/bin/'s Profession and Skill Based Starting Gear

Why does the Cop not have their gun? Why does the Burglar not have their tools? Why the hell does the Smoker not have their smokes? You mean to tell me that these people have lived their lives, developed these skills and hobbies, and have nothing at hand in the event of crisis to makes use of them?

Ask these questions NO MORE!

The initial code for this was ripped wholesale and thoroughly modified from Draco's Expanded Traits (https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2730251452). I liked the whole spawning with gear based on who your character is and what they did before the apocalypse and though it should be it's own mod. If they want this taken down, all they have to do is ask.

Is this balanced? Probably not. Does it makes sense? At least a little bit.

This is created around Vanilla and has no direct integration with other mods that add items. It seems to work fine for the most part with mods that replace vanilla items so long as the same base id is used. Feel free to take this and make your own extensions or entirely new versions. I stole it and now so can you!

Notes from the creator:
This mod is primarily intended to give a quicker start to a playthrough, reducing some of the initial burden of core item collection by granting items that a character of that type would likely have had on hand given who they are.
