Getting Started with Build 42 | My First Run part 6 | One Month Survived

A crazy one! Well played.

So I caught the end while I was at lunch. After thinking about it a bit it kinda reminds me of threads I've seen on reddit with an instant death. Iirc they all seemed to have gone into dev mode and cleared a bite at some point in the run. I think maybe there's a bug with that, like it's already killed you, but it's waiting for you to take any sort of damage to trigger it. At any rate, I learned a lot from watching this run while I play my own. So thanks!

You actually may be right. I have never used debug before. I'm guessing that is probably what happened

[@crazylegs8387]

This is exactly it. People on reddit will have a similar post about instantly dying, and the first question every time is "did you debug away a bite?" And every time that's the case. The game, I guess, treats you as "zombified" after the first bite, so the second you re-enter that state, it's immediate zomboid.

the splat death. only way ive died, my character has never turned, ive never “lost my health” and died. its always splat. - do a darn run on easymode just to mess with stuff and show us the results. maybe not spawning stuff in but high loot better cars and cause chaos. more “lets check shit out”

So dawn goes down to day. Nothing gold can stay.

Frost?

Bro, you Mark in options instant kill on bite, i see you sandbox setting

[@Drunkonlife]

Not on this one. Look at the last part of the stream before this. There was a bite from a bug and everyone agreed it was a bum way to go so we went to debug mode to lose the bite. If this had been instadeath, I would have died instantly.

I mean to be fair, you did pick up thin skinned didn’t you?

[@Drunkonlife]

I did...it sucked going out that way BUT I really think (put on your tin foil hat), that the longer you live, the more likely your first scratch/laceration will kill you anyway. It seems like I can go for a month or two without any scratches and then the first one will kill me but if I get scratched or lacerated within the first week, I'm usually okay.
