This Mod adds several new & usable inventory items that can be used just as they are with your own scripts, but also come with scripting that lets you combine or put them to use. f.e. drink soda, make fire, chop trees, place camera and broadcast picture to your smartphone (early stage but functional), fill fuelcan, fuel vehicles, and so on…
In addition this mod delivers 2 new Modules for use in the editor. Place a3Items_Module (found in menu "misc") and select from its menu wether you want survival simulation (hunger/thirst/sickness/simple Jump on custom key 2) for all playableunits in your mission (MP compatible).
Place the optional Lootspawn_Module wherever you want loot to spawn within buildings.. customize it in the editor: spawn distance, kind of loot, probability of loot, and so on…

III. How to use Modules (loot/survival/loot customizer)
You find three new modules within the MISC module folder in the game editor
a. "rickb_a3items" (only needed once on the map / position doesn´t matter )
=> activates survival simulation (hunger & thirst) + simple jump script activationb. "rickb_lootspawn" (place one for every loot area / position marks center of loot area)
=> activates lootspawn (4 categories civ/mil/industrial/civ guns) in the area (distance, kind of loot, chance of loot can be customized by clicking the module)
=> play around with the loot probability -> default is 7% which means: there is a 7% chance on each house position within the area you defined for that module
=> loot despawns when no player is around
=> not every kind of loot will spawn in every buildingc. "rickb_customloot" (only needed once on the map / position doesn´t matter)
=> lets you define custom loot tables for each loot category => put your own items classnames in between the brackets like this: ["rb_handycam","rb_smartphone"] -> smartphone and handycam will be the only loot spawned in this category
