How are you at 3DEN modules? Something like your mod but as an editor module would be great for exploding objects and perhaps even for vehicle cookoff too (for those of us who don't want to use ACE). Thanks for your work, we all enjoy the fruits of your labor !

Will there be CUP map compatibility?

Following up. We've played for a few days and it seems pretty okay now.

I'll try to adjust the damage values, trying to find the border between "enough damage to kick off" and "too sensitive" is difficult as I can only guess at the 'health level' for these items. Thanks for the feedback!

I feel like the cargo net fuel containers are too sensitive. If they take a one meter drop, they immediately catch fire and explode. Sometimes, the larger Huron containers also have the same issue which is an issue because those are meant to be sling loaded and dropped.

Can someone confirm MP lag has been fixed?

A bugfix has been posted, please let me know if this fixes things or if the errors still persist
Wenza  [author] 20 Jul, 2024 @ 2:31am 
I'll try to look into these errors soon. Thanks for the bug reports!

Can confirm, when you load just this mod and put down a Metal Barrel in 3den, then shoot it:
1: No error or lag in Singleplayer
2: Massive lag in Multiplayer and Error: '|#|' Error Local variable in global space

getting error local variable in global when a fuel container cooks off
L33KyBa6Z 16 Jan, 2024 @ 3:42pm 
when can we expect to see said plans ?
huh 6 Oct, 2023 @ 6:54am 
does shooting it continuously increase its chance of exploding/accelerate it?
Wenza  [author] 1 Oct, 2023 @ 10:25pm 
@Antonoid
No, I have other plans for those objects :)
Antonoid 19 Sep, 2023 @ 6:07am 
Do you plan on adding vanilla gas cylinder and fuel canister to this?
EO 24 Aug, 2023 @ 9:54pm 
Cool idea.
Phenosi 21 Aug, 2023 @ 4:47am 
@Cpt N.Angevin alright, thanks for testing this.
sankara 20 Aug, 2023 @ 9:14pm 
didnt feel the effetc. so any integer number between zero and five sec, right? shouldn't something like 8 or 10 add some dramatique cookoff time, and still float around 5?
Wenza  [author] 20 Aug, 2023 @ 8:19pm 
@sankara
It already has an element of random time before exploding, after the initial fire build up. 'sleep random 5;' is used. I don't want the barrels exploding instantly, the whole point was to create a 'cookoff' effect.

@marxman28
I may potentially look at doing fuel trucks in the future, however with all the different major mods out there (RHS, CUP etc) that also have fuel trucks it would be a pain in the ass to configure the eventHandler for all of them, so not planning on it right now.
marxman28 20 Aug, 2023 @ 5:10pm 
Any consideration into making fuel trucks similarly more explosive?
sankara 20 Aug, 2023 @ 3:20pm 
nice! any chance for the cook off time have some randomness? you could also have danger because you never know when they actually explode, maybe in a instant, or more cases?
ANZACSAS Steven 20 Aug, 2023 @ 7:16am 
Nice idea.Shouls have been like this by default.:steamthumbsup:
Cpt N.Angevin 20 Aug, 2023 @ 6:29am 
@Phenosi,I tried and apparently it has to be spawned in the editor/Zeus.
Phenosi 20 Aug, 2023 @ 6:14am 
Does this work on already placed on objects on the terrain or only 3DEN spawned objects.
Wenza  [author] 14 Aug, 2023 @ 8:24pm 
@dvd.brewster
No, you need it on server and client. Unless it is explicitly specified, this is how 99.99% of mods operate - both server and client will require the mod.
dvd.brewster 14 Aug, 2023 @ 2:45pm 
so not needed on client?
MADRAT 14 Aug, 2023 @ 12:01pm 
ok roger that, thanks.
Wenza  [author] 14 Aug, 2023 @ 9:33am 
@MADRAT
This doesn't add any new items, it modifies the existing barrels and fuel containers. See the classnames above in the description, or just type in "barrel" or "fuel" into the asset browser search bar

@dvd.brewster
I've done some testing in multiplayer and it worked fine, I would still appreciate any further testing and feedback though
MADRAT 14 Aug, 2023 @ 9:27am 
hey, i cant find them, where are they ?
dvd.brewster 14 Aug, 2023 @ 6:48am 
Have you Installed this on a dedi server yet?
