Rotting flesh is useless?

[Wickardo]

Is it usefull for something? I am just saying because I can find anything else to eat rather than waiting for rotting flesh be something that can save me from starving to death. An idea that i have to use rotting flesh is use it to craft Gore Blocks, but instead of just being a disgusting ordinary gore block, you can use it to attract the zombies.

They're pretty useless in the vanilla version of the game. Some mods have uses for them like turning them into cans of spam.

Other than that, they're a last resort if you're starving to death.

Easy enough to add in.

Add this to your recipes.xml

	<recipe name="HomeMadeGoreBlock" count="1" scrapable="False">
		<ingredient name="rottingFlesh" count="10" />
		<ingredient name="femur" count="2" />
	</recipe>

finally give this a block ID # that isn't being used currently and then add it to the bottom of your blocks.xml

	<block id="" name="HomeMadeGoreBlock">
		<property name="Class" value="Gore" />
		<property name="Material" value="organic" />
		<property name="Shape" value="ModelEntity" />
		<property name="Model" value="Entities/Gore/gore_block1_Prefab" />
		<property name="Texture" value="22" />
		<property name="Collide" value="movement,melee,bullet,arrow,rocket" />
		<property name="Place" value="TowardsPlacerInverted" />
		<property name="Tag" value="Gore" />
		<property name="IsTerrainDecoration" value="true" />
		<property name="FallDamage" value="false" />
		<property name="CanPickup" value="true" />
		<property name="HeatMapStrength" value="10" />
		<property name="HeatMapTime" value="2500" />
		<property name="HeatMapFrequency" value="1" />
		<property name="CustomIcon" value="GoreBlock1Prefab" />
		<property name="MaxDamage" value="200" />
	</block>

It has the zombie attracting strength of running 5 forges, you can change it by lowering the HeatMapStrength, default forges and campfires are at 2, and animal gore blocks are the highest default block at 5.

It's a junk item just for immersion, many games have them. Though why sould someone take the time to butcher only to take chunks of bad and useless meat is beyond me. I suppose you can eat them like the bad sandwichs if your about to die of starvation, that food has never been a big problem for me. At the start water is my biggest issue, but not for long.

You should be able to make zombie bait with em. Or zombie attraction grenade where you throw them at other players to draw zombies to em. Or maybe go the reverse and use it as camoflage.
