Kayli’s Evolution Mod [EXPERIMENTAL]
Evolution Mod
Allows zombies to evolve various attributes over time.
Make zombies change their speed, strength, toughness, cognition, ability to crawl under cars, memory, sight, hearing, and virus transmission as a function of time, using individually adjustable settings in the sandbox options.
Customization
A full explanation of the settings can be found on GitHub.[github.com]
General Settings
- Turn evolution on or off.
- Set how many days you have before evolutions begins. A negative value means evolution has already begun.
- Set how evolved zombies are from the start. A negative value means zombies start "devolved".
Evolution Function
- Set the way in which evolution progresses to be either linear, asymptotic or cyclic.
- For a linear function, you can specify how long it takes to reach 100% evolution.
- For an asymptotic function, you can specify the base value, the limit, and how long it takes to reach 50% evolution.
- For a cyclic function, you can specify how often it repeats, and between which numbers evolution fluctuates.
Evolution Limits
- Set how strong or weak zombies can get compared to the zombie lore settings.
- Transmission is hard capped at "Blood + Saliva" and cannot become "Everyone’s Infected".
Evolution Factor
- Set how quickly zombies evolve certain attributes compared to others.
- Set the factor to a negative number to make zombies weaker.
- Set the factor to 0 to stop zombies from evolving this attribute.
Deviation Factor
- Set how evolution of certain attributes is distributed across the zombie population.
- Half of zombies will be affected less than the given percentage, and half will be affected more.
- As the percentage approaches 0% or 100%, zombies become more similar.
- As the percentage approaches 50%, zombies become more diverse.
Zombie Lore
- Any attributes set to "Random" are unaffected by evolution.
- Transmission is unaffected by evolution if set to "Everyone’s Infected".
