Modular Tools for ECO is a game mod designed for Windows that enriches the crafting and repair mechanics of the game. This mod allows players to break down all types of tools, including stone, iron, steel, and modern variants, into their components, making it easier to manage resources. Players can also deconstruct bows into pieces, which adds depth to the crafting system. Each tool now requires specific items for repair, and players can repair tools at a Tool bench, regardless of their profession, as long as they have the necessary components.

The mod introduces a new challenge, as tools cannot be used when broken, necessitating repairs. Players can attempt a quick fix in the field using tool heads, which comes with risks, including potential durability loss. The success of repairs is influenced by the player’s self-improvement skill, adding a layer of strategy to the gameplay. Installation is straightforward, although users should be aware of compatibility issues with other mods that override tools.
