Adds a new -7 points perk named Mentally Unstable, which offers a completely different experience for new and old players alike. The perk is mutually exclusive with Adrenaline Junkie, Brave, and Deaf traits.
The mod requires game version 42.15+
This mod is a successor of Schizophrenia Trait for B42 mod.
Features
Player with the trait will occasionally suffer various manifestations of mental disorder:
- auditory hallucinations (gunshots, zombie sounds, car alarms etc.), that provoke panic attacks and stress buildup
- visual hallucinations in a form of unreal zombies; any contact with a visual hallucination result in nervous breakdown, with possible screaming, falling down, droping items, etc., and depression buildup.
- mood swings, that result in depression buildup with no actual reason
- jumpscares with no real zombies around
- audible talking to self, laughing, or crying
- experience imaginary damage in melee combat
- nightmares, that will wake the player up
- witnessing other players death result in severe emotional distress
Stress affects the chance of above effects, so balancing stress is the key.
Remedy
Frequency and severity of mental disorder attacks can be temporarily reduced by taking chlorpromazine, an antipsychotic medication.
- Chlorpromazine has a recommended dose of 1 pill per 24 hours and should not be combined with alcohol; failure to follow recommendations may result in drowsiness/insomnia, dry mouth, excess sweating, lowered endurance, and even losing overall health.
- Chlorpromazine has adverse effects - occasionally, thirst, nausea or sweating may occur; the chance of adverse effects is highest right after taking the pill and gradually lowers over time.
- Chlorpromazine is added to item distribution lists, and may be found in various medicine-related places and containers as a pack of 8 pills, or a box of 10 packs.
