Description
This mod will turn any blocks that hit a grinder into scrap instead of the other base components.

No more inflation of components floating around in your game / server clogging up the need to go out mining / trading with others.

AwwScrap will return custom scrap components that mimic the components that are destroyed during the grinding process. So, for instance, when grinding a heavy armor block, you'll get "Steel Plate Scrap", and "Metal Grid Scrap" that will smelt down to the original materials that went in, minus some percentage based on the type of refinery you're currently using.

Components not recognized by AwwScrap will grind down into normal scrap at a 1:1 ratio.

Vanilla components and components from several mods (see the end of the mod description for a full list) are supported.

If you want some of your stuff back, see the Available Addons section. This is not included in the core mod as I feel it breaks the intent of the mod. However, I do recognize that vanilla AwwScrap can be really punishing in the beginning of a new game, or for beginners in general, so I've made "not so difficult" mode available via I Found Your Crap (addon, again, see below).

Current Returns
Large Refinery with 4x yield modules: 90%
Large Refinery with no yield modules: 45%
Basic Refinery: 45%
Lg/Sm Grid Skit: 45%

The different refineries will process scrap from the same components they can build.

The aim here is to make you and your friends think a bit more before randomly charging into battle without regard for repairs. It'll also force you to more creatively take out your targets if you plan to pillage and plunder your way through SE. Did you just damage that cargo container? Hope you have some spare parts laying around...

If you have an economy running, this will also help promote the component market.

No worries lol and thank you :steamthumbsup:

You know what, I read what you said and saw "Defense Shields", then you reply like you did, so I reread your original post and pretty much face palmed. My bad. I'll have it added in the next day or two.
Hype365 Jun 21 @ 2:19pm 
Yeah I hadn't seen it there so figured as much. You had mentioned trying to get it added a couple months ago and I wasn't sure if it was quietly added or not out yet.
Thraxus  [author] Jun 17 @ 7:50am 
There is a section in the mod description (towards the bottom) that lists all of the mods this has been made compatible with.
Hype365 Jun 15 @ 2:27pm 
Was compatibility with the Deflector Shields mod implemented?

Thx
Thraxus  [author] Jun 15 @ 6:23am 
Always better to ask than assume :D
Rider of Tang Jun 14 @ 4:13pm 
Ah ok, that is great, I didn't see it in the description so I wasn't sure
Thraxus  [author] Jun 14 @ 3:53pm 
They should already be on the ignore list (i.e. should grind normally).
Rider of Tang Jun 13 @ 6:53pm 
Hi do you think you can make it so you can still grind down component racks normally?
It's designed to allow you to take components from them by grinding to allow quick repairs.
