Coffee

This is an adaptation of Arathok's Coffee mod, version 1.05.

Taking a few sips of coffee will give you a skill learning buf which stacks with rest experience. You get up to a 100 percent increase after taking 5 sips (20 for each sip). It doesn't matter if the coffee is hot or cold. When used in conjunction with sleep experience, it gives up to quadrupled skill gain.

You can grow coffee in a special planter; watering the planter will help the plants grow. When ripe, you can pick the beans and grind them up. You then mix the grounds with a little water and brew them in the boiler of a still.

When you harvest the beans from a plant, the plant is destroyed, so one of your harvested beans will normally be used to replant.

You can see how much time is left on your caffeine bonus by displaying the Spell Effects window from the Hud Settings menu. The effect is paused while your character is logged off.

Changes to this customized version from the original Arathok mod:

Version 1.05a

Large nails required to construct a planter changed from 17 to 4.
Planters are now loadable into a large cart and other vehicles.
Planters can now be created by one person and used by others. Previously, only the creator could plant, water, and harvest.
The option of harvesting a coffee plant is only available now when the beans are ripe. This prevents accidentally harvesting the plant before beans can be obtained.
~~The skill buf has been extended from 5 minutes to 10 minutes.~~ – This behavior changed in 1.05b.
The harvesting process has been changed to increase your yield. You are now guaranteed at least 2 coffee beans per harvest, and one additional bean for every 20 farming skill points. You will no longer pick unusable coffee beans.
Fixed a bug that would not accept configured watering interval.

Version 1.05b

You can now configure the maximum length of time for the coffee effect.
The effect time is scaled by the quality of coffee.
The configuration for the watering interval was changed to minutes instead of milliseconds.
After taking 5 sips of coffee to increase your caffeine power to 100, you will not drink any more coffee. You'd just get a case of the jitters anyway.
The name of the spell effect displayed in the Spell Effects window is now simply "Caffeinated".

Version 1.05c

Removed the Cherrywood label from the beans and coffee.
Removed the requirement that you be holding the coffee to take a sip. Now you can share your cup with your friends!
Lowered the bean milling skill needed to 10.
Changed some of the skill gains to make more sense: now milling beans gives you milling skill and making coffee mixture gives you beverage skill, instead of both giving farming skill.

Version 1.05d

When you attempt to water but the plant is not yet ready, you will see the following messages, depending on how much time remains before it can be tended: (These are relative to the configured tendingDuration.)

% Time Left	Message
70-100	The plant has been recently watered. It will not need water for quite some time.
40-69	The soil is wet. No water will be needed for a while.
10-39	The soil is damp. It does not need water right now.
<10	The soil is barely moist; it will need water before long.

Version 1.05e

Changed primary skill that determines coffee ground quality from Beverages to Milling.
