Longer trails with custom trail node length!

Hair length affects scent.

Farts?

Probably the effect to fade away if raining. The heavier the rain the less the smell affects you

Maybe a Moodle to indicate your smell level?

This one is already in there, it checks for rain and snow, checks for high humidity and will reduce the scent based on that.

That is a great idea. I will make sure to get one added so players have some visibility on it. Thanks!

Oh this is awesome!! I play with Wandering Zombies and Definitive Zombies as well and I have configured that rains reduces their senses so having that also the smell is also reduced makes the rain to be my best oportunity to go out haha
I'm testing this mod and definitely will be part of my modlist! congratz

Awesome I appreciate that! - Please feel free to provide any feedback, ideas, experiences or anything at all about it. In the early days here I want to try and get some as much as possible tuned in based on user feedback. :)

I just realised, did you think about a mod integration with the Excrementum mod, or would that be too much trouble than it's worth? Sounds funny to go for a pooper and suddenly a horde of zombies appearing because you smell so bad.

Great mod idea, it is configurable ? i didn't try it... By reading the description its an immersion breacking (for exemple the perfume, long hair or hands).
Maybe you should release a version where the survivor attract zombies if they are wounded (even more if bleeding) and dirty only... Maybe add a debuff if the player eat beans or stale food. Just like cough in vanilla that simulate fart.

Added a widget that can be opened using a right click on the world, if the sandbox option is enabled. Similar to a Moodle but I did a bit different for some reason. :)

Blind option so Zombies cannot see and are only able to detect the player when they're too close to it. That way they track the player through sound and smell.

Hello! Me again. Been using the mod for a while and in combination with other zombie mods it completely changed how I play PZ after 3k hours, congratz!
I wanted to mention, as you can take adventage of the rain, fog and snow, maybe a disadventage could be great, during high temperatures to increase your scent :)
