Functional Computer [B42] [Beta]

Description
Beta release of the Functional Computer Mod.




Will have unexpected visual bugs for users playing on a higher Font Size than 16px at present. Not designed for small resolutions.




Allows users to find Floppy Disks and use them on computers via the right-click context menu.

Floppy Disks have the possibility of spawning with Viruses that can infect your other Floppy Disks. Floppy Disks can be encrypted and decrypted with a password.
The contents of a Floppy Disk can be copied over to an Empty Floppy Disk.
Player's with Electrical 4 can run a Virus Detection scan, Electrical 7 can attempt to Remove Viruses, Electrical 10 allows the Writing of Viruses and Recovery of Corrupted Files.

Works in both single and multiplayer, and can be added mid-run without interference, although Floppy Disks won't spawn in already visited areas.

Originally created for Wasteland RP Server.[wastelandrp.net] on B41 and ported over.
Utilises the GravyUI API with the express permission of the creator.
Floppy Disk model made by robotic05.
Computer border made by moe.

This is perfect to combine with openttd, playing a game within a game to help pass time at the farm or something lol

It'd be great if this could be connected to a printer. The Technology to make posters with PC's was still relatively new by 1993.
It could allow you to craft slightly smaller items like the vanilla Posters. It'd justify post-apocalyptic aesthetics like tribal seals, warning signs, "Fuck Off", "Fuck You!", "[Insert Loot] Here", "Trespassers Will Be Shot On Sight", "HELP!" posters, posters of the map markers, & posters of single alphabetical letters.
The World Wide Web browsers like "WorldWideWeb" (1990, renamed to Nexus 2 years after Zomboid), & Mosaic (1993, released just 2 months before the outbreak) had only just made the internet accessible for consumers. Windows had been released in the 80's.
It'd be interesting to see references or even an attempt to try & preserve some local Knox County internet that can act as a server chatroom. You could also make 'Server Chassis' & 'Cat3 Ethernet Cables' to connect & store a LAN across your base that acts as a message board for your group.

*cough* Would you please create the internet in PZ? So during multiplayer I can download new pr0n and realistically upload my selfies to get clicks and likes of degenerate rando's to feel better about myself? And while you are at it, add an extensive catalogue of ROM hacks and GPS trackers, HAM radio's and the customary skill level to replace the electrical skill i.e. similar to the sims? And offcourse when that's done please add online datingsims and visual novels, and give us the option to choose our desktop backgorunds. Lol. (Some people AIR?)

would you be willing to? or kmow someone who would be willing to? make it so the laptop mod, can be used with pzlinux and zbay. even make it so you can install the laptop in your vehicle like players can gps mod. its not so strange cop cars have a onboard pc, a ham cb radio etc. you couuld even make cellphones have use, by using them to shop on pzlinxu or zbay. players getting there own bank card to use at atms is also a must.
