Twisted Thistle.jpg

We are a guild devoted to growing thistles, providing help to players new to thistles, and uniting those already familiar with them. In the current Tale our Guild Hall is located just north of River Plains Chariot Stop at (1607, 2914). If you are looking for a like minded group of people to discuss growing thistles, stop by and join us!

Current Voids

Every Egypt week, certain reactions in the garden are not possible due to weather variations. For Peret I-1 - Peret I-7 (Year 3) these are:

  • 10 Nit -> 3.3 Asc
  • 10 Fol -> 20 Pyr

Type "/info Twisted Thistle" (without the "" part) in game for additional growing tips for the current week. We try to update the list (and growing tips in /info) each time the voids change.

Growing Thistles with Veggietales

Step 1 - Get voids and be sure someone has tested them for day and night. Twisted Thistle Guild is currently the most reliable source of voids. Believe it or not, the getting of voids is the hard part LOL

Step 2 - Enter voids in VeggieTalesnew>config_thistle file. When you place a zero next to a rule it creates a void. For example a void for Nit_Asc would be adjusted to a void by changing "rule_Nit_Asc 1" to "rule_Nit_Asc 0"

Step 3 - Enter your desired thistle, written like this:

desired "label: YOURNAME"

desired A-F~P+T+ if you write it like this: //desired A-F~P+T+ it won't be searched.

Save and close.

Step 4: Open VeggieTales and run Thistle mode. This will create a series of recipes, if the voids are suitable.

Step 5: After History script finishes, open history in VeggieTalesnew folder. Scroll to the bottom and check percentages. If it is in the 85% range you probably can grow an accurate thistle, below that you may need to experiment. Try the "Best for . . ." recipe first. Copy the recipe, but not the letters saying what it will produce at the top and bottom, just the list of numbers.

Step 6: Go to luaScripts folder. Open thistle_new.lua (no zeros in name) or similar thistle.lua script

a) Change local expected_gardens to = your thistle garden number

b) Paste in recipe after: "instructions = {" It should begin something like this:

instructions = { 0,0,0,1,33, It should end something like this: 0,0,1,1,99, };

(These numbers represent the various nutrients and sunlight, the first line translates to "use 1 oxygen, 33 sun" and the last to "1 water 1 oxygen and full sun" they are just examples.)

c) Change sun to the last number on your recipe list, so for this example you scroll up to the line right above instructions: local last_sun = 33 and change it to 99 in this example. Save and close or minimize. Look at your thistle gardens, be sure they are all set to the number you just entered (33 or 99) Night growing is unaffected by these numbers so no need to change them after dark, but you will need to change the recipe. You can plant change to desired light and abort to fix them.

Step 7 - Pin all gardens, I use Veggietales arranger to set them up, directions there.

Step 8 - make sure you have water and thistle seeds

Start Veggietalesnew thistlenew script and enjoy :-)
