📋 About This Mod
This clean and simple mod introduces scrapping recipes for Scrap Metal and Scrap Electronics, which were previously unavailable to scrap in the game. This mod is also designed to compliment my AmmoCraft series of mods, but can be used without them.
Fallout New Vegas was never properly designed with the intention of allowing the player to craft all ammunition from scratch, should the player choose a "tougher" style of gameplay where ammunition is not littered all over the place like common loot.
This mod is properly balanced to compliment my other mods which also properly allows you to craft all ammunition, and also reduce the availability of ammunition from merchants, dead bodies and containers.
I also wasn't satisfied with the current crafting mods here on the Nexus, various problems exist with them so I decided to make my own using better and cleaner methods. I hope you enjoy them.
All scrap recipes are found under the "Scrap" menu, inside the Workbench
Uncommon items have a higher scrap output.
