[B41/B42] Check Around

Description
Ever felt like peaking through a window or door or looking upstairs or downstairs was a natural human trait ?

Now you can do it in Project Zomboid ! Saving you from those nasty floors hiding zombies upstairs, or even downstairs ! You can also check behind windows or door ! But peaking a closed door can have risks and cause a creeking sound that can attract zombies in the next room ! Or even players...

How to use:
Check upstairs*
  • When in stairs or at the bottom of it, press the keybind to check upstairs. By default, the key isn't set**.
  • This will check in a circle around the square at the top of the stairs.
  • If any zombies are detected, their amount will be shown above the player.
  • If no zombies are detected, your player will mention it.

Check downstairs*
  • When at the top square of stairs (not on the stairs), press the keybind to check downstairs. By default, the key isn't set**.
  • This will check in a circle around the square at the bottom of the stairs.
  • If any zombies are detected, their amount will be shown above the player.
  • If no zombies are detected, your player will mention it.

* these voicelines can appear at the same time if you are in both conditions

Check behind windows
  • Right click an opened, non-barricaded and with opened curtains window to have an option to check outside of it.
  • This will check in a circle around the square behind the window.
  • If any zombies are detected, their amount will be shown above the player.
  • If no zombies are detected, your player will mention it.

Check behind doors
  • Right click a non-barricaded door to have an option to check behind it.
  • This will check in a circle around the square behind the door.
  • If any zombies are detected, their amount will be shown above the player.
  • If no zombies are detected, your player will mention it.
  • But take care ! If the door is closed, you will have to peak it first which could possibly cause a creeking noise based on the health of the door and your sneaking skills: Nimble, Lightfoot, Sneaking.
  • Your traits can also influence your chance to cause a creeking noise: Graceful, Inconspicuous, Conspicuous, Clumsy.

Customize your experience:
  • Change your keybind in the options ! (Category mods for B42)
  • Adapt your sandbox options to your liking ! You can increase the radius which the character checks for zombies. You can chose to show the zombie position or not.
  • Chose the lore name of the zombies ! This can also be forced with a mod (check the next part about modder's documentation).
Customization available to other modders
Other modders can easily modify the mod and its parameters ! Add your own voicelines or modify the name to show above zombies or in the voicelines ! For example, The Last of Us Infected will not mention "zombies" but instead "infected".

DISABLED FOR B42

Native compatibility with Zomboid Forge ! This will show the nametag of the zombie type instead of simply "zombie" above their head and take into consideration the nametag options of the user (font, duration...).
DISABLED FOR B42

You can check for Spore Zones within buildings thanks to this mod. Simply check behind a window or a door, or peak a door and a custom voiceline will play that indicates for spore zones if present !

Patch out. Was my own mistake

This will most likely reset your keybind for checking windows or doors

I am also getting the issue of Check Stairs keybind not being saved. Check Windows/doors saves just fine.
