Candymakers
This is a mod for Dwarf Fortress that adds a new workshop to the game called a Confectionery where you can craft confections such as candies, chocolates, caramels, gumdrops, and marshmallows. It also adds a new type of underground plant called Cave Cocoa that you can farm and create cocoa powder out of.
Candy = dwarven syrup
Chocolate = cocoa powder + milk + dwarven sugar
Caramel = milk + dwarven sugar
Gumdrop = gelatin + any fruit + dwarven sugar
Marshmallow = gelatin + dwarven syrup
Gelatin is made at a kitchen using bones.
Consumption of any confection results in a syndrome known as "eating sweets", which induces euphoria in the creature.
Special thank you to users such as Droseran, DPh Kraken, and Putnam who essentially spoon-fed this mod’s development to me.
Known issues:
-A vanilla bug is currently preventing the Confectionery workshop from using it’s own custom building icon in the interface
-All confections are categorically treated by the game as if they were cheese, which has unnatural consequences such as them only being storable in cheese-type stockpiles to name 1 example
I am open to feature requests or changes, and please report any issues you might have.
