@BigGovernment
- I was debating it! Along with a light mod that adds cigarettes and other stuff :) We'll see!

Any chance for a light mod like this for a comfy glass of wine?

@GonDragon
- I love the idea of a coffee shop!! <3

Thanks for this! In my current run, I'm using VBE, that I installed mainly for the tea and coffee. I made a Bar with Hospitality + Gastronomy in the main buffet of my colony, to try make some cocktail... I liked the idea of a bar, but the bloat of alcohol is too much, and the Pawns doesn't even know how to drink (my cleansweepers are working full time cleaning puke). I'll use this one on my next run, and I'll made a coffee shop instead.

@Bianca
- Thank you so much! <3 This one is still a mod I use to this day!

Can't believe I'm only seeing this mod now - this is exactly what I wanted! Simple tea and coffee, amazing!

Sorry for my poor English
Mocha should be better than latte,but my pawns could gain 25% chemical recreation after drinking latte while Mocha can only provide 15%.Anyway,great mod!

Behind my back, my cat drunk all the latte a raider or something dropped and developed into a feline caffeine addict... THANKS A LOT!

I'm really thankful for your mods that just add a few great things without all the bloat many other mods have <3

Thank you for this mod!

Wanted to do my pawns a favour beyond lavish/gourmet meals and psychite tea but most options are so much of a hassle for their benefit (and might even have drawbacks too like vanilla beer) or things become too bloaty

@pigeonman860 - Thank you xD

This is amazing.
it also works better then VBE with medieval overhaul :P

thanks!

and, fair enough (:

@CTH2004 - Yes you'll get duplicates because they don't use the same defname. Sorry but it's unavoidable.

And I'm not listed as a contributor because I didn't mind not being one, as he edited the base I made a long time ago to fit vanilla more.

quick question:

does this work with Vanilla Brewing Expanded? Or must I pick one of them? Will it add duplicate coffees?

Thanks!

"• Why does the coffee shrub look like Oskar's? - Because I drew the base he used. :) I let him use it in his mod, but for this one, redrew it completely."

Then, why aren't you listed as a contributor? doesn't seem very fair...

Don't sweat it, I just wanted to be thorough with the case. At least, I'm glad you'll think of it at some point down the line. And we all know this time of year is busy.

@Strunbahthur - uhhhhhhh. Not something I actually thought of, but I can have a dig around when I get the time. But yes, I get it, tho you didn't really have to fight the case so much as i had simply not thought about it when I made this mod; it's an old one of mine now. :)

Nice little and comfy mod right here. Subscribed exacly because of FAQ item n°2.

I'll just make a little case for Hot Chocolate to be changed into a 'food' and not a 'drug' :
- it is made of foodstuff (milk and chocolate), so giving it a nutrition value (something extremely low obviously) would make sense
- it isn't <i>addictive</i> or unhealthy in any way, a core part of what a drug is
- its current 'drug' status conflicts with the 'no/only medical drug use' precept, which seems quite off for roleplay reasons

Those last two points could also be used for making the same case for Tea, but its relation to caffeine works against it.
Of course, there is also the matter of balance to take into consideration, but as a big fan of Hot Chocolate, seeing the mood debuf 'consumed recreational drug' for it just rubbed me the wrong way.

No worries! It's certainly not urgent, just something I noticed while fiddling with the xenotype editor. Hope you have a good weekend!

@Lira - I'm not sure about that one, but I don't have computer access all weekend so I cant check, sorry!

Is it intended that tea not satisfy the caffeine dependency gene's requirements? Also, thank you for keeping this maintained, such a comfy mod :)

@Dragonfly - Cooking Expanded, yes, as that doesn't add coffee or tea. Brewing expanded, no, though that mod has far too much content anyway.
@Mocho - Yeahhh.... Maybe one day.

I only wish this mod had an espresso machine for the aesthetic.

@Dragonfly Vanilla Cooking Expanded doesn't add Coffee or Tea. The Vanilla Brewing Expanded Coffee and Teas addon does. And I agree with Erin - the brewing expanded mods are too bloated, so this is a much better alternative.

Is this compatible with Vanilla Cooking Expanded? I'm assuming not, because it would be redundant

Erin, your workshop is amazing! So many animals, flying birds, now this instead of VEBrewing that just adds way to much to my taste. And so much already updated, ánd humorous FAQ's. Thanks for all you do!

@Jon Sneh - Fixed

Cool, thank you :)

@Jon Sneh - Neronix was a dummy and forgot chemical genes are generated automatically. I'll get an icon sorted as soon as I'm done eating. :)

Here you go https://gist.github.com/HugsLibRecordKeeper/63e8259cd78d63405cfb473e2f9f2f7b

If you don't give me any logs, I can't help you. Sorry.

I had the same experience as Jon Sneh. Ran across it in another mod too, when it started frantically yelling about methadone dependency. Definitely some weirdness with the xenotype editor going on.

Seems to be an incompatibility with Biotech's xenotype editor, there's an invisible icon breaking the UI which I found was genetic Caffeine Dependency under the drugs section. Rooted through your files and didn't see anything related to genes, but it was definitely linked to your addiction def and removing the mod fixed the issue, so that's weird.

i have to say, after looking at the vanilla brewing addition, i understand why this add is preferred. simple, yet immersive. A nice addition that i don't need to spend years in game making junk.

@X-Codes - Thank you!!! <3

"Why do this when VEBrewing exists? - Because I simply didn't enjoy the alcohol bloat in that mod, and only wished to use the tea and coffee. So, I created this small standalone with my own XML and art."

INSTANTLY Subscribed

neat mod

@Kezzan - I probably won't be making a cigarette mod. :( Not in the near future, anyways.

@Erin I love this because I felt the same about the VE brewing mod, too much alcohol options, but the only thing keeping me using that mod is the tobacco and cigarettes which give a 10% consciousness (paired with the neural supercharge its dumb op).

I know this is a big ask but is it possible that you would ever make a cigarette mod? preferably similar to the VE one? none of the current cigarette mods are like the VE one which is lightweight and doesnt feel out of place.

id love to switch out the VE mods for this because i also only downloaded them for the coffee.

You're welcome.

The mod already seemed pretty interesting, but the second i saw the name all i could think of was the "Hot Drinks" song from that wendy's training video.

So, i'm going to have that song stuck in my head for the next six hours, thanks for that.

This mod is fantastic... exactly what I was looking for

@genraldarumaka - I can probably add some compatibility at some point. :)

Great mod by the way, Simple, Non-complicated Coffee. I however wish I could use other kinds of milk for it's recipes (Say Soy Milk from PlayIgel's mod or Insect Milk from the Insectoid faction mod).

@PremierVader - I didn't nerf anything. :D

Please dont nerf the Tea....its the only thing barely keeping my colony afloat!

It's fine! I had to dig into the XML anyway so I figured why not look at values. I've tweaked some stuff, will push the update in a bit.

Hey don't sweat it. I enjoy the mod just fine for what it is, making a tea/coffee plantation is very relaxing and comfy. Except when the raiders try to burn it down I guess. Thanks for making this great mod!

I'm taking a look at the XMLs now because some descriptions were wrong, so I'll have a look at values.

@869654 - I made it so there isn't much difference; that's more just personal use. I can look at the balancing again and I appreciate the suggestions, but I won't be guaranteeing anything. :)
