Modding:Tailoring

← Index

This page explains how the game stores and uses tailoring recipe data. This is an advanced guide for mod developers.

Overview

Tailoring recipes are recipes that can be made in the tailoring menu, which can be opened by interacting with the Sewing Machine either at Emily's house or once the player obtains it.

Tailoring recipe data is stored in the Data/TailoringRecipes asset.

Data format

The Data/TailoringRecipes asset consists of a string → model lookup, where...

• The key is a unique string ID for the tailoring recipe.
• The value is a model with the fields listed below.

field	effect
FirstItemTags	A list of context tags for items that can be accepted by the cloth slot on the left-hand side of the tailoring menu for this recipe. Typically includes the item_cloth context tag.
SecondItemTags	A list of context tags for items that can be accepted by the thread slot on the right-hand side of the tailoring menu for this recipe. If a specific item is needed, the item's automatically generated context tag should be used, for example item_magic_rock_candy.
SpendRightItem	Whether to consume the item in the thread slot on the right-hand side of the tailoring menu when crafting the item.
CraftedItemId	The qualified item ID of the crafted item.
CraftedItemIds	(Optional) A list of qualified item IDs of possible crafted item outputs. For example,
CraftedItemIdFeminine	(Optional) The qualified item ID of the crafted item output. Default null.

Examples

You can add or replace tailoring recipes. For example, this content pack adds a recipe to tailor a rain coat using cloth and a pufferchick:

{
    "Format": "2.8.0",
    "Changes": [
        {
            "Action": "EditData",
            "Target": "Data/TailoringRecipes",
            "Entries": {
                "ExampleAuthor.ModId_RainCoatFromPufferchick": {
                    "Id": "ExampleAuthor.ModId_RainCoatFromPufferchick"
                    "FirstItemTags": [ "item_cloth" ],
                    "SecondItemTags": [ "item_pufferchick" ],
                    "SpendRightItem": true,
                    "CraftedItemId": "(S)1260",
                    "CraftedItemIds": null,
                    "CraftedItemIdFeminine": null,
                }
            },
        }
    ]
}

Open the Tailoring Menu

You can place an Action Tailoring tile property on the map, which will open the tailoring menu when the player clicks it. The player must have seen event 992559 (the event of Emily visiting the farmhouse after you have gotten your first piece of cloth) for it to open.
