    grammarsalad reacted to bliss in Prettier patches with higher Tailoring level   
    Title says it all.
    Cloth patches' textures are the same for all tailoring levels. Some modders are trying to address it but should be in base game IMO.

    grammarsalad reacted to Memo in Bleeding should be more dangerous   
    Bleeding can be deadly by itself, but it's so easy to manage it. 
    Bleeding in game has no severity (Not counting multiple bleeding from multiple injuries) like scratch and laceration with are moderated and severe severity. 
    Bleeding should have severity like injuries mentioned above affecting the player's health depending in how severe the bleeding is. 
    A severe bleeding is very deadly and can't be stopped 100% with just a simple dirty rag like it is in game.
    Source : https://myhealth.alberta.ca/Health/Pages/conditions.aspx?hwid=not12828&lang=en-ca
     
    I suggest adding a mechanic to determine how severe the bleeding is with First aid skill and the need to put multiple bandages on injuries, if not, the bleeding will passtrought the bandage and continue bleeding making the player lose HP even if barely bandaged. 
     
    I also suggest making the character slowly getting anxious when they get injured since Physical health affects Mental health causing PTSD / Anxiety

    grammarsalad reacted to Nowthere27 in Useable Desktop Computers   
    I think there should be desktop computers (in the houses for example) that the player could use to play games to decrease boredom or make a list to keep track of things.
     
    There are computers in the police stations but those aren't useable. 
     
    They had internet back in 1993 mainly in the form of the bulletin board system btw so maybe there could be some internet functionality too.

    grammarsalad got a reaction from tyzombie in Need Light to Read   
    Maybe in lower light, reading is slowed as it is harder to make out the words, and so understand sentence in context, etc. 
     
    And, if there is no light, then it's impossible to read.
     
    The effect should be mitigated by cat's eyes

    Immersive Medicine
    Extension of default medicine
     
    Are you tired of the same type of meds? Are you surprised that in this world, all treatment consists of taking antidepressants and painkillers?I think I've found a solution for you. Meet: Immersive Medicine
     
    Blood transfusion system
    Do you think it's enough to monitor the character's default health? You're wrong.

    Now you need to monitor the blood volume in your body:
    Slight blood loss: slight fatigue and drowsiness; Moderate blood loss: cold sweat, thirst; Critical blood loss: blurred vision, feeling cold; Fatal blood loss: complete exhaustion - don't forget to bring an obol with you  
    Does the last point sound scary? Put the white slippers aside! Either stock up on blood packs of your group in advance, or ask your friend. Just be careful: suddenly he is infected or his group simply does not suit you.
     
    Becoming a donor is easy. You need: a blood testing kit, an empty blood bag, a catheter for intravenous transfusion. And a refrigerator. If you overdo it and you need to store a friend or blood bags somewhere.
    To perform a blood transfusion, you need to select either the right or left forearm in the health panel
     
    Blood pressure and pulse systems
    Now your character has a pulse and pressure in addition to the blood system!
     
    To determine the pulse, you need to select either the forearms, neck or groin in the health panel.
    But I have a better solution for you - Sport Tester Knox Electro KE 3000
    This wristband will show your pulse in real time!

     
    To determine the pressure of the character, you will need the Tonometer Nanasonic EW3039S!

    All you need is just press the button.
     
    Drugs and dosage forms
    I have a whole line of drugs in store for you. There are not many of them yet, but the list will be replenished:
    Alkagine - an analgesic non-narcotic agent; Bismuth subsalicylate - anti-ulcer and antidiarrheal agent; Morphine - an opioid analgesic; Butamirate - antitussive agent; Naloxone - an opioid receptor antagonist; HemoStop - hemostatic powder; Umifenovir - an antiviral agent; Nasivion - nasal drops; Erythropoietin - in sports, it is doping;  
    You can find more information about the drugs here: Guide
     
    Morphine, naloxone... It sounds simple: take a syringe, stick a needle and let it run through the veins, what will come to mind? What if there are no syringes and needles in stock?
     
    Dosage forms
    Oral: tablets, syrups, liquids (to take the drug, you need to select the head in the health panel); Parenteral: intramuscular and intravenous injections (to inject the drug, you need to select a body part in the health panel); Topical: creams, powders (to apply the drug, you need to select a body part in the health panel); Nasal: drops (to apply the drug, you need to select the head in the health panel);  
    Found ampoules of alkagine, but no syringes? - Just drink the contents! Just don't drink too much. You're not a doctor to prescribe a dosage for yourself.
     
    And how to find out the dosage and avoid an overdose? These are the questions you should ask yourself first!
    The first aid skill or trait "Pharmacist" will come to the rescue. With the help of them, you will be able to determine the maximum dose, know about side effects, and also identify unknown drugs.
     
    Traits
    Pharmacist - can identify drugs. Knows everything about the composition of medicines and indications for their use; Universal donor - can become a donor for all other blood groups; Universal recipient - can accept blood of all other blood groups; High pain threshold - able to tolerate very severe pain; Low pain threshold - very intolerant of pain; Opioid addiction - susceptibility to opiates is reduced by 40%, the pain threshold is increased. You won't live a day without opiates;  
    Configuration for multiplayer and singleplayer
    In game configuration
    You can turn off the blood system - "Enable blood system" option (active by default). This means that the character will not lose blood, can become a donor indefinitely, and the blood type compatibility will not be checked. You can turn off the blood group system - "Enable blood groups" option (active by default) It is responsible only for the compatibility of blood groups. You can turn off the heartbeat sound - "Enable heartbeat sound" option (active by default)  
    Manual configuration
    You need to modify a file.
    Windows path: %HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%/Zomboid/Server/servertest_SandboxVars.lua Linux path: ~/Zomboid/Server/servertest_SandboxVars.lua "servertest" may be different if you use a custom server name. For example: myserver_SandboxVars.lua
     
    Append this to the bottom:
    ImmersiveMedicine = {     IsBloodSystemActive = true,     IsBloodTypeSystemActive = true,     IsHeartbeatEnabled = true, BloodVolumeReduceModifier = 25, BloodVolumeIncreaseModifier = 1, }

    grammarsalad reacted to Fenris_Wolf in Profession Framework Mod   
    Updated github with some cool changes:
    Added custom trait registration features similar to how professions are handled, including adjusting xp values, triggering of specific OnNewGame and OnGameStart events, and adding items to the players starting kit (both inventory and on floor)
     
    Example of adding a trait that causes the player to suffer nightmares:
    ProfessionFramework.addTrait('Nightmares', { name = "Nightmares", description = "Character occasionally suffers nightmares, waking from sleep in a panic", exclude = {"Desensitized"}, cost = -6, requiresSleepEnabled = true, inventory = { ["Base.PillsBeta"] = 1, ["Base.PillsSleepingTablets"] = 1, }, OnGameStart = function(trait) Events.EveryTenMinutes.Add(function() local p = getSpecificPlayer(0) if p:isAsleep() and ZombRand(100) < 2 then p:forceAwake() p:getStats():setPanic(90) end end) end })  
    Note: for the name and description fields, these can be basic strings or the name of a translation entry, more fields exist then what are shown in this example (see the documention comments in shared/2ProfessionFramework.lua for the ProfessionFramework.addTrait function)
     
    Other minor changes include some built in logging functions, renaming of client/ProfessionItems.lua to client/ProfessionFrameworkClient.lua,
    and moving of all profession 'special' traits (ie: brave2, lucky2) to a separate file using the new trait registration functions.

    grammarsalad reacted to Crotchfire in Either sewing needles more common or an improvised needle   
    In my most recent Survival game, I'd been looting for over a month and hadn't found any sewing needles.  So... maybe they could be found more commonly in houses or there'd be a way to improvise one?  Maybe carved out of wood, shaped from a paper clip, or somesuch?  An improvised sewing needle might have drawbacks, like when sewing a patch it might give you a lower effective tailoring level.

    When uninstalling parts from a car, make the part drop to the floor instead of going into the players inventory. Will make it less tedious to train mechanics, and no risk of a broken back.

    I think there should be a way to level up tailoring that is more than just adding and removing patches from clothing in the same way that there's more than one way to level up carpentry and metalworking without nails and welding rods. Currently the advancement of tailoring is limited by the amount of thread you can find (which is in opinoin not sufficient to reach any level beyond 6-7 let alone level 10) I suggest that cutting clothes with scissors give a small amount of tailoring xp in the same way that sawing logs gives a small amount carpentry xp. Just normally ripping sheets I don't think should give tailoring xp, but because you need a tool  to cut denim and leather clothes, i think it should have some small xp reward.

    1111. Toiler paper should be a real multi-tool as in real life:
    a) it should be used to contain sneezing (I think some mod allows that already)
    b) it should be used to dry the player
    c) it should be used as a fire starter
    d) potentially should also allow writing on it
    e) it would be funny, but it could also be used as a really low quality bandaid
     
    That alone would make it even more valuable than now!
