Modding Help Why we learn ALL RECIPES of the Item?

    Hellow,

    I spend the entire day to improve my alchemy mod and just found out somthing rather uncool:

    We can not teach specific recipes.
    The player always learns all possible ways to craft an item.


    Thus it is impossible to have N ways for making 1 item.

    An example: On pickup of Fruit pussplum you should learn to make redflasks with emptyflask + pussplum, but then you also learn to make it with boneboo + emptyflask and all the other ways.


    Ofc there is a way around this. One could create inbetween items like "Redflask (pussplum)". But at 1 point you will have to unify the items to allow them to stack with each other. This would lead to a bigger recipe list sooner or later. and it would eventually spoil some secrets.

    I hope we will gain a way to teach specific recipes without telling the player all the secret ways there are in the known universe.

    greets
