⚠️ Common Mistakes
- Installing multiple mods that modify the same files without checking compatibility
👍 Pros
- Solves the 'useless junk' problem for hoarders (71 endorsements show it's appreciated).
- Simple, lightweight crafting tweak that doesn't overhaul the whole game.
- Makes looting old batteries feel rewarding instead of pointless.
👎 Cons
- Last updated in 2020 — may not be compatible with the latest Fallout 4 patches or DLC.
- Only affects two recipes, so it's a very narrow scope.
- No documentation on load order or conflicts with other crafting mods.
