Great mod! Could you possibly lower the weight of the sugar cubes though? 0.6 per cube seems a bit excessive haha

Spent 4hrs breaking into a military facility and found nothing but these rations in the locked/blocked off rooms in several locations...

Thanks for the lifetime supply of suck. :bleach:

I just had an idea but I am coding illiterate so ill say it here.
it would be cool if you could put the rations in boxes.
12 c-ration cartons per case, two rows of six (source google)
12 complete k-rations per fiberboard box (source google)

and perhaps a recipe to make them, the early ones were contracted out to just about anyone who could provide components so maybe we could make something close enough.
Sorry for my bad spelling.

@Velvet just change the spawn settings.

Lets get this onto a tray
BlackWater821 24 May, 2024 @ 3:22am 
When i set the drop chance lower than 1% such as 0.xx, it revert back to 1% as minimum.
Velvet 28 Apr, 2024 @ 10:15pm 
Just a suggestion, but it would make a lot more sense if these were more restricted, only appearing in places like survivor houses and the like, or at least if the K-ration was. The K-ration was discontinued at the end of WWII, while the C-ration was replaced with the MCI in 1958. The MCI was so similar to the C-ration that it was commonly called that by the troops, though.

Obviously, if you know where to look you can still get your hands on old rations even today, but I don't think the military could be expected to have any K-rations left, and by 1993 even the MCI would probably be relegated to mainly military surplus vendors, enthusiasts, and maybe camping stores.

It would be cool if they also contained cigarettes

i didnt have that when i check only turn on off pawn in zombies

@aquelarrefox

C-Ration M-Unit Rolls, C-Ration B-Unit Rolls, and K-Ration Rolls are all sandbox options to define the loot chance on zombies. It's not "chance" per se, but the higher the number, the higher the chance it'll spawn on zombies
aquelarrefox 24 Feb, 2024 @ 11:41am 
i only have option to turn off not a chance option
Arendameth  [author] 23 Feb, 2024 @ 11:57pm 
There's already a sandbox option to configure the drop loot chance on zombies. You guys can configure it the way you like :)
Quilava 23 Feb, 2024 @ 9:47pm 
If you ever consider changing the loot drop cause ppl keep saying it too low or too high, DONT, i have a better solution, make into into 2 sub mod, 1 low drop and 1 high drop, everybody win :)
aquelarrefox 19 Feb, 2024 @ 2:46pm 
reduce the chance on zombi loot i have 1 per 30 zombies its too high
Výn 11 Feb, 2024 @ 5:05pm 
Looks like its working fine now. Thx for the fix. Great work, my dude

@SilverDragon99

I currently have no plans for additional items to add, although if you have certain ideas, feel free to write them down in detail and I'll consider them :)
SilverDragon99 8 Feb, 2024 @ 12:30pm 
Will there be different M and B Units for the C Rations and different K Rations in the future? Since there's only the Beef Stew and the Pork Loaf now
Arendameth  [author] 6 Feb, 2024 @ 11:40am 
Hello! The error should be fixed now. My apologies for the inconvenience :)
Výn 4 Feb, 2024 @ 3:21am 
Yeah, i removed the mod from my server and the error of the Foraging Box (investigation area) are gone.
Výn 4 Feb, 2024 @ 3:09am 
Same problema as Pjoter. When I hover my mouse over the Foraging box, It gives tons of errors and dont show the rarity of the items in the area.
Arendameth  [author] 2 Feb, 2024 @ 12:11pm 
@Pjoter_Kawaler can you please send the error?
Pjoter_Kawaler 2 Feb, 2024 @ 11:59am 
Great mod but i found that if you hoover coursor over foraging miniature and you are not in urban area, for example deep forest there is massive error counter in right corner of the screen.
Quilava 1 Feb, 2024 @ 5:25pm 
Another mod that help me survive just by killing zombie and not farming/fishing/hunting, very stonk :steamthumbsup:

Bunbun 1 Feb, 2024 @ 4:05pm 
Just wanted to say thanks for the update. Amazing mod!
Arendameth  [author] 1 Feb, 2024 @ 3:45am 
Hello! Thanks for the feedback everyone. I'll work on a sandbox option to toggle zombie drop loot/change the drop rate. It's worth noting that this will take effect only when restarting the game (or server if MP). Using a third party mod like Change Sandbox Options would most likely be needed to be able to change the mod's options mid solo game.

@invader
Unfortunately that thing shouldn't be added to game options since drop loot needs to be configured server-side and not client-side if it happens to be activated in servers. Like I said above, it's helpful if you install a third party mod to change the sandbox options.

I will most likely push an update today :)

I'll test the drop rate. My character consumes an insane amount of calories, I use the Cal Burn mod and run around a lot. If worse comes to worst, I'll just increase how many cals I burn.
I think nomads appreciate MRE mods more because sometimes you camp in a random building for a couple nights and can't cook. If you carry a tent around, then you probably want MREs.
Bunbun 31 Jan, 2024 @ 1:25am 
Agreed the drop rate is a bit high. Like the mod but would feel better and more rewarding if it was 1 in 20 chance to get one of these rations. Just my feedback. Great mod overall and great job!
Invader 30 Jan, 2024 @ 1:30pm 
I was just testing this mod and it looks really nice. Although it seems like the drop rate on the infected corpses is way too high. I just killed a group of 10 and i got like 3-4 cans from them. Probably would be best to leave these as only container (probably military only if that fits better) loot rather than zombie loot.

I may turn off the mod for now since the drop rate is too high and makes the game a lot easier. May i suggest as feedback a game option (not sandbox setting) to turn off the drops from the infected corpses it could solve this issue a lot easier.

mmm hardtacks!! i love eating rocks!! :steamhappy:

@Daisy
Thanks for reporting the issue! I just pushed an update which fixes the issue :)
Daisy 30 Jan, 2024 @ 6:58am 
Warming up a mug of coffee in the oven makes it vanish as soon as it's done cooking
Grim County 29 Jan, 2024 @ 6:37am 
Nice!
Cyanide MG 27 Jan, 2024 @ 1:29pm 
Gimme, please ! There's no such thing as too much MRE's, and yes, Steve also agrees. :D
Now, let's get this out on a tray.
