Can confirm that. I use the RV Mod for this "cheat" ^^
and you can destroy the walls with sledgehammer to get more room, if you need

Such a nice mod. BTW you can transport them really easily with the combination of RV interior mod and leaving them INSIDE of a van using the moving objects feature.

I can't refill a barrel from an object (like gas station or a water source)

@charrlintu|ukraine♥ ok thank you for your answer

@FTY TRYANT I believe its a bug with in Vanilla since the new update.

Hello, I can't fill the barrel directly with the gas pump. I have a funnel and a rubber hose, but it doesn't work. Can someone give me a solution? Thank you.

No

did build 42.12 break this?

@maleahwhite I just tried the mod rn, I could open a barrel and put gas inside of it, it works

Issues on build 42.12?

Привет, после обновы на 42.12 работает ? Чет я понять не могу :)

Thanks for the quick response, I have been messing around with the list and unfortunately, can't get items that irl are fluids to work. Great to know modded elements would work though, ty.

BBQSauce SoySauce TomatoPaste Soup Stew PeanutButter CleaningLiquid MapleSyrup Ranch SesameOil OliveOil Cider Vinegar RiceVinegar BalsamicVinegar HotSauce VegetableOil MapleSyrup Marinara Salsa Mustard Ketchup ChocolateMilk Milk

If there is an ingame table I should be checking, please point and I'll do more testing.

nope

Does it work for B41?

Regarding the other requests, I’m not sure whether stew and marinara count as fluids. You could experiment with the fluid pool and categories sandbox variables.

@brendanmcasey
You could try adding "MotorOil UsedMotorOil ATF Antifreeze" to the fluid pool sandbox variable to make modded fluids start spawning in the barrels.

Hi, it's been a minute, hope you're well. I was wondering if this could be expanded to include commercial use of the barrel. Allowing it to use base items as tomato paste, marinara, soups and stews etc. I know that honey is allowed and I've tried to include these other item in my existing games but they never populated. Also, what are the chances, if you take up this suggestion, to allow modded elements as well? The mod Summer Project includes engine oil and transmission fluid for example which would be logical to find in industrial settings. If these ideas are already possible and I'm doing it wrong, sorry for taking your time.

Thank you bookgirl

@Prof.Liebstrumpf adding on to your helpful comment. :)

Here are two very helpful bug-fix mods that fix issues this mod may cause with the Vanilla weight limit. I had a very amusing series of bugs occur when I tried to haul a barrel with 108L of gasoline from the gas station back to base.
TLDR: managed to pick it up and get it in the trunk, but couldn't get it back out.

- Fixes the problem of placing it.


- Link provided below by Prof.Leibstrumpf as well. Added here again in case their comment gets bumped to the next page.
- kinda does what it says on the tin. Allows you to have more that 50kgs in your inventory.

@GigaWatte found out that allocating more RAM to zomboid completely fixed it

@KISEL how the hell did you survived so long without reading?

Its still work for 41 or not?

The mod doesn’t actually change anything in the game. It only adds buttons to the context menu and timed actions - that’s literally all it does. So I don’t know where the FPS issue is coming from. Please post any errors from console.txt, if there are any. It might also be a mod conflict.

Encountered FPS issue in mid-game.
Disabling this mod increase FPS from 5-10 to 25+ :(

This mod made my game lag on 1 or 5 fps, idk if it's not compatible with something else but removing it fixed it

I can't move opened oil drums or dismantle them. Is there a solution?

The generator overhaul mod is partially broken.

Should I be able to fill the new generator in the mod linked below to barrels using the functionality added here?

https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3478628177&searchtext=generator

For vanilla generators it appears I can, but the new generator I don't see an option. I just want to make sure it's not a mod order issue or something.

I stumbled across this mod while looking for a different mod.
This mod fixed the problem with the 50 encumbrance limitation and now i can carry barrels more than 50 of weight.
This mod is necessary for your barrel mod! ^^

https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3391460341

When i got a barrel in my garage and pipe wrench in my hand, its just does not show me option to open it.. do i have to need some aditional mod or iam just stupid?
i cant find anything else on internet how to use it..

The Problem is, the game has a limitation on how many you can carry. max 50 (if you completely naked and nothing else carrying with you). Everything that weights more can't get into the players pocket or be dropped. The Player takes it first out of the container to drop the item and if the item weights more than 50, it's stucked.
1 item above 50 weight is enough to make that trouble. The reason why you never find an item with higher encumbrance.

You notice this on picking up some items like the big freezer/fridge, that will dropped into 2 parts instead one item part.

Ah, sorry. It usually gets me out of these situations, I was hoping it would help you too.

Yes, i have the mod installed too. Weeks ago. Also not working.

@Prof.Liebstrumpf @Chaos Legion Do you have the "More on the Floor" mod ? If not, try installing it and see if it allows you to drop the barrel on the floor...? It will at least free up your vehicle, even if the barrel can't be picked up.

Overweight protection doesn't work (in my modpile at least) 241L barrel stuck in my trunk. )))

Recreated the bug with a crate:
https://youtu.be/QFP-mCCB3Ik

After this, i took a sledgehammer, destroyed the crate, the item dropped on the ground as a 2D Pic/Object but still can't picking it up. Too heave for my inventory.
The bugged barrel in my trailer has an encumbrance of 51!

I will check it when I have some time

Looks like there's no overweight protection. Or the protection goes in the wrong direction. ^^

@Prof.Liebstrumpf
Interesting how you even did that, I thought I had implemented overweight protection

Got a bug with the barrel. i filled one barrel up with bleach up to 41L (51 encumbrance), took it up and transfered the barrel into my trailer. now i CAN'T get the barrel out of the trailer because the weight is over 50. Too heavy for inventory. It's now stucking forever in my trailer. lol

B41 compatibility please

@Luciphim
Hi. According to my tests, it only breaks the barrels I added (the one you can see in the 3rd screenshot), so the save game should not be corrupted. However, just in case, make a backup.

wdym not safe to remove mid-save? will it totally wreck the save game or only the barrels will have a problem?

I refuse to play without it.

me find barrel. me bring to gas station. Me fast forward time. Me jumpscared 5x by clickers. Me discover encumbrance 800

Could you add a feature that enables the rainwater collection bucket to draw water from nearby barrels? The water in my washing machine is always insufficient.Thank you！

@khylinnejane
42.11, stable version, continuing the previous 42.10 save; my barrel is still there (and still filled with the gasoline I collected previously).
Doesn't seem to be any problems whatsoever

is it good on 42.11? i need this so bad

42.10, installing the stable version on a previous save, no bugs/errors so far

@GigaWatte Hello, so i downloaded the mod, but it doesnt appear in the mods list at all. Therefore i cannot activate it
