Cannibalism???

[Humr]

I never ate any human mean but still my character started laughing for no reason

Can i start laughing when ill cut ppl apart to get loot if they are stuck inside a wall ?

[llllllllllllll]

It makes sense actually, human mind will slowly fade away after dismembering another human being, it is scientifically proven. FYI even if you found human meat on a road and eat it, you will start laughing too. In real world example, cannibal tribes that ate human brain were driven mad because of toxins contained in it, they lost not only their mind but limb functioning.

Medical attention has a setting where your character laughs when you drink alcohol. Does your server have the mod and did you drink any alcohol?
If not did you pick up fat after cutting up another player or got fat from another player and ate it?
If it's latter welcome to the club. Human fat now has the chance of giving you the laughing sickness 🤣

@DoubleGay it's not from toxins but from abnormal proteins. They didn't go mad either they just got a terminal illness caused by neurodegeneration which was accompanied by tremors and sudden outbursts of laughter.
Please at least get your facts right.

If you googled better you would know that these abnormal proteins are toxic :)
You say they didn't go mad, but they were having sudden outbursts of laughter, perfect logic. Read studies at least and not random googled facts, they didn't laugh at all you idiot.

Yeah human fat can now give you kuru. Dont eat any fat you didnt harvest yourself or get from a trusted source as fat doesnt have an origin tag like meat steaks do.

This trap killed one of my characters too. I was still kinda new, and didn't know that players drop fat.

Since the item description said it's meant for "cooking", OF COURSE I presumed it's safe to eat. When my character started laughing, I thought another player was messing with me and panicked.

The game is filled with noob traps. The knowledge that bottled water makes you sick is not communicated to the player in any way, and it makes zero sense. A sealed plastic bottle can't have bacterial contamination, unless it was recently dunked in a toilet.

well anybody could have opened that bottle and do whatever with it, "seal" it again and drop it.

I like this mechanic as it gives purpose to alcohol tincture and disinfectant.

there's no function currently for disinfection on vanilla. but chlorine tabs purify the water.

You would be able to tell if it was opened by if the seal is broken when you twist the cap. Though there is no ingame feedback in that manner.

I don't think you know what "sealed" means. The plastic rim around the cap that breaks when you first open the bottle is the sealing mechanism. If the rim is already broken, you know someone opened the bottle.

fine. that's why i used quotation marks. u can't tell in the game if the bottle is sealed or just closed. there's also no cracking sound when u open that bottle, which might be an indicator that the bottle isn't sealed. maybe the word "pristine" in this game might be just the problem and confuse people. tons of things in the game count as pristine, even used.

When you use a knife and it has blood on it you can use the disinfectant on it and the tiniture is for your first aid rags when you make them from a worn cloth meaning dirty rag.
I learned that on vanilla servers

I have been sick from not washing hands after cleaning a chicken then I ate fruit with them dirty hand. But I have killed chickens and cleaned them with gloves on and didn`t clean gloves and didn`t get sick from eating with those gloves. Oh the learning curve is steep and long

Look at it this way. You have gloves that keep your hands clean. Devs could have added the option that you have to remove your dirty gloves for it to count as clean hands while you eat. Same as the setting in medical attention where you can't eat when you wear a mask. Many would complain about it. Devs try to keep it simple for the simpletons which is why sickness is so basic.
