More Plants

Postby OvShit » Mon Jul 12, 2010 12:05 pm

Well, let`s count a bit.
Blueberries, chantrelles, spindly taproot, nettle, rastroot, WWW, clover, inkweed. 7 wild-growing plants for all that forests.
I`ve searched through the Internet and found out few herbs that would be right in setting.

1)Starflower(Borage) - smells like a cucumber, on collection it grants few leaves. These can be used in cooking, granting maybe more hunger fill, and as a healing extract (heals 2HHP per sip, quality doesn`t matter).

2)Plantago - on collection it grants few leaves, and then one can attach it to any free slot in an inventory. They`ll work like leeches, but they don`t drain SHP and heal a little bit more HHP. They also can be used in cooking(Garden Greens).

3)Cranberry - spawns only on swamps(leech-free ones), gives 3-7 berries per one plant. One can make a extract with it. Extract works like tea, granting stamina, but it gives no LP-buff. An alternative for noobs.

Feel free to add your wild herbs.

Aloe - Can be used to make an extract that soothes, and negates a small amount of damage

Pineapple - Grows one to a bush, and gives the player a then-inedible fruit. A sharp item has to be used on it to give a number of pineapple slices directly related to quality, and a pineapple top, which can be used to grow more pineapples. Each slice grants a small amount of hunger, and a random FEP. The slices are better used in baking cakes.

Well, random FEP makes no sense, although the idea of bushes is good.
Just imagine some plants that are smaller than trees but bigger than crops - bushes, in other words. They take 3 days IRL to grow completely, and one can collect 3-4 branches and berries per bush. As in treegrowing, herbalist table is required for sprouting.

The bushes sound reasonable, but all the 'new plants' - no.

If the devs add a new way to heal HHP, they will add it. They probably already have some idea about it considering all the threads about it.
