Burglar Alarm System (Works For Mods!) 5

Burglar alarm system for all vehicles

  1. S.Ali.M
    Hello everyone!

    This mod adds burglar alarm system to all vehicles, even modded ones!


    How to use this mod?

    Install the system on your car. For most cars, it's in navigation unit slot:
    common_slot.jpg

    But
    For the Wigeon it's in the shift light slot:
    wigeon_slot.jpg

    For the Bolide is in the body accessories slot:
    bolide_slot.jpg

    And for the bus, is in the body accessory slot:

    After installing, extend its tab, then you'll see some new slots:
    list.jpg

    The first one is the alarm audio. In this slot you choose an audio to play when the system starts warning. There are 7 sirens to choose from.
    If you choose one of them you'll see a variable in Burglar Alarm category in the tuning menu which changes the alarm siren volume:

    You can also choose "Horn" if you want the car to use the car's horn as alarm audio.
    If you choose it, you'll see 2 variables in Burglar Alarm category in the tuning menu:
    honk_wait.jpg
    The first one, changes how long the vehicle honks.
    And the second one changes how long the vehicle waits between each horn.
    This video can help you understand what I said:


    You can also use both siren and horn at the same time. Here's an example:


    You can choose "No Alarm Audio (Silent Alarm)" too, then the vehicle will turn on its hazard lights only.


    The second slot is the blip audio. In this slot you choose an audio to play when you activate/deactivate the burglar alarm system. It plays when you stop the alarm too. There are 5 audios to choose from. You can also choose "No Blip Audio" if you don't like blip sounds.


    The third slot is called "Automatic Window Lifter". If you install openable windows on your vehicle (using Jamie599's
    openable windows mod) and choose automatic window lifter in this slot too, when you park your car with opened windows and you activate burglar alarm system, it closes the windows automatically:



    The other 3 slots are called hood sensor, door sensors and trunk/tailgate sensor. Here you can read what does each sensor do if you install it on your vehicle:
    Hood sensor:
    If you install hood sensor on your vehicle, if you break the latch of the hood of your vehicle, your vehicle will start warning.

    Door sensors:
    1. If you install door sensors on your vehicle, if you break the latch of one of the doors of your vehicle, your vehicle will start warning.
    2. If you open one of the doors of your vehicle (using Jamie599's openable mod), then try to activate burglar alarm system on your vehicle, your vehicle will start warning. You need to close all doors before activating burglar alarm system.

    Trunk/tailgate sensor:
    1. If you install trunk/tailgate sensor on your vehicle, if you break the latch of trunk (or tailgate) of your vehicle, your vehicle will start warning.
    2. If you open the trunk or tilgate of your vehicle (using Jamie599's openable mod), then try to activate burglar alarm system on your vehicle, your vehicle will start warning. You need to close the trunk or tailgate of your vehicle before activating burglar alarm system.

    Sensors video:




    Now go to the tuning menu to adjust the alarm sensitivity:

    Keep in mind higher value means lower sensitivity, and lower sensitivity means more damage is needed to turn on the alarm.
    If you set it to zero, even touching the vehicle will be enough to turn on the alarm:


    After adjusting the alarm sensitivity (if needed) you're done! Now you can park you car and activate burglar alarm system. But how to activate burglar alarm system?
    Go to Options > Controls, open Vehicle category, now you can see 4 new controls:
    controls.jpg

    The first one activates/deactivates the burglar alarm system on your current vehicle.
    The second one activates/deactivates the burglar alarm system on the vehicle clicked on. This action requires a mouse click binding (e.g. left-click, middle-click, Shift left-click, Ctrl middle-click)
    The third one stops the alarm audio and turns off the hazard lights, but keeps the burglar alarm system active on you current vehicle.
    The forth one stops the alarm audio and turns off the hazard lights, but keeps the burglar alarm system active on the vehicle clicked on. This action requires a mouse click binding (e.g. left-click, middle-click, Shift left-click, Ctrl middle-click)

    Here's a small movie I made to show you how the "Toggle By Clicking" works:


    Those controls have no default bindings, so you need to assign bindings for them yourself.

    After assigning bindings for those controls, turn off your engine, activate burglar alarm system and enjoy using the mod!
    Btw, as you can't turn off the engine in an electric car, you should set the gear to N or P to activate burglar alarm system.

    This mod has been tested on ETK 1300 and 1994 ETK K-Series. In theory, it should work on all mods. Let me know if it doesn't work on a certain mod.

    this is truly an amazing mod, another thing that would be cool is if we could lock the car doors and when they are locked and we try to open the driver door a certain amount of times, it could set off the alarm?

    I got the mod, but whenever I pick the alarm config, and crash the car with the node grabber, nothing happens. Could you help me out?
