RUCKUS Plane Crash – CDS Extended Extended version of the original RUCKUS Plane Crash mod with expanded configuration and QoL updates.
CREDITS Original Mod & Author: RUCKUS PLANE CRASH by BuffaGunz
This mod is based on the original RUCKUS Plane Crash event. It expands configuration options and adds quality-of-life features while keeping the original gameplay intact.
This is now a CDS-built codebase and version (inspired by the original RUCKUS Plane Crash), not a direct code fork.
If you want the original experience without changes, please use and support the original mod here: RUCKUS PLANE CRASH by BuffaGunz
WHAT’S BEEN ADDED / CHANGED - Split JSON configs (Settings / Sites / Loot) - Optional tiered weighted loot pools - Per-site tier + per-site overrides (zombies / wolves / bears / gas) - Optional extra threats (wolves, bears, gas) - Gas chance for random sites (no effect on custom sites) - Optional detail props and extra loot containers around the crash - Pristine loot toggle - Offline configuration tool for easier setup - Added fire effect on the wreck - Alarm sound plays when the container is unlocked - In‑game Admin GUI (F7) to view/save main settings (Admins.json whitelist) - File logging + debug logging options (logs to $profile:CDS_PlaneCrash/CDS_PlaneCrash.log) - RPC-based marker communication for safer mod syncing - Active event cap + building-avoidance placement settings - Unattended cleanup: checks every 100s; after 30 minutes with no players within 50m it removes wreck, markers, detail assets, particles/sounds
BASE FEATURES (FROM ORIGINAL MOD) - Plane crashes spawn at random locations or fixed coordinates (any map) - Visible smoke and crash sound - Locked coloured container (Red / Blue / Yellow / Orange) with a key - Key carried by one of the spawned infected

[b]KNOWN BUGS[/b]
[code]Fixed Bugs with navmesh. Note some modded maps apply navmesh to the outside of map this may cause some crashes to spawn outside the map. on small maps i recommend decreasing the time between events to allow for this or use custom locations
