Configs
Global Settings:
{ "Version": "1.0.0", "Enable Hacking System": true, "Consume Tool On Hack": true, "Hacking Tool Item Shortname": "targeting.computer", "Tool Consume Amount": 1 }
Per-Crate Configuration Example:
"Military Crate": { "Enable": true, "Hack Duration": 18.0, "Hacking Tool": "techparts", "Tool Amount": 1, "Consume Tool On Hack": false, "Tool Durability Loss": 1.0, "Success Chance": 0.7, "Cooldown Between Hacks (seconds)": 45.0
Consume Tool On Hack:
true - Tool is consumed/damaged immediately when hacking starts
false - Tool is consumed/damaged only when hacking completes successfully
Tool Durability Loss:
This setting determines how much of the tool is consumed or damaged.
1. If the item has durability/condition (e.g., tools, weapons):
* The value represents condition points lost
* Example: 10.0 = lose 10 condition points
* If condition reaches 0, the item breaks
2. If the item has NO durability (e.g., resources like wood, scrap):
* The value is converted to whole numbers and consumed as item amount
* Example: 100.0 = consume 100 items
* Example: 1.5 = consume 2 items (rounded up)
