✨ Features

Build a Recycler and turn old weapons, armor and tools back into a share of their materials: recycle, salvage and reclaim the gear you've outgrown.

How it works

• Look at the Recycler and press E: pick a weapon, armor piece or tool from your inventory, see what it would return, and recycle it.
• You get about half of the materials back (50% by default; leftovers are a chance of one more). Recycler Presses built within 8 m raise this to 60% and then 70%.
• The gear must be one you could craft, and the crafting station it was made at (and its level) must be nearby. Equipped or upgraded gear asks for a second click. Items locked with L are skipped.
• The Recycler needs only bronze-tier materials (fine wood, bronze and stone), so you can build it as soon as you have bronze. Each Press costs iron, bronze and stone, so the better refunds come with iron. Restart the game after installing or updating it.

<!-- HAND-WRITTEN: other-mods --> Known clashes

• Adventure Backpacks (or any mod that refuses to let an item go): a backpack that still holds things gives nothing back, because it never leaves your inventory.
• Epic Loot and other mods that keep data on items: such gear (enchantments, a bag's contents) asks for a second click, because recycling destroys it.

Better together

• With Quad's Quality of Life: items locked with L can't be recycled.

Battle idols are never handed back, and levels gained at the upgrader station return nothing. <!-- END HAND-WRITTEN: other-mods -->

👥 Multiplayer

Who needs it: Everyone, and the host above all: a game without the mod deletes the pieces when their area loads. Restart after installing or updating them.

<!-- HAND-WRITTEN: multiplayer --> The host decides: the share returned, Press bonuses, chance rounding, the crafting-station rule and which gear can be recycled. While you play on their world their values replace yours (your file isn't changed); a host without the mod leaves everyone their own. <!-- END HAND-WRITTEN: multiplayer -->
