That's the thing, you shouldn't be able to use them at all, because how much sense does it make? None. How unfair is it? Very.

I'm not saying characters should freeze at this temperature. The character of the one's I quoted was feeling fine with a varsity jacket (which isn't really good at keeping you warm tbh) at 6 degrees, which is OK.

It already exists.

He's wearing a Tank top, t-shirt, denim shirt and a varsity jacket and his character is feeling fine. I didn't take hat and pants into account, because as you can see, those parts of his body are real warm. Idk about you, but that seems ok to me.

That seems reasonable. You ain't gonna walk around without a jacket at 6°C and feel comfortable.

So, recently I was thinking how can the crafting system be improved, and I came up with an idea of tool quality system. While it may not be a very hard thing to implement, I think it could make the crafting system a little bit more in-depth and allow to implement more complex crafts and tools. Firstly, how's it gonna look like? Every tool, or item that could be used as one, will have a quality of some sort. There will be five qualities: "awful", "bad", "normal", "good" and "excellent." So, for example, a simple stone would have a hammering quality of "awful", a club hammer — "good" and a proper hammer would have an "excellent" quality. Here's a quick mockup of how you'd check the quality of an item. What is it gonna do? Firstly, some of the crafting recipes and building stuff will require tools with different qualities, and depending on how high the quality of the tool is, time required and quality of the crafted item will change. Example: Hypotetical Mister X has caught a rabbit and he wants to butcher it. Depending on his own skill, quality of his workplace and quality of the tool he owns, the results will differ. So butchering with, let's say, a hunting knife is going to be faster, yield more useful parts and less garbage than butchering with a sharp stone. Same with tailoring, hammering, screwing, bolting, cooking and many other stuff that you can do. Secondly, some of the crafting recipes will have the lower limit of the required tool, which means you will have to find better tools than you already have. Example: Mr. X moved into a new place and he decided that the first thing he'll do will be barricading. Now, while that one stone in his backpack might be good enough for denting stuff, cracking nuts and breaking windows, it's not the best tool for hammering, and he'll have to find a better tool for that. Or, perhaps, make a stone hammer, which is good enough. What good is it gonna do? Well, besides making the crafting system at least somewhat better, it'd slightly improve devs' ability to add new crafting recipes and tools, because instead of manually adding every possible tool to the craft, they'll just need to assign the required quality and set quality definitions for the tool. Fin. Thx to ma boi Vunder from discord for helping me with pics.

Just decided to attach a screenshot of it's wild range. I could hit that zombie from this distance. Upd: it seems like some other new weapons have the same issues. E.g nightstick.

Or just make the reach shorter.

No. That's not what they said. They said that they had to make character stop while hitting to prevent Horde-slaughtering, but y'all find a convenient way to cheese through that. Good on you, "hunter."

You can't. At least not supposed to. Otherwise shit like you've shown in the video happens.

It is intended. Upon attack your character usually stops for a bit, then continues to walk. So yeah, you're cheesing.

^ Especially noticable when you fight a Z while moving backwards. At some point the model won't even reach a Zombie, but hits will still register.

And you just want it to be more powerful? No, no thanks.

Wood axe is not supposed to be a very useful weapon. It's a tool to cut trees down after all.

By the way, unlike PZ's zombie virus, Rabies actually can be prevented by simple disinfection, especially if the wound has been disinfected immediately, so you don't always need to waste a vaccine.
