"Nothing can come from nothing and nothing can be destroyed into nothing." - Parmenides

I always wondered how desperate, useless dwellers that are supposed to be regular citizens just take a few "materials", try very hard and melt 'em into a crowbar in a matter of hour.
Crafting should be more realistic, I thought. And with this mod - it is.

Now in order to make a tool, you need a BROKEN tool. Rest of ingridients still remain, so this mod makes crafting a bit more challenging.

Good news! When the tool breaks down, you receive a "broken tool".
Bad news! No trader will ever accept broken tool. C'mon, it's broken, who will ever need it?

So you can't just collect a few materials and make a crowbar - find a broken crowbar first. And yes, you can be unlucky and find no broken crowbars at your shelter. Well... That's gonna make your start a bit more challenging. You even might face a necessity to use your precious lockpicks at home instead of crowbar. But you're not afraid of that, right?

Another thing. How do you think dwellers can make a bed with just materials and wood? Answer: no way they can do that!
Eleatic Monism introduces new item to find: Ragged Clothes. It's included into recipes of stuff that would naturally need some fabric. Oxygen choices are coming!

- New items: Broken crowbar, Broken hatchet, Broken shovel, Ragged clothes, Fabric and so on.
- Broken tools are needed to make new ones.
- When item is broken, you receive broken one instead.
- New items are included into receipts of some good old ones. It'll definitely make your life harder, but crafting will become a little bit more realictic.
- Added a few receipts that'll help you getting resources out of other resources. Say, you can tear clothes apart to receive fabrics.

More interesting challenges are coming, stay tuned!
