Did this happen? i like Arek\_PL’s idea. Trench warfare is still happening and although these things would break I love the idea of a light streamlined kit.

That’s one _hell_ of a necropost - makes me miss pisskop, PK’s rebalance was fun back in the day.

As to your question, yes, entrenching tools have level 1 food cooking, so it’ll cook a lot of basic recipes, but isn’t as good as a proper, real pan. Highly recommend using the [Hitchhikers Guide to the Cataclysm](https://nornagon.github.io/cdda-guide/#/item/e_tool) if you’re curious about an items current properties. Just remember to select the game version your using at the bottom, stable and experimental are pretty different most of the time.
