Need help on making a Cooking System

I’m pretty new to scripting and I want to make a Cooking System. I have made the GUIs, and I need help getting started with the scripts for the system.

When you press make I want the GUI to close and open up the GUI below

The GUI will tell you what food you are making instead of “[NAME]” and there should be as many ingridients as the food you’re making needs.

The ingridients will be located in other GUI’s or proximity prompts. So when you take an ingridient the ingridient count changes.

I have looked for some solutions on the DevForum, but it wasn’t similar.

I don’t know how to create a cooking system but I noticed you wrote ingridients instead of ingredients

You would have to add a button check when the button is pressed and then open the gui, I can’t make the script currently i’m not at the computer sorry

So basically, when you press “Make”, the script will check if you press it and then open the ingredients gui?

#6

hey hjalle are you making all the script in once?

#7

You can use remote event inside of the text label that show the ingredient that you gonna cook

Hi! I don’t really know how I am going to make the script, but do I need to make a seperate script for every recipe?

#9

So I think, you will need to use module scripts, to store ingredients and recipes.

recipes = {
    ["Miso Soup"] = {
        -- some like settings parameters or etc (if you want)
        Satiety = 60; -- For example
        Ingredients = {
          "Water";
          "Dashi Granules";
          "Miso Paste";
          "Tofu";
          "Green Onions"
        }
    };

    ["Egg Rolls"] = {
        Satiety = 30; -- Again for example
        Ingredients = {
          "Ground Pork";
          "Ground Ginger";
          "Garlic Powder";
          "Cabbage";
          "Carrots";
          "Flour";
          "Water";
          "Egg Roll Wrappers"
        }
    };
}
return recipes

Just get each ingredient with current recipe, and using for index, value in ipairs loop, clone template (or what you’re using idk) change text for text label, to ingredients from list (inside your recipe list GUI).

#18

Where do I put the module script?

#19

you can put inside of the script

#20

Also, when you have all of the ingridients for the selected food, is it possible to make a proximity prompt that cooks it and then the food goes into the invetory?
