Frying pan

Postby SekoETC » Thu Jul 08, 2010 1:59 pm

I think I may have suggested this earlier, or at least considered suggesting it, but maybe it was the latter. Sometimes when you're sailing, you might decide you want to make pancakes or scrambled eggs, only to notice that you don't have a cooking stone and never thought about lugging stone along, since it's such a cheap and common resource. But people often have iron because it has many uses and is used as a global currency. So why not allow people to make a frying pan out of iron? It would effectively be the same tool as the cooking stone, only more advanced. At least two of my sailors have been in a situation of thinking "I want pancakes! No wait, I can't. Damn."

I like it. It would be nice if you could make popcorn with it as well.

Interesting idea. I'd prefer to see something like a wok instead.

I'm not too eager to add new cooking equipment while the whole system is still a mess, but adding the frying pan as a seperate tool would at least only require 12 new projects. If we're okay with the frying pan being just a fancy cooking stone (that is, having the exact same properties and limitations when it comes to projects) it could be implemented in a few minutes though.

Do 50g of wood, 100g of iron and a peen hammer sound good?

Does attacking with a frying pan can be added? Attack force like a waster perhaps?

I support adding it as a fancy cooking stone. Peen hammer means you can't make it completely at whim while sailing unless you had one already but I suppose that's alright.

If it gets an attack value, I think it should do more damage than a waster because it's made of iron.

I think we can probably drop the peen hammer. A frying pan is no more advanced than a trowel and those don't need any tools either.

An attack value between 5 and 10 sounds alright.

Now all those wives with husbands who stay out too late have another option besides the doughroller. :)
