Description

Better Batteries is a mod that overhauls the built-in battery management system in Project Zomboid.

This mod is no longer supported, as it is rather old and buggy. I have moved onto other projects, apologies!

Features:

Ability to remove dead batteries out of compatible electrical tools.
Electrical equipment will maintain their belt / vest position on battery insertion.
Highly customizable Hand Crank that recharges batteries.
Global battery duration multiplier for battery-reliant tools.
Full singleplayer and multiplayer support.
Dynamic battery support system that (shouldn't) break unsupported mods.
Built-in ignore system for dead / charged batteries for battery-reliant tools / hand cranks respectively.
Full English and partial French + Spanish support. (Russian and current partial translations will hopefully be updated soon.)

Officially Supported Mods:

Why use this?:

This mod was created with the intention of reducing the need for "battery stockpiles", whilst also providing a tool that those stuck with limited supplies could make convenient use of. Particularly helpful in dark worlds, low-energy worlds, or nomadic lifestyles. This system only functions to build upon Vanilla's functionality, and can be entirely disregarded if this isn't your cup of tea.

Finally, I needed a mod like this. It's embarrassing how a flashlight drains a battery in less than a night because of "bAlAnCe". Batteries irl can last days when left on nonstop.

Two people claiming mod author passed away on Dec 30.
Mod author played VRC today(Jan 13).
Mod Author commented on 2 other mods of theirs within the past 2 weeks about future update potential(Jan 2(The Lootbox Challenge) and Jan 7(Visible Generator Range)).
Mod author is online as I type this.

The math aint mathing.
