AwwScrap: I Found Your Crap!

Description
By popular demand, this addon to AwwScrap will allow hand grinders to return some % of components instead of scrap.

AwwScrap (or one of its spin offs) is required for this to do anything!
https://sp.zhabite.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1542310718

Rates of Return
  • 80% of scrap is converted to components for a Tier 1 Grinder (Basic)
  • 60% of scrap is converted to components for a Tier 2 Grinder (Enhanced)
  • 40% of scrap is converted to components for a Tier 3 Grinder (Proficient)
  • 20% of scrap is converted to components for a Tier 4 Grinder (Elite)

The above is not a typo! Slower grinders will get you better returns!

Any scrap that doesn't fit in your backpack while grinding will be shunted to a engineer bodybag (the same thing that spawns when you die). It will expire after about 5 minutes, or whenever it's emptied. If there is an existing bag within 5 meters of your engineer, it will be reused. Otherwise, a new one will be spawned at your feet. Take care to empty it before it despawns!

By default, you must be either the person who owns a grid, or in the faction of the person who owns the grid to get any returns.

There is a user configuration file that controls pretty much every setting in this mod! It can be found in the storage folder of your save game.

Notes
This mod will ONLY work on properly defined AwwScrap scrap. If you're running into the generic scrap returns, then you will still only get generic scrap returns.

Questions, comments, concerns can be directed to me either here, on the workshop page, or you can always find me in the EEM Discord: https://discord.gg/PNtpMyw

Did you run the game first?

I'm not seeing this mod listed in my storage folder under the save game.

Could have done it many ways; the way I choose just made the most sense at the time. However, the decision to exclude ship grinders would have remained. Dealing with ship grinding activities en mass and trying to manipulate ship inventories (while keeping ownership in mind) every game tick is not something that would be performant nor reliable.

Couldn't you have reversed the logic and made it so that grinding had a chance to give scrap instead? Then ship grinders would be able to get components back instead of scrap.

First line of the mod description :P

By popular demand, this addon to AwwScrap will allow hand grinders to return some % of components instead of scrap.

Ship grinders would have been too expensive (performance wise) and difficult (logic wise, tracking owners / operators) to allow scrap-to-component conversions.

Ive been reading and cant find a solid answer, Do ship grinders turn everything into vanilla scrap or do they turn stuff into component scrap like the og version? I cant see anything about ship grinders in the og mod either.

I could make it gigantic, sparkle, and pay out $5 for every letter read and it would still go unnoticed, haha.

@Thraxus I've seen you say that a few times already. You should add that to the top of the description in big letters for those that don't bother to read. lol

Also of note - hand grinders only. This does not work with ship grinders.

@Duff Are you grinding a grid you own? By default, the mod does not return components when you grind unowned grids (something I forgot myself just now when I started a new game).
