cekivi Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Wait... for 0F is -18C and -40F is -40C...? Imperial units make no sense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cekivi Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Unlike some of the tools in the game the prybar wearing out is not completely beyond the realm of possibility. Prybars can be abused and broken much easier than a Gordan FreemanTM brand Crowbar. Those things are nigh indestructible! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bidule Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Not far from all those ideas, why not make tools have a starting condition that never drops (or by some accident, like a botched use that would deteriorate it) but link the condition to its effectiveness. For a math example, we could say that opening a trunk takes 1 hour + a variable 2 hours and those 2 hours would be for 0% with the maximum of 0h for 100% (simply take the inverted percentage to calculate). Now, finding a 20% crowbar is still good, but finding a 45% later on and you would be quite pleased. The better the quality, the rarer it would be to find. For blades, in addition to the fixed condition you could have a effectiveness rating that would be on % also, 100% of effectiveness on a 25% knife would apply it's full condition to the task as for a 50% effectiveness of a 50% condition knife would apply a 25% condition for the task. That effectiveness would have to be restored with a whetstone. You could trigger a loss of condition for any tools with improper use (your own condition or tiredness, poor skill, etc) as a botched result. Repairing a took (or in fact, improving it) would probably be impossible, or quite long time with a forge AND a lot of skill (and probably obtaining 1% after 1% for sometimes like it"s nearly the case with the "sharpening" skill. What would you think about that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcolithe Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 Just so you know, ive bent husky crowbars before when only leveraging a couple hundred pounds of cast iron, this is in the summer where the temperature doesnt compromise the metal. at -70c and lower, pretty sure metal tools are compromised. If anything there should be critical failures where the tool suddenly breaks at 100%, at least for interloper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
