This mod is broken in its current state. I can't dismantle electronics, place floor tiles or stack logs

This is a bug-report. I just spend 2 hours to find out why the 'build' option in the right click menu didn´t exist anymore. it´s this mod for some reason.

Build 41 released

It sure does. I have zero plans to update this anytime in the near future. At least until a more stable build comes out. As for the time being I believe another user has forked this mod to a working state, the link is here https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2606740327

Confirmed, this mod breaks carpentry completely. I went through all my mods to find out this mod is broken with the newest 41. update. Like this mod since metal items are too weak in this game.

I had the same thing happen to me with this mod. Had to uninstall it (or lose carpentry and picking up furniture!)

Friendly heads up! Since the recent 41.42 update this mod is (at least for me personally) breaking the game. I lose the ability to cut trees down via right-clicking as well as the ability to barricade windows/doors.
I've tested this mod both alone with no other mods as well as with my usual list of mods and in both tests the above said options disappear.

I totally understand if you can't update the mod with every IWBUMS update, but this issue is definitely game breaking, which makes me so sad, I've really fallen in love with your mod! it never made sense to me how weak and breakable steel/metal objects were. Regardless, thank you for making this mod!

@Evam, Thank you for the reminder. Mod has been updated with a fix to hopefully address the crowbar issue, let me know if you encounter any other issues. Enjoy.

This mod seems nice but I hope the crowbar issue can be fixed soon

@XPGLD, I fixed the crowbar issue, mate. Looks like the game can't handle such big ConditionMax values, as other very durable weapons like Barbells also suffer from the onload broken state.

Just change the values of those very durable items from

ConditionLowerChanceOneIn = 50,
ConditionMax = 250,

to

ConditionLowerChanceOneIn = 125,
ConditionMax = 100,

The items will no longer break on load and due to break chance change the effective durability will remain the same

Interesting. I will look into the crowbar issue, I noticed it myself also. Truthfully guys I'm a modder in the absolute lightest sense of that term. I made this mod because it's my preference when fooling around in SP while waiting for MP, and also as a bit of a hold me over until someone with more knowledge than myself is able to create a mod that integrates in a more eloquent way with other mods.

I just figured if I could share it with others who want a one click solution to weapon durability in game. I get that weapons breaking is a way to add difficulty to the game but at the same time, I've had the same steel hammer for close to a decade. And it's done much more strenuous things than smashing a few hundred zombie heads =)

Thanks for looking

Have my upvote, but the worry of compatibility issues worrys me about using it, since I do use mods that do affect weapon stats, like the more traits mod with traits like "Gordanite" witch makes the crowbar last twice as long and the damage is doubled. Sometimes that mod works for me, sometimes not, like the crowbar will get no model and will become one handed.

@TingTings_ Same here!

This mod is good, but the crowbar is always broken when i come out and come in. can you fix it?
XPGLD  [author] 20 May, 2020 @ 1:22pm 
I would imagine this mod will conflict with any other mod that also changes that file directly but have not tested. I have a fairly limited knowledge of modding this game and how I would go about implementing these changes in a less invasive way.

I do know that it works fine with weapon texture mods, such as ROTFLOL's wonderful red crowbar.
Max Dickings 20 May, 2020 @ 12:44pm 
Finally! I always thought it was weird to be able to break a CROWBAR of all things.

However, I see that the mod is based on items_weapons.txt, will this have compatibility issues with any other mods that use it?

Genuinely don't know just asking. Thanks!
