📋 About This Mod

Description

Sometimes you don't WANT a triple cheeseburger meal.

Sometimes you just want fries and a small milkshake.

Sound like you? Then welcome to my ammo bench expansion!

Features:

  • []Plinking, Sur., Spc., AP, HP, +P, and GRA ballistic ammo can be crafted or broken down[/]

    []Specialty ammos require higher Repair than normal[/]

    []Sur. and Spc. ammos require lower Repair than normal[/]

    []All of the vanilla recipes and my recipes have breakdown equivalents[/]

    []Vanilla-styled recipe requirements for seemless integration[/]

    []Diminishing returns to prevent getting too much ammo too fast[/]

    []Safe to add or remove from your save file at anytime, and anywhere[/]

    []No vanilla content was edited, as all records are standalone[/]

    []Compatible with anything that doesn't add new ammo or similar recipes[/]

    TL;DR - My goal is to create all missing ammo bench recipes to make or break ballistic ammos in a Vanilla+ way.

    Future Plans (no ETA):

    • []Add missing junk ammo breakdown recipes (Done)[/]

      []Add the few missing GRA shotgun ammos I glanced over (Done)[/]

      []Implement any other ballistic ammo recipes if I missed any[/]

      []Maybe look into energy and explosive ammo (but no promises)[/]

      Install & Uninstall

      Install the plugin like any other ESP. Load order doesn't matter.

      Can be safely installed or uninstalled at anytime.

      Compatibility

      Technically compatible with E V E R Y T H I N G . No vanilla records were edited. All recipes are standalone.

      Worst case scenario, you'll have duplicate recipes if you have mods that do the same thing.

      Mojave Arsenal is incompatible. My mod should be considered a lighter alternative, as MA is more expansive in it's recipe changes.

      Recommended for use with it's sister-mod, Breakdown and Craft Ammo Materials - Lite Handloader Expansion.

🤖 AI-enhanced — based on mod data
