Mod Request: Walk-In Freezer/Fridge #680

Open Gantros opened 3 years ago

Gantros commented 3 years ago

Had an idea to have Robin build a walk-in in that 2x1 space in the NW corner of the Kitchen. Once built, a pair of doors appears and can be entered like a shed, where a small space is available to place mini fridges as well as decorations if one so chooses.

I think this is a good idea so im pretty sure we need TMX Toolkit for this and mabye cp

Both Content Patcher and TMXL support custom locations, so there's no need to use both. See custom locations in the Content Patcher docs for more info.

Thinking of taking this project on. Itching for any specific details or vibes?

I figure it is the size of the vanilla farm cave. Furthermore, I had been debating on whether or not there would be built in storage, but in the interest of customization, either built in or as a companion mod, a set of additional themed storage chests for visual organization or decoration. As for the types of chests: Forage baskets: a woven basket ideal for storing picked mushrooms, berries, or other wild edibles. Can select which produce appears to stick out of the basket (Mushrooms, multicolored berries, or seasonal forage, so 6 options). Freezer Chest (w/ fish!): a 2x1 chest with a pile of fish that appears when opened. Produce Crate: Ideal for storing crops. Can set what seasonal crops appear to stick out of the crate. Bushel Basket: For storing tree-based produce. Can select display of seasonal fruits plus Ginger Island.

Awesome ideas! How much inventory space should each container hold? Should flowers be considered for their own container (like a vase with a pretty seasonal floral arrangement)? Just workshopping some of these concepts. I would also like a quick blurb on what the interior should generally look like :) If there is a freezer chest in this "fridge" room, the case can be made for more of a walk-in pantry vibe that has a more flexible design (maybe you can even use wallpaper and flooring in there :0). Though, this would make the design less unified and feel too far from the original prompt, and kind of make the custom containers not work as well in a new superfluous non-refrigerated room.

I keep picturing the walk-in fridge from Ratatouille when I think of the room. Maybe it would have a large immovable Freezer Chest in the back. I figure by default the Freezer Chest would have at least twice as much space as the standard fridge, but would be enabled by the Expanded Storage mod and the Generic Mod Config Menu mod for customization. As for the other containers, I think being equivalent to a standard chest would be sufficient if one were to use a single chest for a specific season with their corresponding visual. As for how to switch visuals, I draw inspiration from the Customize Exterior mod, which allows one to swap building reskins in-game by double right-clicking on a building and selecting from installed reskin files. I like the idea for a flower vase for pure decorative purposes, but perhaps some sort of large basin to hold flowers would be more appropriate, with different 'lids' of flowers to represent their respective seasons? On the topic of storage, I've wanted someone to include the Chest designs found in the various mines to be craftable, like the red with gold trim chest found in the mines and Skull Cavern, or the Dwarvish Chest found in the Volcano. There are tons of Chest ideas I have so one could organize without signs and know where everything is at a glance without remembering color coding. Would pair nicely with other mods like Automate, as well. Finally, on the walls and floor of the fridge, I think they should be able to be wallpaper and flooring compatible, but by default it would look like a modern walk-in, with diamond pattern metal flooring and sheet metal walls.

Hey @Gantros would it be possible to hop on to the SV discord server? The person who showed me your suggestion is over there and I like having both of your inputs but hate trying to hop back and forth trying to synthesize this cool mod idea. I can pull them over here if that would make it easier. I want to hash out all the little details and get this show really on the road. :)
