📋 About This Mod

Rescale stat bonuses to create meaningful differentiation between the food tiers. Adding additional effects to make sence of keep Geralt well-fed all the time.

Lore friendly logic:

— Basic human norm: 3 meals per day.

— If the witcher is actively hunting/fighting during the day: +1 meal

— Accelerated metabolism for drinking potions/decoctions: +1 meal for neutralization/recovery

5 full meals means eating every 5 hours, since time in the game is accelerated 10 times, means each buff lasts (5*60/10) 30 minutes in real life.

Food of medium quality, such as fish, should be reduced to 20 minutes.

Food of lower quality, such as apples, should be reduced to 10 minutes.

Since food is used exclusively to increase vitality regeneration, it makes sense to use it on a campfire, along with a swallow for quick healing or to remove the hunger debuff, so there is no point in keeping Geralt well-fed all the time. To fix this, food now not only provides vitality regeneration, but also an increase maximum vitality and maximum stamina while the well-fed/well-hydrated effect is active.

The cost of products has also been completely revised depending on their quality. At the same time, the cost increases sharply from rarity so that when buying common ingredients, it is more profitable to craft rare dishes yourself. The rarity of dishes has been completely redesigned, and food recipes have been changed to balance cost and rarity.

Remember you can change price multiplier with addon "Lore Friendly Economy"->Category->Food that comes with W3EE Redux from x0. 01 to x5.
