If I want zombies to have nails between 1-3 pieces, do I need to just input Base.Nails,1 three times?

are you supposed to put a space before the number and a , after the numbers? tried that order and nothing

Be mindful guys that loot spawn settings on apocalypse was changed from 0.4 to 0.6.

here to warn people after i trolled myself, if you dont use the default apocalypse loot spawn settings (0.4) you will need to adjust stuff

for example on default apocalypse loot (0.4) you have to do Base.CigarettePack,2.5 to get 1%
but if you adjust the loot setting responsible for cigarettes from 0.4 to 1, you will need to do Base.CigarettePack,1 to get 1%
pretty sure this all applies to the presets aswell which assume apoc loot

oh boy... how I miss Itemzed!

I was wondering the same thing as Cpt.Moottorimarkka. How does the game define how many bullets are in a stack or how many bullets are loaded in a magazine/clip/gun you find on a corpse?

Is it possible to define the max stack size for items that zombies can drop? For instance, a zombie having a chance to drop anywhere between 1-10 loose bullets, or being able to drop more than one bottle of beer or bag of chips?

Ah I simply changed them and didn't update the description you are correct it should be a 0.2% chance. I included the "1" that would be included by default simply for continuity and to not cause confusion for people looking

very nice mod. thanks. but....

why do your notes conflict with your preset examples?
eg. you say that if no rarity value is specified, the rarity will default to 1, but with your bullets preset you have specified "1" each time. Can you not just skip the rarity or will that break the game's understanding of the syntax?
eg. you say that 1 is roughly 0.4% drop chance, but in your alcohol preset you have "0.5" and then you estimate that 0.5 is 0.5% drop chance. but would 0.5 not be roughly 0.2% drop chance

@Skittles Is there any chance we could get a preset for drinks like water, soda, and juice? I see items for containers on the wiki and it looks like containers and fluids have separate ids?

Containers:
Base.SodaCan
Base.PopBottle
Base.WaterBottle
Base.JuiceBox
Base.JuiceBoxApple
Base.JuiceBoxFruitpunch
Base.JuiceBoxOrange

Fluids:
Base.Cola
Base.GingerAle
Base.ColaDiet
Base.SodaPop
Base.Water
Base.CarbonatedWater
Base.JuiceApple
Base.JuiceFruitpunch
Base.JuiceOrange

I might have missed some. I believe that Base.SodaPop is orange soda? And Base.PopBottle is the orange soda bottle? Thanks for all your hard work with this mod. :)

They won't. I tested it by giving 250 chance for a generator and no of the 3 zombies had it.

From what I know items won’t spawn in if it’s over the container weight so that is prob why furniture isn’t spawning jn

I tested it on a couple of random items(purple lightbulb,pizza slice,truck muffler, meat cleaver, widescreen TV) with high percentages and it works just fine, but I couldnt find a widescreen TV. Does furniture and heavy things which have bigger encumbrance than 12 (that the corpse can hold) not spawn in? Its late and I dont have more time to experiment with this (I could have fucked up the commas and your .split() didnt work properly or smth)

how to increase chances of the presets

Is there any way to make a more user friendly interface for adding items?
Or some other way, like using a mask instead of the exact ID of the item?
I wanted to add cassettes from True Music, but there are just too many!

Thank you

Added in now

Thank you! I'll add that in soon

@Skittles
Base.FishingHookBox
Base.FishingLine
Base.FishingNet
Base.JigLure
Base.MinnowLure
Base.PremiumFishingLine
Base.FishingRod
Base.Bobber
Base.Chum
ill let you decide on the spawn rates great mod by the way really is a game changer

Let me know what items you'd like in the template and I can go ahead and add em in

@Skittles Any chance for a fishing gear preset find them hard to find most of the time

@Fed-Smoker what are you inputting?
Base.Sledgehammer,1 for a 0.4% chance

I dig this, would you be able to add occupation support, such as military/leo/fire/medical? I know you currently have the option to spawn ammo on them, but I'd appreciate the ability to add specific loot types to those occupations only

Nothing i try is working

how do i add the sledgehammer??

I know this might sound like a stretch but it will be more useful if this mod can allow different loot to group together as a common pool, e.g. chewing tobacco, cigarettes, cigar, cheroot, rolled cigs, etc. So only one item in the group will spawn.

When is Skittle's Syringe Mod coming to Project Zomboid???????

wowza!

big if true

gotta have it

Dunno who'll want to do this, but if save a Sandbox preset, then go into your Zomboid folder (the ones where the logs and saves are kept), you can go into your Sandbox folder and edit the .cfg using a text editor, if you prefer (the blank in the game's sandbox settings where you enter item IDs and percent chances is way too small for my taste). About to start giving this mod a try myself, Thanks for making this.

The items in presets are shown when you hover over each preset, The chances are about 0.4% per item

Can we have the details of what's in the presets and the chance of each item?

@Fat-n-Slo: Thanks dude, I didn't know they worked that way. I thought annotated maps have a completely different item ID or something. I'll try your method as soon as tomorrow and report the results.

Running out of annotated maps wouldn't be a problem with the Change Sandbox midgame mod, and just removing base maps from the loot table so they're less likely to spawn again.

@One-Man Orgy: Annotated maps are a different animal. Each one drops only once, and you can't select a specific one to drop. If you want more chance of annotated maps, you just increase base maps. When a base map spawns there's a chance it will be an annotated one. The only downside is that once all the annotated maps have been spawned once, the Zeds will be dropping regular maps over and over.

You can put any number you want. 250 will be on almost every zombies (100%), and 1 will be very rare (0.4%). So you can input any number you want depending on the rarity you want

awesome mod, is 4 is the highest value I can put or can I go higher?

拐弯没有动画，操作很生硬

Is there a way to make zeds drop randomly generated annotated maps? I noticed they are much rarer now even when set to "often", so I'm hoping to use this one to set it like how it used to be in B41.

Ill add some preset use cases in game tomorrow which you can simply check what you want. If there are some presets you think would be useful I might add some

@azsmundai In theory the examples in the description would used for that, however I do like the idea where you check a box and it will add those items into the loot pool automatically without needing to find all the item IDs
Such as
[x] Ammo Drops
[ ] Snacks
[x] Medical
etc

@Aurelius Yeah I am looking into making it a larger box since I do agree that the box is quite small and annoying to read

idk if this is possible, but I think you should add some default settings. potato chips might be fun, but obviously, people are gonna want ammo. you'll probably get a lot more use out of the mod if there is a tick box to add ammo. I know you can't do everything, but ammo seems like a no brainer.cool mod tho!

Awesome mod concept and the flexibility is great. From my understanding, it's a single box that you add the item and rarity to using the format from the description? It would be nice if the UI was expanded to help with organizing, so it doesn't become one massive line of text. Somewhere in the range of 10-20 lines could help a lot. Just a suggestion anyhow. Thanks for creating this mod. :)

When you add clothing and containers, are they worn?

How would I make survivor zombie chance? For example a military backpack with several contents that I would expect a failed survivor to have.

Yes does nothing until you specify what you want zombies to have on them

To be clear, this mod does nothing if you dont manually type in the values?
