Learn To Drive

Description
The Sunday Driver trait is one of the most difficult in the game because it makes long-distance exploration slow and dangerous. How many times have you taken Sunday Driver and not been able to drive slightly off-road, or failed to run over a group of three zombies? The Learn To Drive mod balances Sunday Driver by allowing your character to gain driving experience and eventually lose the trait.

Basic features:
  • A character needs 60 in-game hours of driving on average to lose Sunday Driver.
  • Approximately 15 of those driving hours must be done at night.
  • If a character has enough overall driving experience in the day, but not at night, Sunday Driver will return nightly until enough night experience is gained.
  • The required driving experience is modified by the Fast / Slow Learner traits.

@DisgracedPilot,

No problem, i'm happy with the mod was just thinking of potential improvements as feedback to the player would do wonders to stop all the people saying that it doesn't work haha

@Jokemercy The mod does work, as far as I've tested it. The sixty-hour average is actually quite a lot of driving. If you got an unlucky roll, it might take even longer than that.

@Obi Wan Kenobi Sorry, this is a bit late, but it would be interesting to have a tooltip or something for it. I don't have a lot of development time these days, but I'll think about it. Maybe hovering over the Sunday Driver icon could show it.

I've had this installed for ages now, seems like, but I still have Sunday Driver. Starting to wonder if I've been trolled lol.

Is there any way to see how many hours you have driven at day/night so that you can track your progress towards removal of Sunday Driver?

Wonderful mod, thank you for creating it!

@DisgracedPilot that is a great idea... but still wouldnt help on towing cars if there are no zombies nearby

That's something I've always thought about- I wish the game had a way to provide realistic cars while still keeping that balance. I've been hit by one, even a small car really doesn't even notice a body bouncing off it's hood in terms of it's momentum.

@de$eever I think that the low acceleration does make some sense. Probably most inexperienced drivers aren't slamming the gas pedal.

This does give me an idea though. A character who is panicked should temporarily lose Sunday Driver or gain Speed Demon. I don't think that anyone would want to stick around when their car is surrounded by zombies. I'll think about it and see what I can implement.
Mad$kinny 11 Nov, 2023 @ 3:17pm 
the game should only limit the speed, not the acceleration tho

@Hilvon Thanks for the feedback. The Speed Demon trait will definitely not be gained by default. I like the idea to have a magazine. When I have more development time, I'll try to put something together.
