The closest thing I've had happen to me, was I was using this mod with Lynch's better zombie outfits, and for some reason found a riot zombie with survivor loot in his bag instead of the riot police stuff he was suppose to have. canned food, fresh food, etc, like the stuff that spawns in this mod's zombie bags

Odd. Have never had that before. Were you using a hord mod or anything like that? That is the only time I've seen this occur.

so a glitch happened and for around 5 minutes every zombie was carrying a large backpack with hella items in it

No way.. thanks SO much Handlebar! You're awesome! I'll test it out soon

That mod makes outfit zombies spawn, or more enhanced looking zombies spawn. I do not see this conflicting with my mod.

Hi!
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3497621695
I would like to ask if this mod will be compatible with yours? It's just that I understand that your mod adds random zombies in the form of deceased survivors, and the mod on the link allows you to make more zombies from special services and the army.

@Doe,
Updated, now able to max probably at 100.

@Doe, I think I capped it, but I can just as easliy uncap it. Let me look at now, if I can, I will push an update

Hey- I'm sorry to ask, since your mod is already complete and perfect on it's own, but is there any way to up the spawn chance cap higher than 5.0? I've been wanting to use this mod for my 10 years later runs, but I really want more common survivor zombies, and even with this on max it's not as common as I'd prefer. I'd love to have my world feel like many of the remaining zombies are survivors post-outbreak, but it's hard to achieve that feeling even with mods.. unless I haven't found the right mod, but yours and Lych's zed outfits is the closest I've come. If that's just not something you can do, or something you don't want to do, I understand- I just wanted to ask just in case! Thank you for this amazing mod, and your other wonderful ones too!

I'm very glad to hear it 💗

Yeah. Not going anywhere. I love this game. I follow news on it daily; and play a couple times a week on my long run character.

We can wait bro, I was just making sure you were still around tbh as I was doing a huge clean up of my 800+ subscribed mods😅

@garfield, that is exactly the reason I've yet to update. :D. Our 7 month survival saves are worth way more than trying to get into the "test" branch. I also am not sure if all the weapons packs are the same and updated for B42.

@Handlebar if you end up doing that, consider making a seperate mod on the workshop as a testing branch! it's very possible you might end up fucking over saves if you update this mod somehow

I know it. Waiting on B42 Update. Honestly I may try to port my mods over this weekend. Let you guys tell me if it is working well on 42.

would love an update, take your time <3

Currently it does not, it may be easy to do, I was hoping to have MP released before I updated.

Does it word on b42?

That is correct, the Alice, The Hiking Packs (I want to say both sizes) and duffel bags (including my favorite army issue one!)

Only since i don't know, what backpacks can the prepper Zombies spawn with? I can see they spawn with Large Bags, Hiking Bags and Duffel Bags

I do not know, if they zombie loot modifier only mods vanilla zeds it may not touch these as these are their own class. Only way to find out is to give it a go!

Thanks for the mod! Would this be incompatible with mods that modify zoombie loot?

As soon as MP version is released.

B42 please??

does this mod work with scrap weapons mod?

Could you add compatibility with this gun mod?

https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3238830225

Thank you again for such an amazing mod!

And happy new year!

thanks :)

It would work along side it no issue.

does this works with undead survivor also?

Hopefully this mod will be updated for Build 42, it is one of my favorite mods. Please, when possible, I would love you to update it :)

I plan on it. B42 has alot of military/survivalist items that work perfectly with this mod.

Not sure how I can do it and make it B41 and B42 compatible. I don't want to break folks games. I'm going to actively look into it.

B42 please ~ Thank You SIR

@Handlebar Oh, the character is also an alcoholic and smoker. So I named the configuration: "Drunk To Hero"

@handlebar The population at the beginning is low, because I'm playing with some difficult mods: Wandering zombies, Sense of smell, Don't feed the zombies, More zombie behavior. And the character does not have any skills, he is zero to hero. The first time it lasted almost 2 months. Right now I'm doing one again but with the random stories activated, plus the Undead Survivor and now the Handlebar Preppers. I raised the difficulty with the zombies and I haven't been able to spend more than two days but I'm trying to get the balance to survive hahaha.

does this work with other survivor zomboid mods?

No loot! holy smokes, that sounds ROUGH. But I like the idea of it. What population of zombies are you playing with?

@Handlebar Thanks for your response! It's excellent work you do. Yes, lately I've been playing games without loot, only with loot from random stories and zombies, so the opportunity for a zombie to have a sleeping bag would be incredible

OHH. I love the sleeping bag mod. Perhaps. I can. My move I've been working on is almost complete and I plan on doing many more passes to these mods. Project zomboid is one of my favorite games of all time, and I love making things, so I will definitely consider it.

Greetings! Excellent mod! Is there any possibility of adding some support for the sleeping bag mod so that some survivors can have some?

Maybe if you have something that affects backpacks ahead of it

@handlebar, mine shows as 15 :(
perhaps a load order issue?

@tim, it should be the same as the stock bags; as far as the vest, do you think it is to low?

Is there a way to increase the carry weight of the prepper vest/bag?

@Handlebar Alright got it

I want to do more with it. I'm going to see what the new build breaks and start more work on it after.

Exceptional mod. Have you ever thought about incorporating other roles for this mod, e.g fallen military survivors or such?

@Cateeyes

At the bottom of your servers (yourservername)_SandboxVars, if not there, add

HNDLBR = {
-- Minimum=0.01 Maximum=5.00 Default=0.15
PrepperChance = 0.15,
PrepperWeaponPack = 1,
DoomsdayPrepper = true,
},

The Prepper Weaponpack # correlates to one of these.

Sandbox_HNDLBR_PrepperWeaponPack_option1 = "Vanilla"
Sandbox_HNDLBR_PrepperWeaponPack_option2 = "Vanilla Firearms Expansion"
Sandbox_HNDLBR_PrepperWeaponPack_option3 = "Britas"
Sandbox_HNDLBR_PrepperWeaponPack_option4 = "Guns of 93"
Sandbox_HNDLBR_PrepperWeaponPack_option5 = "Firearms B41 Revamped"

I can see if I can look them up for you.

When you use it on a server for MP, how do you pick the options? I see only one mod ID listed here, not sure how to tell the server the option it needs to use, ty :)

Is this mod compatible with the Bandits mod?
