Car Ma

This DayZ server mod causes a random unsecured vehicle part to detach when the vehicle hits something. Lock your car parts in place with a wrench, screwdriver, or lug wrench to prevent accidental loss!

Please direct all bug reports and feature requests to my Discord server[crimsonzamboni.com].

Note: This mod can, optionally, be loaded as a server-only mod.

The behavior of this mod can be customized via the "$profile:carma\settings.json" file. A file containing the default settings will be created upon server startup if the file does not already exist.

The "exemptVehicles" setting allows you to specify certain vehicle types to be exempt from being affected by Car Ma. This may be useful for modded vehicles that do not support having their parts secured.

The "exemptSlots" setting determines which vehicle inventory slots, if any, are exempt from detaching their attachments during a collision. By default, no slots are exempt. See also the "exemptUnlockableAttachments" setting.

Note: Exempt slots are determined by the slot name, not the item name. The complete list of vanilla vehicle slot names can be retrieved by searching for "attachments[]" in the DayZ wheeled vehicle config.cpp file[github.com].

This setting determines whether car attachments that are unable to be locked are automatically exempt from detaching during collisions. The default is true.

The "debounceMs" setting determines the minimum amount of time, in milliseconds, that must pass between qualifying collisions, for additional parts to detach. The default is 100 milliseconds. Due to how DayZ reports vehicle impacts, giving this too low of a value can cause multiple parts to detach in a single collision.

The "minimumDamage" setting determines the minimum amount of damage that must occur for a part to be detached from the vehicle. The default is 150.

Some vehicles are more susceptible to damage than others. For example, the Sarka takes damage very easily, whereas the M3S truck does not.

Note: In vanilla DayZ 1.13, a collision with 150 damage is the minimum for the crash sound to play, 750 is the minimum for passengers to receive shock and health damage, and 3000 is the threshold for instant passenger death.

The "creatureHits" setting determines whether hitting animals, infected, and other players causes car parts to detach. The default is false, which means hitting infected and animals does not cause parts to detach.

The maximum health of the creature being hit determines how fast you have to be driving in order for parts to detach. For example, infected require higher speeds than bears. Chickens are extremely weak and never cause parts to detach.

This setting determines whether car attachments are automatically unlocked when they become ruined in collisions. The default is true.
