Is there an update in the works itchy?

I'm addicted to this mod, almost as much as EDB's prepare carefully..

so while it was still in testing I hacked together this..  i post it for your perusal, its not my work; i just adapted it.

The various items are gated behind various research topics. Since the tools are built at vanilla tables: Smithy for the tools, Machining for the tool belts - you need to research these first.

I created a new research topic 'advanced tool construction' that opens up the advanced versions of these tools.

the low tech versions are made from stuff, the advanced versions are not.

edit:   more learning for me.. have to define a thingcategory or they don't wear it as part of an outfit.  if anyone is interested, the attachment has been updated.     Of course I can't wait to see what kind of official update we get :)

If I manage to stop myself from playing Factorio for 5 minutes I'll be able to update my mods including this one.

What did Alpha 13 change that stops this from working? It was probably something minor, as the mod still works in the game, you can build the tool bench, but no one seems willing to sit down and do the work itself.

Yet another hidden gem of a mod by you I didn't realise existed. I'll await the update eagerly 😊

How workbench's get used got changed, so that's probably what's broken. If that's all that's broken, then I'll be able to update this quickly after I get home from work today. If not... then maybe no update this weekend.

Always worth waiting for Itchy. <3 And yes, gem of a mod!
It matters not if we win or fail. It's that we stood and faced it.

I think I may have accidentally updated the mod to work in Alpha 13.
Totally did not mean to do it. Complete accident. Honest. :P

But in all seriousness, the mod's been updated and I gave it a quick test run. Seems to be working fine now. If you were trying to play the game with the A12 version of this mod, you'll need to start a new colony. Several things have changed that would likely cause this to be incompatible with that colony.

Odd idea for a new tool... Do you know that the "Man Opener" is from the Fallout franchise?

Thank you for update !

Is it possible to have these tools placed in the inventory, rather then equipped as a weapon?
Or would the work modifier not apply in that situation?

harpo99999

if the tools are made in to a 'toolbelt' or 'advanced toolbelt' then they effectively are in the inventory

Thanks Itchy! Just noticed it was updated! lol!  ::)
