Casual Tinkering

# Casual Tinkering Casual Tinkering is an addon for Tinkers' Construct that introduces two unique tools: the Circular Saw and the Magic Device. ## 1.12.2 Version (Forge) ### Circular Saw A powerful and versatile hybrid tool designed to enhance both woodcutting and combat. **Features** - **Hybrid Tool:** Crafted from two Tough Tool Rods, a Large Plate, and a Pan. - **Efficient Woodcutting:** Functions as a highly efficient Hatchet for felling trees—offering greater speed and durability than standard axes. - **Melee Combat:** Serves as a formidable weapon with a unique charged attack. - **Charged Sweeping:** Hold right-click to wind up and unleash consecutive wide-arc strikes in a frontal cone, perfect for crowd control. - **Precision Sawing (Modifier):** 5× Compass – Logs that can be processed into planks drop as planks instead. - **Overclock (Modifier):** 5× Redstone Comparator – Increases damage dealt to secondary targets during sweeping attacks. ### Magic Device A mystical sword that summons magical swords to assist in combat. **Features** - **Ranged Strike:** Hold right‑click to charge for 1.5 seconds, conjuring two magic swords that fly toward the targeted enemy, each dealing 50% of the weapon's base damage as magic damage. - **Full‑Cooldown Bonus:** When you land a hit with a fully cooled main‑hand attack, an additional magic sword is summoned. - **Off‑Hand Synergy:** While held in the off‑hand, any main‑hand sword (vanilla or Tinkers') that strikes a creature will automatically summon a magic sword to assist. - **Armor Penetration & Invincibility Frames:** Magic swords bypass armor and respect local invincibility frames to avoid chain‑resistance issues. - **Auto Device (Modifier):** 4× Redstone Repeater + Redstone Torch – Automatically strikes nearby hostile mobs when held in main hand. - *Inspired by Toram Online.* ### Requirements (1.12.2) - Minecraft 1.12.2 - Forge - Tinkers' Construct 2 - Mantle ## 1.20.1 Version (Forge) - **Circular Saw:** Rewritten with data‑driven parts; adds Sawing modifier, casting support. - **Throwing Knife:** Disposable ammunition (stacks to 16, short charge, sticks in blocks). - **Thermal Ray Modifier:** Fires a heat ray using liquid fuel; overheats after 10 shots. - **Magic Sword modifiers:** Control, Auto, Coop variants for different playstyles. **Requires:** Minecraft 1.20.1, Forge, Tinkers' Construct 3, Mantle, Json Things. > **Note:** Some content has been ported from the 1.12.2 version of **Tinkers' Gadgets** --- **License:** MIT (all versions).
