NEW FEATURES

Weather System

A new datadriven weather systemm!

• Rain Collector Functionality: Now passively fills during rainstorms, no longer fills during non rain conditions.
• Weather-Driven Shark Behavior: The shark becomes more aggressive during storms, attacking the raft more frequently.

Cooking Pot

The cooking pot is a brand new utility block where you can mix ingredients to craft fully dynamic stews. Depending on what you toss in, the stew gets its own unique name, effects, and stats. For example: toss in kelp, apple, and berries and you’ll get something like a Nutritious Sweet Hearty Stew. The system includes:

• Ingredient recognition and storage
• Automatically generated stew names
• Effects applied based on the first valid ingredient type
• Tooltip previews and fallback handling for invalid combos

Simple Grill

A lightweight alternative to the cooking pot. Use the grill to cook individual ingredients like seaweed or meat into more filling meals.

Water Purifier

A new way of obatining clean drinking water is finally here. The purifier lets you turn ocean water into purified water, this replaces the rain collector in early game hydration managment.

Trophy System

You can now turn shark kills into bragging rights!

• Trophy Board: Mount shark heads to showcase your acomplishments!
• Shark Head: Can be displayed!
• Shark Repellant: Craftable utility that helps keep sharks away

New Foods

I've added several new edible items!

• Dough → Bread: a full baking chain
