I made a similar mod Customizable Grabby Zombies that takes into account zombies strength, your strength and your endurance to calculate the slow factor. You can customize everything.

Well, I just played a few runs and went from barely dying and being bored and stuffed with loot to dying 3 times without making it past the first day of the game with the last touches I made and mods that added hahaha. I managed to create a very hard challenge without using sprinters or hardcore things like that.

About evening things i am not sure it happened since the other mod makes you push in half the normal time while this one slows your movement down, so apparently this one prevails.

this mod makes it a lot harder to escape a stunlock, using both mods would probably just even things out again

Would the mod "50 Percent Faster Zombie Hit Reactions" help with the long stun some people reffers to? i will uso both of them before you get to answer but still asking to know in case i dont get to notice while playing.

took a look myself, no idea why they would put that in there

seems like the map mod Cathaya 2.0 packs this (or dangerous zombies?) into their map mod for whatever reason. It throws some 'severe' stack trace errors on load when is why I saw it. ZombieGr.lua related. Unsure if said thing means it's actually applying in game, I've never paid attention to if zombies slow me when they attack. I am getting slowed now in a way now, but I digress.

Just commenting since unsure if you know, was definitely a surprise to see some random stack trace from a map addition to the server.

dangerous zombies slows you down when you collide with a zombie, this slows you when they start attacking

difference between this and dangerous zombies?

made a version for b42 real quick

After playing with this mod for so long vanilla feels so easy and forgiving, even with increased population lol. I know Build 42 has only been out for a day and I'm sorry for asking, but, any thoughs on updating it through unstable or will you wait 'till stable? Love your mod! Thanks.

Only usable for single player because in multiplayer everybody is extremely slow and is not synced right

let me grab THEM let me choke them then headbutt them

Pretty cool, but my only complaint is that the slowing effect lingers even if the zombie gets knocked down or killed during its attack animation. The slow needs to be nullified whenever you actually take action against the attacker.

I absolutely love this mod, makes the zobbos threatening as hell.

i dont have zomboid installed or the mod files so i cant really guide you on this, sorry.
Ben_OnAir 3 Dec, 2023 @ 11:17am 
but can I edit the files on the server? Which file I should edit?
Lieutenant Laxative  [author] 3 Dec, 2023 @ 10:53am 
yeah you gotta edit the files
Ben_OnAir 3 Dec, 2023 @ 8:22am 
@lieutenant Laxative
I checked the files and saw that you can configure the stat settings, however can't find a sandbox option of mod option.
Do I need to edit the files? Doing that for a server

Is it safe to remove from an existing save? Thanks.

glad you like it

currently using this mod for my roleplay server and it makes people fear for their lives its great.
Bostson 22 Aug, 2023 @ 1:10pm 
mod is good but after the grab you get locked for too long, should have options to tweak the value, it's feeling too much like an artificial stun, where their animation already stopped but my characters is still locked
Bombingham 15 Aug, 2023 @ 11:47pm 
awesome!
Lieutenant Laxative  [author] 15 Aug, 2023 @ 11:45am 
yes
Bombingham 15 Aug, 2023 @ 6:48am 
Does it work in MP?
Ymir 30 May, 2023 @ 1:20pm 
Okay, so?
JayHog1992 30 May, 2023 @ 1:17pm 
I was hoping to find a mod that does the reverse and instead never grabs, only slaps.

Add a "sprinters only", Weak attacks and never get infected and you can basically play an open world version of Left 4 Dead.
Lieutenant Laxative  [author] 30 May, 2023 @ 11:44am 
no problem
kirbo-master 30 May, 2023 @ 10:01am 
Thanks for making my life even harder:steamthumbsup:
HL_scientist 16 May, 2023 @ 10:21am 
An absolutely horrible mod, good job!
Lieutenant Laxative  [author] 1 May, 2023 @ 5:44am 
i havent tried myself but they probably conflict
Appleshark 30 Apr, 2023 @ 6:47pm 
Can we use both mods at the same time or do they conflict?
dinomase 28 Apr, 2023 @ 10:06pm 
The person below me made an awesome mod.
Lieutenant Laxative  [author] 27 Feb, 2023 @ 7:17am 
dz slows you if you bump into a zombie this slows you when they attack
NerdEmoji 26 Feb, 2023 @ 12:32pm 
What's the difference with DZ, these seem like the same mod
Acid Green 13 Feb, 2023 @ 9:15am 
;-;
Lieutenant Laxative  [author] 13 Feb, 2023 @ 9:13am 
no
Acid Green 13 Feb, 2023 @ 8:41am

NorscanWarlord 30 Oct, 2022 @ 7:49pm

Lieutenant Laxative  [author] 1 Oct, 2022 @ 2:29pm
