Makes zombies drop awesome (basic) loot like other survival games.

Adjust your zombie loot drops as you like! Make your own apocalipse!

=============== WHAT THIS MOD OFFER ===============

BIGGER IMMERSIVE LIST OF ITENS TO FIND IN ZOMBIE POCKETS - All zombies were once alive, looting and surviving just like you, they should have their stories told aswell, but controlling the rate of drops to maintain the game difficulty (mod base drop = insanely rare loot).

SPECIAL LOOT FOR SPECIFIC ZOMBIE OUTFITS/TIPE (CLOTHING) - Better chance for axes/extinguishers in firefighters, health itens in medics/nurses, buiding materials in contruction workers, seeds in farmes and so on...

FULLY ADJUSTABLE SETTINGS VIA SANDBOX OPTIONS - Make specific itens drop more/less or not drop at all (see pictures above).

CAPACITY TO ADD ANY VANILLA/MODDED ITEM TO THE LOOT DROP - Via the extra roll feature in sandbox option (follow instructions in the end of the page).

COMPATIBILITY WITH BRITA'S AND FIREARMS B41 - When using this mods, the respective itens they add are already added to zombie drop (follow instructions in the end of the page for fine tunning).

Just to make zombie loot worth your time again... Makes corpse loot a nice surprise once more...

============= LOOT CHANCE & EXAMPLES =============

RARITY LV1 - Variety of snack/can foods ex. beef jerky/peanuts/chips/chocolate/beer/spices...

RARITY LV2 - Variety of craft itens ex. duct tape/glue/adhesive tape/wooden glue/nails/screws...

RARITY LV3 - Variety of seed bags/magazines ex. all seed bags/almost all mags (farming/hunting/fishing/cooking/generator/herbs/metalw.)

RARITY LV4 - Variety of guns/ammo ex. revolver/sawoff shotty/loose bullets and boxes...

RARITY LV5 - Some secret UBER MEGA ULTRA RARE itens. If youre "winthelottery" lucky, you could discover some nice apocalipse treasures... ex. spiffo plushy... the rest is up to you to hunt and discover on your travels. Happy hunting!

=================== COMPATIBILITY ===================

BRITA's WEAPONS / GUNFIGHTER - When Brita's weapon mod is active, all weapons from the gun store distribution are added to zombie drops. The multiplier for zombie drops is controlled by the "other guns" multiplier in sandbox. The zombie loot distribution should take into account any weapon settings set in gunfighter options, so for example if post-1993 weapons are removed in those settings they should not appear on zombies. Same goes for disabled weapons or ammo types. My suggestion for Brita's, if you want to fine-tune non-police zombie gun drops, would be to disable the zombie weapon drops entirely within gunfighter settings and adjust drops with the "other guns" multiplier in this mod to fine-tune and make the drops as rare as you need.

FIREARMS B41 - When Firearms b41 is active, all the new firearms and ammo are added to the table of items dropped from zombies, tuneable by the pistol/long gun sandbox modifiers.

ANY MOD - Using the extra rolls feature in sandbox, you can insert any modded item to zombie loot, so compatibility is dependant to user. Example1: "ItemID1:chance;ItemID2:chance;ItemID3:chance" Example2: "Base.BaseballBat:0.2;Base.Crowbar:0.1;Base.Axe:0.05"
