📋 About This Mod

Barrel Cooker - ESPless

Small immersion script that allows you to cook food on any barrel that contains a fire! The recipe list that is shown is the Campfire recipe list.

Usage:

  • Simply go up to a barrel that has a lit fire, and interact with it.

    Compatibility

    Should be compatible with everything!

    Built-in compatibility for Better Fire Barrels - ESPless. If a barrel is not lit that normally has a fire, then it will be lit when you interact with it! (I highly recommend that mod too)
