Forbidden Shaper [Asura Chi Add-On]

This mod adds the Stoma melee as available for crafting.
I've decided to do this in a separate mod because the way on which Kenshi handles custom melee types and models.

To keep it short, the Stoma will appear on the regular melee crafting bench along with the reactive Chi.
Any weapon you know (through research or blueprints) will also appear inside the Forbidden Shaper and this can't be avoided.
IGNORE other weapons and only craft Stoma.


To craft Stoma with Reactive Chi, you need to reach level 82 in farming. This is to still allow the coexistence with vanilla melee crafting (the highest vanilla level is 80). Since level 82 you'll be able to craft Stoma in all variants using Reactive Chi, there is 3 tiers of reactive Chi available and one to catch crits and avoid creating rusted junk near 100 FARMING stat.

To avoid making only Rusted junk until level 82, I've also paired 3 basic melee grades with the Stoma research:

- "Forbidden Shaper: Stoma" unlocks: Stoma, Reactive Chi (82) and Rusting Blade (10)
- "Forbidden Shaper: Stoma +" unlocks: Stoma +, Reactive Chi + (90) and Mid-Grade Salvage (15)
- "Forbidden Shaper: Stoma ++" unlocks: Stoma ++, Reactive Chi ++ (100) and Old Refitted Blade (20)

This means you'll be making Old Refitted Blade if you unlocked the research from level 20 until level 82, when you'll start making Reactive Chi.

I cannot stress enough the buggy nature of this and while it works, it will ♥♥♥♥ up the vanilla melee crafting system and other mods. Use it under your own risk (it won't break your game, only the melee crafting for players will be impacted).
