Bugged death

[Modin]

Didn't investigate or try to reproduce but this is how it happened:

 

- Hypothermic for a while without it going back up, -6 degrees celsius

 

- Caught a cold (full strength)

 

- Drowsy

 

- Hungry (far from starvation)

 

- 1 hp (hypothermic leaves you there, whether intended or not)

 

- Outside with tent, campfire

 

- Campfire lit, fuel for ~4 hours

 

Stayed 2 minutes around the campfire, got back to 5-10% health and cold/chilly.

Went to sleep in the tent, instantly died.

 

Couldn't be starvation, I know I was far from it. Couldn't be hypothermia, it doesn't kill, and the campfire was lit. Wasn't burning, the campfire was away. No zombie scratch or bite or anything like that. Not dying of thirst. Didn't eat anything bad.

 

I think the time skip from sleeping somehow messes with the health calculations. Something to do with hypothermia and/or being low health. I also thought you're kicked out of sleep whenever your health is too low? Didn't happen for me - I was low when I went to sleep, health was slowly going back up, bam instant death.

There are meta events that occur during sleep. For example, neck pain removed around 5% from HP, thus, your character died.

It's still a bug, though. Chars should actually freeze to death, leaving 1 HP untouched isn't intentional. Also "Pain" should be separated from the HP system, maybe, some time in the future
