Alarm Check Mod (Fix for v41.53+)
This is a fixed version of SilentResident’s Alarm Check Mod, as the magazines required to learn the skill to check for alarms were not spawning due to changes in the loot spawns.
I’ve fixed it with their permission and it’s currently working in v41.53+
I’m not an experienced modder but I’ve noticed no issues whatsoever in my testing.
MOD INFO:
Allows the player to pinpoint burglar alarms in homes and cars.
HISTORY:
There is no way to tell whether a home or car has an alarm, The game lacks any visual representation for the alarms; the only way for the player to discover if there is an alarm, is to trigger it by breaking in. The mod corrects this by providing the means for the players to check homes and cars for alarms.
MOD USE:
Pinpointing an alarm in a house or car, requires that the player finds and reads the instructive manual containing security diagrams and electronic information on how to pinpoint Alarms in homes and vehicles. The manual is titled "How to Check for Alarms" granting the player the basic level of knowledge necessary for checking Alarms. Usually, the manual is found in places where other similar magazines and guides such as "How to Use Generators" also make an appearance, such as bookshelves, and libraries, so keep looking for it, it can prove quite a life-saver in several occasions, such as when trying to keep a low profile and avoid nasty surprises, trying to scavenge dangerous areas which are heavily infested by zombies, or when playing as a deaf player who can’t hear whether there is actual alarm going off! Overall, it is useful to know whether there is an alarm around, as it enables you to plan different scavenging approaches and offers new gameplay strategies!
NEW OR EXISTING SAVES:
It doesn’t matter if your save is new or existing. The mod will work regardless.
COMPATIBILITY:
This is a very simple mod and should not have any compatibility issues with other mods, but if you find any, let me know.
