Near Death Trauma removal, alpha 17 experimental (for us bad players)

[Skavies]

This will basically remove the near death trauma penalty if you are like me and have problems staying alive long enough for this to go away whether it's from medical reasons or you simply suck too much.

1. Find this folder. D:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\7 Days To Die\Data\Config
2. Edit this file within that folder. buffs.xml
3. Do a search in that file for "buffNearDeathTrauma" Use control F to search.
4. Find the second instance of that search. it will be right below this. <!-- ****************** Illness Debuffs: Dysentery, Pneumonia, etc. ****************** -->
5. Look 3 lines below the second instance for this line. <duration value="3600"/>
6. Change it to <duration value="20"/>
7. Do not change it to <duration value="0"/> This will make it start at 0 and count up indefinitely. I know 20 works and will disappear before I fully spawn in after dying yet again. You can probably change it to <duration value="1"/> if you want, I use 20 and it works and goes away in 20 seconds instead of 1 hour.

I'm going to use Windows default paths here to give a better method to achieve this result that will last across updates:

PATH:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\7 Days To Die\Mods

Create Folder: ShortDeathTrauma

Create file: Modinfo.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<xml>
	<ModInfo>
		<Name value="ShortDeathTrauma" />
		<Description value="Shortens the Death Trauma to 20 seconds instead of 3600." />
		<Author value="Skavies converted by Red Eagle LXIX" />
		<Version value="1.0" />
		<Website value="https://steamcommunity.com/app/251570/discussions/0/3020122487791625499/" />
	</ModInfo>
</xml>

Create folder: Config

Create file: buffs.xml

<configs>
  <set xpath="/buffs/buff[@name='buffNearDeathTrauma']/duration/@value">20</set>
</configs>

Assumes I did everything correctly.

If there anything I’ve learned from programming: it’s always one thing that screws up the program in the scripts

Red Eagle, thanks for fixing this better.

the great thing about this is i dont agree with 20 seconds cause i like the death trauma i was an avid eater of glass to performe fast travel..... and i like that they finally hit me hard for doing that but one hour is a bit extreme so i set it to 20 minutes still dont want to die with that timer but death does mean some thing still

Much thanks for that Red Eagle, I just done it by myself and I just removed the effect completly, Now I just need to remove ♥♥♥♥♥ spawns of Dogs, that is ridiculous, out of nowhere 20+ dogs just spawned next to me and it was pain in ass to get loot back.
