List of Tools and Toolmods

This page holds the list of many of the tools you will find in and around the colony, ranging from makeshift tools made of scrap you would find anywhere to highly advanced tools that are extremely rare, made by the defunct megacorp Greyson Positronics, you can find these tools in their ancient ruins that are defended by the machines they left behind. Think of it as a dungeon you must clear to gain the most valuable loot with a boss at the end.

Getting back on track, These are the tools you will need to use to construct and deconstruct a large range of objects, medical and mining tools are also included. Each variant is typically more effective than the previous, and the best part about them is that they can be upgraded with specialised toolmods. These can improve the workspeed, tool duration, battery capacity or even make the tool silent for hacking into doors or hacking locked closets.

Tool Stats

Each tool with a quality has its own stat of Precision and Workspeed, which can be checked if different from normal by either examining the tool, or pressing the "i" button on your HUD when holding it. These values tend to go into the negatives on visibly old tools found in maintenance or during salvage.

Precision indicates the success rate of a tool in general circumstances. Higher is better, negative not so much. Failure rates are also dependent on your relevant Stats and the quality of the tool's function.

Workspeed is the multiplier of how fast a task is when using the tool. Again, higher is better.
