Grampa Message is a unique VHS providing some lore. A reminder of how it was before.

Usage

The VHS can be used with an appropriate television to play the dialog of a grandson recorded a message for the grandfather who is in the hospital or in the nursing home.

The player can reduce boredom by -5 for each line of dialog when in the vicinity of a television playing the VHS.

Distribution

The loot distributions can be found in the table(s) below.

Effective chance calculations are based off of default loot settings, and median zombie density. The higher the density of zombies in an area, the higher the effective chance of an item spawning. Chance is also influenced by the lucky and unlucky traits.

Containers

Building/Room	Container	Effective chance
livingroom	shelves	10.78%

This VHS will only spawn once and only in living room shelves, making it incredibly rare.
