Sunset Sarsaparilla Overhaul

[Stellarbone]

I have very little experience modding, adding new items using base skins is easy enough, but making new skins for items, there lies where I have to get off the ride.

I would like to see more flavours of Sunset, to show their competition with Nuka Cola. They can be rare, uncommon, heck even plentiful.

But what flavours could there be? Well, I always look to the real world brand Sioux City. They've got Prickly Pear, Root beer, birch beer (Phenomenal), ginger beer, cream soda, orange cream, and sarsaparilla. Each flavour could, like Nuka Cola, have its own unique effects, both for regular and hardcore mode.

 

If nobody wants to tackle this, I can make a poor mans attempt. I know there's interest in this, I see it regularly in comment threads on other mods for Nuka Cola, but nobodies ever tackled this one.

Simple enough. What effects do you want for each flavor?

Well, I didn't expect a rapid response, sorry for the wait. As far as stats and beyond goes, I guess it depends on how much work you feel like puttin in, but I can list what I 'envision'.

 

Sunset Prickly Pear

Pink coloured bottle, pretty much like a prickly pear.

stats-

HP +2(10seconds), -15 sleep, -20 thirst, +2 rads

 

 

Sunset Root beer

Dark brown coloured bottle, same as basic sarsaparilla

Stats-

HP +15, Sleep -10, Thirst -15, Rads +2

 

Sunset Birch Beer

reddish brown coloured bottle

Stats

HP +5, AP +10, Sleep -10, Thirst -20, Rad resist +20

 

Sunset Ginger Beer

yellow coloured bottle

Stats-

HP +25, Sleep -15, Thirst +25, Rad resist +25, +1 END 2 in game hours

 

Sunset Cream Soda

light brown coloured bottle, perhaps the empty with a cap on it?

Stats

HP +1(30 seconds), AP +20, Sleep -10, Thirst -15, Rads +1(30 seconds),

 

Sunset Orange Cream

Orange coloured bottle

Stats-

HP +15, AP +10, Sleep -15, Thirst -20, Rads+5

 

Labels I feel could be left the same, Sunset was a smaller company anyway and would have relied on less marketing strategies than the flashy labels of Nuka.

 

Up to you if they all have a chance at a star bottle cap, and if you do anything to the base drink, which only does+2HP for 25 seconds and +5 dehydration. I remembered base NV doesn't give you the empty bottle, so no worries there.

Stats are the same as for Sunset Sarsaparilla. I did not give them unique stats. Feel free to modify the stats as desired.
