Bathing and showering buff

So I know this was rejected originally due to taking away from the game. But what if it wasn't like a mandatory thing. Instead you can just do it to get a slight boost similar to how sleeping 8 hours in Skyrim or Fallout 4 gives you well rested bonus? So it would be a squeaky clean bonus but wouldn't have any effect if you chose to never use it?

I think shower should definetly be implemented, doesnt have to be graphically fancy, just a bar loading, much like foraging, and at the end your happiness would increase. I think boredom and unhappiness are OP at the moment. Spending the night indoors reading a book, would not be upsetting, considering outside lurks death. So extra perks like shower to raise our mood would definetly be helpful

 this is actually a planned feature in the PZ Vanilla Patch Mod along with brushing teeth, wearing make up and lipstick and playing rubber ducky (beware tho showering causes noise and noise attract zombies).

 

you can find the mod here:

Bathing is already included in the PZ Vanilla Patch mod (you currently can bath in the shower and in bath tubs also if you fancy you can try bathing in the river.

If zombies could smell you, or track you by smell across distance. I would say this would be awesome, +1 Showers.


But if there are no plans for zed smell. It doesn't seem like it matters, at least to me personally. 

For now its a roleplay thing only Lol but later it hopefully can add a "Great Confidence" trait that will boost stuff that you do in the apocalyse. Looking good while surviving has its perks :P

It could also wake you up if cold and make you sleepy if warm. Also it could reducer stress. Bubble baths could also be nice and it could be as simple as removing clothing and items like backpacks for a second and then "waking up/getting out" with it back on unless interrupted. Possible idea.

Its currently lowers stress and bored status also increase wetness if you have no towel. Since the game i think ties ability to sleep with tiredness its a bit hard to make bathing produce sleepy effect without causing player to get tired :( bubble bath is currently not available yet but might come in in the future.

If zombies are just reanimated humans why would they have a sense of smell any better than a typical human?

Why not, they are reanimated humans. This is totally the realm of science fiction. You have suspended your disbelief so far on something that will never happen. What about thermal vision, I remember that was apart of zombie lore. There is all kinda of weird stuff we can accept if we choose to.

Thermal vision doesn't make any sense either lol

I guess all I'm saying is zombies shouldn't be physically superior to living humans since all they are is moving corpses, if anything they should be physically detrimented compared to live humans

ZOMBIES WITH THERMAL VISION?!?!?!? Game breaking stuff... All they are, are just "dust in the win" ;P (Move here for actual post) Arn't zombies also supposed to be super stronk? if they can bust through glass by smearing their face on it they must be pretty strong, and i think you would give yourself brain damage before busting down and window or door with your head

You'd be surprised at the durability of the skull...

Sure, you'd be disoriented by the pain and possibly have a very minor concussion but since their brains barely function and they don't seem to feel pain then I guess it doesn't really matter.

No it isnt part of lore. Also i could see it as an option so reason to keep your rooms warm opr cold to hide yourself but i feel it would be too op otherwise.
