Neolithic Frankenpatch

This mod is a big pack of XML patches that aim to integrate a number of neolithic-era mods with each other in a smooth and balanced manner.

• Integration: where different mods add mechanics that seem like they should interact with each other, make it so
  
• Consolidation: where multiple mods add different takes on the same concept, remove one or the other or merge them together to avoid duplicates
  
• Balance: where multiple mods add related content (eg. apparel), one should not be outright mechanically better than the other such that there's no reason to ever make/use the less good option
  
• Availability: items and mechanics that seem like they should be available at a neolithic tech level should not be gated behind non-neolithic requirements
  
• Plausibility: mechanics should not break suspension of disbelief

For a full list of patches by function, see this discussion page.

Most patches revolve around having Vanilla Factions Expanded - Tribals and/or Primitive Workbenches as a base, but none of the patched mods are required. I don't recommend running this mod with none of the below mods, but theoretically it should work with any subset of the below.

In practice, I have not tested all possible combinations (that's a lot of combinations), so let me know if a combination does not work as expected.
