Swiss Army Knife

Description
Swiss Army Knife
Updated to V 1.1

A multi purpose Swiss army knife.

This update is a small one to fix urgent distribution errors.




Features

A custom model and an icon.

It serves as a screwdriver but it currently cannot serve for vehicular uses such as unscrewing car lights etc...
It serves as a weapon same with the durability of an ice pick and damage. So it shouldn't be your first choice of weapon.
It serves as a knife for recipes such as; slicing bread, slicing melon, crafting some basic items.
It serves as a can opener.
It can act as a saw in several basic recipes to cut wood etc...

Currently the tool can be found from kitchen counters, or even zombies you've killed. Most common place to find one would be a tool store or a warehouse. However, due to its wide range of usages it can be found in many areas you would expect them to be.

Known Issues
When using the tool as screwdriver, animation shows a screwdriver instead of the tool model. Will try to fix it.

Please comment below if you encounter any issues.

I don't think I'll be able to update the mod any further since I don't play PZ anymore. And it seems like more detailed ones have been included in other mods, and swiss knives could become vanilla soon which I'm not sure though.

@Cirrus, for your question, if I understood correctly, the 3D model is a custom one, but the item is based on a corkscrew. It is a stabbing weapon with a few useful features, such as opening cans, dismantling some electronics.

What model is this one based on?

@semisocialist: I dunno if it's been abandoned, but there's also a Swiss army knife in either G.E.A.R. or Advanced G.E.A.R. so for me I ended up disabling this mod anyway. Seeing as the person who made G.E.A.R. and the mods related to it (Algol) is now part of the dev team I wouldn't be surprised if we see Swiss army knives becoming vanilla content in build 42 or later.

Has this mod been abandoned?

It was the belt from "The Workshop", thanks for the update on the mod.

@Rickter_54 I've finally checked two modded belts in my game. Both of them are working. One is a tool belt from "The Workshop" mod and the other is a customizable +1, +2 belt from "Better Belts" mod.

If the mod you're using is not one of these could you tell me what it is? And for the category of the tool, I'll surely update it as "tool" since it gets separated from the other items in a large backpack. And it'd be more appropriate.

I'll try to post a new update in about a month with a few more varieties.

@kosashi I've never used the RE mod so I don't know what is conflicting. It'd help a great deal if you could post a debug log.
