Workshop's Description (Relocated Sections)
Does This Mod Affect Ledge Grabbing Incapacitations?
The regular scaling health loss mechanic of ledge grabs has been left untouched, and should function no differently with the mod installed. However, teammates trying to desperately help their fellow hanging survivors should exercise extreme caution, as any damage can send you staggering mid-animation off the ledge yourself.

Will This Work Online?
As always, Vscript mods are restricted to single-player/local servers. Dedicated servers can of course run this mod, if correctly installed.

My Configuration File Keeps Resetting Help!
As a safety measure, the file will reset itself if it detects a reading error in-game. Make sure to only use true or false answers and don't forget the space! You can double check the console by looking for the blue text that says 'Revised Revival', it'll let you know what kind of error it found. If in doubt simply delete the config.txt, boot up any map, and try again with a fresh file.

Windows 11 Struggling to Read Config File
User Shadowysn has been helpful enough to warn me of a potential issue that may concern any Windows 11 users.

Windows 11 Notepad f*cks up with ems files due to a NUL symbol at the end and instead tries to read and save it all as untranslatable chinese which does not work. Some people are unaware of this and may ask why it's in chinese.
If you find yourself experiencing this very problem, try opening the configuration file with any other text editor programme. I personally recommend Notepad++[notepad-plus-plus.org] as it's free and made for Windows operating systems.

Potentially Conflicting Mods
The mod is only able to assign each survivor their correct health by keeping track of player models. If you're playing with a mod that allows more than one of the same survivor to be running around, you may experience problems. In theory mods that allow you to play as all eight separate survivors simultaneously in one map should correctly work; keyword being "should". For example All 8 Survivors Sourcemod[steamcommunity.com] (by Edison Gar and Raizen) is fully supported by this mod.

This mod enforces the 'survivor_incap_health' convar to its default 300 value, you could side step this but expect heavily tampered results.

Changing the 'survivor_max_incapacitated_count' convar is completely fine, and will not break any of the mod's functionality.
