Better Electronics
Hello, This is my first Mod for Project Zomboid.
I realised that A LOT of People saidthat "there is no need to level the Electronics Skill past level 6", so I thought I could make a mod to change that.
As an Electrician myself I was immediately thinking about a lot of ways electricity could be implemented in the Game better so here we go for now...
As said the mod is aimed on giving the Electronics Skill a Purpose on Higher Levels. So the new Stuff comes mostly with a high Skill-treshhold. It's quite Powerful tho, if used properly.
New Items:
- 8 Recipe Magazines for Upgrading Walkie Talkies, Radios, Ham Radios, Crafting Speakers, Motion Sensors and Remotes
- 4 Circuit Diagrams which can be crafted by reverse-engineering electronic devices -> used by high level Electricians to craft some of the Magazines above
- 3 Higher Tier Noise Makers which will attract Zombies from a wider Range than the Vannially ones - Compatible with Remotes and Motion-Sensors
- 3 Higher Tier Remotes which let's you trigger connected Stuff from way more far away than the Vanilla-Ones
- An Electronics Kit for Practicing which with the use of some Materials helps you get to the Higher Levels without dismanteling all the TV's in the neighbouhood
New Recipes:
- Scavenge in Electronics-Scraps for Useful Components
- Craft Upgrade Magazines from circuit-Diagrams (If you're Electronics Level is High Enough)
The new Magazines should spawn in Bookshops and a-like-places and the Electronics-Kit is a thing Children usually would use ;)
I plan to add more functionalities to that mod like automated doors and better Generators/ Solar Stuff/ Wind Turbines - however I still need to get used coding in LUA so that can take some time.
