Footmuffin Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 I remember from the old forum that a user named Eairle suggested a sandbox thing that emulated the lore of "Autumn." They haven't come back since, and I'm reviving it since I thought it was neat and wanted to continue any discussion on the topic.A disease kills a tremendous number of the population, and a portion of those who died revived after a while and started walking about. They begin fairly senseless and slow, but become progressively faster and more intelligent as their bodies begin to crumble.Lots of still corpses everywhere, and practically no danger in the first week of play, but quickly gets more and more dangerous as they get more sensitive and cognitive with time.

Connall Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 A disease kills a tremendous number of the population, and a portion of those who died revived after a while and started walking about. They begin fairly senseless and slow, but become progressively faster and more intelligent as their bodies begin to crumble. How on earth does that work? For the most part I don't quite grasp the idea anyway. Why would Autumn cause the zombies to change? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fj45 Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 Nah, too much Dev time for something that only a small percentage of the player base will use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Footmuffin Posted December 2, 2013 Author Share Posted December 2, 2013 (edited) Actually, Autumn was a book. I haven't read it personally, but I think I might at least get the gist of the lore. Here's their post.http://theindiestone.com/community/viewtopic.php%3Ff=24&t=12818.htmlForgot to mention that again, this is something better suited for dev spare time.

Much rather they use that spare time on other things. Would be fine as a mod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rathlord Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 Although, it really wouldn't be hard at all to slowly change zombie values. You can already do this in reverse (have them degrade over time) so likely an option to have them grow over time would be a few minutes' work. I wouldn't mind seeing this at some point.

Would love the increasing risks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
