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.
No schematics or levels in crafting skills needed.
It includes 9mm, 7.62, Magnum .44, all the different ammunitions for shotguns and rockets.
It takes some time to get the materials back. Opening and recovering materials from more complex types of ammunition, such as rockets, takes more time (but they will not explode, LittleRedSonja promise 😉).
Like all her other mods so far, this mod is “Server-side-only friendly” (if you play multiplayer the mod only need to be installed in the server, if you play single player install the mod as usual).
If you want her to add modded ammunition let her know what mod you want to make compatible and she will look into it 😊
She hope you enjoy the mod 💜. Let her know 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 she know her mod is compatible with every other single mod for 7DTD, including of course all her other mods, even full conversions or overhauls should be compatible as long as they do not remove the vanilla ammunition. If you find a mod that is incompatible with hers please let her know and she will see if a compatibility patch can be made.
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).

HOW IT WORKS
1- Open the workbench. In the left panel, in “Ammo/Weapons” category you will see recipes for “Recycled Ammo” bundles for each type of ammunition.
2- Make sure you have the ammunition you want to recycle in your backpack.
3- Select the recipe for the type of ammunition that you want to recycle and click “craft”. You can craft more than one bundle at a time as long as you have enough ammunition in your backpack.
4- After a few seconds you will get one or more “Recycle Ammo” bundles.
5- Open the bundle, in the same way you would open other bundles in the game, to get the recycled materials. What materials you get depends on what kind of ammunition you are recycling. DO NOT SCRAP the bundle, just OPEN IT.
6- Profit 😉

Is it possible to have this mod also be able to breakdown 5.56 ammo that other mods have added to the game?
Hi, thank you for the question! 💜
Right now it is already possible to break down 5.56 ammo that izayo weapon pack includes. I am not aware of other mods adding 5.56 ammunition to the game. So if it is from Izayo, support is already implemented. If it is from other mods yes, absolutely, I am more than happy to add support for any other mod that adds custom ammo. So if you tell me the name of the mods I will take a look and most likely be able to add those too. 😊
Do you need the mods this one is compatible with (Izayo and District Zero), or can it be used on its own?
Hi!
The mod can be used on its own, it has no requirements or dependencies on any other mod, so do not worry.
Nice!
Thanks, I am happy that you like it! 💜
The mod causes blank on the crafting menu
Hi!
This mod does not edit, add or change anything in game windows or menus, it only adds recipes for disassembling ammunition, nothing else, and unless you have some other mod installed that is doing really weird stuff it is impossible that something like what you describe even happens.
If your crafting menu goes blank you probably have some other mod installed that is causing trouble, specially mods adding DLL, or game files corruption, or if you are using an old version of 7days to die (the mod is for 1.0 and later version only).
Those are the first things I would check to solve your issue. If you cannot figure it out you can provide me with a list of your mods, and I can help to see if any of those could cause the bug you describe.
So far I have not found any mod that could be incompatible with mine, and after testing it both single player and multiplayer with almost another 90 mods installed, and several thousand players using the mod, I have never seen or being reported of any bug at all.
In any case, like I said, check for other possible mods causing the bug, or provide me with a list of your other mods, and I will be more than happy to try to help you 🥰
