This is from a last of us modpack which is why everything is so overgrown and why he has a gas mask

#

what’s the blue stuff?

#

also — do you have a fix for how tedious it is to level nimble? or are u just that good lmfao

clever lance
#

basically, if you level a skill without reading the books, you can read the books later to get all that lost xp back

#

makes the game so much better imo

#

hope it helps :)

clever lance
#

otherwise, amazing mod

#

so glad you took it over from the other guy

prime zealot
#

Also it will be a fixed feature in the future with my rewrite

#

Will be improved

clever lance
#

I can only up the other’s to 100 max

#

If i maxxed everything else that’d be a 1/300 chance for bloater’s to spawn. But that would also mean around a third of the zombies are clickers which i don’t wanna do

prime zealot
#

Indeed

#

Well, in the future update, these will be updated to 1k max

#

Tho I guess I could up it more but I doubt there's a point to it

#

But I could leave it as an option but since the idea is that every weight gets added and every spawn chance is weight/sum of all you can easily go to 4k max for TLOU Infected for example

clever lance
#

Mhm

prime zealot
#

And once you start adding other addons that add more zombies you end up to a lot, especially for an addon that adds a lot of zombie types

#

But yeah I could leave the option available to go even further than 1k

clever lance
#

I personally think 1k is perfect but other people might want the bloaters to even rarer

prime zealot
#

The thing is that with TLOU Infected specifically there's no point to it bcs you already lower the zombie population by a fuck ton

#

Like to 0.1 easily to make it playable

#

And considering my Clickers and Bloaters might get even more hardcore in the rewrite, you'll probably lower that even more

#

But yeah I'm excited to finish it but taking a small break rn, animations hit me hard :)

clever lance
#

How are the clickers gonna get changed? I know that bloater’s are gonna get spore bombs (hopefully) but what about clickers?

#

Also would the spore bombs just do damage like in the game or would they actually infect you?

prime zealot
clever lance
#

I looked it up and a fan theory was that the spores from the bombs basically acted like a mycotoxin. Basically a mat for the actual infectious spores to get into

prime zealot
# clever lance How are the clickers gonna get changed? I know that bloater’s are gonna get spor...

Bloaters will probably not get spore bombs at the release of the rewrite, I'll most likely explore it later down the line
Clickers are going to be a bit much faster and will not be able to fall on the floor when climbing fences unless they tried to catch you by lunging at you from the fences. That way you can't abuse them easily on the ground if you want to do that you'll have to take risks getting close to the fence (they won't climb the fence very fast tho, it'll be slow so you can still use fences to slow them)

clever lance
#

So they’ll be like in the game where they flail quickly at you when they hear you?

prime zealot
clever lance
#

I like that

prime zealot
#

Give me a sec to find a clip showing it off

#

Also blind clickers are definitely possible I'm 100% sure of it, I'll explore that later tho

clever lance
#

Mhm, i heard that all that could be done as of now is making their eyesight really bad

prime zealot
prime zealot
#

Yes he did explore actually reducing their eyesight to an extremely low point where they basically don't see shit

#

But he didn't actually try to just rewrite their detection mechanism

#

I was able to make clickers eat other infected

#

So that's a first

clever lance
#

#

I play with grabby clickers off cause i wasn’t able to figure out how to escape

clever lance
prime zealot
clever lance
#

I have an idea

#

What if when you had a short blade weapon in your hotbar, when a clicker grabs you, you can press the push button to automatically take it out and stab the clicker

prime zealot
#

Pretty sure it's already a thing

clever lance
#

Really?

prime zealot
#

I haven't tested it a lot tho

#

I still find grabby clickers to be very unfair bcs in the base game you can sort of dodge

clever lance
#

Mhm

#

I play with the ability to push and stomp them because i feel like it’d be pretty easy to push a blind dude, even if he is flailing

#

Actually, even more if he’s flailing

prime zealot
#

No Clickers in the lore are actually extremely strong

clever lance
#

Ah yeah forgot about that

prime zealot
#

Like easily 2 times or more stronger than a full shape human

#

(Something not well depicted in the serie too)

clever lance
#

I might start playing without the ability to push clickers, but unsure as of mow

#

I already have a healthy fear of them

prime zealot
#

haha and you should !

#

Thus why I'm improving them even further :>

clever lance
#

Once you add all this stuff you’ve been talkin about I think i’ll turn that option on

#

Makes guns even more of a necessity

prime zealot
#

It'll still take some time to come tho

clever lance
#

I know, i’m just excited for when it does

#

I added your overhaul of the mod to my list of “mods I will not play B42 without”

#

The main 2 though are “more skill books” and “exp recovery for skill books”

#

So useful

prime zealot
#

haha thx man

clever lance
#

Also, gotta say LOVE the new bloater model

#

Fuckin terrifying anytime i see that hulk come across my screen

prime zealot
#

Yeah the old one looked not great lol

clever lance
#

Looked like a bearded guy with jaundice

prime zealot
#

yea lol

#
