Description:

This mod now has a new name. Update B42.1 fixes issues between generators and basements, which are usually found on layer -1 or -2 of the game. However, this fix does not apply to bunkers or skyscrapers. The code limit is still set at layer -3 to +12. Above or below these layers, generators will not function. This patch addresses this issue and provides generator functionality across all game layers.

For maximum clarity on this patch, I have also updated the patch description to facilitate its installation.

This patch is a .class file. This is a manual installation; follow the procedure below.
"~/ProjectZomboid/zombie/iso/objects/IsoGenerator.class"

This file is not a mod, but a patch for a game file, meaning you need to take manual action to fix the generator issue in the game’s layers.

1. Locate the installed files from Steam. For a default installation, it’s likely found here: C:Program Files (x86)Steamsteamappsworkshopcontent1086003402067343modsB42_Fix_Generators_Bunkers_Skyscrapers42
2. To ease version identification, I’ve created two files: the original version for reverting without completely reinstalling the game and the modified file:
   "IsoGenerator_Backup.class" is the original version, generators for layers -3 to +12.
   "IsoGenerator_BunkerSkyscraper.class" the patch, generators for all layers.
3. Once in the folder, simply rename ‘IsoGenerator_BunkerSkyscraper.class.class’ to ‘IsoGenerator.class’. This step is crucial.

   Warning: Depending on your Windows configuration, the file may have a hidden extension. The ".class" might be masked by Windows. This isn’t an issue. In this case, just rename the file to "IsoGenerator"; the extension will not change. Ensure you don’t create "IsoGenerator.class.class" as that won’t work either.

4. Move or copy this file to the game folder, typically here:"C:Program Files (x86)SteamsteamappscommonProjectZomboidzombieisoobjects"

   Windows will prompt you to confirm replacing the existing file. This is normal; you can accept. If you want to revert to the original setup, the initial file is in the mods folder as "IsoGenerator_Backup.class".

   If you revert to version B41, this patch will be automatically overwritten by Steam, and the procedure will need to be repeated to apply the fix.

5. Launch the game and enjoy! 😄

I hope this procedure helps everyone out! 🙂
