Fish Hooks #9

The change I made to fish hooks got me thinking.

Why do we even need all those fish hook types & their associated recipes? All the fish hooks are functionally identical - so they could be reduced to just 'Bone Fish Hook' & 'Metal Fish Hook'.

Going further, smelting ore to craft fish hooks seems excessive, the vanilla Wire item would seem like a much more suitable material to craft them out of (e.g. Wire + Pliers = 5 fish hooks).

For my own mod, I added bone fish hooks but they need to be crafted out of wish bones - forcing the player to trap birds if they want to craft them. I also restricted them to birds with higher hunger reduction (to simulate wish bones in small birds being too small), although in HC that could be changed to certain types of bird, e.g. chickens & ducks).

I would even go Further "Fish Hook" and in the same "Arrowhead" would be fine. They all do the same and do not change the fishing rod or the arrows so why multible items?

Done.

I've removed the need to learn the recipes, and there's probably a magazine/book somewhere that still has the old recipes.

I think HC_Fishing.txt can probably be removed now - unless you want to keep the fish ponds that let you fish anywhere (was never a fan, but you're the boss. :D )

I was thinking to reduce the pond to growing bait fish. Its quite unrealistic to grow full size fishes in a pond that size. Specially without feeding them tons of Supplements and air injectors...

That way people could still use it for some decoration (i like the pond since it is more "unique" then some cans with different labels)
