Unbreakable Vanilla Weapons
Prevents vanilla weapons from losing their condition (may or may not affect modded weapons).
Let’s face it. A crowbar, made from forged, tempered steel, would NEVER break beating up decaying human skulls. Firearms can fire thousands of rounds before minor parts need to be replaced, tens of thousands of rounds before major parts need to be replaced, and hundreds of thousands of rounds before they are beyond repair. Weapons in this game do not last as long as their real world counterparts would.
In Project Zomboid, whenever a weapon is used a check is passed. If this check registers, the weapon deteriorates. As an example, the bat can have up to 15 HP. It has a check of 20, meaning whenever the bat does damage to an object (player, zombie, etc) there is a 20% chance the bat will lose 1 HP.
This mod removes the check, making weapons unable to deteriorate.
NOTE: Effect takes place with new weapons found in the game world. Weapons the player has spawned with, or weapons the player has already discovered prior to installing the mod, will continue to lose their condition.
UVW is not the mod I wanted to make originally. Originally, I wanted to make a mod that allows the player to repair a weapon to 100% HP regardless of how many times it has been repaired prior. In Project Zomboid, repeated repairs reduce the max HP a weapon can be restored to. As an example, a weapon that has been repaired 5 times and is 100% condition might have less HP than an unrepaired weapon on 50%. I wanted to combine this effect with a mod that greatly increased the default HP of all weapons to have more realistic deterioration, while still having weapon repairs.
However, I was not successful in easily locating this setting. I am not an experienced mod-maker, and UVW is a compromise of my abilities after spending some time pouring through Zomboid’s game files. I hope you enjoy it.
This mod may conflict with modded weapons & their properties. Use with caution if other weapon-related mods are installed! This mod may or may not affect modded weapons. I can’t check every weapon pack, so it is possible that certain packs might receive unbreakable weapons, while others may not.
