Food preservation/ru

Начиная с версии 1.10 еда имеет свойство портится. Вот несколько способов, как увеличить срок хранения припасов.

Подвалы

Любое полностью закрытое пространство распознается как подвал и увеличивает срок хранения всех ваших продуктов. Чтобы максимизировать эффект

• Стройте свои стены из грунта, кирпича или камня.
• Старайтесь минимизировать количество дверей. Лучшее отказаться от них.
• Избегайте попадания солнечного света в погреб. Искусственное освещение не учитывается.
• Подвалы должны быть не больше, чем 6x6x6 блоков. Если привысить данные размеры, то помещение не будет считаться подвалом.

Once you have a cellar you can place any food either on the ground (those that are placeable) or inside containers. All of them will receive the same benefit equally. You can verify that benefit by looking at the block info HUD. It will display something in the likes of Stored food perish speed: 0.24 - which in this case means food will last about 4 times longer.

Crocks

Meals and Pickled vegetables can be stored in crocks which on its own gives a slight bonus, but when sealed with a piece of fat increases shelf life by a factor of 10! Combine the filled crock with a piece of fat inside your crafting grid to get that effect.

For convenience you can build shelves that can hold up to 8 crocks at a time.

Climate

The climate in the place you live in has an effect on the foods rate of spoilage. Hot climates greatly increase it (up to 2.5x), while very cold greatly decreases it (up to 0.1x). Only the climate at sea level is considered, so placing your food high up in the mountain will have no effect.

You can however completely negate the impact of climate by building a cellar.

Food specific bonuses

Berries

Berries can either be stored as part of a meal or by making Jam. See cooking page on how to make jam

Vegetables and Beans

Raw Carrots, Turnips, Parsnips and Cabbage can be pickled in a barrel together with saltwater which greatly improves their shelf life. Picking Onions yields in a light improvement, whereas Soybeans are best stored dry. To make salt water you'll have to acquire salt either from traders or from rare salt deposits. In desert areas one might be able to find dried up salt lakes close to the surface or you can go search from massive salt domes which are detected by the prospecting pick.

Vegetabls that you cannot pickle right or cook away is best stored raw inside a Storage vessel inside a Cellar.

Grain

Grain is best stored as it is inside a Storage Vessel inside a Cellar.

Meat

The best option for storing meat is to cure it in the barrel with salt, but also keeping it as a meal inside sealed crocks is a good option.

Effect Stacking

Food preservation benefits stack, so its best to combine as many preservation methods as possible. Example: Cooked turnips inside a sealed crock inside a fully enclosed cellar.
