Weakening Zombies (Real time)

Description
VERSION INFORMATION
SUPPORTED VERSION: Build 41
For bugfixes, see the "known issues" thread in the discussions.


WHAT THIS MOD DOES:
This mod makes zombies have less health over time. Health and ONLY health will be affected. This includes already spawned zombies in the current cell. Zombies you haven't encountered already (i.e. in other cells) are not affected. When you move into a new cell, then that health penalty will be applied to the zombies in that cell, but not before you cross over the border. The penalty is global and recalculated every 24 ingame hours.


EFFECT:
Zombies will be weaker over time, as time progresses by ticking down HP.


HOW IT WORKS:
See the discussion topic "How does it work."


COMPATIBILITY:
There should be no collisions with other mods. Also, I have tried making it as configurable as possible - if you want to shoot yourself in the foot i believe you should be able to. Just don't blame me.

This mod works well with the mod "Combat Text", it shows the current health of zombies as they are dispatched and every day that number will be decreasingly smaller as zombies gets weaker.

Performance is still adjustable, but i suggest keeping on or above the default performance values.


NOTE:
This mod uses the Sandbox Variables for configuration, so you have to enable it in the mod menu, as well as the Server settings (MP) for it to take effect.

The European Union has classified russia as supporter of terrorism. Mod is disabled on russian setups. I have no obligation to create mods that works for everyone.

There is Combat Text, but it only shows a healthbar of total health.

If you turn on debugging on this mod, you can see exactly how much current and max HP a specific zombie has. Debugging isn't pretty but it shows what you want, it unfortunately also reveals hidden zombies, but hey - it's meant for debugging, not cheating.

The real zombie health value is a floating point value, like 0.98 or 1.23 meaning 98 hp and 123 hp though.

An extra question, is it a mod you use to see the health of the zombies?
CarlosRojasCu 24 Jul, 2024 @ 11:26am 
@Ichinin That's great, thanks for the quick response. I hope someone has the idea and does it, I would do it myself, but my knowledge about coding and other things like that is low, I will investigate anyway, thank you very much for this. :)

@CarlosRojasCu Currently no plans for that, but if someone want to make the opposite they can use my mod as a base and go from there.

I love the idea of ​​this mod, aren't you planning to make a reverse variant? That is, instead of losing health, they gain more health up to a certain limit. Thank you
