LittleRedSonja Ammunition Recycling

This is a very simple mod that allows you to recover 80% of the resources from unwanted ammunition in a very easy straightforward way.

You open the ammo and recover the materials in the WORKBENCH.
If you have the optional “Custom Ammo Bench Add-On” installed you will disassemble the ammo in the “Ammo Recycling Bench” instead. You will get a package, OPEN IT and you will get your materials back.

No schematics or levels in crafting skills needed.

Crafting time and exact amount of resources that you get back are adjusted after cost and crafting time of the original ammunition, ammo complexity, quality and rarity, and if ammunition bundles exists or not, to make it balanced and prevent exploits.

Disassembling more complex types of ammunition, such as rockets, takes more time (but they will not explode, guaranteed ).

It includes all the Vanilla ammo, but it also adds support for the majority of ammo and weapon mods, and for many overhauls.

Some of the fully supported mods are “Izayo Weapons” mod, “Escape from Tarkov” overhaul, “EFT Extraction” mod, “District Zero” overhaul, “Server side weapons”, “Pant’s Weapon Pack”, “The Wasteland” overhaul, “Firearms Expansion 5”, “Rebirth” overhaul, “Oakraven Ammo Press”, “Extended Ammo”, “Steel Ammunition” and more!

If you want support for any other popular weapons/ammo/overhaul just let it be known and support will be added if possible .

Optional ADD-ON Custom Ammo Recycling Bench: An optional Add-On has been added, that includes a custom made Ammo Recycling Bench. If you install it you will recycle the ammunition in that new bench instead, freeing the workbench to craft other things. The new bench is crafted in the workbench. It is a 1×1 bench, and it can be placed on top of any block at any height, so you can decorate your base with it however you want. Unlike the main mod, which is server-side, the add-on requires install in both server and player computer, since it adds custom assets. It is optional, and not required to use the mod, just a little extra nice detail added in case you can use it.

Big thanks to all the nice and awesome people in Guppy Modding Discord, and specially Mumpfy, for always being so nice and patient .

Hope you enjoy the mod . Let it be known too if you have suggestions or find bugs.

Frequently Asked Questions

1– Is your mod compatible with X, Y or Z mod? : Yes, as far as known, the mod is compatible with the vast majority of other mods for 7DTD, including of course all LittleRedSonja’s other mods as long as they do not remove the vanilla ammunition. A lot of popular mods and overhauls have also built-in support, so they are compatible even if they delete the vanilla ammunition. If you find a mod or overhaul that is not compatible try renaming this mod folder so the game load it last (for example z_LittleRedSonja_AmmoRecycling). That solves incompatibility problems most of the time. If a mod is incompatible even then, please let it be known and a compatibility patch will be considered.

2– Can the mod be used server side only?: Yes, the mod can be used both server side only (so if the server where you play have it installed you do not need to install it yourself) or client side (if you play solo instead of multiplayer then you install the mod as usual). The only exception is the add-on with the custom ammo bench, that one requires server + player side install.

3– Can you add X, Y or Z ammunitions from X, Y or Z mod?: Other ammunitions included in other mods can be added. Just let it be known what ammunitions and what mod and they will be added to Ammunition Recycling.

4– Do I need any of the “supported mods” to use “Ammunition Recycling”?: No. This mod has no other dependencies or requirements. The supported mods are just that, “supported”, and are not required to use the mod.

• Updated to keep compatibility with the newest version of “EFT Extraction” (1.4.0.1).

UPDATE 1.8.1

Hi!
A small update because of Escape of Tarkov Updated to 1.4.

• Fixed errors because some ammunitions in Escape from Tarkov mod changed names in latest version for 1.4.

Hi!

Hopefully the next update will include new stuff, some new things are planned for the main mod and for the custom ammo bench, so hopefully it will be liked .

• Fixed compatibility between Extended Ammo and Oakraven press.
• Fixed compatibility between Steel Ammo and Oakraven press.

UPDATE 1.7.2

Hi!
A tiny update, just to keep compatibility with “Extended Ammo”. The opportunity was taken to optimize some things and reduce the size of the mod, so it will download faster and take a little less space in your hard drive .

• Updated to keep compatibility with the new update of Extended Ammo V12.
• Reduced the size of the mod.

UPDATE 1.7.1

• Fixed some errors when used together with Firearms Expansion 5, after the Flaregun ammunition was removed. This was preventing the mods to work well together.

Thank you raigekhi for reporting this .

Since Ammo Recycling includes support for a lot of other mods, reports of any problems or glitches when using this mod together with others are greatly appreciated, as it is sometimes difficult to keep track of every update or change in other mods. Thank you everybody!
