I don't know, maybe this is one of those things which work best when you simplify it for the game.

If you add a near-sighted vs far-sighted trait with equal points, then player's will quickly figure out which one is the least obstructive to gameplay. 

I imagine being near-sighted is less annoying than far-sighted, when you loose your glasses during combat you'd still have good vision directly around you so it wouldn't impact gameplay.

And stuff which doesn't impact gameplay is unnescessarry bloat IMO.

 

It would impact gameplay... I thought about 2-3 tiles around you, so using guns effectively would be out of the question. It would also impact foraging massively, I guess.

-5.25 / -5.00 I know how the blurry world looks like *g I just suggest that there should be a small area in front where the character can see "near normal" and further away it gets gradually blurrier.

Finally, short-sightedness gets a visual effect! \o/ One feature I'm waiting since forever =) However you may think about a more distance-related blur instead of this all-out-blurry-vision, it is WIP I know... super-excited right now!

[Make Destroyed Buildings Behave Like Destroyed Buildings]

xD Take this you damn burglar!

[Wind chimes and makeshift wind/water/rain powered noise makers.]

+1 for loose shutters

[Ideas for more real to life NPC behavior.]

I don't think that you can simply project how humans behavior in a disaster that is focused on a region and has a definitive end to the apocalypse where society basically collapsed and no jurisdiction exists any longer

[educational vhs tapes]

Yes watching those videos will (hopefully) prevent injuries but it won't really increase the effect the training has. You will still need a few weeks of hard and disciplined training.. that's just how it is. 

[Build 42 modern bows]

Yes that is a saw. I agree with your post though.

[Compatibility with M1/M2 Macs]

@SalmonAs a workaround would GeForce NOW (or any other games streaming service) be an option, provided it's available in your region?

If you have a decent internet connection...

[Ratatouille]

Yeah definitely! Great idea

[Expanded Vanila Firearms (Rebalance etc)]

There are the msr700 and 788? where you can attach a 8x scope... than it's 20-30 tiles (not that much, I know)

[Project Zomboid - This is how it Dies.]

Totally in on it... where should I send my money to? I also want the premium 1-week-season pack with extra loot and exclusive starting crowbar

[Adding New Weapons]

How so? 

Maybe it's more like a "feeling" related to your playstyle or expectation than a real fact? You could and should try some of the firearms mods that are available, I suppose?

Don't get me wrong I'd like to see a little variation in the firearms I find myself, especially civilian - military it makes sense that it comes down to the m16 (and nothing else or little else at least). That doesn't mean it would make the game "better", because in what perspective?

[Adding New Weapons]

Yes and I asked why do you think that? What would be better if you had another assault rifle or another pistol? I'd honestly like to know

[Remote Controllers for TVs]

+1 from my side!

[Adding New Weapons]

Why do you think you need more guns?

rifles such as Glock 19

??...a Glock 19 (and 17) is a pistol and Glock never made any rifles... well at least until recently but definitely not in the 90's

[Compass]

Player knowledge vs char knowledge on rp servers is the only but best argument in favor of the compas implementation I suppose... second!

[Project Zomboid - This is how it Dies.]

...made my day! xD

[Few sugestions - pickling, maps, etc...]

+1 to all of them!

 

Ad zombie types: There is a mod "Random Zombies" where you can configure the distribution of the various speeds for zombies - works like a charm on our dedicated MP server.

[Turning Off Radios / TVs Should Close Their UI]

Jup +1

[Inability to Eat Disgusting Things Absent High Hunger]

A cool idea! But the character should be desensitized at a real slow rate. It should take a while to get rid of this trait (to prevent it being basically freebie-points) and the consequences should be harsh at first... maybe you could feel sick after the first few times you do this - feeling "queasy" maybe even get "nauseous" for a few hours, like you had poisoned yourself?

Could be worth 3 or 4 points, I guess.

[Winter temperatures should cool the food down]

Aaah... thx

[Winter temperatures should cool the food down]

As a matter of fact there are many "oversimplified" things in the game already for the sake of playability... and that makes totally sense, because many activities would be extremely tedious or complicated otherwise.

 

However I get your point and it was never my intention to unnecessarily stretch this thread.

 

One question though: What means MO? Short for motivation?

[Winter temperatures should cool the food down]

Noone talked about freezing, just keeping fresh... at about 2-7 degree celsius (sry I'm from europe). My point is that in the game in late november temp is around 0-3 degrees most of the time... so realistically I could keep food fresh outside.

 

As for the root cellar... yes, that would be the sensible thing to do and I would love to build such a thing in pz but since this is not possible...

[Winter temperatures should cool the food down]

Even if it's not "that cold in winter" I bet it's cold enough to keep food on the balcony over night without trouble and I also think such mechanic wouldn't need to be totally accurate. It should still be play- and manageable after all. At the moment it's actually way more unrealistic as the cold does nothing to your food and that makes no sense at all. 

I get that it is complicated to implement if you try to factor in all environmental aspects like sunny days or wind... but a simple mechanic based on outside temperature only would be enough for most players I guess.
