nicko Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 Heat up my Mugs if they are placed on my hot stove? How cool would be? maybe add a melt warning if adding the water bottles need a metal cup? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jolan Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 Cool idea, but I got to warn you the coffee will taste vile and/or boil away if you leave it too long. I would love to be able to use some of the pots on the stoves to melt snow while doing other things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L² Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 It is an intriguing idea indeed! Not sure how HintDev would implement it since it would require some kind of logic to know what kind of object is placed on the stove surface. For example, if they implement this kind of behavior, would it not also allow the same mechanic to be used to cook raw meat to a cooked state? Could large pots be introduced to allow for mass boiling things like rose hips and mushroom tea? Maybe I'm getting ahead of myself...your idea would still be a great start.

Pillock Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 Yeah, it would be tempting to mess about by putting stuff like newspaper or clothes or lighter fluid on there to see what happened. Or bullets. It might turn out to be something of a can of worms for the developers to be opening - with the current abstracted cooking it isn't an issue, and that could be seen as an advantage. But in principle, I'm all in favour of more complex systems, as long as they can maintain in-game logic/consistency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirmagnos Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 Considering extreme temperatures that such stoves can achieve, placing ceramic mug on it is a sure way to lose it as it shatters from high heat. Clothes, depending on material, will either melt or shrink and become extremely fragile, on the level that it will fall apart if player will attempt to put it on. Paper will turn brown and crumple. And i would not put ammo anywhere near that thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicko Posted April 24, 2017 Author Share Posted April 24, 2017 Ha and I just wanted a hot cup of tea or coffee. it's probably not needed, just thought one day it might be a cool addition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Docterrok Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 I really like this idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZHockeyNut Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 I like the idea, would love to see the pans or pots already on there as usable (they can withstand the heat) and it could create a way to melt some snow or heat a drink while doing other things. but should come with penalties, like leaving it too long it all boils away. go beyond the boiling point for a certain time and it starts to boil off, so you go for 1.0L of snow, take too long to come back to it and you only get .50L of non-potable water..... or, you get only .25L of drinking water.... some mechanic there of. heating a drink (only allow the teas and coffees) would become ruined beyond a certain temp (whatever ceramic can take) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirmagnos Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 Need for digging snow(10:1 ratio) and evaporation could offset ability to make larger volumes of water at once in shorter periods of time(why higher burn temperatures do not boil water faster?).
