Tools

Tools are a group of items that are used by the player when performing non-combat tasks in the standard gameplay of Core Keeper, which can include activities such as mining, fishing, digging, and more. Most tools are able to be used simply by having one actively selected in the hotbar and by using the highlighted tile(s) cue, to indicate where the action done by the tool will take place.

Most types of tools suffer durability loss with prolonged use, so they require either being periodically replaced, or repaired (which is cheaper). Tools can also be reinforced to greatly increase their durability and slightly augment their stats.
