ive been having problems fueling my generators i cant fuel any of them past 10%

I like the idea, but this mod is bugged. Not only it ofter spawns 2 generators close to each other, it also spawnes generators in places where i previously took it.

I periodically find 2 generators in one tile, this needs to be fixed.

Ciao! @Champy
I translated your mod into Italian, thanks for your work and for sharing it with the community!

@Mitchel Vories In vanilla b42 if I remember correctly only the Old Generator has random condition. None of them have fuel.
And in the upcoming b42 patch their noise radius and rate of degradation will vary as well.

What is vanilla generator behavior -- is it still random conditions with the chance to be fueled and this mod just adds options to tweak the chances?

@TheKoris68 Updated for b42

@TheKoris68 soon

B42?

playing with mods look you always have generators, many exmples, raven creek. Is posible add a filter with a direct chance of getting 10% condition and if it doesnt get into 10% it get randomized like the mod does (optional).

@aquelarrefox Yes it should

Does this affect the generator placed in modded maps?

@BlackWater821 good to know, thanks for confirming

Create new server for mods testing.. randomly found 2 generators, one was 67% fuel 100% conditions. Another was 0% fuel 33% conditions.

So yes, it work in MP

I have a generator running all the time. I always keep 10 repair parts and a canister nearby. I have to keep the items in a drawer. Could you please make a mini compartment in the generator to hold 1 canister and 10 parts?

@Dingus Donkus Sadly the rarity of generators is hard-coded on the Java side. I was able to verify exactly where by reading the Java code after decompiling it, but actually making a Java mod is beyond my skills. Basically the chance even on the rarest setting is 1/10 in storage units and 1/7 in sheds and garages. I agree I wish we could make it rarer than this.

The only way to go around this would be to find a way to instantly remove the generator after it has been spawned. Something like a % chance to remove the generator. I'm not sure how to do that.

Is there any chance that you can add an option to modify the chance of spawned generators? I've been wanting this ever since B41 came out there are too many generators in the game world even at the lowest settings. I know some generators have set spawns but even the randomized spawns are too high. I would also accept knowing the file path to change it myself, its been the 1 thing I can't modify in the game and it makes generator acquisition trivial.

Been seeing instances of multiple generators on the same tile also in multiplayer. Love what this mod does though, great idea.

Man!! I've lost accounting of how much ive being searching for a MOD that nerfs generators. Thanks!!

@pwrcosmic mmm...well that sound OK to me, it could be a survivor that fixed it or took it or.... :)

Got 3 generators in 3 garages next to each other. Am I just lucky or this something from this mod?

I dunno if I'm going nuts, but it seems to re-randomize in multiplayer under unknown circumstances. I've returned to a gas station where I previously connected a generator only to find it at maximum condition (it was at like 40% last I checked) and disconnected. I may just be going nutty, though it doesn't hurt to check if you can find the time.

Nice! Can you make the same for the propane tanks for the Barbecue grill? they always at full capacity.

@trichogaster yes

Nice idea! If I install this mod in a running save will it mess with already spawned generators?

Ma man! Excellent addition

YES! Thank you. This irked me very much that every generator is always 100% and empty.

Immersion!

this is gonna be a good mod

i love u

now that's some detail that's missing ! good idea ! if you want to i got some too we can discuse in private
