Description
Scott's Jumper Cables (AS SEEN ON TV)

Craft or Find Jumper Cables. Then connect jumper cables via the vehicle radial menu OR by right clicking on the battery, assuming you have jumper cables in your inventory.

Sandbox options:


Tired of point blank gunshots not killing ZEDs? Install Point Blank and feel like Trinity



You can craft high quality version with electrician1/metalworking3. They start at 100% durability
You can craft medium quality version with electrician3. They start at ~50% durability
You can craft low quality versions with electrician1. They start at ~15% durability

They will be damaged over time. If you forget to unplug them before you drive away, they will take ALOT more damage.

Batteries on both cars will take condition damage

If the car you're trying to jump start has below 20% charge, you're liable to drain the batteries in both cars and be screwed.

Please let me know if you run into any issues and i'll take a look!

@meyar i tested it with b42 and it worked for me. i did have to remove one of the ways you can attach the jumper cables. make sure you have the cables in your inventory and use the vehicle wheel.

Are there any known mod conflicts with this in b42? I can't get the option to attach cables to appear on any car I've looked at.

@TEMPEST I think it's from the A-Team movie. Not 100% sure, it's been a while.

Where did that gif come from? I need to know the backstory, it's so funny.

@amroth sandbox multipliers added

@amroth I'll add some multipliers

Does this have sandbox options? I don't like the idea of batteries taking condition damage or getting drained, as I'm already playing with pretty hardcore difficulty and it's rare to find any battery in remotely decent state.

I haven't tried this mod but I literally LOL'd and shared the mod's page with a friend because of that animated GIF of the guy giving the car's engine a "jump" with an AED! LOLOLOLOLOL

"If you forget to unplug them before you drive away, they will take ALOT more damage."

Zombies just sitting there laughing their asses off at the human driving off with jumper cables attached to the battery lol
