This post serves to (hopefully) clear up any questions you may have about the mod.

---

Can I add this to an existing save?
No - due to Save Our Station containing new buildings and areas, you will need to reset or start a new world for the weather stations and other areas to correctly load.

I see two mods listed when in my game, do I need them both enabled?
Yes - If you are playing in Knox Country, enable both the Save Our Station - Core and Save Our Station - Knox Country mods for the full experience. The mods are separated in case weather station support is added to additional maps in the future (e.g. Louisville).

If you want just the new locations, without the changes to the behavior of the Emergency Broadcast System, enable only the Save Our Station - Knox Country mod.

How do I listen to the Automated Emergency Broadcast System?
The Automated Emergency Broadcast System (AEBS) is a vanilla radio station, and appears on a randomly selected frequency.
The best way to find it is to check the channel presents on any radios or walkie talkies you find in the world. To learn more, refer to the PZ Wiki.[pzwiki.net]

When, and how often do interruptions/faults occur?
Once the Knox Power-Grid fails, you can expect an interruption or fault to occur about once every few weeks.
Timings and frequencies can be adjusted with the provided Sandbox Options.

How do i differentiate between a Fault and an Interruption?
Interruptions happen very quickly - there is usually little warning prior to a service outage due to it being, well, an outage.
However, the message provided by the system will be very clear in differentiating between Faults and Interruptions.

The Emergency Broadcast Integrity reports an issue, but doesn't give a location and/or diagnostic code!
It takes some time for the Emergency Broadcast System to fail. Pay attention the color of the Broadcast text - it will turn red once a location and diagnostic code are being broadcast, and timer starts counting down to a permanent failure.

How often should I check for failures?
It takes time for the systems to fail and self-diagnose, and you'll be given plenty of warning before it fails completely. Depending on your Time Multiplier setting, once or twice per day should suffice.

In the event of bad weather, you should consider listening more frequently - the weather can isrupt the radio signal, causing you to partially miss important information (such as Diagnostic Codes or the Location of the Fault).

The network seems to be failing but I still got my weather report, what gives?
The Emergency Broadcast System is built with many fail-safes, and will try its best to report whatever information it can before a complete failure occurs. It will, however, eventually fail completely if the player does not intervene.

When the network fails completely, can I still fix it?
Yes - in case of a complete failure, a location and diagnostic code will be broadcast until the player performs the necessary maintenance.

Can I fix faults at any weather station?
No, repairs must occur at the location specified during the Emergency Broadcast System's Integrity report.

What does the control room look like?
It's a drab green room with blue radar terminals, usually found on the second story of a building with red and white antennas anchored to its roof.

I'd like to add a weather station to my own map, can that be done?
Of course! Contact Spacew00t and/or YoshiWoof22 in the Project Zomboid Discord's #mapping channel to get started!
(That being said, balancing the travel times between stations is very difficult - we do not have a proper way of balancing this yet, but are working on a solution)

Is there an update roadmap?
Whilst we have some ideas for expanding the mod, doing so will certainly take some time. That said, we're working on a roadmap to give some details on the scope and content of future upcoming updates - this will be on the mod's GitHub Page[github.com].

What & Where is ZULU-666?
Massive spoilers ahead, view at your own discretion. This info CAN be found in-game:
Consider visiting the Military Base in the forest near Rosewood. You will find a new path within the woods...

(MODDING) What map cells are the stations located in?
You can find this info in the Map (In-)Compatibility Discussion post.

Future entries to this FAQ will be added as time passes. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to leave a comment!
