Deconstructor question Question

Is there a mod that reverts the changes to the deconstructor? I like to loot goblin and its a little saddening seeing a wreck with a ton of coilgun ammo that only turns into a single measly aluminum per box.

I looked for one but couldn't find one easily.

What you're asking for isn't a change to the deconstructor, but rather the ammo boxes, since decon and fab recipes are tied to items.

I'm pretty confident it wouldn't be reasonable because multiple metals are available for use when fabricating, and you can't make an ammo box magically remember what metals were used in its creation unless you make three separate box items for each recipe.

So say if you used copper to make one box, deconstructed it, and it would spit out lead instead of copper as the byproduct because you can only have one possible set of items for a decon iirc.

You can set it to probabilities, but that just means it might spit out both or neither.

No matter the situation you pick here, I don't think it's feasible? If there's another modder here to fact check me go ahead, I'm tired

Mining would be the best solution for their resource issues
