Description:
CoZy – Buildable Fireplaces

The ultimate cosy experience is finally there in Project Zomboid !
Build proper fireplaces and chimneys using Masonry in Project Zomboid Build 42.

CoZy – Buildable Fireplaces adds functional, buildable fireplaces to the Build 42 construction system. Use the Building menu, choose Masonry, pick a fireplace style, and build a real hearth for your safehouse instead of only decorating around one.

Features
  • Build single and double fireplaces through the Building menu.
  • Multiple styles: stone, red brick, gray brick, chiseled stone, basalt, granite, marble, and dark/white marble variants.
  • Wooden shelf variants for stone, red brick, and gray brick fireplaces.
  • Build matching chimneys in several brick and stone color variants.
  • Functional fireplaces: add fuel, light the fire, extinguish it.
  • Crackling fireplace ambience while the fire is burning.
  • A slow stress reduction effect when staying close to a lit fireplace.
  • Sandbox options for smoke danger, comfort strength, comfort radius, chimney search height, and combined sprites.

Smoke Safety

Indoor fireplaces need a connected chimney.

If a lit fireplace is indoors and the chimney is missing, nearby players can suffer smoke poisoning similar in spirit to indoor generators. Going outside or leaving the unsafe room stops the smoke exposure from getting worse.

How To Build
  1. Enable the mod.
  2. Open the Building menu.
  3. Go to Masonry (Masonry lvl6 required!).
  4. Choose a fireplace or chimney.
  5. Place the fireplace against a wall.
  6. Build a matching chimney behind so the smoke has somewhere to go.
  7. Add fuel and light the fireplace.

Sandbox Options
  • Fireplace Smoke Toxicity – Off, Very Low, Low, Normal, or High.
  • Comfort Effect – Off, Very Low, Low, Normal, or High.
  • Comfort Radius – maximum tile distance for the stress reduction effect.
  • Chimney Connection Height – how many floors above a fireplace are checked for a connected chimney.
  • Use Combined Fireplace Sprites – keeps the custom depth-correct fireplace visuals enabled.

Compatibility
  • Built for Project Zomboid Build 42.
  • No other mods required.
  • Safe to add to existing saves.

Notes
  • Double fireplaces create two functional fireplace objects so both sides can be interacted with.
  • If you disable combined sprites in sandbox settings, stone and brick surrounds may use vanilla tile layering and can visually overlap the firebox.
  • The smoke system is intentionally configurable.

Credits
  • Mod design, scripting, recipes, and sprite integration: Neanth.
  • Custom fireplace sprite composition uses Project Zomboid Build 42 fireplace and masonry tiles as source material.
  • Fireplace crackle ambience: Thanks to Eugen Ungurean for the audio asset supplied for this mod.

Stay warm. Build a fireplace.
