Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Firearms and various backpacks found in the field just laying on the ground and dropping from zombies appear in mint condition while most other items dont.

Describe the solution you'd like

Firearms and various backpack get the same amount of wear and tear as other items.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Leaving as is or adding more drops from zombies that are in mint condition and only dirty

Additional context

Weapons in particular as rifle found on the ground would receive at least some damage being exposed to elements, as well as exposed to pre cataclysm warfare and posts cataclysm. Usage by troops and laying in dirt for nearly a week should leave it in need of cleaning and at least basic repair. While bagpacks are mostly just distracting in their inconsistency, spawning weapons damaged could add some more room to progression so you dont just walk out of rhe shelter rung grab and AR next to military zombies and gun them all down with said AR.

Contributor guide

Research direction: Investigate the current durability system for firearms and backpacks in the game code. Look at how other items derive their condition from spawning or usage. Identify where the inconsistency arises and propose modifications to apply wear and tear to these items similarly. Consider adding randomness or based on environment exposure.
