How to get Tongs? #82

Describe the bug

I'm using Hydrocraft b41 Continued with stable on a dedicated server: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2778991696

I'm trying to complete this recipe: http://undeniable.info/pz/wiki/recipe.php?ID=1795

We've been to all industrial storage and food-related / restaurant-related places in Muldraugh and Rosewood, and can't find "Tongs" http://undeniable.info/pz/wiki/item.php?Name=Tongs

We can find kitchen tongs.

We can make wooden tongs.

We can't make or find just regular Tongs.

There's a recipe to make Tongs in Hydrocraft, but the recipe requires an iron anvil, which requires (iron) Tongs! See http://undeniable.info/pz/wiki/recipe.php?ID=840

It seems we're in a catch-22, because we can't make what we need without an infinite recipe "cycle", that can only be broken by looting regular tongs from something.

However, we can't find regular tongs anywhere, only kitchen tongs.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Go to every place on the map
  2. Look for tongs
  3. Fail to find any
  4. Inability to progress through the iron tech tree

Expected behavior Tongs should exist in loot tables so we can pick them up and use them in required recipes to tech up, OR the Iron Anvil should be modified with an alternative recipe to accept wooden tongs when building it.

Found them, they're just extremely rare. (They were in a school's supply closet.)
