A stomp nerf mod

build 42 pls

@nigel quite right--as prior infantry myself, I would find some basic water to wash my socks several pair at a time, and they would go back in the butt pack when dry. Definitely extra socks will be one of the items in your stashes, along with extra water and a snack. Clean skivvies are an absolute must. Day 5 doing active field stuff with fromunda really starts to suck. Civs beware.

is this compatible with shoe mods like more shoes?

It's based on how important foot care is in the military. It's a lot more important than people think and if you're feet are not taken care of, you would be dead weight in a zombie apocolypse.

Just look up "infantry foot care", military takes it very seriously, because infantry needs to walk a lot.

You live your life normally right now, but start going on hikes every weekend and you will get blisters. Now imainge that in a zombie apocalypse where you can't take breaks to go back to real life, can't properly wash, recover:
You get a few blisters, you don't have more clean socks, don't clean your feet, the blisters will get infected, your feet will be sweaty or wet, the skin will peel off of your feet, every step will be more painful than the last until you perish.

@nigel I feel like there's some less than wholesome intent but if you do I'm sure it would make a certain Nurse very happy

There is already damage to boots in vanilla whenever you stomp zombies. I'm at 2000 kills atm with "bare hands" being my favourite weapon and I had to change my shoes twice already with 3rd pair replaced at some 3/4 durability. I haven't walked over almost any glass either. The ones that deal highest damage and offer best protection also last much longer than regular shoes and those last longer than sneakers as well I believe. You will destroy your sneakers in first few days of stomping in vanilla.

About the socks, I want to make a mod that adds stinky feet and foot hygine, but in the current version player movement speed modifiers do not work and the player movement speed cannot be changed, therefor I will make it later, once that feature returns to the game.

Finally, something to encourage using weapons! Usually weapons at low skill are legit worth less than unarmed most of the time. Especially with weaker characters, where hitting a zombie with your shoe does worlds more damage than a hammer. Also, shoes normally can get damage but just like socks it's only for if you get attacked to the foot (one hit will break your shoes instantly, as they only cover two spots so just like gloves if one gets a hole it's too much damage).

thanks for the mod.
By the way, I noticed that socks are almost eternal in the game. Except when they bite on a bare leg.
It would be cool to add damage to the socks as well.
There will be a reason to change them at least sometimes
