Is there any way I can change the tool belt slot? Many of my mods add things to the same slot and I'd like to change that.

This might be interesting to you too (though not updated too...): https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/workshop/filedetails/?id=2566231583

Thanks ... I'm actually subscribed to it and didn't realize! Perhaps I'll take a look at it and see what can be done for a 1.5 update ...

Found it, here it is https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2874729883
Comments say it doesn't wor on 1.5, unfortunately.

This one does not, and I don't know, first I've heard of that. Sounds interesting, though ... let me know if you find it!

I believe there was a mod that decreased the workspeed without the right tool. This one doesn't, right? Don't you know which one that was?

Thanks

Of course. Updated to 1.5.

1.5?

It doesn't appear in my game. I've added it and I can see it in the modsconfig.xml in the config folder. But it won't be loaded and I can't see any content of it. Is there anything wrong with your file, like a dll file missing？

Updated: Moved drill, chainsaw and autohammer to Machining research.

Great suggestion, will do!

So nice to see one of the earlier toolmods getting updated for 1.4 :D
Suggestion: the drill, chainsaw and autohammer should be moved into machining research since having them already through smithing is breaking the game balance for tribal starts a little bit. I think tribal starts weren't a thing back when ItchyFlea created the mod.

You don't have to risk a save, you could go to the mod folder and open the .xml with a text editor, but I'll try to get around to that for you. :)

Any chance of posting the stat offsets for those who are curious but don't want to risk a save to find out?

@meltedplasticarmyguy You want automatic tool switcher:

Gonna be more interest in this with VWE removing tools without warning.

Yes, there's no fancy logic or code here - this is an ancient mod, these are simply melee weapons with stat offsets.

The right tool is not being used. My pawn insists on use the hammer for everything... even combat. It does not matter if there are better items in the inventory, it's always the hammer.

Please let me know if you run into any issues.

They shouldn't conflict, VE is usually good about internal naming of items, and I try to be as well, so that mods don't conflict if even they have similar content.

it has a hammer too and some other tools i think

Don't see why it shouldn't be, these are basically melee weapons and apparel, nothing too special going on.

compatible with vanilla extended ?
