I was frustrated not knowing the math involved in things, since this is a business simulation after all. So this is my attempt to share what I’ve gathered and give others a chance to share as well.
Ingredient Prices
In order to make things nice for comparison, the unit of currency here is going to be 1/12th of a corpse-that’s going to be defined as a single corpse unit, Corpse Units
Only including fully upgraded amounts for now since the upgrades are relatively affordable. Amount per corpse is just 12 / CU–I can make a separate table if the math gets annoying for people.
Cost Table: Meat + Fertilizer
| Ingredient | CU Cost |
|---|---|
| Ground Meat | 4 |
| Sausage | 4 |
| Steaks | 3 |
| Fertilizer | 2.4 (Crops are 1.25 CUs at 3 per fertilizer) |
This is going to be crop cost calculated in CUs, based on Fertilizer costing 4 CUs.
If you see a decimal, 1.3, 1.6 etc. assume it’s repeating.
Cost Table: Crops
| Ingredient | CU Cost |
|---|---|
| Tomatoes | 1.25 CUs |
| Potatoes | 1.25 CUs |
| Onions | 1.25 CUs |
| Eggs | 1.25 CUs |
WTF are CUs?
1 corpse = 12 CUs
It’s a pretend unit I made up for easy comparison.
Recipe Prices
Naming convention is going to go like this:
- Burger (mince-meat)
- Sausage
- Steak
- Breaded (includes flour)
Just because the recipes aren’t named and I’ll ♥♥♥♥ up if I try to write them down by ingredients.
| Recipe Name | Price | CU Cost to make | Price per CU, (times 100, higher = more efficient) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Burger | $0.9 | 4 | 23 |
| Breaded Burger | $1.4 | 4 | 35 |
| Burger with tomato | $1.65 | 5.25 (4 + 1.25) | 31 |
| Breaded Burger with tomato | $2.15 | 5.3 (4 + 1.3) | 41 |
| Sausage | $1.15 | 4 | 29 |
| Breaded Sausage | $1.65 | 4 | 41 |
| Steak | $1.65 | 3 | 55 |
| Sausage and Steak Burger | $3.35 | 11 (4 + 4 + 3) | 30 |
| Sausage and Steak with Tomato | $3.40 | 8.3 (4 + 3 + 1.3) | 41 |
| Steak with Tomato and Potato | $2.55 | 5.6 (3 + 2.6) | 45 |
| Sausage with Tomato and Onion | $2.55 | 6.6 (4 + 2.6) | 39 |
Conclusion
That’s for you to decide! If you’ve got enough bodies then it makes sense to make the most expensive thing you can. Otherwise you can try something in the middle.
You can also just roleplay–make what you want, make a variety. It’s your game, play how you want.
Tl;Dr What should I make?
- Breaded burgers
- Breaded sausage
- Steaks
- Sausage + Steak + tomato
- Steak with Tomato and Potato
- Whatever comes after, I haven’t made it that far
Steaks should generally be your staple if you’re low on corpses since they’re cheap CU wise and you get a good return. Otherwise get your vegetables running!
The meat plate is very corpse inefficient, even though it sells for a lot. So only make it if you’ve got the corpses to spare.
Vegetables are super, super worth it.
That’s all! Post numbers in the comments if something’s wrong or I need to add it
