In many games like our beloved Vintage Story, crafting a shovel out of anything other than knapped stone feels like a waste... the shovel made of bronze quickly wears out, and it isn't long before you are going back out and braving the drifters, wolves, and those deadly mountain goats to mine again.

This minor tweak extends the life of your precious metal shovels to make them a little more worthwhile to create. Stone shovels are unchanged, and soft metal shovels like gold, silver, or copper still wear faster than their alloyed or durable counterparts.

The mod doesn't do anything other than this--you get what it says on the tin.
