Scavenger Skill

Description
WARNING: THIS MOD IS UNDER ACTIVE DEVELOPMENT. NON-ESSENTIAL UPDATES WILL BE ON SATURDAYS.
If you use this mod in an existing game, you might have some of your containers that you have already looted spawn "Extra" loot. This is not an issue with new games.

41.66 and 41.67 have broken some parts of this mod in multiplayer. If you succeed at scavenging, you have to move items to the ground first before picking them up or they will vanish. This is an issue with Zomboid and its new half baked "Anti-Cheat".

Scavenger Skill
Adds a new Passive Skill called Scavenging. As you loot containers and this skill gives you a chance to find more loot. The higher your skill, the bigger the chance, and the greater the loot amount. These extra loot chances are increased with lucky, and decreased with unlucky!

When it triggers, this skill seems to duplicate a randomly selected item in a container. So, for example, instead of getting one or two new books in a bookshelf, you get additional copies of one of the books already present. It'd be nice if it instead generated loot using the same random loot table the container normally uses.

Also, if loot respawn in on, does the skill roll again when the loot respawns?

Also also, does the skill roll separately for each player on a server?

Foraging is going out and looking for stuff on the ground, this is more like looking through bins and finding a use for previously useless junk. It's basically more loot as a skill.

When do new chances for this skill to work on the same area? is it setup to to have another chance of extra loot when the normal container would refresh loot?
