Description
Lore and time friendly Umbrella's

Rep your favourite Gas station brolly or even your goto resturant brolly!

An umbrella makes a mighty fine spear weapon and gives you XP in the spear class!
An umbrella can keep you dry in the rain. No more having to use points for Outdoorsman!
An umbrella can be held in your secondary while you destroy z's with your weapon in your primary and keep a cold or flu at bay!
When foraging in the rain, using an umbrella will give you a weather effect reduction!


What you get:

30 umbrella's to suit the needs of any fashionista.
More to come?


Is it safe to be added to my current game?
Yes, it should be safe to be added mid save in MP and SP. (bare in mind loot respawn & already discovered cells)
Is it safe to be used with other mods?
Yes, it should not have any issues with another mod, tested with multiple QoL mods.

Most textures are used from the vanilla game with a few extra thrown in.

@Ashadar Re'souley Sorry I have been away/busy for most of the summer. You should have no difficulty finding them in bedroom wardrobes. If I get around to it then I may add something like garage containers or utility rooms or car trunks etc but sort of waiting for B42! Problem with increasing the spawn rate is they take over the spots of other items spawning.

lf only the umbrealla wasn't so rare, seemingly anyways i can never seem to find them which is odd because it's an object most people own at least one of and not something most people would think to grab in a zombie outbrake so it's a bit strange that they're so "rare".
Any chance you could make the mod boost the odds of them spawning?

@Puddings The use of an umbrella for sunlight would be something the Vampirism author would have to incorporate. If I did it then it would give non-users of that mod errors when using this mod due to the traits created in that mod.

Yeah I thought about the umbrella corp but wanted to keep this lore and time friendly (I know umbrella corp was founded in the 60's). I may still do though!

I may add another spawn such as the small closets next to front doors. Kept things vanilla as that's how I like the game, so the only adjustment to loot rarity is via the vanilla sandbox setting when creating a world.

I would just swap the extreme sunlight sensitivity trait for the sunlight sensitivity trait while wearing umbrellas and that would work perfectly. If you pick sunlight sensitivity trait and wear an umbrella then you get the minor sunlight sensitivity trait until you take off the umbrella or close it. If you pick the minor sunlight sensitivity trait and wear an umbrella you should just leave it as minor sunlight sensitivity. Idk if that's how it works in modding terms, but yeah something like that.

And loot settings like allowing us to adjust the rarity of umbrellas and where they spawn.

Btw nice mod. I haven't tried all the umbrellas yet, and so I wanted to ask did you add in the 'Umbrella Corporation' umbrella? Like this one: https://www.gamespot.com/a/uploads/original/mig/9/4/4/3/2279443-re6umbrella_57405_screen.jpg

@Puddings I will have a look at the vampirism mod to see what I can do. What loot settings, a specific setting for umbrella spawn?.

I was out in the sunlight with an umbrella and it didn't protect me :(
Puddings 6 May, 2024 @ 10:40pm 
Would it be possible to make this compatible with the vampirism mod by Sirc?
Puddings 6 May, 2024 @ 4:27pm 
What if you add a loot setting?

@Duchess Thanks. Yes it does pair nicely with Surviving the Storm.
Will be tweaking some designs soon (Batman umbrella is one that springs to mind) and adding a couple more umbrella's I missed off :)
