Vanilla Reloaded (DVS 4.0)

This Mod greatly expands endgame and prevents you from being an overpowered supersoldier past level 100, it maked the game challenging all the way to level 300.

Guns have been reworked to mainly use recoil instead of aiming circle.

• General gunstats have been changed, for example rate of fire, reload rate, much better pipe weapons, sniper damage and much more
• Item modifiers have been reworked to not influence only damage but to influence recoil, accuracy and other stats
• Your exact accuracy (aimed and hip) is not displayed in the item stats
• Guns, Tools and Weapons use their respective parts to repair now instead of the general repair kit
• The parts you need to repair are being shown in the item’s description, it is highlighted in yellow
• Two new Item-Modifiers: Flammable Oil and Liquid Nitrogen, very helpful lategame

Weapons, Tools and Turret Changes

• Melee weapons and tool damage has been greatly increased (~+50%)
• Melee weapons and tools now have a bit of armor penetration depending on how heavy they are to immitate blunt force on armored Zombies
• Chainsaw deals massively more damage, but is ineffective against armored zombies
• Auger is much quicker and feels like an Auger now
• Bows and Corssbows deal significantly more damage, reload faster and are more accurate
• Explosive damage has been greatly increased
• Junk Turret damage, range and rate of fire has been increased greatly. Magazine Size is not random anymore and tiered (quality 1 has 50 rounds, quality 6, 100). To ballance things out, junk ammo now uses gunpowder.

Ammo has been reworked, to function more like their classes suggest

• Ball Ammo does low damage against armored zombies, but does 20% more damage than AP, also can penetrate 1 enemy and a block up to 750 hit points
• AP (Armor Piercing Ammo) does most damage against armored zombies, penetrates 3 enemies, penetrates a block up to 1500 hit points but puts a little more stress on your gun
• HP (Hollow Point Ammo) does 75% more damage than ball but does almost no damage at all against armored zombies, very effective against quickly regenerating zombies
• Shotgun Shells and Slugs have 2-3 times more range than before
• Shotgun Shells do significantly less damage against armored zombies

Zombies now have more Zombie-Classes, which get along with ammo changes perfectly

• Armored Zombies
  • Soldier and Biker now have 80% armor
  • Demolition now has 90% armor
    • Demolition deals massive explosion damage and puts you on fire
• Feral and Radiated Wight
  • Are now extremely dangerous they run very fast and deal massive damage
  • Feral heals 20hp/s and radiated 100hp/s
• Radiated Zombies
  • Unarmored Radiated Zombies heal 40hp/s
  • Armored Radiated Zombies heal 10hp/s
• Radiated Demolitioner
  • ‘*$&”-/&%$§
  • As you Level up the zombies will also get stronger (+3.33% damage-/, health-/ and blockdamage-bonus every 10 levels)

Attributes, Skills, Perk Books and Magazines have been heavily reworked. Everything has been reworked to feel a little bit less arcade and not to be extremely reliant on perks, also to be more challenging

• New Perks
  • Night Stalker (lootquantity/speed bonus at night)
  • Every Gun-Perk now has it’s own Weapon Handling Perk (reduces recoil, increases accuracy, …)
  • Adrenaline Rush (use less stamina, reload faster and run quicker when you are low health)
  • Athlete Perk (Run Faster)
  • Plague Doctor (big dismemberment bonus)
• Removed Perks
  • Treasure Hunter
  • Parkour
  • Penetrator
  • Huntsman
  • Charismatic Nature
• These perks didn’t fit very well with the mod, you are not supposed to be jumping 3 blocks high like Parkour does, or find lategame look very early on how Charismatic Nature can cause, Penetrator doesn’t fit well with the ammo changes and Huntsman doesn’t fit with the way harvesting has been changed (1 raw meat for 1 cooked meat for example)
• Reballanced Perks
  • Lucky Looter
    • Lootquantity bonus, instead of lootstage
  • Packmule
  • Engineer, Physician and Master Chef
    • Greatly increased crafting speeds (general craft: Engineer, chem station craft: Physician, food/water craft: Master Chef)
  • Physician healing bonus removed
  • Pain Tolerance weakened greatly
  • All Melee and Ranged perks weakened (mostly instead of +50% damage at max lvl now +10%)
• Previously perks made you be the unkillable supersoldier, after you went past level 100, perks were way too overpowered, now perks do give you nice little boosts to get along on your way to level 300
• Attribute and Perk Books
  • Reballanced all perk books that conflict with new recoil mechanic, or other new mechanic and which increased you damage too much, generally perk damage for example has been decreased from +50% to +10% at max level, Perk Books now follow the same principle, instead of +10% damage, now do +2%
  • Attributes generally give less headshot-bonus and dismember-change at max level (+150%, 10%)
• Magazines
  • Magazine requirements for everything harvesting, bulding and crafting related has been halved

Player

• Maximum hp is not capped at 200, but now 400 at level 300, but trust me, you will need it
• You generally gain more xp from killing zombies and looting and a bit less from upgrading
• Your jumping height has been reduced from 1.5 to 1 meter
• Possibility of breaking your leg has been greatly increased, so no more jumping of off buildings from 15 meter without consequences; safe fall height: 6-8 meters
• Increased backpack size to 54 (+9) to get along with ammo and repair part changes

Looting/Harvesting/Recipe
