Warning: This will change the way you play the game!
Repair kits have always been odd. Always using the same 2 items to repair anything just seemed wrong. So here is a fix for that.
Each kit will handle a certain type or group of Items. Each type of repair kit is color coded and has an item icon in the corner as well so you can find the type you are looking for easier.
This mod is server side friendly, so you can just drop it in and go.
Repair Kit Types
- Iron Repair Kit – This is just the current repair kit in the game. Any non-vanilla items will still be repaired with this.
- Steel Repair Kit – Repairs Steel Tools.
- Motor Repair Kit – Repairs all tools that have a motor on them and the Generic Motor.
- Pistol Repair Kit – Repairs the Pistol, Magnum 44, SMG, and Desert Vulture.
- Shotgun Repair Kit – Repairs the Double Barrel, Pump, and Auto shotguns.
- Rifle Repair Kit – Repairs the Hunting, Marksman, and Sniper rifles.
- Machine Gun Repair Kit – Repairs the AK-47, Tactical AR, and M60.
- Bow Repair Kit – Repairs the Wooden Bow, Compound Bow, Iron Crossbow, and Compound Crossbow.
- Non-Metal Armor Repair Kit – Repairs cloth and leather armor.
- Metal Armor Repair Kit – Repairs Iron and Steel Armor.
- Military Armor Repair Kit – Repairs Military Armor.
A few items require JUST the parts of the item to be repaired. Those are the Steel Sledge, Stun Baton, Steel Club, and Machete. Those items just require the parts of that item to repair them.
There will be some updates for sure, but this is a pretty good start on it.

Many thanks for this, I’d love to see it updated to V20 as this is so much more interesting than having just one repair kit, IF you would please sort this I would be grateful. Thanks
Thank you for this mod. I like it and I want to have the many repair kits. But I must say beeing forced to have weapons parts for repair kits is too much. The weapons are not holding for long and must be repaired often, first of all the crossbow. I feel like I will never would able to find enough crossbow parts to be able to repair it all the time… maybe you can do some changes here? Maybe make able to produce special “repair parts” or just produce the ingame gun parts? Or change the recipes?
download a parts crafting mod lets you make them from scratch
Will you be updating this for A19?
