Ceremonial Tea Brewing (OpenMW)

Week Three, Endless and Change

A mod which turns kettles from Sun's Dusk, Tamriel Data, OAAB and teapots and coffee pots from Stuporstor's Tea Mod into proper tea and coffee brewing, powered by the Crafting Framework.

Sun's Dusk gives you a kettle, water, and the humble Heather and Stoneflower teas. Ceremonial Tea Brewing significantly expands onto the existing tea brewing mechanics. All thirty teas and six coffees from the Tea Mod, along with every choice of teacup you want to pour them into, courtesy of the Crafting Framework.

No longer do you have to brew by activating a teapot/coffee pot using the mwscript menu! And no more trying to remember which teas you have in your inventory. This mod allows brewing tea directly in the world and doesn't touch the original mwscript menu, since tea brewing is handled entirely through the world interactions in Sun's Dusk. If you want to brew tea using the mwscript menu at any time, you can still activate a teapot or coffee pot.

Demonstration

Walk up to any kettle, teapot or coffee pot in the world. Sun's Dusk's own teapot, the Tea Mod's teapots and coffee pots, and the various teapots from OAAB, and Tamriel Data are all recognised.

Hover over them and you will see several actions:

- Add Water (R/Spellcast stance) - pours 250 mL from water in your inventory to the kettle. Repeat several times if you wish to brew several cups of tea.

- Brew Tea (F/Weapon stance) - opens the Sun's Dusk gamepad friendly tea menu. With this Ceremonial Tea Brewing installed, you'll see a new option below the Heather and Stoneflower entries: Ceremonial Tea. Select it.

The Crafting Framework window opens under the Brew Tea profession. Browse the White Tea, Green Tea, Black Tea, Pu'erh Tea, and Herbal Tea options, then select a recipe. You can cycle through your teacups by clicking on the icon within the required materials section. Hit craft. When you drink a tea, the original teacup is returned to your inventory as in the original Tea Mod. The item IDs are also unchanged, so you can still gift them with the dialogue option in the Tea Mod. This mod simply provides an alternate crafting UI and adds a water requirement.

The "Tea Kettle" station only activates when you're standing near a teapot with at least 250 mL of water in it. The recipe count scales to however many cups you
