Survival Expanded - Bare Essentials

Even with zero available resources all hope is not yet loss. Create slag boxes to grow food quickly, harvest grass itself, and make food from it.


The core ethos of these independent mods is "Survival, not Thrival". It will give the tools needed to not starve or parish from environmental factors. Thriving will be up to the player and the other mods they bring along the way. ZARS was created in B19 well before some of the more notable favorite mods such as Vanilla Expanded Framework, and it's time to adjust accordingly.


Here is the catchall for general purpose use as an independent mod.

- Slag Harvest Boxes - Grow what you would normally be able to grow. Cross-mod and vanilla compatible.
- Dirt Wall and Dirt Doors - Quickly built shelter, compatible with vanilla walls and doors.
- Bed Mats - Better than sleeping directly on the ground. They are bedrolls, but much cheaper.
- Harvest what seemed like useless grass and bushes for Hay.
- Create edible pulp from hay and refine it to bland Paste.


- Removed Hay=>Cloth and Hay=> Wood conversions; letting other mods do it.
- Slag Harvest Boxes now have a fertility of 1.6 (160%) instead of 2.0 (200%). Still better than rich soil.

- Fix a typo in the about description now that cloth conversion has been removed.
- Boulder tables and stools. - These might not be implemented as tribal mods might have it sorted out.
