== [[Campfire]] ==
To create a campfire, first find a [[tree]], double-click your [[hatchet]], right-click the tree, then select "[[cut down]]". Keep chopping down the same tree until the tree vanishes. Now there should be a [[log]] or a [[felled tree]] on the [[ground]]. For the felled tree, right-click and select [[chop up]] to create logs. Now double-click either your hatchet or [[carving knife]], right-click the log, and select "Create > [[Miscellaneos]] Miscellaneous > [[Kindling]]". Now that you have kindling, double-click your [[steel and flint]], right-click the kindling, and select "Create > Campfire".
==[[Meal]]==
To create a meal you will need a [[vegetable]] and a piece of [[meat]] or [[fish]]. Heat them up to [[Temperature|searing hot]] and put them in a [[frying pan]], and you will have a meal. Various low-[[nutrition]] foods like [[bread]], [[berries]], or [[cheese]] can be added to the frying pan to make your meal larger. Meal [[quality]] will, in most cases, equal your [[hot food cooking]] (HFC) skill, unless you try to cook a meal with too high difficulty.
==Why won't my hot food cooking (HFC) skill go up==
You are probably cooking too high or low difficulty food. At HFC 1, cook a couple of 3-5 difficulty foods (like stews). Keep the difficulty up to 10 more than your current HFC. To check the difficulty, right-click the container the food is in, and select "[[Examine]]" (which will also tell you what the food will turn out as and the container's temperature). Try cooking lots of stews at once to gain cooking skill faster.
Gaining cook skill is a mystery, although [[Rolf]] has posted on the [[forumsforum]] s the way it should work. What works for one player doesn't always work for another. Use trial-and-error to find what works best for you.
Using 1 [[cooked meat]] and 1 veggie works well until about HFC 30. Once you get to 30, skill gain seems to slow down and you will probably only get skill for every 5-10 meals. You can also use [[corn]] as a component, which is especially nice since you can grow your own and will not have to go out search for ingredients.
