Profession Framework

Description
Profession Framework Mod for Project Zomboid

by Fenris_Wolf

Adds a framework to simply adding additional professions and traits to project zomboid,
and editing the default professions. As well as simplifying the modding process and letting
professions have the 'special' traits (brave, lucky, etc), it also simplifies the processes
of adding starting gear to various professions/traits.

Be aware this mod adds no new professions or traits itself, it is merely a framework.
For maximum compatibility, this mod should not included in your own mod, but instead listed as
a requirement.

See the documentation in media/shared/2ProfessionFramework.lua for full usage, and the files in
the example.zip for examples.

All 'Special' traits that have hardcoded features can be used as profession traits. These include:

profession version name (real trait name)
Brave2 (Brave)
Cowardly2 (Cowardly)
Clumsy2 (Clumsy)
Graceful2 (Graceful)

Is there no Desensitized?

Hypochondriac trait is disabled in IWBUMS, so if you are annoyed (like me) by red error box showing up every time you launch the IWBUMS build (though i think it doesnt affect the game in negative way), you have to delete or comment section of the code which adds this trait - file '3ProfessionTraits.lua', lines 323-329.

@leon2356: Fenris (the mod author) has made some bugfixes for it to work with Build 41, but the last time I checked with him he wanted to wait a little bit before I push it to Steam.

Will ask him again if I should update it to the latest version.

Does this still work on the newest build? I have been trying to make a profession on the IWBUMS build with no luck.
Dr_Cox1911  [author] Apr 15, 2018 @ 11:46am 
Those are the ones shipped with the game. If you want to look at the others take a look at the file "SteamLibrary/steamapps/common/ProjectZomboid/projectzomboid/media/lua/shared/NPCs/MainCreationMethods.lua".

(Sidenote: I'm not the creator of this mod, I simply uploaded it to Steam with the permission of Fenris_Wolf who is the author)

Ok it seems to be working for me now, don't know what I did last time that caused it to break but thanks. The only thing that I'm struggling with now is icons, in your sniper example you referenced 'profession_veteran2' but I can't find where it's getting it from or how to get any others.

Just made a simple mod with the example files and it works for me.
The steps I did:
1. extract the example.zip from the TIS forum download
2. made a new mod folder in /Zomboid/mods and extracted the lua-folder from the example.zip in /Zomboid/mods/ProfTest/media"
3. created a mod.info file with all the necessary info, important is the "require=ProfessionFramework,ORGM" line
4. make sure that you are subscribed to ORGM as well for the example to work
5. start the game and activate the ProfTest mod, the ProfessionFramework and ORGM should activate automaticly

The IWBUMS, sorry
Dr_Cox1911  [author] Apr 15, 2018 @ 12:25am 
@Fox: Did you mean the vehicle build or the IWBUMS build (vehicle build is now discontinued now that the vehicles are merged in IWBUMS)?

I didn't use it myself just yet, but I can try to test it if you specify the build.
Fox Apr 10, 2018 @ 4:02pm 
Has this been tested on the vehicles build? I'm on it and I can't seem to get anything I make working, not even the examples you gave will work.
