Description

Adds automatic slow motion on zombie kills. Can be limited to the last nearby enemy for “finisher” moments.
Can optionally trigger on dismemberment. Lets you tune how strong, how long, and how often slow-mo happens.

Where to Edit the Settings:

Go to your 7DTD install:
Mods\KillCamSlowMo – Last Enemy Restricted\Config\KillCamSlowMoSettings.xml
Open it with Notepad / VS Code, change the value=”” entries, save, and restart the game.

Options (very concise)In <KillCamSlowMoSettings> you have:
Enabled – true/false
Turn the mod’s slow-mo logic on or off.
SlowScale – e.g. 0.35
How slow time gets (0.2 = very slow, 0.5 = half-speed, 1.0 = normal).
Duration – e.g. 1.25
How many real-time seconds slow-mo lasts after it triggers.
Cooldown – e.g. 2.5
Minimum seconds before another slow-mo can trigger.
IgnoreCorpseHits – true/false
If true, doesn’t trigger on already-dead bodies.
OnlyLastEnemy – true/false
If true, only triggers when this was the last hostile in range.
EnemyScanRadius – e.g. 15.0
Radius (meters) to search for other enemies when OnlyLastEnemy is true.
TriggerOnDismember – true/false
Allow dismember events to trigger slow-mo.
DismemberChance – 0.0–1.0
