Loot Distribution for Filibuster Rhymes' Used Cars

Have you ever wanted to find a police lightbar in a crate? Maybe some spare wheels and a fender skirt for your amazing Corolla? Worry no more!
Introducing Loot Distribution for Filibuster Rhymes' Used Cars! With this mod the new vehicle items added by Filibuster in the animation update will now spawn around the world as loot.

This mod is somewhat balanced around the idea that it still is better and more reliable to search for vehicle parts in vehicles themselves. What this means is that Fili's new items will be rarer than vanilla items on a general basis.
It has been balanced so that you won't start finding Offroad Tires and Roll Cages everywhere.

How the mod goes about this is split into two main parts. It introduces some items as loot in containers and some items can actually spawn in vehicles.

Most of Filibuster Rhymes' new vehicle parts are introduced into the loot distribution of containers where it made sense.
Balance of those parts is made according to vanilla so if a Performance Tire is rarer than a Normal Tire in the base game, you can expect the same balance for Performance Offroad Tire and the Normal Offroad Tire introduced by Filibuster.
Tire variants introduced by Filibuster will also be generally rarer than vanilla counterparts for example. Some vehicle parts such as bumpers will have their rarity around vanilla values, decreasing according to tier (Stock, Performance and Custom).
These are just some examples of the type of balance done, the list is too big to detail here.


There is a small selection of items that can spawn in vehicle trunks. These are Trailer Hitches, Offroad Bumper Bars and Police Push Bars.
Trailer hitches spawn in heavy-duty vehicles and the bumper bars spawn in more approriate vehicles. The spawn chance is rare so don't expect to find a lot of bumper bars around.

Military vehicles have also received a present in the form of tires. Road and Offroad variants of military tires can spawn in the trunk of the respective vehicle.

In the base game there are some vehicle parts that do not exist in loot distribution tables. Of relevance to this mod are car doors, trunk doors and engine doors.
Since Filibuster's animation update added performance variants of trunk and engine doors, as well as new type of car doors, I've decided to create a sandbox option to activate the loot distribution of both vanilla and Filibuster's car doors.
These will not be a common spawn. In fact, they should be quite rare but still allow for the occasional spawn.

This is an optional sandbox option because some might prefer the base games' balance.

No reason why this would be incompatible with anything. It introduces the loot through code without overriding any existing containers. Should be compatible with about everything.
If you do find an incompatibility feel free to point it out in the Bug Reports discussion.

The mod does not have hard requirements because some might be using the Animation BETA and others might be using the ALPHA. Makes no difference to the mod.

Suffice it to say, you do have to be subscribed to one or the other, otherwise this is pointless.

Filibuster Rhymes for the patience and feedback about balancing the loot distribution, also the amazing cars mod that inspired this in the first place.
