Iron ploughs not durable enough

What it says in the title. Either make them more durable or make repairs take something other than iron. Otherwise, iron ploughs are just not worth it.

It can be argued that the base durability of the plow should be better -- I'm not sure yet. What is worth noting, however, is that better quality iron will make them more durable.

A plough made with quality 55 iron can't even make two screens worth of a single-wide path. Consider it argued that ploughs should be more durable.

Where are you people getting the iron? It's not like there's any mines, are there?

Quality 55, indeed. Thanks for finding that bug. It was not intended that metals be that good right from the start. :)

But yeah, I'll put in a durability upgrade for the plough while I'm at it. :)

On the bright side, we can still make Stone axe Quality: 32 with the Stone Quality: 55 that i stored up Image
You see a masterful engraving by Blaze. On it is Blaze, bears, boars, and foxes. Blaze is striking down the bears. The boars are screaming. The foxes are in a fetal position. The image relates to the return of Blaze in the late winter of 2009.
