Description
NEW: Added backpacks to vendor lists and modified their chances of appearing.

---Better Backpacks---

In the base game, backpacks except for the traders backpack which are quite hard to find would not allow the stacking of objects meaning in a large backpack you could only fit 3 building materials.

This made the start of the game rather tedious and made it so a lot of people skimped on the backpacks, I needed to change this for my own sanity and now I release it for yours too.

Bag's cost more, have less space but all come with the ability to stack 10 items. except thieving bags.. I think that would be too OP.

Details are as follows.

Small Backpack
Stacks: 10
Size: 6x6
Value: 3000

Medium Backpack
Stacks: 10
Size: 12x12
Value: 5000

Large Backpack
Stacks: 10
Size: 24x18
Value: 8000

Scavengers Basket
Stacks: 10
Size: 5x5
Value: 250

Shopkeeper's Goods Bag
Stacks: 24
Size: 20x20
Value: 15000

Shopkeeper's Backpack
Stacks: 24
Size: 19x19
Value: 14000

Traders Backpack Large
Stacks: 10
Size: 15x13
Value: 6000

Traders Backpack Medium
Stacks: 10
Size: 12x10
Value: 4000

Traders Wooden Backpack
Stacks: 10
Size: 12x12
Value: 1200

Wooden Backpack
Stacks: 10
Size: 8x8
Value: 800

---Thieves Bags---

Thieves bags do not allow stacking, take what you can.. give nothing back. that said the point of the bags is that they do not offer any stat redunctions like the other bags do.

Small Thieves Backpack
Stacks: Doesn't
Size: 6x6
Value: 600(was 3000)

Thieves Backpack
Stacks: Doesn't
Size: 12x12
Value: 970(was 5000!)


As always thanks for checking out my mod, please leave a thumbs up and a comment, especially if you find any bugs. :) Safe travels!.

Just posted an update so the bags show up more in the world.

@Mighty Mozenrath - Sorry I'm only just responding I never got a notification of your comment!.

The mod just changes the values of the already in-game backpacks and bags.

I'm homeless right now and originally got the idea whilst caving, hence the picture is of my little brother telling me he'll carry that bag through the cave and me laughing at him.

It is for the most part a simple mod, anything that edits the base game bags or removes them would affect this, meaning also that this would not affect custom bags that had their own ID/config files.

Love your mod idea.

I went into my FCS and updated all my backpacks to hold more and stack multiple items. Also added them to all bars and other vendors.

Less compatibility issues and too many mods out there that do nothing or very little.

Wish other modders had as helpful mod as you put up. Would love to see detailed instructions on how the mod is made to help other players avoid too many mods. Kenshi seems to bog down with too many mods.

I don’t have the graphics skills, so I love Mopsisgone, Trinity, and others that make unique characters. These are the mods I subscribe to.
