With the debut of the Contraptions dlc we have been given a way to manufacture ammunition. However this requires fertilizer as the propellant, making fertilizer all the more valuable. I realize that brahmin in settlements slowly generate fertilizer and that there are mods out there that let you compost your crops into fertilizer, but I would like to see another alternative. I think that the outhouses from the Wasteland Workshop dlc could also be used to generate fertilizer. For example you place one in your settlement and it generates 1 fertilizer for every 2 settlers you have in that settlement per day.

Well that was fast. I honestly didn't expect anyone to have mods for the dlc that quickly. Thanks

I'm glad to see that I am not the only one who would like to see this. I posted a similar request here https://forums.nexusmods.com/index.php?/topic/3810415-automatic-scrapping-of-unused-weapons-and-apparel/. In addition to breaking down your junk items I think it should be able to break down any unused weapons/armor/clothing you put into it. Also I think it should be affected by the scrapper perk. Once you unlock a level in the scrapper perk it should unlock a choice on the computer console connected to the scrapping machine. This way you do not lose out on getting the extra materials that you would get by scrapping them manually.

With the release of the Contraptions dlc with it's manufacturing section I think a new machine that does this would fit in perfectly. Input all of your junk and unused clothing/armors/weapons and it breaks them down into their base components.

Are you one of those people who cannot help looting every weapon and piece clothing they see? If so you usually end up with a lot of items you do not need in your settlement inventories. Now you can get rid of these items by simply scrapping them in the corresponding workbench or simply tossing them on the ground and scrapping them. This however can get a bit tedious. I propose a simple mod that creates a trash can or a recycling bin that you can throw your unwanted weapons, armor and apparel into, once inside they are automatically scrapped down into usable materials.
