Raw Sticks! - Vanilla friendly stick crafting

Raw Sticks - Solve your stick problems

Raw Sticks lets you craft raw sticks by using a knife and and axe on a log, simulating chopping the log and then carving it into usable sticks.

Alternatively you can craft them using firewood and a knife (if you already chopped the log) - both recipes should be balanced correctly.

As the log you chop is fresh the sticks are still raw and require drying before they are usable. After the sticks dry out for a while you can use them as any other stick.

 

This mod solves stick gathering being cumbersome without directly giving it an OP crafting recipe. I believe it stays close to vanilla in that you have to "earn" your sticks by waiting for them to dry.

 

The sticks can be stacked and will still dry while stacked, or in your inventory, similar to bowstaves. They will not dry inside containers.

 

Since the raw sticks are still fresh they will also not burn as well as normal sticks.

If you'd like the raw sticks in ground piles to dry faster, consider getting this mod.
