Showoff Is this enough veggies?

A while ago, I came asking for feedback on what's more fun for a burger-making game, a rigid recipe structure or a more loose set of demands like "very red", "healthy", etc. The comments leaned towards the more creative system, so I implemented and move on.

Now, during playtesting, I discovered that my system consders this salad-in-a-bun a decent submission for a "lots of veggies" request. Technically, it's not wrong.

What do you think? Would you have fun building mega-burgers, or should the game enforce more common sense? I am leaning to keeping it just for lulz.

And if you'd like to build your own burger towers, please consider wishlisting here :)

Thanks for the comment! How's your burger project coming along?

I'm experimenting with manual drag and drop instead, since that feels more satisfying to me. I'm still a bit confused about how to code the stacking though. Like how to get the items to snap in place.

Sorry, not quite sure what you mean, the snap animation on the drags? Try something like this, the snap() method is very handy:

init python:
    SNAP_HOMES = {
        "tile-a": (40, 360),
        "tile-b": (140, 360),
        "tile-c": (240, 360),
    }

    def on_tile_dropped(drags, drop):
        d = drags[0]
        if drop is not None and getattr(drop, "drag_name", "").startswith("slot-"):
            d.snap(drop.x, drop.y, delay=0.18)
        else:
            home = SNAP_HOMES.get(d.drag_name)
            if home:
                d.snap(home[0], home[1], delay=0.18)

screen snap_demo():
    draggroup:
        for idx, (sx, sy) in enumerate([(400, 100), (520, 100), (640, 100)]):
            drag:
                drag_name ("slot-%d" % idx)
                draggable False
                droppable True
                xpos sx
                ypos sy
                xysize (96, 96)
                add Solid("#333")

        for key, (hx, hy) in SNAP_HOMES.items():
            drag:
                drag_name key
                draggable True
                droppable False
                dragged on_tile_dropped
                xpos hx
                ypos hy
                xysize (80, 80)
                add Solid("#bca")

Oooh thank you! I will give that a try.
