Tannery

The tanner NPC (blip Tanner) crafts goods from hides, tusks, antlers and feathers. Talk to him to open the Tannery tab: pick a recipe, choose how many (1–maxBatch) and press Craft. The materials are taken and the craft waits in a queue (saved in the database). Come back and press Collect at the tanner.

#Sewing

Every craft starts with sewing. The hide lies on the bench with the outline of the item chalked on it (jacket, hat, rug, plaque, necklace…). Hold the mouse and lead the needle from hole to hole. Pulling too fast tangles the thread and undoes a stitch; leaving the line makes a crooked stitch.

• A good seam shortens the crafting time, up to maxTimeCut % for a flawless one.
• A perfect seam (perfectScore+) has a bonusChance % chance of one extra piece.
• A bad seam never wastes materials.

#Recipes

Crafted goods are sold to the hunter NPC. Carrying a Hunter's Jacket makes animals notice you later (jacketFleeMult). Each collected craft gives XP and counts towards the crafted_total stat.

#Work table

A sewing table stands next to the tanner: a worn wooden table with a sewing machine, fabric, folded clothes, scissors, a pattern sheet and a lamp. It appears and disappears together with the tanner and is local to every player. If you move the tanner, the table moves with him.

Admins set it up in game:

Both are saved in the database like NPC positions, no config edit needed. The defaults (and the props on the table) are in Config.Locations.TannerNPC.workTable:

workTable = {
    enabled = true,
    models  = { 'prop_rub_table_01' },
    offset  = { x = 0.03, y = 0.73, z = 0.366 }, -- metres from the tanner: x right, y forward, z up
    heading = 183.6,                             -- relative to the tanner
    props = {                                    -- table space: x right, y forward, z above the top
        { models = { 'prop_sewing_machine' }, x = 0.098, y = 0.09, z = 0.134, rx = 0.0, ry = 0.0, rz = 0.0 },
        -- ...
    },
},

#Configuration

config/config_tannery.lua (live in Admin → Butcher & grill → Tannery). The NPC position is Config.Locations.TannerNPC and can be moved in Admin → General → NPC positions.

Config.Tannery = {
    enable         = true,
    maxQueue       = 5,    -- crafts waiting per player
    maxBatch       = 5,    -- crafts started with one click
    jacketFleeMult = 0.85, -- x flee distance while carrying the jacket
    sewing = {
        enable       = true,
        timeLimit    = 40, -- seconds for the seam
        maxTimeCut   = 40, -- % shorter crafting time with a flawless seam
        perfectScore = 90,
        bonusChance  = 35, -- % chance of +1 piece on a perfect seam
    },
    recipes = {
        {
            id = 'jacket', pattern = 'jacket', label = "Hunter's Jacket", result = 'hunting_jacket', amount = 1,
            time = 300, minLevel = 3, xp = 50, sellPrice = 650,
            ingredients = {
                { item = 'hunting_leather_deer_good',   amount = 3 },
                { item = 'hunting_leather_rabbit_good', amount = 2 },
            },
        },
        -- ...
    },
}
