Polytool

The Polytool is an all-in-one tool that combines an axe, pickaxe, shovel and sword and that can be upgraded with elements to add effects or to alter the tool speeds.

Crafting
The Polytool is crafted by placing a 4 full stacks of Carbon Nanotubes into the Chemical Synthesis Machine configured so that the top-center, left-center, right-center, and bottom-center slots each have a full stack.

Usage


The Polytool is used in the same way as any Minecraft tool: left-click is used to attack, chop, dig, and mine, and right-click opens the configuration GUI.

While in the configuration GUI, you can place a full stack of an element (64 atoms) in the upper-left slot to upgrade the tool with that element and apply its effects; however, there is no way to remove elements from the tool once they're applied. All active elements are shown revolving around the Polytool in the GUI.

Tool Modifiers
Without any modifications, the Polytool has +8 Attack Damage, and 8 speed points each for the pickaxe (which tracks two separate statistics for ore mining and stone mining speeds), shovel, and axe functionalities. The following table lists the damage and speed modifiers for each of the relevant elements. No stat can be lowered below 2 points.

Special Effects
In addition to tool modifiers above, some elements add special effects to the Polytool. The table below lists all effects as of version 5.0.5.
