Aging Mod

Description
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
This mod aims to give the player more immersion by introducing aging that eventually leads to death. The game will then have an ultimate goal: to live long enough to die of old age. The mid-term goal is for aging to affect the character’s abilities due to the frailties of age, ultimately leading to death. In this scenario, you won’t just be fighting zombies, but also time itself.

So far, the features that should be implemented are:

Implemented features:

1- Character aesthetic changes (hair color).
2- Random death by old age between 70 and 100 years old.
3- Character age displayed when pressing "U" (Configurable in options).
4- Age options configurable from the options menu.
5- Configurable year duration (No, you don't have to play a real year if you don't want to, but you can).
6- Higher chance of getting sick and experiencing negative effects at an advanced age.
7- Greater loss of physical condition at an advanced age (you'll still be strong if you train, but you'll lose condition faster, which will lead to having to train more often).
8- Add the option in the configuration menu to disable all negative effects and keep only the aesthetic part, or vice-versa.
9- Include effects for ages 80 and 90 that make these stages more challenging.
10- Create 3 difficulty levels for negative effects and allow their intensity to be configured from the mod's configuration menu.

Single-player only for now.

The mod is ready and it's what I wanted, but if you have any suggestions, I'm open to all of them in the comments.
If you find a bug, please give me all the details you can in the comments and I'll try to fix it as soon as possible.

Thank you!

@Stitch, if you configure the bday every day you just have to survive like 30/40 days. hahaha

@Vivi, That sounds amazing, I cannot wait to see what potential changes you bring to this mod. I just switched to 42 and immediately had remembered this mod.

Hi @Sam, you're totally right, there is not Wrinkles on the mod but, I have scheduled to work on it during summer. I hope it will be ready at the end of august.

Are Wrinkles a thing in this mod? if not should definitely be added eventually

Thanks for the note. I'll add it to the mod text so people know, and I'll try to fix it, though it's complicated because the age mod is handled internally from the very beginning of the game, including hair color, so it's a complex fix. It's best to start a new game with it.
