What does it do?
---
- Wipes your crafting list clean of vanilla crafting items.
- Adds buyable/lootable books to learn how to craft them.
- Once the book is read, you can click on it to toggle the listing of the item on your smithing list.
- Your smithing perks will be untouched. But to craft, say an ebony bow, you now need the ebony perk plus the recipe for the bow. (recipes are not yet individualized, but it's on the todo list).
How books work:
------
Once read and learned, they won't open normally anymore. When you
activate them, they will toggle the book's recipes on/off at the forge. When you want to read/pick them up, just press and hold your activation key and it opens. You still can read them normally from your inventory as well.
So, you can go to a smith, buy a book of vanilla glass smithing, read, learn how to make glass stuff. When you're done crafting vanilla glass stuff, you click your book on your bookshelf to toggle those recipes off from your crafting list. When you want to craft them again, just toggle them on. As more items use this, the better it gets.
Why use a system like this?
--
- Unclutters crafting lists from vanilla (so far) items
- Gives you choice in what you want to craft and what you don't
- Makes items easy to find on the list
- Increases immersion/ fun/ speed in finding stuff
- Adds a bit of rewarding challenge in acquiring your craftable stuff (for new chars)
