Introduction
Alright, hi guys. So, I've been thinking about this for a while and decided to go through with it with the help of various people throughout the SoD modding community (see Credits).

What is it so far?
Here's a list of changes in this version:
Story, Breakdown & Lifeline:
-Vehicle inventories changed for more realistic space.
-Killing freaks grants a small amount of influence and wits XP.
-Penalties for Cardio and Wits have been decreased to more reasonable but still annoying levels.
-Mount Tanner Bridge Fixed.
-Fixed the missing personalities for YOSE characters.
-Parking Spots can be removed to build more facilities.
-Renamed Firebombs to Molotov Cocktails and Petrol Bombs to Fuel Bombs, along with many other name and description changes.
-Added a couple recipes (Mostly in breakdown).
-Tweaked ammunition stack sizes.
-Backpacks renamed with identifiers to be replaced with descriptions.
-Allowed both a Melee and Firearm specialization (A recreation of SilentAssassin's mod since she appears to have abandoned us, independent version here: http://www.nexusmods.com/stateofdecay/mods/341).
-Removed intro movies.
-Consolidated the types of painkillers, stimulants and noisemakers of the same strength into single variants to save inventory space and storage space.
-Added the fancy movie prop swords, ice axe, buzzball bat, etc to search lists. Added fire department weapons to the fire department location.
-Research now no longer requires facilities (other than the library) or resources, but you don't get the items after researching, you have to then craft them at that facility.
Story & Breakdown Only:
-Massive recipe changes focussing on the workshop for now. Upgrade a munitions or machine shop to a fabrication shop to see the majority of the new stuff (Story & Breakdown only).
What else is coming?
Fixing the Story workshop problem is my number one priority, then will be Lifeline facility changes to make them more military-like. For t1.04 I will also be adding my own setup for breakdown which will add many more levels.
Install?
Extract into /State of Decay/Game/.
Uninstall?
Remove the /libs/ and /objects/ folders from "Game".
What Hoops Do I Have To Jump Through?
To make full use of this mod, you will have to restart campaigns, however if you wish to make partial use of it, including the recipes, I don't foresee any game breaking bugs by continuing from a saved game. The only exception to this appears to be the resetting of "The Dealer" challenge, if it is not yet complete, caused by editing the vehicles.win.bmd file. At least, I believe this is the cause. It will likely have a lot of incompatibilities simply because State of Decay only has one possible plugin per file without splicing things together, if you want to see a mod added to this mod(pack), please suggest it and if I think it would improve the experience of it, I will happily seek permission for its use.
