Oven Fuel Exploit

Postby Neonin » Sat May 19, 2018 8:18 pm

The calculation for the quality of a final baked good can be exploited to use high quality fuel while only supplying one high quality branch. Tested multiple times and works every time. Process:

- Fuel oven with any three branches (tested with Q33).
- Place goods in oven and light (tested with Q128 pumpkin pie).
- Wait for fuel to run out (80% cooked).
- Add one more high quality branch (tested with Q162-ish).
- Light oven again.

Using this process the quality calculation only takes into account the last branch and comes out at Q125 with my skills and equipment. If four Q33 branches are used, pie ends up as Q92. If three Q33 and one Q162 are used and oven burns until pies are cooked, pie is Q92.

Not sure if this can be modified to check Q of fuel used during entire baking process or if something needs to be modified so part-baking isn't possible. Or working as intended, I'm still trying to git-gud. :P

Used to be you only needed to use one fuel to bake/burn everything.

Ovens should be turned to work like the fire pit: you heat it up, then you bake.
Color of smoke could be an indicator of state of the goods inside, so you don't have to look inside that often.

Agreed, great idea.

Or some sort of mini-game other than "set the timer, wait."

I agree that the exploit should be fixed at least.
It is way too easy to bake hq goods or smelt hq metal currently.
HQ goods should be valuable, with these fuel costs they are too easy to make.

Yeah, known. Will be fixed at one point or another.
