Apothecary Expansion

This mod is a complete overhaul of Apothecary (Continued). It introduces a new, logical progression system, adds in-depth gameplay mechanics, and provides seamless integration with the vanilla game and Medieval Overhaul.

🎨 New Textures

• Visual Update: The mod is gradually receiving new, high-quality textures.

📈 Revamped Progression

• New Research Tree: The entire progression has been rebuilt from the ground up. The mod now features a logical and intuitive technology tree.
  
• 3-Tier Workbench System: The original Apothecary Table has been replaced with three new workbenches for each stage of the game: from neolithic to industrial.

🧼 Gameplay Mechanics

• In-depth Washing System: The old mechanic has been replaced with a new system featuring three recipes. Remove the "Tainted" status from apparel in different ways: from a risky, damaging rinse to a wash with lavender soap that provides a mood buff.
  
• New Fuel Types: Vanilla buildings (Stove, Generator, Smithy) can now run on Charcoal. The Fueled Crematorium also now accepts Wood.

🧩 Deep Integration with Medieval Overhaul

• Full Resource Unification: The mod automatically replaces its own resources (Tallow, Salt, Charcoal, Garlic) with their MO counterparts, eliminating duplicates.
  
• Customizable: The replacement of Steel with Iron Ingots is managed through the mod's settings menu.
  
• Mechanics Synergy: Producing Coal using MO's methods now yields Wood Ashes from Apothecary as a byproduct.
  
• World Integration: Plants from Apothecary now spawn in Medieval Overhaul's Dark Forest biome.
  
• Adaptive Research Tree: Technologies that duplicate MO's features (e.g., "Fat Rendering") are automatically hidden.
  
• Redundancy Removed: The Charcoal Kiln and Candles from Apothecary are disabled to avoid confusion.
