I'm about 20 days into a play-through and I have a box full of parts, I could sell them but it would be more immersive if I had to use them to build other things.
I'm sure they could be added into lots of recipes.
Blade traps would also need machete, steel tool & robotic parts. Dart traps: machine-gun, rifle & pistol
Electric posts: baton parts, Tripwire : bow parts, Wire relay: Spear parts.
I'm not a modder but if any out there want to try - it would be appreciated
