📋 About This Mod
This mod will allow you to put your settlers to work producing various chems and farm the plants needed to produce them. You can become the Commonwealth's greatest chem dealer or addict if you so choose.
This mod is a reduxed version of my old Chem Cookers mod, designed to work off of my new and more reliable Settlement Production Framework. In addition to this change the mod now also sports 3 new workstations (Stimpak, Antiseptic, Radaway) and 2 new plants (Carrot Flower, Glowing Fungus), as well as some balancing changes to the other objects. Updating from the original version to this one is not something I currently recommend or support due to the underlying structural changes I have made.
Suggestions for balance changes or feature updates are always welcome!
