They Knew [B41]

Description
The Update for B42 can be found RIGHT HERE

They Knew
The Knox county incident was never a "random accident" or whatever the news was saying. Someone knew about this. They were there on the ground to observe the effects. What they didn't know, was how bad it was going to be.

Search the map for a new rare zombie! This zombie has a medicine for the zombie infection on them. I wanted a zombie virus cure that combined danger with reward. There are several zombie cures out there, this one is my version. The spawn rate is configurable in the Sandbox Variables.

TRANSLATIONS

THIS MOD ADDS
  • A new Hazmat Suit
  • A new satchel
  • Zomboxivir: The inhalant that can purge you of the zombie virus. Further infections are unaffected.
  • Zomboxycycline: These pills are used in a manner similar to Malaria prevention medication. These pills prevent infection for 24 hours. Don't forget to take your medicine! (This is disabled by default, you need to up the drop chance in the sandbox options if you want it to spawn)

SANDBOX OPTIONS
The default for this zombie is 500. This means the mob is VERY RARE. The rest of the zombies in the default category have values between 20000 and 2000. The golfer zombie for instance (quite rare), has a score of 2000. Park rangers have a score of 10000.

FAQ:
  • Can this mod be installed on an existing game/server?
  • Yep! Should just work. You will need to go to new areas to start seeing the zeds, or wait for respawns.
  • Is this multiplayer ready?
  • Yep!
  • There are too many of this zombie!
  • On single player: Install THIS mod. Change the spawn rate.
  • On multi player: See below.
  • How do I configure the sandbox settings for a dedicated server?
    Load your dedicated server settings in the "host" option (click HOST instead of JOIN, or SOLO). Then, configure the sandbox settings there. Once you are done (lowest setting would be 1 instead of 50) save the settings, and exit host. Restart your server, and it should use the new sandbox settings. (TIP: This can be done even after the server has been going for a while, just close the server, load the file, edit and save. Next time you restart server, the settings will have changed).
  • When should I use my dose?
  • The best way to know when to use it, is when your character starts showing signs of infection! (Nausea, Nervousness)
  • Do I need 1 dose for each bite?
  • No. One dose will cure all infection on you. Even if you get bit 20 times.
  • Why is the bite still there after I use the cure.
  • Bite injuries will have to heal normally. The infection is the only thing removed.

Add-Ons

ROADMAP: FUTURE PLANS
  • More Mysterious Agents.
  • "Not a Cure" option, where the Zomboxivir only delays the inevitable.
  • Random "They Knew" events.

@Afterworlds Take your time, man. I could really use this mod right now. I'd be happy to do it when you have time.

I will add it to my list of things to do. No promise on how fast though. I got a lot on my plate.

This mode is very good. I thank you for it. But we need another version for the event. I changed the sandbox value to 0 so that the medicines are not visible on the zombie. Now only I can get the medicines and do the event. Can you make a mod for admins with only medicines? I don't want the zombie to be visible.

@idealTurk
I'm pretty sure it works like that :D

Finally, you did what the devs couldn't do in 10 years of development

When we set the default value to 0, the zombie never appears. Is this correct?

noticed an issue with this mod on 6 months later, i've killed like 4,500+ zombies and saw one for a moment before it seemed to disappear, not sure what's up but that was the closest to one i saw at all, we're already a month in an haven't seen one at all.
