Forageable tea

Post by Fostik »

Make tea forageable - some small mini-bushes, which have 1-5 fresh leaves, and a chance to get tea seeds.

The mechanic of them being bushes a little dumb, since if you want them early you need to shovel it and carry it back to your base, or I guess you could just harvest and carry the leaf stockpile back with a wheelbarrow :lol: but rather than making it a new forage item, perhaps just fix the mechanics of trees/bushes n such?

Actually, there are some other herbs that are used for making tea. For instance, the fireweed was exported from Russia to the Western Europe. I went into fields and made my own last summer and it was delicious.

/\ this In fact fireweed would be more fitting to H&H world than the actual tea since it grows in Europe and is connected with slavic culture. Was used to be drunk as tea is nowadays; now replaced by tea leaves. Implementing fermented fireweed leaves infusion to the game would be cool. Alternatively berry leaves could be added (strawberry, wild strawberry, bramble, raspberrry) but I guess it would end up too complicated and useless.

1. Earlygame world = all bushes are harvested.
2. Lategame world = bushes are extremely rare, because harvested by other players.

Game will be more interesting when you have alternative ways to get same item.

would need to be able to fire a pot. and be able to make a few teas.
tree sap tea, pine need tea, dandelion tea, swamp tea, root tea, few other stuff/ ect.

it would be nice early world~ mainly to quickly boost energy.

if they did something like this. make it for noobs

Players under 100 stats take no hunger damage when drinking tea. tea regens energy.
harder to make teas could regen some hunger for people under 100 stats.

Sure, and they all get dug up in the first few weeks of a world and transplanted on someone's village where nobody else can access them.

Need to change something, IMO, since tea is so important to the game currently.

There's a LOT of plants used for making teas of various sorts, and it all depends on the locale as to what is used.
