Purpose of change
Another life changing change from me, and that after such a long break.
The Makeshift Arc Welder (MAW) was a bit of a odd case. It was the only tool, that was craftable, and inferior to industry produced tools. Soldering iron, torches, etc. were always at the same level. Not the MAW tho. It was just sitting "in a odd place".
Describe the solution
Removal of the MAW, migrate existing MAWs to regular AWs and remove any mention of the MAW in the crafting menu. The MAW recipe produces the AW now.
This leads to following pros:
AWs can be installed into the grid, the MAW wasn't.
AWs can be used to be installed into welding rigs. It wasn't possible with the MAW.
Con:
"Unrealistic". The MAW was inferior to the AW, this is now gone. Also there is no incentive to look for a AW when the recipe is known.
Neutral:
The amount of battery used is now "unrealistically" lower. But Power wasn't that scare to get.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Get a MAW working for Grid, that would lead to a extra Slot needed for the crafting requirements, bloating it more.
Testing
Working as intended. all MAWs are gone and replaced by AWs.
