feedback Give Fruit Medley A Higher Priority Than Banana Juice

[lakhnish]

A niche but useful recipe to make in the ruins is Fruit Medley with three Bananas and a stick.

But with Banana Shake, that's no longer possible since it has 1 more priority than Fruit Medley, which has priority zero.

My suggestion is that Fruit Medley should have a priority of 2 then, just so that it's still possible to make with Bananas and wouldn't interfere with any other recipes that calls for fruits.

I didn't played beta yet (I was waiting for some mods to update + later busy with other stuff), what is wrong with Banana Shake? It is even worse than Medley?

It's 8 Health, 25 Hunger and 33 Sanity. It's a really good dish. The only advantage Fruit Medley has over it is that Fruit Medley has 20 health as opposed to 8, making it a better healing food (which is sometimes necessary for the ruins).

I think giving fruit medley higher priority would be good, especially so that it stops conflicting with Fistful of Jam of all things, but I don't think adding an extra banana to get something *other* than a banana shake makes a whole lot of sense. That's just a minor concern, though.

I dont agree with this. It makes gameplay sense, since healing is important when you are in the ruins and there are bananas nearby.  However, it makes no sense to put only bananas into a crock and end up with a fruit medley. 

Now I'm not saying everything has to be realistic (looking at you fistful of jam from eggs) but if the default is much closer to reality, it doesnt make sense to me to change it for gameplay convenience.

Imagine the perspective of a newer player who doesnt use mods (Crock pot mod)... they are trying to figure out how to get a banana shake by trial and error and they use 4 bananas thinking, "surely 4 bananas will make a banana shake..." cook, cook, cook, poof! Fruit... medley?

Well I definitely agree that 20 hp is a lot more essential than 33 sanity. I would gladly make the recipe if I desperately need healing food in the ruins.
