Cooking meat with pot

EchoMan: Changes are being made to pots in game.

- From now on, any pot can be used in any cooking project previously requiring a certain size of pot.

- From now on you can't manufacture small or big pots.

- All future cooking projects will be based on the amounts required for the big pot.

- Some time in the future all small and big pots will be converted to their regular variant. E.g. a "small stone pot" will be converted to a "stone pot".


It would be nice if the "cooking meat (dung)" using a small fire pit kept the pot reference in the fire pit drop down menu. Only because I'm used to it and there are so many ways to cook meat, I get all confused.

I've added (pot) to all firepit project names that required them. I have no idea why they were removed. I don't even know if I removed them. But I don't think so. :)

I removed the "(pot)" because it should be obvious what kind of pot is needed (any kind). Keeping it makes about as much sense as adding "(bellows)" to a steel refining project, but if you think that it improves the readability of the list we can of course keep the info.

Since not all projects in the firepit requires a pot, I think it's good for useability to easily see the requirements already in the drop down select box.

All steel refining projects require bellows.

As for the cooking: I work it out as soon as I see the 1000g meat needed etc, but it means an extra click into the menu then I need to get out (going back with the back button doesn't work) and go back into the menu and hope I pick the right one next time. I also need to cancel the project using the pot. (all five of them in my case, I'm a slow learner)

Of course if I have a pot and the meat I need to fluff around to find the one with the pot. I guess in time I will learn which is which, but in the meantime I'm just confused.
