Allow making sushi on ships

I think it's a bit of an artificial limitation that you must have a kitchen table to make sushi, and then you also need the makisu for it which is a specialized tool not needed on anything else, and a wooden bowl which is not that common either. My suggestion is turning makisu into a portable machine and allow making sushi anywhere (as long as you have the makisu and the other tools). It would make sense to make food out of raw fish on a ship where you can't have an oven to cook it but right now you can't because of the artificial limit of needing a kitchen table, which can't be built on ships. Either that or allow kitchen tables to be built in cabins.

I'm for both...removing table from project and making the tool portable, but also making tables buildable in cabins.

Honestly I considered it an artificial limitation you have to prepare fish at all.

A freshly catched fish one can just bite bit by bit off. In RL it doesn't fit our cultural tradition or western fastidious palate. But as long the fish is really fresh its just healthy food. All other ways to prepare fish are just to make it more durable.

In japan a fish without rice is called sashimi, basically its just a cut fished. (and with a little less need for decor you can use your teeth as well to "cut" it.)

I think it is.

The problem with Cantr is that foods don't spoil, they just lose weight if you leave them on the ground so you can't define if a fish is fresh, it just lasts forever. I think the world would get more interesting if preserving was actually necessary but that would require a whole nother topic.

The makisu now works as a portable machine. Kitchen tables remain buildable in buildings only for technical reasons. Moving this to implemented.

Please report any bugs concerning this change you might encounter.
