realiZm - Mechanics Tweaks [6-hour day/night cycle]

Description
Welcome
Hey folks. Being a very, very junior modder for DayZ, I've tried my hand at tweaking the game rather than adding features. This is what's in the mod so far:

Health Regen
  • A player, with no ailments or deficiencies, will regenerate from 1 to 100 health in 24 in-game hours (6 real-time hours).

Hunger & Thirst
  • Starvation (Empty and flashing red apple) will kill the player in roughly 12 in-game days (72 real-time hours).
  • Dehydration (Empty and flashing red bottle) will kill the player in roughly 3 in-game days (18 real-time hours).

Vitamins
  • Vitamin tablets (Vitamin Bottle) reinforce the players' immune system for 12 in-game hours (3 real-time hours).

Glove & Shoe Damage
  • Gloves can withstand ~30 minutes of ladder-sliding before they are ruined (was ~30 seconds in vanilla).
  • Sliding down a ladder without gloves has a 15% chance to cause bleeding (was 30% in vanilla).
  • Shoes degrade 3x slower.

My pleasure, bud. The numbers are designed around real time, so 24 hours in-game would elapse over 6 real hours. :)

Thank you scehr, so it is based on game time not real time ? :)

You don't have to, no, but that is what the numbers were designed for. If you like this pace but for a different cycle then feel free to use it for that.

Does it require that my server has 6hour cycles?

Hey, Alda. The same goes for this as with GAD. I've been occupied with other things in life so I haven't really been able to get on with modding much. As stated in the mod description, I don't have much experience with DayZ modding at all, so I don't really know how or where to start with making a json for my mod. If you know how to do it then please add me and we'll go through it. If we can get that working then I'll add you as a contributor to the mod? :praisesun:
