CutTheFat_1.0.1.zip 1-click install


This mod allows you to use a knife of cleaver to cut chunks of fat into pieces of fat. The pieces can be used for most recipes, including oil lamps, sealing crocks, and oiling hides. Crafting machine parts still requires a full chunk. The pieces of fat can be placed on the ground, on tables, and on shelves.

While the pieces make crock sealing and oil lamps more resource efficient, oiling hides is about the same as larger hides require more pieces. The benefit to oiling hides is that you can oil smaller batches of hides without consuming an entire chunk of fat.

Using a knife will result in 3 pieces but a cleaver will give 4.

If you could make the pieces work on the Lard recipe it would be enough to work with Culinary Artilerry/EF, since we would be able to reduce the pieces to lard and use in all other recipes. Would be a huge help :)

I tried with Culinary Artile/Expanded Foods and unfortunately it doesn't work, no recognition of the pieces as fat in the recipes there. Tho nothing wrong seems to be going on using them together.
Would be lovely if you could add some compatibility, I would make so many sausages haha.

have you considered added cut the wax too? XD

💬 Sonito, Aug 3rd at 8:16 AM

can you make the modid lettercase miniscule instead , cutthefat instead of CutTheFat , it's messing with the modloader if you try to reference it from another mod. I'll publish a version that does just that for my own use but obviously gonna delete it after

The mod do not work with the mod naturalclay the oil lamp recipe don't work with their bowl.

Unknown if it will work with culinary artillery or expanded foods. You'll have to test it yourself, but remember to do so on a world you don't mind breaking.

Is this compatable with culinary artillery and expanded foods?

💬 Breezebuilder, Jun 21st at 5:49 AM

Great simple mod. Could you also add the ability to recombine pieces into full chunks?

next stage is to add salt to make cured fat also known as Salo.
