How the Crock Pot chooses a meal

A full pot can match more than one recipe. The matching dishes with the highest priority remain; when several share that priority, their weights determine the chance of each result. A useful ingredient is not automatically a safe filler for every recipe.

Plan your crafting before you gather

Start with the edition you are playing. Check the recipe’s ingredients, crafting requirement and output before counting materials. Some recipes make several items in one batch; requesting one more item can require another complete batch.

Plan, share and save your Insight build

Choose your survivor and set your earned experience. The point budget follows the experience thresholds. Select a skill to read its description, then learn it when its requirements are met. Removing a prerequisite also removes selections that depend on it.

Choose food with your sanity in mind

Read health, hunger and sanity together. A meal can restore one meter while costing another. In the food catalogue, sort by sanity and compare the actual values before spending rare ingredients. Keep the edition selector on the game you are playing.

Prepare food, fuel and clothing for the journey

Use the edition-specific tools before a long trip. Food freshness, available fuel and body temperature are separate problems, so a good answer for one does not solve the others. Compare the same units and choose the conditions you expect, rather than treating every duration as a promise in all weather.
