How to choose
Recycle_N_Reclaim breaks items down and returns their build materials, so mis-crafts and retired gear aren't wasted — especially handy for metal.
AutoRepair repairs your gear and tools automatically when near a workbench, removing the repeated repair click — a boon for late-game combat.
Trade-offs: want materials back → Recycle_N_Reclaim; want to skip manual repair → AutoRepair. They're complementary and run together. Watch the return-rate config on recycling so you don't break game balance.
