Starving Zombies [B42]

Description
[ko-fi.com]

---> B42 only! <---

What does this mod do?
  • Attracts zombies to dead bodies (animals included), and makes them eat them.
  • Attracts zombies to the player.

How does this mod work?
  • It simulates smell emitted by dead bodies.
  • It simulates smell emitted by the player, blood that is on the player, and on items in the player's inventory.
  • It utilises the wind speed to extend the distance smell travels.
  • It utilises the wind direction to determine if zombies can smell the dead bodies/player.
  • Smell also radiates in a circle around dead bodies / the player (unaffected by wind).
  • It does not use sound events, so only zombies in the loaded world (active cell) are affected.
  • It does not spawn zombies.

Is it configurable?
Yes.

Potential features to come
  • Temperature having an effect on the smell emitted by dead bodies.
  • Rain dampening the smell of dead bodies.
  • Cologne/Perfume/Soap masking the player's smell.

Do zombies fill up some hunger meter/cooldown for a while or do they go from corpse to corpse?

This is a baller idea! How heavy is it on performance?

Can you make a version that the blood hides the player from the zombies if no actions other than walking is detected?

Is there a b41 version thats compatible with mp?

Idea for if they ever get bandits and zombies separated a reverse of this mod that causes bandits to avoid zombies by smell and less likely to recognize there is a player if he stinks like zombie

There's any way to adjust the settings so it take a while before the zombies move to eat a corpse? Or maybe make then eat corpses less often?

possible to stop bodies from becoming skeletons?

clothing on skeletons should get absolutely shredded with holes in every location.

Awesome thing. For those who are bored with only shamblers, hightly recommend putting sprinters at 95% and mixing it with this mode, for those jittery insane people like me who love adrenaline

Damn, a reason for cologne to exist? That'd be swell.

@Ryuku Any chance zombies can grow stronger for every corpse they have eaten ? Or at least heal?
