Thread and Twine

Description
Adds simple recipes that allow you to make thread, twine and rope from ripped sheets, AND GAIN XP DOING IT!







Ever found yourself in need of any of the 3 and thought to yourself, why can't I just use a series of sheet ropes to make an actual rope?

Or how about, why can't I cut these ripped sheets down into basic threads, which ripped sheets are made of?

And finally, why can't I pull this rope into smaller pieces, twine, and use it for my fishing rod?

No more will anyone be struck down in the wilderness by these silly redundancies!
With this mod, the obstacles that are sewing, twining and roping will no longer be a hindrance to you!
Be free to take on more important matters at hand with this simple mod!

Please note, this mod isn't intended to be realistic and might make tailoring a lot easier for you, but alas, to each their own.

A huge thanks to RapidMinimumBeaver for adding a lot of flavor to this mod, by writing the code to gain small amounts of XP from the recipes, and balancing the recipes so that users won't feel overpowered, or get easily bored.
RapidMinimumBeaver was also very kind and attentive enough to add "Roll Back" recipes meaning that you can reverse your recipes from, say, rope to twine at a ingredient loss, as to prevent players from cheesing XP gains.

This update was added on December 16th 2020.

If you enjoy these new features, please give all your thanks to RapidMinimumBeaver, as he did all the work on this update.

Can confirm that the craft thread option is grayed out. Tried with scissors in inventory and with both ripped sheets and sheet rope in inventory.

@chreo1337: I think Johnny forked the code since the last time I updated it, but in my version you needed scissors in your inventory to downgrade anything, like Sheet Rope to Thread. Can you make sure you have scissors in your inventory and see if it's still greyed out?

So i crafted a bunch of sheet rope but the option to craft thread is still grayed out. Is it bugged or is there something else not listed in the Tailoring section that i don't have?

@Pootisp
This was implemented to stop people from cheesing tailoring skill.
If you want to farm tailor XP, then get to work, farming is tough but honest work ;)

Sadly now this mod became almost usless for farming tailoring ...
Its still a Great mod ! Dont get me wrong
But i'd say that there should be at least 1\1 Craft (Like 1 twine = 5 tread and the same othey way around ) :spiffo:
