[B42] Ammo Crafting (Simple)

Description
This is a "light" version of the mod
You can find "hardcore/realistic" version here:
- Ammo Reloading Toolset (Realistic)


There's a compatibility Sub-Mod for "Rain's Firearms and Gun Parts", enable it only if you have Rain's mod


Find the Ammo Reloading toolset in various locations where you may find ammo or guns, as well as in pawnshops.
It is initially found inside of containers and can be placed like toasters/microwaves, and relocated later.

The drop rates are balanced for single player game, with rare random chance to find it in select locations explained below.


How to obtain it
- There's a minimal chance to randomly find it in various locations and containers with tools.
- There's a very small chance to find it in metalworking shops, among ranger tools and in survival gear locations.
- There's a small chance to find it in all locations where you may find firearms or with hunting gear/army surplus rare crates.
- There's a noticeable chance to find it in Gun stores, in hunters' caches, in pawnshops and in safehouses.
- You can craft it once you reach Metalworking level 5.


What does it do
The device uses new crafting interface.
Click on it directly or right-click on its tile and select "AmmoReloadingToolset". If it's on a table, you may need to click a bit below the sprite.

You can craft new ammo using scrap metal and gunpowder.
- A typical recipe is 1 scrap metal + 10 units of gunpowder.
- It produces a couple of pistol ammo boxes, or a single rifle ammo box.
- All vanilla ammo is supported.


Recommended mods
- Make gunpowder from charcoal and fertilizer.
- Make Charcoal in kiln to craft gunpowder from.
- Process scrapmetal for more crafting options regarding scrap metal, including more ways to obtain it.


Future plans
- Once Beta42 introduces Brass economy (the metal is already in the game, albeit barely used), the mod will receive more advanced features.

- Once the brass economy/proper metal resource obtaining is better integrated with vanilla, I plan to create easy/realistic versions, one for those who want more ammo (with still dedication required to find the tool and to collect/craft materials), and those who want harsher crafting approach.

- Once Multiplayer is working, a Multiplayer-friendly drop rate will be released as a separate mod, to allow more people on servers playing with these tools.

is there a list of compatible firearm mods?

Future plans: please keep the "simple" mindset for this, not all "simples" are made equal :)

can you also add a recipe for bulk gathering gunpowders? kinda annoys me a bit that i spend days trying to dismantle bullets while its making crafting laggy.

since 1 bullet is 1/10 of gunpowder, won't it make sense to just have 10 bullets make 1 whole gunpowder?

ah i went to say this mod crashes my game but as i read few comments i see it must be debug mode that its not compatible with.
