Serving and Eating Meals on Plates

Plates allow you to set dining tables and display your food visually in your world rather than eating straight out of your inventory.

Adding Food to a Plate

Once you place a plate onto a surface like a table or counter, interact with it while holding food.

• A single plate can hold up to 48 food items in total, divided across multiple sections.
• You can combine different types of food on the same plate.
• The food physically appears on the plate and shifts its layout dynamically as you add more items to each section.

Eating from the Plate

To consume the meal, interact directly with the food resting on the plate. Your character will eat the food portions one by one. By default, eating requires room in your hunger bar, though configuration options can alter how and when you are allowed to eat. Once all portions are finished, the plate remains on the surface, empty and ready for your next meal.
