Necessary Nirn Necessities

What does this mod do?

Improves the crafting menus in Nirn Necessities by relocating craftable items to the tanning rack and adding perk requirements for certain items. Also streamlines crafting by limiting initial creation to one color variant, with the option to craft other variants from the original.

Why create this patch?

If you, like me, find an overcrowded crafting menu frustrating, this mod helps streamline the experience by organizing items at the tanning rack and reducing menu clutter. The added perk requirements not only integrate the mod more naturally into the base game but also make progression feel more rewarding for certain items.

Each item has one base variant that can be crafted at the tanning rack or forge. Once crafted, addiitonal variants will appear that will require some basic materials to dye them different colours. This process will require one base variant item and an additional material such as a mountain flower to act as the dye. The original item will be used up and the new variant added to your inventory.

In addition to basic materials, the following perks are required for different items, based on their material and complexity. This also balances some of these items with the game's progression.

A lantern is also required to add lanterns to backpacks and these variants only appear if you have a spare lantern in your inventory.
