</>What does Unbreakable Gear do?
Gear breaks fast in ZED ZONE. Every swing, shot and dig wears something down, and a bat or rifle that snaps in the middle of a horde can end a run. Unbreakable Gear stops that wear at the point where the game takes it. With the switch on, a crowbar, axe or shovel stays at the durability it has however much you use it: in fights, digging, forcing doors and butchering a carcass. Firing a gun no longer wears the weapon, the parts fitted to it or the loaded magazine. Knives and other tools a recipe calls for come out of a crafting job as they went in, and the toolkit you use to fix gun parts doesn't wear either. Jackets, helmets and body armour you have on soak up hits without losing condition. The mod doesn't repair anything, so gear keeps the durability it had when you switched it on. Things that get used up rather than worn keep working as usual: torches and lights still burn down, lighters and matches still get used, spray paint and fishing bait still run out, and drinks and other liquids are still used. One repair still wears its tool: fixing a vehicle with a tool taken from its trunk. Batteries and the exoskeleton's battery-powered shield are left alone too. Zombies, NPCs and other players' gear wear as normal. Switch it off and your gear starts wearing again from where it is.
</>What is Unbreakable Gear?
Unbreakable Gear removes durability loss from the equipment your ZED ZONE character uses, covering close combat, shooting, crafting, repairs and the knocks your outfit takes. It doesn't repair anything, and consumables such as torches, spray paint, bait, liquids and batteries still run down as usual.
</>Common questions about Unbreakable Gear
What does Unbreakable Gear do in ZED ZONE?
It stops your own weapons, tools, clothing and armour from losing durability. Fighting, digging, breaking doors and butchering no longer wear down what's in your hands, firing no longer wears the gun, its parts or its magazine, crafting jobs and gun-part repairs leave their tools as they were, and the outfit you're wearing keeps its condition when zombies land a hit. The one exception is a vehicle repair done with a tool taken from the vehicle's trunk, which still wears that tool.
Will it repair my broken or worn gear?
No. The mod stops wear, it doesn't repair anything. Each item keeps the durability it had when you switched the mod on, so a half-worn rifle stays half-worn rather than going back to full. If you want an item back at full condition, repair it the usual way in the game, then it stays there while the switch is on.
Do torches, spray paint and bait last forever too?
No. The mod only covers gear that wears, not things that get used up. Torches and other lights still burn down, lighters and matches still get used, spray paint and fishing bait still run out, drinks and other liquids are still used, and batteries drain as usual. For batteries and fuel there's a separate ZED ZONE mod, Unlimited Fuel & Battery.
Does it affect zombies, NPCs or other players?
No. Only the gear your own character uses stops wearing. Zombies and NPC survivors wear their weapons and clothing as normal, and so does every other player in a co-op game, so the mod doesn't change how tough anyone else's equipment is or how a fight against other characters plays out.
Is anything changed in my save when I turn it off?
No. The mod never writes a new durability value; it only stops the game from lowering the one an item already has. When you switch it off, every item simply starts wearing again from the durability it has at that moment, and your save holds the same values the game itself set.
What options does Unbreakable Gear include?
Unbreakable Gear
Your weapons, tools, clothing and armour stop losing durability from hits, shots, digging, crafting and gun-part repairs; lights, lighters, spray paint and bait still run down as usual. Off by default; switching it off lets your gear wear as normal again.
Unbreakable Gear is a ProjectMods mod for ZED ZONE that stops your weapons, tools, clothing and armour from losing durability, so melee hits, gunfire, digging, crafting, gun-part repairs and hits on your worn gear no longer wear anything down.
System Requirements
What features does Unbreakable Gear include?
- Close-combat weapons and tools hold their condition through fights, digging, forced doors and butchering.
- Shooting leaves the gun, its fitted parts and its magazine untouched.
- Crafting jobs and gun-part repairs no longer use up the tools they need.
- Worn outfits and protective gear survive the hits you take.
- Only your own character's gear is affected; zombies, NPCs and other players wear theirs as normal.
Best For
- Your favourite melee weapon is close to breaking before a horde night, so switch on Unbreakable Gear and keep swinging.
- You've built a rifle with good gun parts and don't want to keep repairing it, so switch the mod on and fire away.
- Your armour wears out every time you scavenge a town, so switch it on and keep it in one piece.
