Upgrade Mod

This mod allows upgrades to most (decent) vanilla weapons down three different upgrade paths, depending on what the player wants to improve.

-Melee Weapons-

Power
Upgrading the Power of a weapon will very slightly boost it's critical damage and significantly boost it's base damage.
Good for difficulties with multi-hit turned off, difficulties with tankier zombies, PvP, or players who find they often have lots of debuffs and injuries.

Efficiency
Upgrading the efficiency of a melee weapon will vastly increase it's critical strike chance and increase it's multi-hit by 1 (e.g. if a weapon usually hits 2 zombies at once, it will now hit 3 instead).
Good for areas or difficulties with lots of zombies.

Quality
Upgrading the quality of an item will slightly increase it's damage and critical strike chance, and vastly improve it's durability.
Good for people who don't like constantly scavenging for new weapons or for weapons that break quickly.

-Firearms-

Power
Upgrading the power of a gun will boost it's damage output and it's stopping power; if it fails to kill the target, it will likely knock them off their feet instead.
Good for weapons that do little damage or weapons that have large bullet spreads.

Accuracy
Upgrading the accuracy of a gun will make it slightly more accurate and give it a slightly higher fire rate.
Good for guns that have a bad fire rate or for players with little to no aiming skill.

Quality
Upgrading the quality of a gun will significantly improve it's durability, make it significantly less likely to jam, and on most guns, it will suppress them too (Shotguns and revolvers cannot be suppressed, and get a small boost to damage and accuracy instead).
Good when you need to use a gun, but don't want to attract anymore zombies over.

-The Workstations-
To make these upgrades, players will need to first make a workbench using various tools, planks, and pieces of metal.
To upgrade more advanced and complicated weapons (e.g. Firearms or rare melee weapons like the machete or katana), players will need to further upgrade the workbench by making a workbench extension.
Binding, Reinforcements, Blades, and Gun Parts are all items you need to make upgrades, and you can make them using materials found around towns.

-Other-
This mod has recently undergone an overhaul and is now completely different. For players who already have the old mod on a save file, or for players who just prefer the old version, it's still able to be used under the submod called "Upgrade Old" that you will also get from installing this mod.
However, I recommend for those who aren't already using the old mod to use this new one instead, because the old one is very unbalanced and VERY unpolished and buggy.
It also comes with a traits mod that adds a few "upgrades" of already existing vanilla traits which is sepperate and optional.
