📋 About This Mod
This mod adjusts the crafting and breaking recipes added by the Armour Repair Kit to the DUST Survival Simulator. The idea is to allow different builds that don't require Repair as main skill for Jury Rigging and don't want to drop armor constantly because unable to repair it. One of the many changes DUST does is to change the Weapon Repair Kit to be craftable by basically any build. Specifically, the original DUST mod changes the crafting recipe for the Weapon Repair Kit to be craftable at Repair 10 with the following components
-
[]1 Hammer (not consumed)
[
]1 Wrench (not consumed)[]1 Scrap Metal
[]1 Wonder Glue
[]1 Duct Tape
The Armour Repair Kit mod adds an Armour Repair Kit similar to what the WRK is but for armors. This mod changes this new recipe such that the ARK can be built at Repair 10, like the WRK, and with the following components
-
[]1 Hammer (not consumed)
[]1 Scalpel (not consumed)
[]1 Scrap Metal
[]1 Leather Belt
[]1 Duct Tape
ARK also adds recipes for breaking down both the WRK and the ARK to their components. This mod changes those recipes in order to return the right components except for the non-consumed one. E.g. the breaking recipe for the WRK will return 1 Scrap Metal, 1 Wonder Glue and 1 Duct Tape.
Remember to load DUST after the ARK mod and this mod after DUST.

[]1 Hammer (not consumed)
