Soul Stealers

Description
"When a survivor dies, they leave behind a small trace of their soul in the place they died.
Other survivors have learned how to consume this soul to absorb the dead person's memories."

This mod creates a "soul" item on the ground at the location of a player's death. It can be manipulated like any standard item, and can be right-clicked and "Absorb"ed to gain the level (if higher) and perks (if higher) of the character from which it came. To reduce accidents, you can only absorb one soul at a time, so may need to expand the stack to right-click a specific one.

Initially created to add a "softcore" mode, it could also be effective in PvP servers.

The last time I touched Zomboid was 2018, so it's unlikely to get any future updates from me.
Anyone is welcome to use the code for anything they like, however. If anyone does publish an update, let me know and I'll link to it.

We installed it on our server (multiplayer build 41) and worked very well!
Just put it in you inventory click on white arrow, en right click to absorb it!

Does this mod work on dedicated multiplayer servers?

Maybe, if someone has a suggestion on whether it'd be less-cheaty to try to restore the player XP to what it was, or not touch the player level at all. That's the one flaw in it I know about.

Otherwise, if anyone else wants to develop it into something different, feel free.

I haven't touched this (or PZ in general) in forever, so it's quite possible it won't work with current versions.
