📋 About This Mod
!!! ALPHA 21 COMPATIBLE !!!
11/24/2021
The mod works fine on 19. 5(b60).
Version 1. 2 - 1/14/2021
Added Height Map to all traps.
New traps - Added 2 more traps.
Reworked 2 of the old traps for better typology.
New UV's for 2 traps due to a seam I found and didn't liked.
Small tweaks in the XML's like - added bigger crafting time due to superior traps compared to vanilla ones.
Decreased Specular and Sheen Tint to a reasonable amount (don't like those strange reflections in game).
Steel Traps Set modlet adds 7 new items/blocks to the game. 6 of them are traps and one of them is a wall armor. Got bothered by the game that I have to put hundreds of traps down to stop overwhelming blood moon in mid-late game or that my base gets smashed a lot so I made those items on my own taste. Have to admit that I have gave thought if I want to share this or not.
Steel Wall Armor Trap - serves as exterior wall armor and at the same time is a trap.
Steel Armored Wall - Serves as exterior/interior/roof armor(you can have them individually or on top of your normal walls).
Steel Spikes - Trap with excellent damage.
Steel Spiked Wire - Barbed wire on steroids.
Steel Entanglement Wire - No damage but slows down badly anything that steps on them so it's perhaps the most OP in this pack.
Steel Caltrops - Weak damage but this trap will disable the regeneration ability of radiated zombies for 9 seconds. NEW v1. 2
Steel Ground Spikes - Decent damage along with applying bleed buff. Very nasty trap overall. NEW v1. 2
All the items above are made by me, 13erserk from scratch in blender then unity then 7 days to die so you can NOT use them in your mods or repost them anywhere else without my explicit permission.
Warning: This little mod will require a new game to see the effect!
Compatibility: It should work with all versions from A19. However, I made this with/for A19. 3.
Installation: Unzip/Unrar the archive anywhere and then copy the folders into your Mods folder and it should look like:
D:\Games\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\7 Days To Die\Mods\13erserk - Traps
My other mods: 160 Slots Backpack, Pickup Extended, Decoration Set, Health and Stamina, Lucky Looter AIO, Survivor Pack, Adventurer Pack, Sprains And Strains
