i just started to play this game and i was nearing energy loss, so went to home tent to sleep. woke up and the space on task bar where pick axe was is empty. and its no where in my inventory! :( what happened ?? how did i lose it?

When you pass out it damages your items so unless you accidentally hit Q which drops the item immediately in front of you then it was broken beyond repair and you need to get a new one.

Does the copper tools break less ??

I believe they have the same durability, but take less hits to break things, so it sort of works out to still be more durability, if that makes sense?

Well the main point here is another one IMHO.
About the pickaxe the other guys explained you the possible reason.
What I want to add instead is the fact that you don’t really need to sleep to replenish your energy meter, you can eat instead.
