"Pipe Bombs" are LEGIT weapons in DayZ

[kicktd 42]

I noticed in another thread someone had looted some "pipe bombs" from a tent and everyone was telling him they were most likely hacked weapons, well believe it or not they are not, they are just an extremely rare spawn like the m16a4 and m107 spawning in the barracks. Proof? From the dayz_code.pbo bin file (arma 2 tools allows you to unpack pbo's and bin files):

class MilitarySpecial: Default {

zombieChance = 0.400000;

minRoaming = 2;

maxRoaming = 6;

zombieClass = {"z_soldier_heavy"};

lootChance = 0.400000;

lootPos = {};

itemType = {{"M16A2", "weapon"}, {"M16A2GL", "weapon"}, {"M249_DZ", "weapon"}, {"M9SD", "weapon"}, {"M136", "weapon"}, {"AK_47_M", "weapon"}, {"AK_74", "weapon"}, {"M4A1_Aim", "weapon"}, {"AKS_74_kobra", "weapon"}, {"AKS_74_U", "weapon"}, {"AK_47_M", "weapon"}, {"M24", "weapon"}, {"SVD_CAMO", "weapon"}, {"M1014", "weapon"}, {"M107_DZ", "weapon"}, {"DMR", "weapon"}, {"M4A1", "weapon"}, {"M14_EP1", "weapon"}, {"UZI_EP1", "weapon"}, {"Remington870_lamp", "weapon"}, {"glock17_EP1", "weapon"}, {"M240_DZ", "weapon"}, {"M4A1_AIM_SD_camo", "weapon"}, {"M16A4_ACG", "weapon"}, {"M4A1_HWS_GL_camo", "weapon"}, {"Mk_48_DZ", "weapon"}, {"M4A3_CCO_EP1", "weapon"}, {"AmmoBoxSmall_556", "object"}, {"AmmoBoxSmall_762", "object"}, {"NVGoggles", "weapon"}, {"Binocular", "weapon"}, {"ItemFlashlightRed", "military"}, {"ItemKnife", "military"}, {"ItemGPS", "weapon"}, {"ItemMap", "military"}, {"Binocular_Vector", "military"}, {"DZ_Assault_Pack_EP1", "object"}, {"DZ_Patrol_Pack_EP1", "object"}, {"DZ_Backpack_EP1", "object"}, {"", "medical"}, {"", "generic"}, {"", "military"}, {"PipeBomb", "magazine"}};

itemChance = {0.100000, 0.050000, 0.010000, 0.020000, 0.010000, 0.200000, 0.100000, 0.020000, 0.100000, 0.100000, 0.100000, 0.010000, 0.010000, 0.200000, 0.010000, 0.020000, 0.100000, 0.030000, 0.200000, 0.100000, 0.200000, 0.010000, 0.040000, 0.050000, 0.020000, 0.010000, 0.080000, 0.040000, 0.020000, 0.010000, 0.100000, 0.050000, 0.150000, 0.010000, 0.030000, 0.010000, 0.020000, 0.030000, 0.020000, 0.300000, 1.000000, 5.000000, 0.010000};

};

So if you find some pipe bombs don't ditch them and think they are hacked weapons, they are legit ;). Just thought I'd post this for anyone who wanted to know if they are legit or not.

They are called satchel charges in game.

Interesting.

This is the video / thread that was getting all of that 'hacked items, throw them away' chatter.

The scroll wheel / inventory calls them Satchel Charges, the DB calls them pipe bombs. Same thing.
