Hello everyone,

I would like to offer a suggestion that I feel would really benefit the game, especially for more advanced civilisations.

Cooking is quite a tedious task at the moment. This is not helped by the fact that you need three different cooking surfaces: hot coals, flat rock and adobe oven. You have to prepare one every time you want too cook something. It does not make sense in terms of the ethos of the game, where the more advanced you get, the more convenient daily tasks should be.

That is why I would like to propose to have a proper metal oven with a stove top and baking compartment.

It could be medium to lategame invention requiring wrought iron and some newcomen components.

The stove itself should be powered by either firewood or coals, to make it more resource draining and make each cooking session count.

The stove itself should have three compartments:

Oven - which would work like a hot adobe oven
Cooking top 1 - which would act like hot coals, and a crock could be placed on to cook
Cooking top 2 - which would act like flat rock, and could be used to cook things eggs on (maybe have a pan graphic to represent it)

I feel like this would be a good resource sink for late game villages as well as making cooking more enjoyable.

What do you guys think?
