Pete's Improvement Mod version 25 (2018-10-25)

This mod makes adjustments throughout CraftTheWorld to improve the quality of gameplay. Dwarves are faster and can carry more, every resource in the game is renewable, and the invasion hordes aren't nearly as strong so survivability is improved.

Changes

• Dwarves base carrying capacity increased from 3 to 4.
  
• Dwarves level much faster (especially levels 2-6).
  
• Dwarves base movement is 20% faster when walking, 75% faster when climbing walls, and 100% faster when climbing ladders.
  
• Dwarves automatic rest threshold changed from 40% to 60%.
  
• Slugs have a very small chance to drop gems (1%) and mithril (0.1%).
  
• Beetles can drop dirt (10%) and sand (25%).
  
• Chickens can drop stone (50%).
  
• Sheep can drop extra wool (50% for +1, 25% for +2) and have meat drop variance (50% for +1 instead of always +1).
  
• Boars and snow turtles have leather drop variance (50% chance for +1, 25% for +2 instead of always +1).
  
• Spiders can drop dirt (25%) and webs (50%).
  
• Zombies can drop coal (20%) and iron (10%).
  
• Bloated zombies can drop coal (x2 60%), iron (25%), silver (x2, 10%), and gold (2%).
  
• Skeletons can drop coal (10%), roots (5%), stones (20%), and gold (3%).
  
• Skeleton knights can drop coal (20%), roots (10%), stones (40%), gold (6%), and mithril (2%).
  
• Ghosts (the one that harasses your storage) can drop mithril (0.1%).
  
• Yetis will drop more tallow.
  
• Sofas and beds can be placed adjacent to other objects.
  
• The recipe for creating oil from berries and stone now yields 4 oil instead of 1.
  
• The recipe for creating seeds from wheat now yields 5 seeds instead of 2.
  
• The recipe combining 8 wood + 1 dirt to produce 1 coal has been removed.
  
• A recipe for combining 3 wood to produce 1 coal has been added.
  
• A recipe for combining 4 stone to produce 1 iron has been added.
  
• A recipe for combining 2 iron to produce 6 needles has been added.
  
• A recipe for combining 3 mithril ingots + 2 gold ingots to produce a mithril pick has been added.
  
• A recipe for combining 2 mithril ingots + 2 gold ingots to produce a mithril axe has been added.
  
• A recipe for combining 2 mithril ingots + 2 gold ingots + 2 needles + 1 quartz to produce a mithril hammer has been added.
  
• A recipe for combining 4 mithril ingots to produce a mithril sword has been added.
  
• A recipe for combining a pink crystal, gold ingot, and mithril ingot to produce some magic boots has been added.
  
• The invasion horde will only contain skeletons, skeleton knights, and gargoyles; no zombies or beholders.
  
• All monsters that can drop weapons or equipment now have a much higher chance to drop that equipment.

Installation Instructions

Here's how to get my mod working for you. Please note that you will need CraftTheWorld version 1.4.015 released September 24, 2018 to use this mod. Any time the game is updated, I will have to publish a new version of the mod.

• Close down CraftTheWorld if it's open.
  
  
• Make a backup of your main.pak file in:
  
  

  C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\CraftTheWorld

  (assuming you have Steam installed in C:\Program Files (x86) -- your actual path may vary)
  
  
• Download Pete's Improvement Mod version 25 (2018-10-25)[s3.amazonaws.com] and save it to the path in the last step.

Notes

• You will have to start a new game if you're coming from the standard game (not upgrading from a different version of my mod). You won't be able to keep any existing progress -- changes in crafting trees causes lots of issues with existing games.
  
• You'll need a random recipe scroll drop (from chopping trees or mining) for the first few recipes before the crafting tree unlocks when playing sandbox mode; the recipes I've added won't show up in the crafting tree.

Well, we'll have to ask PETE to do the job but I think he is busy with his life.

Stupid life things.

I know dude you have already mentioned that issue. Well I hope you pass that wave of skeletons and zombies and enjoy the fresh morning.

You know you sow karma when you create MODS for people like us. Because those MODS make us people happy and nature in the end will do something that will make you happy.

Prayers for a happy life for you brother.

We want the fresh PETE full of energy among us delivering cool mods and having fun :)

CHEERS.

Hope you've been doing alright, if not, hopefully things will get better. Either way, thanks a lot for your work on the mod.

By adding the <!-- aren't you removing the recipe?

What happened to Zombie Crusher?

[Mean.Cloud]

I've been busy as hell -- going through divorce actually threw more chaos into the air than I thought it would. And the free time I have is going towards other games I play and the dating scene, to be bluntly honest. :) Every now and then I circle around to update my mods. It's years old though and I forget about it sometimes.

[Pontiac Jones]

Ugh, dating, usually overrated for what you get out of it. I wish you well in getting your life back into a semblance of order. Thanks for devoting even a smidge of your time towards this mod.

[MooOooN]

Dude I loved your mod.... hell well all did. It still rocks when i get back to it. Just sort your things out and release an updated mod.

I hope you (don't find what you think is best but) find what is actually best for you....

[Poggle the Greater]

Best of luck in what you're going through :) I'm sure most of us will be here when/if you're able to update it

The main post answers both of your questions.
