UPDATES (Patreon)
Content
This was a hell of an update I wasn't planning on but decided to just break down and do so everything I'm doing now is consistent. I went in and did a lot of housekeeping on all the items below and added a couple of neat features as well.
I think I tested everything pretty thoroughly but it was a lot so if you have any problems let me know. I'm going to wait a few days for new uploads so I can address any problems that may come up.
The Patreon Downloads folder should be updated and current. Because there were so many updates, it might be a good idea to download folders instead of individual files. Some quick info on how it's all organized:
- The folders and sub-folders should match the navigation bar on my site
- I've moved all mods (anything that alters or includes any important tunings) to the Mods folder
- If you'd like a general explanation of what each folder contains, you can check the description in the heading on it's corresponding page on my site (to see what's in the Mods > Crafting & Skills folder you can read the description at the top of the Crafting & Skills page on my site)

- recipes are now 3x more expensive to craft on OTG Mill when Off The Grid (to make it more of a challenge and encourage the use of ingredients); I'll be adding some exceptions to this in the future!
Patreon Downloads Folder
- Re-organized folders; Downloads Folder should match how my site is organized
- Deleted some sub-folders to make easier to find files
- Changed any '&' symbols in folder name to a '+' (google drive doesn't recognize the & symbol and will change the name when you download the folder)
- Changed the naming on some of the folders
- Moved most of the shared files from their original folders to the new 'Mods - Shared' folder. I did this in the hopes that it makes it easier to troubleshoot issues since the core of all the tunings are in these files.
*If you're experiencing problems or LE's then I would troubleshoot the folders in 'Mods' folder first and see if this narrows down the issue before removing any other folders as these are most likely to need updates.*
Important Note on Included Translations:
I'm going to be discontinuing the inclusion of translations with my content. I've changed things so many times and there's a lot of inconsistency with the translations because of it, I think it would be better to just leave them out for now. When my content stops changing so much I will look into adding them back. Those of you who have translated my content, I wanted to thank you for all your support and let you know that if you'd like to share a link to any of your translated strings please let me know and I will include them on my site!
