Material Weight Reducer Hauling planks and concrete shouldn't feel like leg day. This mod cuts the weight of most crafting and building materials down to about 1/5 of vanilla, so you can actually carry stuff back to base without doing five trips. What gets lighter:
Planks, logs, log stacks, large planks Sticks, saplings, tree branches, large branches Firewood + firewood bundles Nails, screws (and their boxes/cartons) Sheet metal (big and small) Steel rods, iron rods, steel bars, iron bars (halves too) Metal pipes, railroad tracks, barbed wire Ingots, iron, steel, brass, copper, gold, silver, pig iron Flat stones, large stones Concrete powder, plaster, wallpaper paste, clay cement Filled buckets (concrete, plaster, paste, cement) Sandbags, claybags, gravelbags, dirtbags Leather strips, denim strips, ripped sheets + all bundles Rope, rope stacks, hemp bundles Tarps and tarp pieces Bones, sharp fragments, small, large, jawbones Wheat, rye, barley sheaves Sheet paper Walkie-talkies Bolt cutters keys Books, Sets of books
Also contains optional mod that reduces the weight of ammunition cartons and boxes
Fire still burns properly.
Safe to add mid-save Safe to remove (items just go back to vanilla weight) Only conflicts with other mods that tweak the same item weights (last one loaded wins)
