Wound Buff System
Anything that can attack you has a chance to hurt you. Get hurt too much and you will be wounded. To heal the wound you will have to treat it and maintain it until it heals. This wound system has 5 stages..

1. The first is Bruised and needs no tending to or maintaining it will heal on its own as long as you are not hurt more.
2. The Second is a Small Wound. When you receive enough damage to get a Small Wound you will also get a Pain Buff that can be cured with a Pain Killer. To Heal the Small Wound you need to use a Bandage on it. After some time the bandage will get dirty and need reapplied. Do all of this successfully and your small wound will heal into Bruised. Fail to keep the wound clean or receive to much more damage from attackers and it will progress to a Wound.
3. The Third is a Wound. When you receive enough damage to get a Wound you will also get a Sprained Leg Buff that can be cured with a Splint. To Heal the Wound you need to use a First Aid Bandage on it. After some time the First Aid Bandage will get dirty and need reapplied. Do all of this successfully and your Wound will heal into Small Wound. Fail to keep the wound clean or receive to much more damage from attackers and it will progress to a Sever Wound.
4. The Forth is a Severe Wound. When you receive enough damage to get a Sever Wound you will also get a Gash Buff that can be cured with a Suter Kit.

5. The Last stage is an Infected Wound. When you receive enough damage to get an Infected Wound you will also get an Infection (not the Z Virus). To Heal an Infection you need to take Antibiotics. To Heal the Infected Wound you need to use a Sanitized Bandage on it. After some time the Sanitized Bandage will get dirty and need reapplied. Do all of this successfully and your Infected Wound will heal into a Sever Wound. Fail to keep the wound clean and you will die.

Zombie Bites

Once you receive a Bite you will also get a Bleed that can be healed as normal. To remove the Bite you must cook a Metal/Steel Pipe in the Campfire and Cauterize the Bite with it. You have 24 game hours to do this before you catch the Z Virus. After you Cauterize the Bite you will have a Bite Wound that you will need to treat with a Bandage. After some time the bandage will get dirty and need reapplying. Do all this successfully and you will receive a Wound, fail to do any of these steps and you will be infected with the Z Virus.

True Survival Followers, Bandits & Traveling Traders

-Added over 30 new NPC’s Bandits created by Stompy and Followers created by Drkstardragon.

-New Followers come in 2 types.

-Melee Follower- Will wander around and fend for themselves. You can recruit them by hitting them and they will follow you for a short time.

-Ranged Followers- Will follow any non-enemy target. You can still make them notice you by hitting them and they will follow until something else catches their eye

-Bandits also come in 2 types Melee and Ranged Bandits. They will kill anything that is not a bandit.

-Bandits and Followers each have entity specific loot tables so killing a Bandit might just get you a part of their weapon or gear.

Terms of Use*

Spoiler: 

Feel free to use anything in my mod you would like. Code, assets, icons, modded systems or whatever. All I ask is that noone hijacks my mod name "True Survival" I would like to still use that when I eventually complete the Mod

Please post all bugs here and I will see what I can do. Thanks for playing.

This mod ruined the game for me. Now any other mod that I use is just too easy lol.

I have played this mod extensively. It is incredibly fun. Be prepared to die, A LOT. I can't even really play the base game anymore because I get so bored. If you want to experience a true survival game, this is the mod to play.

I've spent countless hours helping Spider tweak this mod, brought lots of ideas to it so I guess that makes me an biased person. But DAMN do I love what it became. There truly is no other mod that would please me at this point. there's just no going back to vanilla either.

For all the hardcore fans out there, this is the mod you want. You won't regret it. Actually, you might, but for all the good reasons

Been playing this Mod since Alpha 12 when Spider found me in the steam forums complaining that the game was too easy. After playing this mod I simply cannot go back to vanilla.

it is very challenging, not for the faint of heart. If you dont want a challenge and I mean a challenge then dont waste your time. You will die. It will happen. You will get better and realize you are twice the player you used to be after going through this. It made the game feel fresh and fun. I was at a point where the game was stale and end game was just to easy, the game offered no challenge, this mod made me get back into it and invest 100's of more hours. A lot of things Spider has implemented on his server were implemented by TFP at a later date (im not saying he came up with the idea or that they stole from him but he seems to have a lot of their future plans done already). Workstations, classes, etc.

Give it a shot. Best mod for 7dtd that I have found yet.

While always being on the hunt for nice mods or at least tidbits to add to my server I found this mod...and it is NICE!

Tried it in SP, to get a bit familiar to it, and later tried out on the server you mentioned. Me poor thing of course spawned in the middle of some zeds and died, but found back to a nice start very fast. Maybe I would like to play this on your server, but there is one thing that stops me - it is PvP.

Some people may like it, some people may say yeah...it's the Zombie Apocalypse, you WILL fight about every ressource without mercy. And tbh, in a real Apocalypse me - of course - would kill my best neighbour, and probably cook and eat him, to save MY (and my dogs) life. But when it comes to gaming, I prefer a slightly more friendly environment, a counterpart to the real life, which is hard enough


But your mod is one of the best I've seen so far beside the Valmod, and I will take the freedom to grab some parts for my server - if I'm allowed to do so

So far this alpha I've been stuck cobbling together elements from some of my favorite old abandoned mods and updating them to work with A13.

This mod is new to me, as I don't visit the steam forums and I've missed it if you ever posted here before. It seems you have saved me a lot of effort going forward. It is uncanny how well your mod seems to fit my preferences. I'm very excited to test it out later tonight.

I love the concept of prefab/biome specific content so the bullet press was great to see. Without playing it, I'm almost certain you can add me to the list of people that you have ruined the vanilla game for.

Thank you for your hard work.

Not sure if I am overlooking something or downloading a previous version, but I was exploring the files from the full mod d/l link and it doesn't seem to include the custom variants of 'police_station1' from the mixer.
