Buff duration and calculation reference

I was considering adding a game code reference to the Buff Duration Column Header on the Cooking#Recipes page.

Reference would be the following: Buff duration for Food and Drink appears in Content\Data\ObjectInformation.xnb at the 8th index. The given number must be then multiplied by 700 to have the duration in milliseconds. This formula appears in Buff::Buff in the game code.

I don't know if modifying the template is the best way to introduce a game code reference, but I'm not sure where else it could be mentioned. It could be added on the Buffs#Available Buffs page instead, but it makes the information more distant. It is also mentioned on Modding:Object data#Food & Drink but without the reference to the .exe function.

Not the best idea to put a reference in a template. There is a section on the Cooking page called "Buffs", and that would be a much better place for the information. margotbean (talk) 22:49, 19 November 2021 (UTC)
