Dumb Stuff

Players who play through the early game run into a few recurring friction points, and the mod targets several of them: food gathering before farms are established, fishing that yields little, and the lack of inventory automation that forces players to carry many separate stacks. Its changes are meant to improve what vanilla already has rather than replace it, and the author describes the set as additional features on top of the base game.

Bundles are the largest piece. Resource bundles collect dropped items of the same category automatically and store a full stack of whatever item type they accept, so one bundle can hold several kinds of stone, seeds or wood. Fishing bait is consumed to raise the number of extra fish caught, and crafting a bread gives an early route to better fishing drops. Dumb Stuff also touches furniture, the mail system and cooking, which the author lists as areas still being worked on.
