BECOME THE INFECTED!

Brain Disease Overhaul

This is a complete overhaul on the vanilla Brain Disease, Kuru. From minor laughing to schizophrenia to becoming fully Infected!

Features:

  • Custom Trigger and Area
  • Custom Particles
  • Area can be Static or Dynamic
  • 2 Drinks that give 500/2500 of the agent
  • 2 Antidotes. Basic Removes Agent. Super +fills blood
  • Kuru Gas Grenade
  • Blood Test Shows any sicknesses if present and their level
  • XML included
  • Setup write-up in workshop folder

Brief:

  • Lower Level:some visual symptoms
  • Medium level:Decay begins. Flies, visuals, audios, Infinite Stamina
  • Starting Medium Level Player food/water begins to drain more
  • Higher Level:Decayed. More intense visuals, audios, Ignored by infected, no fall dmg. Immune to other disease.
  • Starting Higher Level Player Blood and Health drain slowly, food/water drain faster
  • Once in Decayed state Human Meat Help replenish food/water/blood/health!

Concept: Once a player has contracted the brain disease agent, disease progresses naturally. From minor disturbing symptoms progressing into fully infected, requiring human meat to stay alive! There's no slowing or stopping disease progression. However, with a few perks and a few forbbiden steaks....How long can you survive!??

I test solo on local server so please report any issues to the discord so I can further develop or fix any issues with this.
