This mod barricades the house/building you spawn in, and hangs sheets on the windows, just like the autorities told you to do.

It also spawns a few items on the ground (low chance) or on furnitures(high chance). Most of the items spawned are directly taken from the loot tables of the current room. So in a kitchen you will find kitchen items laying around, etc. This means that your starting building has slightly more loot than it would otherwise have, and this extra loot depends on the building you spawn in. If you spawn in a Hardware store, expect lots of extra tools.

The player is also given a shitty fragile hammer in their inventory, to remove the door barricades if needed. Most of the time there will be at least one door that is not barricaded somewhere.

The player is also given bags of food according to your chosen food loot rarity. On Rare, you'll get three bags of food containing 5+ food items, on Insanely Rare you will get only only one bag containing 3 maybe 4 food items.

If the building is big, not all the building will get barricaded, only your room and the rooms surrounding you.

Ideally this is intended for spawning in a house, but this has also been tested with Pillow's Random Spawns in mind.

Credits to @Shinyshark the author of the original Wait My Ass for the great idea.
