@Mitchel Vories :
Please let me know what do you think about that after testing.
I could possibly make some adjustments

Okay -- I'm going to give this a try. I've been using the other one forever, so I'll change it up and see what its like.

@Mitchel Vories :
"you won't have tons of books like others books mods"
=> It means with others mods you'll have a LOT of skill books per containers instead of no one in vanilla
It's due to PZ loot mechanics, more you add items lootable in a container, more you'll have items at the end. Sadly it"s not possible to fix a max number items per containers.. :(
=> my mod work in a total other way, like you said with a sort of randomization instead of adding all books in the lootable table. The result is less books per containers with all books possible everywhere :)

Well, I opened both mod's files up and it look like yours works off some sort of randomization and the other seems to physically insert all book types into certain locations.

When you say "tons of books like other books mods" are you saying that other similar mods add entertainment book in addition to skill books/recipe magazines? Or just that this mod adds skills books and recipe mags in a more balanced way? I have been using Rain's mod that does the same thing and I am just wondering what the difference might be.
