[B42:SP/MP] Take A Bath And Shower


This mod was developed with this theme in mind.
Bathing and showering in Project Zomboid should feel meaningful.
This mod adds fully playable bath and shower mechanics, and gives them a real place in day-to-day survival.
Bathing is not just flavor. It can become part of how you stay comfortable, clean, and in good condition over time.
Is washing yourself in a sink, or even a toilet, really enough to feel clean?
You might survive without proper bathing, but it should not feel ideal.


- Adds an invisible body dirt parameter called Grime.
- The Grime system can be disabled in the sandbox options.
- Bathtubs function as fluid containers.
- Includes a dedicated bathtub UI.
- Adds "Take Shower" options to white showers and wall-mounted showers.
- Adds a "Take Bath" option to white bathtubs.
- Bathing Benefits: bathing can help relieve various negative stats.
- Body Shampoo: an alternative to soap. (Currently shower-only.)
- Bath Salt: can be added to tub water. There are currently 6 types, each with different bathing benefits.


- Automatic Clothing Change: includes a wide range of options.
- Improved Plumbing: bathtubs and showers can calculate available water from the total amount stored in all water collectors in the 3×3 area above them.
- Advanced Prep Location Detection: the character can better detect where to prepare for bathing. Toilets, cabinets, and other awkward tiles are given lower priority even if they are technically usable or closer.

- Bathtubs have four sprite variations: with shower (vanilla), cleaned with shower, without shower, and cleaned without shower.
- You can always climb over the edge of a bathtub.
- This can sometimes result in zombies ending up in the bathtub.
- Bathtubs and showers can be separated through the context menu. (Requires a pipe wrench.)
- Shower parts can be removed from bathtubs and deluxe showers.
- Removed shower parts can be packed, unpacked, and placed as wall-mounted showers.
- Deluxe showers can be crafted using shower parts and wall-mounted showers as materials.
- Separated bathtubs can have shower parts or wall-mounted showers attached again.
- Adds recipes for packing and unpacking shower parts and wall-mounted showers.
- Clean Tub variants are available for both attached-shower and separated-shower types.
- The improved Deluxe Shower can rotate in all four directions. The vanilla version only supports S and E.


I intentionally did not make these required, but I strongly recommend them because they support important parts of this mod.
Included Patches
- Ra’s Body Mod – dedicated compatibility patch included.
- Lifestyle: Hobbies – [Important] Load after this mod. bath and shower interactions are replaced by this mod’s versions, and bathing can also reduce `hygieneNeed`.
- WaterPipes – bathtubs and showers can be connected to WaterPipes pipes.
General Compatibility
- Automatic clothing change is designed to work with most body mods.
- Tomb’s Player Body Overhaul – one of my personal favorites, and the one used in the screenshots.
- Wash or Rot – its grime system is similar but not identical, so the two mods can coexist and may work well together.
- Anthro Survivors – Although a patch is included, there is no guarantee that it will work correctly with the latest version.
- More Damaged Objects – [Important] Load after this mod.


- Uninstalling this mod while saving is not recommended, as it will leave a large amount of junk in the game.
- Some features may still behave oddly in split-screen mode.
- The bathtub and shower faucet menus are currently limited because the vanilla fluid menu is broken.
- If you speed up the game during the movement or clothing-change steps before or after showering, the action may stop midway.
- This happens because WalkAction and PathFindBehavior can be canceled at high game speeds.
