Upgradable Tools
This mods adds more smithing templates to the game, so your beloved tools can get the upgrades they deserve, rather than being discarded.
The crafting recipe uses 7 of the current materials and 1 of the desired material. For example, 7 iron ingots and 1 diamond will get a diamond upgrade.
Currently, the mod allows vanilla progression of wood -> iron -> diamond, and gold -> iron
The recipes are as follows:
Stone Upgrade: 7 planks and 1 cobblestone.
Iron Upgrade: 7 cobblestone and 1 iron ingot.
Diamond Upgrade: 7 iron ingots and 1 diamond.
The mod currently works with all vanilla tools and armour, excluding leather and chainmail, and also works with Spartan Weaponry.
Feel free to use it in any modpacks.
