Realistic Slots (b42)

Description
This mod removes unrealistic floating slot from back and expands holsters slots allows to put knives in them.
It also limit the belt to a single slot in which it is still possible to attach a walkie talkie or another object using the walkie slot like canteeens.

It also adds items:

- Cloth Slings: craftable using a cloth rope mand some ripped sheet.
- Rope Sling: craftable using a rope and some ripped sheet.
- Tactical Sling: Lootable in hunting stores or similar places (it falls on ground rarely, but the improvissed ones can fall on the ground more easly while combat or jumping). Added a small item slot to the tactical sling.
- Work belt, provides the vanilla belt attachments, plus a third plain belt attachment.
- Some vanilla bags, like hiking or military ones, provide a slot more on the webbing left (it replace vanilla one so if you wear a vanilla Suspention Belt with one of these bags, you will have just a single left webbing slot).
- Sheats for swords, every sword have his own sheat and you will be able to attach any sword only in his own sheat. Katana ones are lootable where you could find katanas, the other sheats are just craftable. You will be able to put big knives too into short sword sheats.
- Recipes for dismantling slings.
- All vanilla ammo straps provide a slot on the back like a sling.

I made this because i found unimmersive to be able to attach on the back weapons without sling or in the belt with no sheats, many say that it is possibla to run and jump with an hammer or a knife, thay surely have never tried in the real life.

Future Projects
- Improve current attachments and add multiple positions, such as moving a sheath from the back to the waist, attaching flashlights to belts, and more.

- Knife sheaths.

- More simple attachments for backpacks, hunting vests, and other items.

- Attacks on zombies.

Suggestions are welcome, but I will only implement realistic suggestions that don't disrupt the game's balance.

This mod is for b42 only, it is not compatible with mods witch modify the hotbar game files.
Should be compatible with mods wich add new slots, but these could be

I tried switching the katana sheath position from left to right and vice versa. However, only the katana changes position while the sheath stays on the right side. I’ve run the mod on its own, and the issue still happens, so it doesn't seem to be a conflict with another mod. Also, would it be possible to simplify the context menu options to just say 'Right' and 'Left'?

Yep definitely a mod conflict on my end. Thank you for the fix though really appreciate it!

ok i fixed it, now you can use a single katana sheat on back so the katana is forced to be put in the proper position

@Ō I've tested katanas right now and they works with their sheats, the only issue after the last game update is that you are able to put more sheats on the back and katanas can be attached to the right even if the sheat is to the left, but i will solve it asap.
If they don't work for you, probably you have some mode that impacts on katanas

@Scarn You also need some rags, the recipes are available from the creation menu if you search carefully you should find them

@Ō i'd like to have more visual option or more items and models but this is the best my collaborator has managed to do so far. I only work on the code, and initially this mod only changed the way vanilla slots work.
So I can't add any more models without someone's help. Any help with the graphics is welcome. I'd also like to add knife sheaths.

I'm sorry I'm a bit lost, how do you craft a rope sling? I have the rope and rags in my inventory but I cannot find it in the crafting menu
Ō 4 Oct @ 9:44pm 
I’m having a bit of trouble attaching the katana to its own sheath it doesn’t seem to work properly, even though other sword sheaths are functioning perfectly. Also, I couldn’t find a work belt in the clothing menu; is that the same as the tool belt?

One more thing I noticed: both the slings and the tool belt appear to float on the body rather than fitting snugly. Would it be possible to have an option to adjust how tight or loose they appear base on clothing to avoid clipping and stuff? Like a toggle button or something. That would help make them look more natural and immersive.

@Crodum I'm confused, your report was about sword sheaths not working but now you're talking about a hammer and machete sheath which this mod doesn't add
Crodum 4 Oct @ 2:41pm 
I didn't add any mods, and when I wrote the comment my rifle attachment in my back worked but not the sword seath for a machete, also I couldn't attach a hammer
