Unlimited use of Parachute

[CyBurN]

First of all, why does it vanish in the thin air after 1 use.. should be reusable. As of now, i just dont want to craft a new one everytime i want to use it and my main base camp is close to cliffs and could really use Parachute everyday.

The real question is.. beside learning to mod, is there a way i can make Parachute "unlimited uses" on my dedicated server.. like changing some ini files maybe. (could be a 100x pack of chutes that weight the same as 1.. i could live with that) I am guessing mod is the only way so far.

Any idea how i could do that ?

[CyBurN]

so, its not doable and/or nobody know how.. ?

if u want to make it realistic.. yeah u shut be able to get servial uses out one.. but it takes also time to get them together afther using them.... and it takes not much of farming to make lots of them... so there should not a real advantis on that way to get more uses out of it

u can always rent a server and spam a lot of them.. or play single player and do the same.... spam them whit admins commands

[CyBurN]

i am on a dedicated server, i could use console command but dont want to enter a command everytime i need one.. and i know its cheap to make ... but i control every other aspect of the game in my own sandbox Dserver so why not modify parachute too.. every other annoyance as been adjust to our fun standard on the server.. chutes are another requested little tweak .. its not for everybody either..

Thats what i love about these kind of games.. and 7 Days to Die is the same.. gimme a ajustable configurable sandbox running on a dedicated server and let me modify every aspect of it so it goes from fun to freaking awesome exactly the way we want to play. Thats why I got so many hours in both those game.

:-) i can agree whit that.. yeah well hopefull u find a mod or some one who like to make that mod for u. for so long that is not happen... u can always make a big chest full of it.. so u dont have to make it every single time... maybe is that helpfull for the time being....

[CyBurN]

you know what.. while waiting to mod it myself if nothing happen.. i like the idea of a chest full of it in strategic places where you would need them.. that way i dont have to carry 100 of em (weight problem) and I get almost what I want..

Keep it simple! Thanks dude!

:-) yw... nice to know that i could help u on some way....

have it an item with durability like a tool instead of a one shot item would indeed be better.

You could easily reduce the weight or make them not reduce quantity when used using the dev tool kit to make a mod.

I'd make a mod for you, but I have a horrible time with the dev kit since I only have 8 gigs of ram and it needs 16-32 or it crashes all of the time..


Would be nice though if the devs changed the default game to be a re-usable item with durability (10 uses) that had like a 30 second cooldown between uses that we just repaired. I would also like a wingsuit too that could replace chest armor and be used to glide around.

I wouldn't be surprised if a Wingsuit made it in as a Modern tech item and later hover belts or repulsor packs in Hi tech.

It should be only one use, but repairable at the cost of no materials (to simulate refolding it between uses). Maybe another parachute could be added, with 2 uses before repair. The engram would be unlocked at higher levels and would require the normal parachute as a prerequisite.
