I doubt it, even though I haven't tried bees reborn yet. It won't conflict as long as the honey and hives in that mod don't have the same names as qualityhoney and qualitybeehive. 1100Ross wouldn't make his and my mod conflict, and he even added compatibility with this mod and his StarBooze. :)

say can this conflict with Bees Reborn?

@Ditkapinya
Since this is an addon, I'd want the original Aging Alien Alcohols mod author to be okay with it first. If he doesn't want to do a compatibility patch for FU for his mod, then I most likely won't for this addon either since I'd want it to stick with the theme of the main mod. It is a really cool idea though, even though I can't use FU personally (conflicts with mods I use).

any chance of hooking the drunk effect from fu into this and the original mods alcohols?

Blackjack
That's fine by me, go ahead!

Actually, followup question. Would it be alright with you if I made an addon that adds those to the descriptions potentially? Not sure if I will or not quite yet, but figured I'd ask to see what your take on that would be.

No problem! Good luck on your notes and memorizing!

Makes sense. I'll probably start throwing together some notes of my own then. Thank you!

Blackjack
A few of them I remember, like Moonshine making you glow, Vodka giving you energy regeneration, Sake making you less affected by gravity, Chocolate Liquor giving you rage, etc. Others I don't remember the specifics of, but Mead, Oculemon Nectar, Bourbon, and Mead giving health based buffs, Avesmingo Cordial I think might give a jump boost, Rum giving you more energy, and Root Pop and Petal Nectar giving energy based boosts. I didn't list the boost it in the descriptions since I wanted it to be more of a surprise, make players drink them to see what each one specifically does. ;-)

Ah, alright. Thanks for the info! On another note, is there an easy quick guide to what benefits each of the drinks give? The Vintage versions don't seem to say the benefits on them for me, hence why I ask. If not, that's fine. I can probably unpack it and write one myself if I have to. Just thought I'd ask in case I missed a link somewhere or something. It'd also be awesome if it was changed so they did display the effects, but I don't know for sure how feasible that is or if it's another mod I have messing with it potentially.

Blackjack
I'm not exactly sure, I assume that it's double the original value. I haven't tinkered with the value myself since I used Patman's Defridgerator code for the Wine Cabinet, so it will have the same sped up timer that the Defridgerator has.

How fast does the wine cabinet make it compared to normal? Something like 2x speed? Wondering how much it actually helps and how much is placebo.

No problem. Hopefully you are able to find out what mod is causing the issue. Best course of action would probably be to make a new character for testing purposes, disable all mods (except for the Alien Alcohols mods) and re-enable mods one by one until the game produces the energyregen glitch again. Then you'll know what mod it is and contact the mod author to fix the botched energyregen patch.

thanks for trying, hopefully things are well for you.

knishle
Then my hypothesis may be correct that it's another mod you're using that's screwing up the energyregen buff. In either case, it's not something that I can fix as it wouldn't be associated with this mod.

staff doesn't work, seems like the effect does not exist

knishle
All stages of vodka do indeed give the energyregen buff. However, the status effect functions just fine for me so I'm unable to replicate this error. My only guess is there's a mod you're using that's changing the way energyregen functions, and that it was a bad patch with errors. It would be unable to read the bad patch so it would crash the game.

One way to test this theory is to use a staff with energy zone as a secondary ability. Enter /admin and then /spawnitem rarestaff until you get one with energy zone as a second ability. Then use the zone on yourself and see what it does when it tries to give you energyregen. Both the vodkas and the staff are working for me.

with a new character I still managed to reproduce the glitch with all vodka variants, and the error report is as follows:

Exception caught in client main-loop
(StatusEffectDatabaseException)
No such unique stat effect 'energyregen'

I could replicate the glitch with vintage vodka as well as a lower-quality vodka, two times. I can test this on another character as well though, and I'll give you the error report

knishle
Unfortunately, I don't know what the problem is, as I tested all stages of vodka with my characters and my game didn't crash. The JSON files for the vodkas also have no errors. It could possibly be a conflicting mod causing the crash, or an error in another mod that crashed the game and just happened to be at the same time you drank vodka. Try drinking all stages of vodka (regular, aged, fine, and vintage) with another character and see what happens. The description above tells you how to spawn them.

vodka crashes my character when I try to drink it

Ripto, villain that he is, does know his drinks. Credit where due.

I don't think I have the honey set to expire, as I have not set a "itemAgingScripts" to reference the rot.lua nor does it have a "rottingMultiplier". It's similar to how I have the final stages of the alcohols set, where they never rot. The honey still says "should stay fresh for a while" which I don't yet know how to remove, but it's probably because unlike the alcohols, the honey doesn't have any aging states and stays in the same form and the alcohols, once they turn into the final form, the "rotting" messages get removed. The honey should stay at "should stay fresh for a while" forever I'm guessing, though I prefer to remove it. I just gotta figure out how. XD

Just as a note, the honey food item itself probably shouldn't go bad; it's one of the only foods out there that doesn't ever expire.

Whatever floats your boat so don't worry about it. ;) This might be my last message for a good while because my Grandma is home now and I'll be up every night helping take care of her as she's bed-ridden. But feel free to post some more if you like if you have any more ideas to share.

I also listed out some stuff for the creation for a mega mod on shellguards server involving a good chunk of stuff already on the workshop and adding a major story overhaul as the base game one is kind of trash. The whole thing would be based around the Phoenix Protocol mod making it at least as big as shellguard. Can post it somewhere else if you want.

Some of those look like good ideas! I'll consider them for the future if I become skilled enough to handle some of the more complicated ones and/or get modders more skilled than me to help make them happen. :D

Some of these are more involved than others as I know my Phoenix Protocol suggestion would basically be a shellguard level mod and I actually talked to silver on there server and she said she might end up doing the M.M. mod on the bottom

Not on this mod but I posted a bunch of stuff in the workshop discussions if you are looking for inspiration.

Now that you mention it, I remember the defrigerator mod. The defrigerator's mechanics come to mind when I think about something that ages alcohol a little bit faster. I've never used the mod personally but I might use that as a ref once hiatus is over. Maybe a wine cabinet storage item that stores alcohol and helps it age quicker. I wouldn't be against adding a feature like that in the future especially if the main mod author isn't active anymore and if the feature would fit within the scope of the main mod as well. Just as long as I can balance it so it's not broken. Collectible honey would be a very simple update so I can probably add that in the near future. I'll probably do small updates here and there to distract myself until I can start working on my mods to a bigger extent again. The bees mod no longer works because it's a beta mod and needs updated code, but hopefully Silver manages to make it work. And thanks for the new ideas! If you have any more, share them with me. :D

I get it life happens you won't hear a complaint from me in that regard. I had not heard of the bees mod and may go look for it but basically cloning the moth trap to produce honey would be good enough for this mod. Also with aging I was not thinking anything crazy as there are a bunch of mods out there that more or less instantly rot food but I was thinking something less broken at maybe 2-3x the normal rate and only hold about a half dozen bottles per container as that would still very much be within the scope of the original mod but offer you some options to speed up the process.

Also would be nice if there were dedicated aging containers that speed up the process a bit.

Have you thought about adding a way for players to produce honey themselves? I would think just copy the Moth Trap and have it produce honey instead and just call it a beehive and change the filling to yellow rather than white when it is full. Such a think likely would not be much work at all.

To this day this addon and the original mod have been some of my favorite mods on the workshop and some of the best high value items in the game so thank you for your work on this quality mod

Smash-It Steve I think it depends on if the no rot mod only affects vanilla items or also mod items. I'd imagine that it shouldn't affect this if a no rot mod only affects vanilla food items. So most likely a mod like that won't affect this unless the coding is made to deliberately affect items in this mod.

Does this work if you have food set not to rot?

all i know about Vodka is russians drink it and highly resist the cold that make they run using only shorts at snow that is very crazy, i don't drink any of these on real life.

Oh, and to make it easier, time the download away from other subscribed items that may attempt to redownload, that way when you subscribe to this, it's the only one to download at a specific time so you know which folder that this mod is in.

ArcXenophanes I am not sure why you are having this issue. All my drink recipes show for me. Did you make sure the item downloaded when you subscribed and put it in your mod folder? It must be subscribed from the Steam app directly, not the browser Steam, in order to download. It also helps to rename the contents pak to the name of the mod you just downloaded so you know which is which. Go on Steam app, -resubscribe, and as soon as it downloads, go to workshop, contents, and into the 211820 folder and go into the new folder that just downloaded. (look at the time of download to know that it's the right one) Rename contents pak to Aging Alien ALcohol addon, and copy it to your Starbound mods, and relaunch.

I am at the kitchen station under the juice tab but I am not seeing any of the recipes for this mod. Should I be looking somewhere else?

Thunder_Jake CHOCOLATE?! https://www.redbubble.com/people/rachelfhu/works/30699165-spongebob-chocolate-mad-fish
