Immersive Cars: Parts Picked

Description
Sick of all the cars in Project Zomboid being in near perfect condition despite the game taking place during an apocalypse? Sure it makes sense to have cars be still running if you start your game day one of the outbreak but for all the players out there running mods that are designed to simulate 10, 25 or 50 years passed the initial outbreak it makes no sense that cars 1. Have gas and 2. Be working perfectly as if they have not been sitting around for many many years

Even with all the vanilla setting set to the very worst condition possible you can still find cars that are in near perfect shape so I created this addon for not only a more realistic experience with cars but a more rewarding one since getting a car to run now can be made to be much much harder.

The following parts have a chance of not spawning on cars:
Battery
Doors
Windows
Brakes
Suspension
Tires (Tires will also most likely be quite deflated and need to be pumped once found)
Trunk Doors
Hoods
Seats

The engine also has a chance of it's condition being reduced to 0 to simulate it being "missing"
Settings can be placed to ensure that batteries in the car are dead and will need to be charged with a car battery charger before they will be able to be used.

In addition, All gas can be removed from gas tanks requiring players to find an alternative source of gas (for best effect I recommend downloading an addon that allows players to craft biofuel of some kind)

===========

Known issues:
Trunk doors with lights on them can be removed by the mod without removing or destroying the lights

===========

Future features:
Allow all parts to be installed on all cars at a performance or condition degradation penalty
Fix the afformentioned issues above

===========

F.A.Q

I do not know of any incompatible mods. Please comment if you find one.

Yes it works in Multiplayer.

===========

You can add this mod to collections if you want to with my blessing.

@hilvon that was fixed a long time ago, I'm not sure why you're still encountering it.

Hi. On your image thumbnail I notide a problem that I also had with "Time Worsen car condition" in B41. You can have a situation when a door is removed and window isn't. Would be nice to account for that... Getting a reference to window part for a door is not too hard...

The reason I think this is important - if you use Vanilla Vehicles Animated and the door is missing - the game will not load bones required to animate the door. And as such will not be able to position the window correctly. Not game breaking. Just looks really bad if that happens.

@Dr. Quackers M.D. If you're using this mod but still setting your game up like it's only been a week from infection the issue is that you don't know who the mod is for, a great deal of players play on servers that aim to simulate years after the knox event where scarcity is the main game play drive. If you're looking for something that makes more sense thematically with game settings the more closely represent the vanilla game I would recommend using my mod for car decay rather than this one.

it would make sense if there were other cars used by npcs but there is not so now a week after the infection starts your wondering what happened to all the car parts cause its only been a week, just creates another hole and thats where did all the car parts go and what were they used for.

So it turns out it was bugged and I had a different version running than was uploaded *facepalm me* I will be shortly uploading the fixed version.... *head desk*

@flowergirl_Amber The weird thing is I never had this issue so I can only assume it was a mod conflict. That being said I have not tried it in some time I will try again soon as I want to play zomboid again soon.

Did anyone ever find out why all engines are at 0% even when u turn off the chance in the settings????
Yasone 13 Aug, 2024 @ 1:09am 
not sure what causes the issue but the engines all have 0% no matter what when affected by this. could simply be an incompatibility or a specific issue with this mod just putting my issue here so its known

@Doom Girl No worries, still a really great mod.
