Cooking (`rpg-cooking`)¶

Status: Working — Station right-click dispatch, timed crafting with progress bar + DataStore persistence, dedicated output slot, offline timer advancement, recipe matching, and XP all implemented.

Custom food / consumable crafting at a cooking station block. All vanilla furnace recipes are cancelled; admins define every recipe.

Config¶

plugins/rpg-cooking/config.yml:

features:
  cooking: true

# Default cook time if a recipe doesn't specify its own
default-cook-ticks: 200

Timed crafting¶

When CookTicks is greater than 0 on a recipe, clicking it starts a timed craft:

Ingredients are consumed immediately (can't be taken back).
A 9-slot progress bar fills row 0 of the GUI — lime/gray glass panes plus a clock item showing the recipe name and seconds remaining.
The ingredient slots show locked copies of what was consumed (visual only).
If the player closes the GUI mid-craft, progress and a timestamp_ms (real epoch milliseconds) are saved to the DataStore. Reopening any cooking station resumes — including offline advancement: elapsed time since closing is computed from wall-clock time, so cooking continues while the player is offline.
On completion a chime plays and the output is placed in the output slot (see layout below). The player must click it to collect. If the player closes the GUI with a finished item in the output slot, it is auto-collected to their inventory first.

CookTicks: 0 (or omitting the field) means instant — output delivered immediately on click.

GUI layout¶

Row 0: [progress bar — lime/gray panes + clock item]
Row 1: [bg] [bg] [bg] [ingredient 12] [ingredient 13] [ingredient 14] [→ arrow] [output slot] [bg]
Row 2–4: recipe tiles (27 per page)
Row 5: ← PREV | bg | bg | bg | ✖ CLOSE | bg | bg | bg | NEXT →

Output slot (slot 16): holds a gray-dye placeholder until the craft completes. Click to collect. Starting a new recipe is blocked while the output slot contains a finished item — collect it first (cook.collect-output message).
Arrow (slot 15): orange dye, decorative indicator between ingredients and output.

Station block¶

Define the cooking station as a custom block in plugins/rpg-core/blocks/:

cooking_station:
  MinecraftBlock: furnace
  Toughness: 500
  RequiredToolType: pickaxe
  Interactable: true
  StationType: cooking
  Drops:
  - vanilla:furnace 1

Players right-click the block to open the cooking GUI.

Output items¶

Outputs should be CONSUMABLE-type items that apply stat buffs or status effects. See Items (CONSUMABLE).

hearty_stew:
  MinecraftItem: mushroom_stew
  Type: CONSUMABLE
  DisplayName: "&6Hearty Stew"
  Rarity: "&a&lUNCOMMON"
