Description
A huge project made out of fanatical obsession, bridging gaps in the crafting system. The majority of these recipes will provide experience to assist in the laboring experience of leveling our unique fragile characters. And are modular so unwanted packages can be left disabled.

=Survival=
Chip stones, rip/create notebooks for/from paper and now paper sheets weigh much less + you can draw doodles for fun. Dirty sterilized rags, crush glass for use in creating matches, broken glass traps, and the glass working module. Scrap broken wooden weapons for campfire fuel, cologne & perfume can disinfect bandages.
Pencils can now erase map markings thanks for code from the popular 4 color Bic pen mod.
Wood chips can be gathered and cooked over a long period until they become charcoal, create gunpowder from charcoal & compost. Derive animal fat from meat to create candles & soap. Use bleach to disinfect water.
Crafted fishing rod now accepts tree branches, lighters & candles last longer and lighters are now refuelable. Create oil lanterns from tuna cans. Razors count as dull knives, Sawed shotguns can be put in the pistol holsters.
Pulverize stone for sacks of gravel & gravel into sand, create barbed wire, and prune branches into some sturdy sticks.
Carve wooden bowls from logs, make mousetraps, and bind multiple sturdy sticks for stone tools.

=Cooking=
Skilled chefs and cooks can prepare homemade bleach, homemade marmalade & jam that are now both usable in pie/sandwich making, and processing of sweet fruit & produce syrups into sugar, homemade ketchup/marinara sauce/vegetable oil/tortillas/pasta, and chop onions/french fries. Gather salt rocks and refine into salt.
Prepare various amounts of uncooked beef jerky using all types of meat + varying salt.
new medicinal tea using foraged leaves and herbs, and renewable vanilla teabags + chamomile tea, insect based cricket flour/cockroach butter. Silverware have a reduced weight. Marinara/Jam/Marmalade all return jars and lids.
Create tomato paste in a pot, and create maggot mash as a protein rich ingredient.
Creation of weak glue from cooking flour, or wood glue from hacking & butchering a corpse for bone cooking & curing using car battery acid.

=Metalworking=
Recycle unusable metal from jewelry/objects/junk/tools/weaponry/car parts even if they're broken, and refine unusable metal into scrap metal. Put blowtorches in your belt slot.
From scrap metal the fabrication of metal sheets/pipes/bars/welding rods/wire/buckets/paint buckets/door knobs+hinges/nails/jar lids are all available to a skilled metalworker with a blowtorch & mask. And antique stoves by metalwelders with cooking knowledge.

=Maintenance=
Hand scythe and Bread knives have a durability buff.
Carve small tool handles from logs, or large clubs/nailed clubs from branches/planks. Using metalworking skill you can fabricate cleavers/machetes/hammers/screwdrivers/hand forks/garden forks/hand scythes(now hand fork durability)/hand axes/wood axes/garden saws/sledgehammers using various levels of metalworking & maintenance skill to put them together.

=Glass working=
Create x2/x4/x8 scopes, pocket mirrors/glass jars using broken glass.

=Electrical=
Scrap unwanted electronics, gather electrical wire from electronic scrap, and create motion sensors/timers/remotes using electronic scraps and components. Batteries now weigh 0.01.

=Tailoring=
Cut up using scissors the majority of textiles available before you couldn't, for example cheap car seats for sheets, and better for leather strips. And wallets/belts/slings/fancy shoes for leather. Knitting needles function as needles that can't be used surgically.
Scissors can cut up ripped sheets into threads, and skilled tailors can twist thread into twine, then twine into ropes. Tailors can create rippedsheets/sheets/pillows/sacks/ropes/slings/ammo straps, gather twine from yarn and rope, and sew up holsters/double holsters. Can make basic long gloves from ripped sheets.
Spears attachments can additionally be bound using twine & leather strips instead of duct tape, their durability when combined makes more sense. If you have "Silent's weaponized glass, you can also crush glass shards, and bind glass shivs.

=Paints=
Filling paint buckets with extensive homemade colors, buckets of plaster from scratch, and hair dyes from paint.

WaKKO151 31 Jan, 2024 @ 7:07am 
with a can sealer. it looks like a can opener.

Quick Question: (and sorry if I'm just missing something) How do you seal the cans of food after you prepare them? I can't seem to find the prompt or recipe.

Edit: it seems throwing the tray back in a hot oven for a few seconds fixes this

Logging out with cooked curing syrup laid baking trays in your inventory halts the curing process, wasting it all

yup, "recycle into scrap" recipe
Toby 15 Oct, 2023 @ 2:28pm 
Is there a way to turn metal things (bars, sheets etc) back into scrap or unusable?
Satuis Aburda  [author] 9 Aug, 2023 @ 11:27pm 
No, also candles can't even be placed in the world as ambient light sadly.
