BK's Tinkering

Description
Adds "Tinkering" bills to the VFE: Ancients Repair Benches that use resources and an item to improve the quality level of that item one level, taking a good bit of time. Yes, all the way up to legendary. Basically a non-magic alternative to the enchant quality psycast.

Skill Requirment: Crafting 16

Updated to 1.5, thanks to Taranchuk stepping me through updating the .dll

Hope sometime in the future here this mod gets updated or at least gets forked. This is a great mod.

I'm using this mod here. Upgrade Quality. This mod not only allows you to upgrade your weapons, apparel, and armor, but you can upgrade anything with a quality to one of a better quality. Resource usage is customized by you to suit your colonies needs. So if you were to use a mod that added quality to just about everything in the game, this mod will allow you to upgrade all that stuff to legendary quality. But I just use it for the vanilla quality items.

@draconian_alpha1990,
What mod are you using now? I miss this mod in 1.5 but have no desire to pester BK with update requests.

Mod works in 1.5 but is causing an issue. The issue is as follows, when pawns go to work on other work stations like the stove, the progress bar fills up to full but no product is produced and the resources needed to make the item(s) remain where the pawn places them. I have found a mod that works in a similar fashion and will be using that until this one gets updated as I like this one better.

Late to reply, Thanks guys; sometimes I forget that QoL improving mods like this can just be left to run unattended! Micromanaging bills and suspending when neccessasry has allowed work to resume.

@RabidStoat : This error occurs with the original mending too, it just means you don't have the materials to work on the first item on the list. Synthread clothes are usually the culprit, since you don't tend to have much synthread lying around.
So what you need to do actually is find the blocking item and uncheck it in your bill's details, then your pawns can start working on the next one. If they still don't, you're also missing material for it (sunthread gear tend to come in bunches) so just repeat the operation until it works.
Or, you know, try to procure the stuff you need...
