Upload your inventory JSON and get recipe recommendations based on available ingredients or based on all ingredients available in game
This is an ongoing project. Following are the concept, core features, and plans.
Core Features
- JSON Inventory Upload: Players export their inventory from Project Gorgon and upload the JSON file
- CDN-based Ingredient Parsing: Extracts cooking materials from inventory, categorizing by meat/fish/vegetarian based on open PG cdn data
- Recipe Matching: Suggests recipes based on available ingredients with skill/gourmand level filtering
- Missing Ingredient Analysis: Shows recipes you’re close to making (missing 1-2 ingredients)
Advanced Filtering System – implemented
- Cooking Skill Level Range: Filter recipes by required cooking skill (1-100)
- Gourmand Level Range: Optional filter for gourmand XP progression
- Meal Categories: Meal vs. snack vs. instant-snack
- Gourmand Progression: Show only recipes for food that have not been eaten yet, based on imported PG gourmand report. NOTE: Export the report from skills & abilities, reports – ‘See foods eaten’. This list can be saved as report (VIP) and found in reports folder (settings/VIP/button under reports opens that directory). Activate book exports in settings/VIP (books or reports will then have a ‘save’ button).
- Compact List vs. Details: Toggle between showing detailed information & ingredients versus just recipe names, to simplify copy/paste to game chat
- Preparation Skills: Select Cooking, Cheese, Sushi, Ice Cream or Mycology recipes to be included
Advanced Filtering System – planned
- Dietary Preferences: Vegetarian vs. meat recipes
- Cheese Content: Toggle for recipes containing cheese
- Inventory Fit: Show only recipes possible with current ingredients vs including buyable ingredients
