese... and Hawaiian... and Thai... and honestly most types of cuisine, but southern comfort is best!
I love Grilled Cheese and Childrens Cereal. I know its weird... Im far older than I should be for that to be my answer but there it is. I will never give up my Lucky charms or my bacon and swiss grilled cheese. Fight me.
I hope you upgrade tavern to max level (level 3) ASAP. I upgraded mine way too late, then realize that higher level tavern will spawn better stat colonies (diamond boot).
Sjin... Mexican is the legendero of the food cuisine world!!! Also you have got to build a wireless terminal for you system, save you travelling to and from the PC 🩵
