Long Stick v0.4.6

Long Stick Spear#

Adds Long Sticks, twice the length of normal sticks, with a new spear recipe that doesn't require 2 sticks and ducktape, dedicated storage holder structure and Kelvin gathering command.

Features#

• Long Sticks from vegetation: Small trees and plants that normally drop sticks now produce Long Sticks. Normal log-producing trees keep their original drops.
• Natural world spawns: By default, 10% of eligible natural stick locations receive an additional Long Stick nearby. The original sticks remain, and collected extras can spawn again after reloading.
• Dedicated storage: Build Long Stick Storage from the blueprint book. It resembles the normal stick holder and stores 20 Long Sticks.
• Kelvin support: Ask Kelvin to Get → Long Sticks → Fill Holders. He collects loose Long Sticks and deposits them in the new holders.

Spear crafting#

Choose either recipe:

Recipe	Ingredients
Original recipe	2 normal sticks + duct tape + knife
New recipe	1 Long Stick + knife

Both produce the normal crafted spear. The knife is reusable, and the new recipe uses the original spear crafting animation.

Installation and use#

Requires RedLoader 0.8.6. Single-player only.

1. Fully close the game.
2. Extract the ZIP into your game folder, beside SonsOfTheForest.exe, keeping the included Mods folder.
3. Launch with RedLoader and load your save.
4. Find Long Sticks naturally or collect them from small trees.
5. Combine a Long Stick and knife on the crafting mat, or store your Long Sticks in the new holder.

When updating, replace both mod files and keep only one LongStickSpear.dll in Mods.

Settings#

Open Pause → MODS → Long Stick Spear → Settings.

• Adjust the natural spawn chance from 0–100%, with a default of 10%.
• Enable or disable Long Stick drops from vegetation.

Notes and limitations#

• Multiplayer is not supported.
• Long Sticks currently use the normal stick inventory icon.
• Crafting requires a free spear inventory slot.
• Kelvin needs reachable loose Long Sticks and a holder with available space.
• Keep the mod installed while your save contains Long Sticks or custom holders. Remove those items and structures before uninstalling.
