📋 About This Mod
small additions for Campfire
I started a survival playthrough in the middle of the frozen nowhere and was annoyed by the fact that I needed to find pelts before I could even sleep, so I threw this together. This will add the ability to craft a leaf pile to sleep on, and a shelter made of branches. The shelter is just a primitive structure to keep the rain off, with a place to sleep underneath - it won't keep you as warm as an actual tent, but can keep you from freezing to death quite as fast.
Update 1. 3 adds an elevated shelter and a yurt to the survival crafting menu.
I also added a recipe for a storage cart to the forge crafting menu. I use Tentapalooza (which has portable containers) but it bugged me that you can put 500 pounds of gear in a bag and then pick it up and it weighs basically nothing, so I made a container that looks like a cart with a chest in it. It's just a static model - the cart doesn't move - but now I can at least pretend that it makes sense.
And I added a couple recipes to the survival menu:
- Campfire's cooking pot can now also be crafted from the cast iron pots and kettles you find lying around, because I
should be able to cook if I found a pot.
- Lockpicks can be crafted from the embalming picks you find in crypts, because I play with a mod that removes most
lockpicks from loot, and they kind of look like lockpicks anyway- big thank you to esmerelde for the idea!
Thank you to Chesko for all of his awesome mods, to kelretu for the shelter model, Tamira for the yurt model, elinen for the leaf pile texture and angsaar for taking better screenshots than me.
