This **Zombie Infection Mod** adds the functionality that Zombies are able to give you a deadly infection.<\/p>\n
**Please note:** with version 1.5.1 the Forge\/NeoForge versions of the mod use two config files for server and client (old common config files are ignored).<\/p>\n
When a Zombie hits you there is a chance that you get infected (default 80%). Armor will lower this chance by a value of up to 60 (with full Diamond\/Netherite). If the infection timer runs out you die instantly.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Starting with version 1.5.0 a small display with the current protection value against infections was added (e.g. a value of 20% means, out of 10 times a Zombie hits you 8 hits will most likely infect you). The protection value display can be enabled\/disabled and moved in the settings on the client config page.
\n<\/p>\n
Killing a Zombie has a 7.5% chance that Contagious Flesh gets droped. The Looting enchantment adds 2.5% per level.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Heating up the Contagious Flesh will give you **Heated Zombie Flesh**, which is not contagious anymore.
\n<\/p>\n
When you combine the Heated Zombie Flesh with Gold Ingots you get **Gold Streaked Zombie Flesh**. Eating the gold streaked flesh resets the infection timer, but it does not cure you. <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
In the last step you brew yourself **The Cure**, combining the Gold Streaked Flesh with an awkward potion.
\n<\/p>\n
You can extend the duration of the cure potion with Redstone and turn it into a Cure Potion II lasting 3x as long.
