Sensible Balance: Item Weights and Miscellaneous Spawn Rates

December 2024 Note: This is created and tested for Build 41 only, the Build 42 update will come in the future! The mod may still work fine with Build 42 - but use at your own risk!

Three optional mods:

1. Rebalances the weights of many miscellaneous and 'material' items to enhance the player immersion and experience.

2. Added probability of spawns for realistically common items including but not limited to: cutlery, dishes, clothing such as socks, underwear, t-shirts, common useful items like cigarettes, candles, jars and their lids, nails, household items such as soap, toilet paper, and so on...
Going through the entire ProceduralDistributions file (determines item spawns for containers) by hand, spawns were only added where it makes sense to expect certain items.

Does not conflict with any other mods, and is affected by your custom game spawn rates. For example, as cutlery items are "melee weapons" they are affected by that setting.

3. Adds a few miscellaneous recipes that I felt were missing: for now I have added the ability to craft a sack/sandbag from sheets and thread or twine - this is possible with a needle or a paperclip, and requires level 1 tailoring. You can also craft sheets from 6 ripped sheets, same as Common Sense, however this mod overrides the recipe and it now requires you to have the thread/twine, and needle/paperclip. Both recipes yield some tailoring experience and so this is a useful way to train your skills if you are not barricading your house or making sandbags for any other reason.

Future Plans:
Update the mod for Build 42 when the time comes.
Of course, if there are any issues or imbalances I will try and correct them. I use all my mods myself.
