[B42] Pack Mule (Old Version)

Description
Overhauls Bag & Equipment Handling

New Version Here:
https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3540903327

Includes:
  • New Slot for Satchels & Slings
  • New Slot for Duffelbags, Golfbags, & Gun Cases
  • New Slot for Bandoliers
  • New Slots for Wrist Watches & Bracelets
  • New Slots for Pouches & Wallets
  • Hunting Vests have Functional Pockets - Compatible with Spongie's Open Jackets!

About:
I always found it frustrating that so many cool and unique bags in Zomboid quickly become irrelevant as soon as you find your first Alice Pack.
Or all those Crafted Satchels, that by the time you can craft them, become pointless to use apart from Base/Vehicle organization.
This mod was created to give bags that generally aren't worn past the first week another chance, things like Golfbags and Gun Cases being worn with Backpacks and Satchels opens up how you loot based on your playstyle.
It also seeks to address the organization of minor equipment, I tend to hoard Pre-Apocalypse Cash and love taking my full collection of pencils & pens wherever I go, so having a faster access Wallet & equip-able Pouch was my Solution.
Take an Alice Pack, Gun Case, and Military Satchel for a long Hunting Trip. Take a Hiking Bag, Duffelbag, and Satchel to go loot the Giga-Mart. Or grab that School Backpack, Golfbag, and Sheet Sling in a chaotic Mall spawn.

Compatible:
Spongie's Open Jackets
https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2812326159&searchtext=open+jacket
Built in Compatibility so that Hunting Vests carry over their inventories properly when Opening/Closing, and is easily one of my all time favorite mods!
(Pack Mule should be given Priority)

Canteen Slot (wear canteen & bandolier at same time)
https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3393080905
In the current build of Pack Mule you can still wear Canteens with Bandoliers, however once I create the appropriate models for Cross-Bandoliers Nepenthe's Canteen Mod will allow for Crossed Bandoliers in addition to Sling Canteens, so I highly recommend they are used together even now!

Similar Mods
• Likely Compatible with mods that affect the same items if you place the desired mod as higher priority

Nepenthe's mods have been in every single one of my modded playthroughs since I started back in B41, and they are still making incredible mods now in B42. They have been incredibly kind and gracious as I have learned to mod and has undoubtedly made the community a better place through their hard work, attitude, and hilarious sense of humor. I highly recommend you check out their Workshop page and support their work!

@balance, thanks for taking the time to respond. I'll give it a test like you say and back up my save! :happy_seagull:

@LungZ in my testing it was safe to transfer over to v2 mid game, the only issue I noticed was Hunting Vests disappearing if the 'Vests Add-On' wasn't activated prior to loading into your game. But I strongly advise backing up your save just in case before trying it out, just to make sure you don't lose any important progress if something unforeseen happens.
'B42 Sandbox Options' mod can also be used to change the sandbox settings mid-game if there's any new feature you do or do not want from the v2 version, I hope this helps :spiffo:

Is it safe to remove this mod mid-game and activate v2?

This mod is lightly incompatible with Knox Event Expanded NPCs. All lower tier bags that were assigned the new slot(duffel bag, satchel, etc) cannot be equipped to the friendly companion NPCs. They can be transferred to their inventory but when right clicking the bag, the only option is drop.

Nothing major but still a minor inconvenience

Whats an alice pack???

Excellent mod. Would be nice if we could toggle off wearing multiple bags at the same time in sandbox options. I find it a bit OP and the clipping an eye sore

I like the shoulder holster but even with this mod you can't were it with anything in the 'protective vest' slot. I'd like to suggest that being added.

@A Dogwork Orange Noir's Backpack Attachments still works in B41 and there is a sub mod that add more support for Modded Backpacks (some where give natural support by Noir)
