Current features

• []Charred-tip Arrows and Bolts: right-click on a campfire to get the option to make them. You need a bladed weapon and a stick, as well. By default, this creates 1-2 ammo per stick consumed. Please be aware that clicking on this option will assume you want to transform all sticks currently in your inventory into either arrows or bolts.

  []Arrowheads: all the three vanilla types, leafshaped, broadhead, and bodkin. They can be bought and found in many different places. They stack to 100, making for convenient loot.

  []Hide Glue: necessary for gluing arrowheads onto charred-tip arrows or bolts, producing the respective ammo. Can be bought from tailors and, in smaller quantities, carpenters. It's implemented as granules, which stack to 500.

  []Customization Settings (Charred-Tip Ammo): by default, this ammo has a negative 50% modifier to both weapon damage and armor penetration. You can customize this in the Mod settings: it's your game, so feel free to change the arrows' and bolts' stats as well as how much ammo a single stick can produce.

  []Customization Settings (Arrowheads): arrowheads by default are both valuables and ingredients. Valuables are some of the easiest items to sell, so you have the option to remove that category if you'd like more of a challenge.

  []Trader Stack-Splitting: it is impossible, in the vanilla game, to purchase part of a stack from a trader. This mod fixes that.

  []Variable Trader Stacks: it is also impossible, in the vanilla game, for traders to genuinely have highly variable amounts of stackable items in their inventory. This mod fixes that, too, and uses this new system to more interestingly distribute the items it adds.

  []English language: this mod is in English only. Thanks to the help of the wonderful people over at the Stoneshard Mod Hub discord, the mod should be compatible with all other mods, even those that add context menu elements (i.e. right click options). However, this made it a lot more difficult to be translated. It's possible but I'd much rather wait for MSL to address the innate problems with working with the context menu before implementing other languages.

  Planned features

  • []I hope to add new arrow types, first in the form of additional nonmagical arrowheads. Blunt arrowheads that don't break, barbed ones that do rending damage and cause bleed, heavier and longer bodkins with limited range but exceptional armor penetration.

    Special Thanks

    []Zelemist for his endless patience in helping me with MSL and teaching me the cursed ways of UTMT assembly.

    []Pongrr for helping with assembly, compatibility issues, and so many things at this point I've lost count.

    []Nylux for all the wonderful tutorials and docs.

    []iamyoyoman for making the source code of his highly complex mods public.

    So that other might learn just as I did, the full source code is available on Github.

    Compatibility

    • []Stoneshard : 0. 8. 2. 10

      []MSL : 0. 11. 2. 0

      []You should be able to add this mod to an existing game without issue. Once added, however, it should not be removed unless you really know what you're doing. ALWAYS back up your save files before adding or removing mods.
