Purely Food

Announcements of major changes to Salem.

Purely Food

Postby JohnCarver » Fri Sep 19, 2014 11:14 pm

Greetings Pilgrims!

Update Clients Plz.

This month's patch, as you know, involves a complete rework to food, cooking, and purity. Almost every food recipe in the game has been altered and many new recipes have been added. The effect of variable food ingredients has been expanded and reworked and we think you'll like this new system.
As part of the new food system and as part of our continuing updates to 'Professions' several new skills have been added.
We've also added a number of interesting new items such as new Inspirationals, Tools, and Artifacts, and some new mechanics we hope you will appreciate.
We've also made a few balance changes by which we hope to reap many tears.


So, on to the New Purity system!:

Salemites have discovered a new Element known as Aether!
The Multiplier benefits of Purity are now directly dependent on Aether, meaning the more Aether your item has, the more Pure it is. Purity is still based on a 0% to 100% scale.
Salt 'purity' is gone from items, and Mercury, Sulphur and Lead will now be 'impurities' so that if your item is high in one of these elements, it will still be impure. In the future, we plan to implement a few systems that rely on high numbers in one or another of these impurities, but most of you will only be interested in Aether.
The nodes of the world will now only change the balance of the impurities. All forage items will be 0% pure in their native state. You will have ways of increasing them after you harvest.
Purity has been removed from Water.
Steam Distillers and Copper Pots will no longer affect the Purity of what you put into them.
Inspirationals no longer have bonuses from their purity. However, we do plan to implement some ways of improving your Inspirationals in the future.
All foods will continue to have purity. Sabres will now be affected by Purity and here is how it all works:


Field Purity

Fields now have purity on them which will be displayed below the Influence bars.

Purity of your Crop output will be influenced by the purity of both the Seeds you plant and the Field itself as well as a random up or down event. Field purity will not go down, only up, though the random event will cause the harvest itself to vary up or down. Harvests will also be lower purity when using seeds of lower purity than the field.

The Higher the Aether value of the field and seed combination, the greater chance you will have of your random event lowering the purity of your harvest, making it easy to raise purity in the beginning and more difficult as you improve.

Harvests are influenced towards the lower Aether values, meaning that if someone gifts you high purity seeds, the resulting harvest will be very low purity if the field itself is still of low purity. Furthermore, fields purity increase per harvest is capped to prohibit huge purity jumps caused by plantings of high purity seeds. You must develop your purity yourself.


Gardening Purity

You may now right click on an empty or growing pot to see it's purity. YES!

The purity of your Garden Harvest is a mixture of the Pot, Humus, and Original Plant.

As with fields, the purity jump per planting in a pot is capped so you will get limited benefit from trying to plant high purity plants rather than increasing purity on your own. And as with fields, your pot purity cannot go down once it goes up.

Humus purity is now determined entirely by the average of your Pythons and Worms in each bin. They will still spawn at 0% in your bins, so check them often. Feeding a Python purity plants from your fields will increase its purity, which will in turn increase your humus purity.

Humus bins have been increased to 7x5 to help accommodate your purity pythons.


Fish & Shellfish Purity

Fish Traps now have purity which can be viewed beneath their inventory space.

Purity of Fish Traps doesn't change, but is dependent on the purity of the new Fiber Netting item which is made from fibers including Cotton Puffs.

Fish Traps can now also catch various Shellfish in addition to Fish. Their purity will match the purity of the Fish Trap.



Domestic Turkey Purity

Turkey Coops now have a Purity which is displayed below their Inventory.

The purity of the Turkey Egg will now be a combination of the Turkey Coop, the Hen and the Gobbler.

Each time a Poult of higher purity than the coop is raised in the coop, the purity of the coop will rise slightly. As with other structures, the coop cannot drop in Purity and will greatly lower the purity of its produce if you try to place high purity turkeys in a low purity coop.


Meat Purity

The Purity of Meat harvested in the wild is now entirely determined by the Butcher Knife used while butchering.

New items Knife Hilt and Knife Blade can be combined to produce a Butcher Knife.

This is where Metal Purity begins to have an effect. Purity of the knife is determined by the purity of the Blade which is determined by the purity of the Bar used to make it.

A Butcher Knife is subject to wear, so simply buying one will only help you so much. When the knife wears out, it will return the Hilt, which can then be attached to a new blade.


Insect Purity

Players may pick up a Snail, Grub, Beetle, or the new Caterpillar, and right click them on a plant. The bug will obtain the purity of the Plant eaten instantly.


Iron Purity

All mine nodes are now 0% when prospecting and must be improved by the player, meaning that any Iron Mine node is now just as good as any other node.

The purity of Ore Boulders is now calculated based on the distance from your entrance, so the further your mine, the better your Ore purity will be.

There is a random +/-event for each boulder, so you can get lucky and find good ore fairly early. The random event is influenced in your favor based on the amount of Civilian + Mining you have in your outfit.

Sword Blades now have Purity which will be directly applied to the Sabre. Sabres will have a small Damage bonus determined by their Aether value.


Food Group Purity

Purity of a Food Group Recipe will now only take into consideration the Primary ingredients in that food group. For example, a recipe in the Berry Food Group will only look at the berries when calculating purity, and ignore any other ingredients, whatever their purity. So, a Wildberry Pie will take into consideration the purity of its Berries, but ignore the purity of the flour used to make the dough.


Other Purity

"What of our Copper Mines and Trees that don't produce nuts or fruit?" you ask. They have no use as of right now. However, we do plan to expand the Purity system beyond Food and Sabres in the future so these things are not necessarily useless.



Proficiencies have changed in identity
Frontier & Wilderness is now Flora & Fauna
Hunting & Gathering is now Hunting & Hideworking
Pots & Pans is now Herbs & Sprouts


FOOD!

Players will now receive a Gluttony Bonus of an additional Humor point when stringing a session beyond 10 Points, and TWO additional Humor Points after achieving more than 20 points in one session.

In addition to this players will also receive a ‘score’ in their full and fed up debuff while they gluttony. A player may “Share his Dining Experience” with the new Chef in town to register himself as one of Salem’s top chefs, for both prestige and a reward.

You will now gain a point in the lowest of humors if more than one humor bar fills and triggers a point gain.

You may now Slice your Pies and eat them too.

Your Food menu has been divided into Food Groups. All the recipes in a particular group in the menu belong to that group and that group alone when it comes to Gluttony. This should go a long way towards helping you plan a Gluttony Session.

Each group now has 'newbie', 'intermediate', and 'advanced' foods along with one food for each food group that will allow you to Restore that group back to 100% for a cost of Silver ingredient.
