The Repair Tool is a tool item that was added in the V0.53 update of The Forest.
Gameplay[]
The repair tool is a tool is used for repairing buildings and was a replacement for using sap.
It is also very useful as a tool for clearing bush and collecting sticks from small trees as it swings very quickly, requires no stamina, and can be used while sprinting.
It currently deals no damage to other players in multiplayer.
Aside from its proper use, it can be used to kill birds. (This is useful when birds land on your buildings because the repair tool can't damage the structure beneath the bird.)
It does no damage to cannibals or mutants.
The repair tool has slightly less range than the machete. It is often preferred over the machete as it doesn’t use any stamina and you can harvest more leaves.
When you make the repair tool, It stops the player from accidentally using sap to repair structures.
