Tags for tools functions

[GOGOblin]

Nowdays PZ has a recipe system that needs to point exactly what you want. For example you need to list an knife or a survival_knife in a recipe for butchering. You also need to make a recipe for every can if you want to make  -so needed - mod for can opening with knifes.

Could this be changed to a following system: every tool has tags like "use_as_axe",  "use_as_opener" or "use_as_knife". So recipes will only have to require "axe" or "opener". This will make modders happier and implementing multitools will be possible without rehauling of a shittons of recipes.  This also can be complemented with an IF condition, for example

 

Axe

...

if (handy=1) or (carpentry>3) use_as_hammer

if (handy=1) and (carpentry>3) use_as_saw

...

 

For the first time to test - use this only for "keep" tools.  

 

And multitools, yes, they just have more "use_as" tags

Nice! Wish I had one of these, have you seen the SPAX?

It combines the features of a prybar and an axe, and the hole in the center is made to open most fire hydrants.

The only thing left to add:

 

If I had welding equipment I would weld this to my first pic as a handle and this could be the best tool ever made : )

But you still can't open the fire hydrants like I can! With this ability, I shall rule the world! mwahaha

Well, the only thing I know about american fire hydrants - those red dildos growing from asphalt, right? - is that they are covered with dogs' urine.. But if you insist that those things grant power and prosperity I'll rather get one of those SPAX things..

Well, your pretty much right on fire hydrants, but they also could provide emergency water source.
