Overview [ ]

The Cooking Pot is used for creating food items and dyes.

The Cooking Pot can be lit by placing a fuel source such as Thatch, Wood, Sparkpowder or AnglerGel into its inventory and activated by pressing the 'Use' key (default E or pressing and holding ). Holding the 'Use' key will open the radial menu, where the player can choose to open its inventory, light it, or destroy it.

Usage [ ]

The Cooking Pot is used to craft Food Items as well as Kibble.

During Events, the Cooking Pot can be used to craft Skins.

It is also used to create Soap and all different colors of Dyes.

After putting the necessary ingredients into the cooking pot, including fuel and a Waterskin, Water Jar or Canteen that is at least 25% full, light the fire using the button below its inventory slots. Every few seconds (or possibly every minute), the ingredients will be consumed and produce one item. Water Jars and Canteens, despite holding two and three times as much water as a waterskin, are all single use.

Fuel [ ]

The Cooking Pot can be fueled by various flammables.

Using Thatch or AnglerGel will help to avoid creating Dyes.

Recipes [ ]

See the Recipes for a list of Recipes. Alternatively, you can create your own recipes - see the Custom Consumable page for more info.

When making edibles make sure to remove any Charcoal as dyes will be produced instead. Alternatively, you may use a different fuel, such as Thatch, that does not produce any charcoal when burnt.

Notes [ ]

The upgraded version of the Cooking Pot is the Industrial Cooker.

The Cooking Pot is treated as a thatch structure and can be damaged by anything except non-explosive ranged attacks.

Painting and Color Regions [ ]

The Cooking Pot is not currently paint-able, however this object may be re-mapped to include paint regions in a future update.

For more information on Paint Regions and how to use them, please view the Dye, Paintbrush, or Spray Painter pages.
