ENERGY BAR :

Lime < 80%
Yellow < 60%

Red < 20%
Click the bar to see your exact Energy amount in Local Chat.
Example : DFS Hud V2.3: 100% (100.00/100.00)
Every day you wear your HUD you gain 1 maximum Energy point. So after a week you might see this instead :

3. You will see a cute message in Local like –
[06:33] DFS Tomato Soup: Satisfies your hunger and warms your insides, leaving nothing but a smile on your face.
and a message from your Energy Bar stating how much Energy you have now
[06:33] DFS Hud V2.6: Energy : 204 / 313 EP
Experience Points to Energy Points Trade In –

CRAFT :
*Click ‘Craft’ to open window
*Rez the ingredients near the DFS Kitchen Equipment, Stove in this case.
You can find the recipes here : https://www.digitalfarmsystem.com/dfs-recipes/
Example : Making your first food – Tomato Soup
This is what it looks like on the Recipe web page:
[1] DFS Tomato Soup
DFS Stove
Slot – Item
2 – DFS Tomato
3 – DFS Tomato
8 – DFS Water Bucket
Time : 00:01:00:
1 Use – 25 EP/use – 1 XP
—————————-
DFS Tomato Soup – Recipe name
DFS Stove – Kitchen Equipment needed
Slot – Item – Slot = number on the grid, item = ingredient
2 – DFS Tomato – LOAD a tomato in #2 button
3 – DFS Tomato – LOAD a tomato in #3 button
8 – DFS Water Bucket – LOAD a water bucket in #8 button
Time : 00:00:30: – Cooking time : hours/minutes/seconds
1 Use – 25 EP/use – 1 XP – 1 use of 25 Energy when eaten /
1 Cooking point gained when made
1. Click #2 – It should turn RED, indicating it’s ready for the ingredient.
2. Click a rezzed Tomato (You may need to click a Tomato Basket first, to get this item)
3. Wait for a menu to pop up in the top right corner of your screen.
4. Click the ‘Cook’ button. You should now see a tomato icon on the HUD, indicating it has been loaded successfully :
Repeat this process for each ingredient until your HUD looks like this:
5. Click the Stove and watch Local chat for a confirmation message
[05:54] DFS Hud V2.3: Cooking/Crafting started with DFS Stove.
[05:54] DFS Hud V2.3: Making: DFS Tomato Soup.
6. The stove will then have hovertext counting down the cooking time. When it’s ready, it will alert you by text and a ‘DING!’ sound, so it’s a good idea to make sure that volume is turned up.
7. You have the same amount of time it took to cook, after it’s ready – to click and receive your food.
Example : Tomato soup took 30 seconds to cook. After it cooks, you have 30 seconds to click the Stove and take it – If you miss, it will BURN! And you will get
an ‘Oopsie’ item. These are only 1 Energy point!
Wine & beer typically take a week to ferment – so you have a week to take them!
If you accidentally add the wrong ingredient we have a tool to rescue the recipe!
1. Click the wrong item button on your HUD, it should turn RED, then Click your DFS Trashcan. It will send a pop up asking you : “Are you sure you want to trash the selected item?”
2. Click Trash, and it will clear the button so you can then load the correct ingredient.
You will lose that ingredient but save the rest previously loaded in, which is especially useful if it’s a large recipe!
