Scanner Module: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 06:13, 9 January 2024

A scanner module is a currently useless electrical item.

Usage

Scanner modules serve no purpose in the game. They cannot be dismantled or crafted into anything. Currently they mostly serve to provide realism to the player while looting.

Distribution

Scanner modules can be found in radio factories, closets, garages, self storage units, in electricians crates and metal shelves.

Trivia

In Project Zomboid directory/media/lua/server/recipecode.lua, there exists a function to obtain the item named DismantleRadioSpecial, though it is never called.
While a model exists in the game's files, it has no texture. When the item is dropped in game it shows the 2D icon on the ground.
