Renewable Axes

A solution to the scarcity of axes when you want to roleplay your fireman job.

This is a mod that incorporates the removal of Axe heads to maintain it's condition and sharpness.

You can sharpen the head, build new handles, get maintenance xp for keeping your axes in good condition.

Essentially everything this mod adds you can find in the crafting menu if you search for "Axe."

Sawing heads off of axes lowers it's tier (3 tiers total, including base), which can then be sharpened for xp to return it to it's higher tier. Lower tier axes do less damage, and blunt axes function as blunt weapons.

Everything has been balanced around what I find to be "not easy, not convenient, but nice to have."

(IF YOU SEARCH "AXE" IN THE CRAFTING MENU AND FILTER ALL YOU'LL FIND BASICALLY EVERY RECIPE BESIDES THE WHETSTONE)

Recipes:
Axe Handle = Plank+Saw; Carpentry 2
Wood Axe Handle = Log+Saw; Carpentry 3
Hand Axe Handle = TreeBranch+Saw; Carpentry 1
Whetstone = 2 Stones (Sharp or not) + Hammer + Knife + Water; Carpentry 3


Removing Axe Heads require a Saw and Carpentry 2

Crafting an Axe (All Types) requires a Head+Handle+Nails.
Making a fresh, fully sharpened Axe requires significant Carpentry skill, 6 being the highest for the regular Axe.
Dull and Blunt Axes have lower skill thresholds, with 1 being the lowest for the Blunt Hand Axe.

Sharpening Axe heads can be done while removed or while still attached. You will use a whetstone as the tool to sharpen the heads. Your maintenance level affects your ability to sharpen back up to max tier (being just the normal tier). (I plan on adding a tier higher than base soon!).

The purpose of removing the head is when the Axe itself is fully broken. Eventually I plan on making custom Axe handle skins to make this more purposeful but as of now it's just more of "if you want to" or if your Construction level is not high enough to sharpen your Tier of Axe

Sharpening is also gated behind maintenance levels with 4 being the highest.

I'm still looking to change around some of the values later on, but right now it's the first release so I haven't had much time to play around with it yet to see if I want to change anything. Suggestions are more than welcome too!


ToDo:
Add Smithable Axe Heads;
Add Custom Sounds;
Change XP gained from using Blunt Axes to also gaining Blunt XP;
Alternate Handle Skins for customization.
