@ALIEN - because a zombie apocalypse should be about scary zombies, not everything disappearing magically.

why would you make this mod, the spawn rate is already of items ridiculous
especially ammo?- or axes and sledgehammers, silly..

is this compatible with Safehouse loot?

(but, it would take say 3-5 sachets of small vinegar, to make up normal vinegar or something)
pgames-food 27 Sep, 2024 @ 6:59pm 
maybe a mod can add in those tiny sachet packets of salt, pepper, and vinegar and ketchups that fast food places used to always have like macdonalds in the past (before they started charging for ketchups) :lunar2019piginablanket:

Agreed on the salt. Unless the infected eat salt or something, what the hell?

Salt and vinegar have abysmal drop rates, too, compared to reality. Seriously, on the default settings (rare), I have looted three entire restaurants, including two that served fries, and walked away with a single sachet of salt. Maybe worth addressing that, too?

Hey Peach, I love your mods. I just wanted to ask you, would this mod work with the current game version? And if not, do you plan to update this mod at all?

VHS only named VHS, is exactly like book named "book" Consider it just being a mere random entertainement object, it reduce boredom

maybe it was a blank empty vhs tape?
