Craftable Produce Sacks for Project Zomboid (v41.x)

This mod allows you the ability to create the existing produce sacks in the game, which decay in the same way as normal produce, allowing a balanced experience

Adds the ability to craft the already existing Sacks of Produce in a balanced way that works with the vanilla game. An empty sack, a needle, some thread, and whatever produce you want to pack are required. A small amount of thread is used for each sack. The rest is handled using the existing game assets. All existing produce sack recipes have been added.

Purpose

The vanilla game contains a variety of Sacks of Produce that spawn in various areas. These sacks are able to degrade like the produce they contain. Often by the time the player finds these sacks, they have decayed. These sacks are a slight reduction in space and weight used, and are also much easier to handle. This models how much easier it is to handle sacks in the real world.

This mod simply makes these existing produce stacks craftable in a balanced way by requiring some resources to put the sacks together.

Making a Sack of Produce

You need the following to craft a sack of produce:

• A needle*
• An empty sack
• At least x1 units of Thread
• Quantity of Produce

* designates the item is not consumed during crafting

The amount of produce you need varies, based on the amount of produce the sack normally produces as the vanilla sacks are not always the same amount.

Balance Notes

A regular consumable to put a sack of produce together is thread, which you do not get back when you open the sack. This helps somewhat with balance. Players can also only make as many sacks of produce that they already have sacks for.

Mod Details for Servers

The mod is fully compatible with multiplayer and be added or removed to existing games with no issue.
