Zens Raid Alarm

What Is This?

This mod adds a raid alarm to the game to be notified on Discord when your base is under attack.

The raid alarm can be built and managed by players in-game to send Webhook messages to their own Discord channels.

Basically you need to craft the raid alarm rack (10 planks + 50 nails), place it, then attach a Field Transceiver to it with a working car battery, and use a screwdriver to lock it in place. A pristine car battery will last up to 1 week if fully charged then will require charging/replacing.

If the server you're playing on has enabled the requirement of a radar dish you'll need to find a radar dish kit, deploy it near the raid station and attach it with a cable reel.

You will be notified when the raid alarm is turned off, someone modifies the webhooks, the radar loses connection due to flat battery/sabotage, or obviously if your base is attacked. You may also be notified in-game via radio message notification if enabled in the config and you have a working radio.

By default a Territory is required to set up and manage the raid alarm, but this can be disabled in the config. (Compatible with both Expansion and Basic Territories).

This mod was obviously inspired by Daemonforge's Raid Alarm mod, but this mod was built from scratch and does not use any of his code or his Universal API - it's purely standalone.

As always, tons of JSON config options to enable/disable features are included - check the wiki guide for details.

Installation Instructions:
