This mod provides some simple tweaks for cooking stations.
You can set the following:
-
[]PreventBurning (default true)
[
]AutoPop (default true)[]SlotMultiplier (default 2. 5)
[]CookTimeMultiplier (default 1)
Slot multiplier rounds to the nearest integer. 2. 5 means the ordinary cooking station will have 5 slots instead of 2 and the oven will have 10 slots instead of 4.
Slots are added between exisiting slots.
Adding slots doesn't change the cooking station model.
