Latest file for v1.19.8:
fairstickrecipe.1.1.1.zip 1-click install


Saw + firewood = 1 stick.

Saw + log + axe = 4 sticks.

Why not more? I think it makes the game too easy.

Why a saw instead of just an axe? I think it makes the early game too easy.

I feel like by the time you have a saw to make sticks, you would have already solved your stick crisis with shears, no? I understand not wanting to ruin the grind of the start of a world, but by the time youre able to craft sticks, you normally have an abundance of them anyway. QuandaleNigel

DUCATISLO I don't agree, I think allowing an axe to craft sticks negates the slow grind of the start of a world, making it so you skip an essential part of the early progression: running around looking for stuff when you need it. By the time you have a saw, you should be established enough that running around and looking for sticks isn't an essential part of your daily routine, but an annoyance getting in the way of what you want to do. I wanted to be able to craft sticks without getting rid of that early struggle, and without giving myself so many sticks that it trivializes the gameplay loop. That's my line of reasoning for the mod being the way it is :)

If you prefer, you can go into the /VintageStory/Mods/fairstickrecipe-x.x.x folder, then click through /assets/fairstickrecipe/recipes/grid/, where you should see "stickrecipe.json". Double click that to edit; if you don't have a text editor already chosen you can just choose Notepad. Click to the right of "code": "game:stick" and place a comma (it should look like this -> "code": "game:stick",), then press enter to create a new line. Type "quantity": X, where X is however many sticks you want crafted from one firewood and a saw (in your case, 4, so "quantity": 4). That should do it for you! (After mod ver. 1.1.1: for the log and axe recipes, just change the values of "quantity" that are already there to your preference. No need to add anything besides what I said before).

Hope this helps!

Should be fixed now

Mithbot open fairstickrecipe-1.0.0.zip, there will be a folder inside, open the folder, copy the contents (assets, modinfo, modicon), go back outside the folder (inside the zip file) and paste it.
The mod owner uploaded it wrong.

QuandaleNigel Could you fix it? Great and balanced mod btw.

Getting a bug where the mod cant be loaded. Mod manager says "Unable to load mod. Check log files."
