Has Been Read

Streamline Your Looting with the “Has Been Read” Mod

In the unforgiving world of Project Zomboid, every second counts, especially when you’re scavenging for vital resources. While Build 42 introduces some vanilla improvements for tracking read materials, the “Has Been Read” mod offers a more proactive approach. Instead of simply marking what you’ve consumed, this mod focuses on highlighting what you *need* to engage with next, transforming your looting runs from guesswork to a strategic hunt.

Identify Essential Reading Instantly

The core of this mod lies in its intuitive visual cues. Say goodbye to sifting through your inventory, trying to remember if that magazine contained a crucial recipe or if that book was only halfway finished. “Has Been Read” clearly distinguishes between different stages of engagement with your reading materials.

Key Features at a Glance:

• Unread Books: Marked with a clear “?” icon, these are your priority grabs, including skill books you haven’t reached the max level for.
• Partially Read Items: Indicated by an “!” symbol, these show you what’s left to complete, ensuring no knowledge is left behind.
• Fully Read Items: Displayed with their standard icon, these are neatly organized and out of your immediate focus.
• Customizable Marks: Tailor the mod to your playstyle with extensive options. You can choose which item types display marks, toggle specific mark types (unread, incomplete, or even a custom “read” checkmark), and enable/disable target or self-marking indicators.

Enhanced Looting and Survival

Whether you’re deep into Build 41 or embracing the changes in Build 42, this mod provides invaluable UI assistance for survival-focused gameplay. It’s particularly effective during frantic looting sessions where quick decisions are paramount. The mod also offers options for auto-marking items as you pick them up, further streamlining your inventory management.

The “Has Been Read” mod is designed to be a seamless addition, compatible with multiplayer and offering robust configuration. It even provides support for modded books that adhere to vanilla implementation, ensuring broader compatibility. Dive into a more organized and efficient Project Zomboid experience – let “Has Been Read” guide your next literary discovery.
