Love the mod! Thank you!

@Eren I think that may be a default thing with the HP bar mod. If you don't damage a zombie for a while, even without fire damage (melee/shooting/car damage), the HP bar will appear full next time you hurt them. However, you'll notice the HP bar emptying much faster next time you hurt them because their HP is not actually full.

Not sure if it's caused by this mod but zombies are healing to full health mid burning.

Finally tested my mods in both b41 and b42. Sorry if they were causing issues before!

Now it is working Great! Thank you

Fixed! The quickest way to make sure you have the newest version is to unsub while the game is NOT running, re-subscribe, then run the game.

Sorry! Will fix now

the b41 version of this mod is now missing for me

I downloaded mod today but no file downloaded B41

It cannot work properly on B41.

Thanks for the B42, Ez4EDP!
I finally got around to updating my mods and have updated this one with slightly different balancing to learn how to update mods and to provide an alternative balance which I think feels better in my experience having played with fire a lot.

B42: https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3398838250&searchtext=fire+rebalance

b42 for the people please

Can you make this B42?

Bless you Saint Tiddy, bless you!

I totally did not walk into my own campfire, kill my greatest character, tuck my tail between my legs, and come to the workshop looking for this mod. I swear - I found it organically, by searching for unrelated topics.

This mod removes the ability to start fires using a sturdy stick and notched wooden plank D:

it really works! and quite useful.

ive always felt like zombies were too fire proof, to one of, if not the best early game method to clearing out large packs of zombies. Thank you

Essential, doing what the devs wont, god.

Thanks bathroom guy

@DiabloStorm
You should check out my other mod:
Fire Ignites Player Slower (Yes, this is compatible with "Fire Damage Rebalance"):
https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2908902180

Although it doesn't take into account wetness

"I made this mostly to learn modding and to make the fire-heavy CDDA challenge less aggravating."

No mod seems to really implement fire rebalancing correctly, in my opinion. In CDDA your character is literally SOAKING WET and yet you catch fire by default like dried kindling. Why is there not a common sense mod that prevents this based on how wet your character is? A person soaking from a shower isn't going to immediately be engulfed in flames, Indie Stone's logic is absurd.

No idea sorry. If they use the same method of changing the fire damage, then I bet it depends on which mod gets loaded last.

If I use the 'Fire-Resistance' mod and set the resistance multiplier to 0.00, will this mod still do the extra damage?

@Youtube_TraumaSCL No worries
@Ricksdetrix
That's pretty specific, but you can figure out how to add random burn wounds by looking at another one of my mods called "Fire Ignites Player Slower": Fire Ignites Player Slower (Yes, this is compatible with "Fire Damage Rebalance"):
https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2908902180

You just need to download the source code (subscribe via steam then google where to find the folder that has mod code) then just kinda do the opposite of what the above mod does. You'd have to use a "rand" (random) function to pick a random body part, and would have to create an array of body parts for the random number to pick from. Basically copy all these instructions into chatGPT along with my code linked above and you're pretty much there. Also learning how to launch zomboid in debug mode would help a lot because, like with most programming tasks, the code will 100% have bugs at first.

thanks bro

Nice mod, thanks! Any idea if it's possible to have it give you loads of burn wounds to balance it?

Preventing the game world from burning is a whole different thing to zombies and players unfortunately. I can make every space in the game not be able to burn but it would cause a crazy amount of bugs like doors and windows not working correctly.
Have a look at my other mod:
Less Fire at start of CDDA challenge:
https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2937011330

If you download it and look at the source code, you can easily figure out how to make areas unburnable. Just don't make a space unburnable if it's on either side of a door or window or it'll glitch it out. You can google "project zomboid map" to find the coordinates of each space in the game world which you want to make unburnable. I can't make all houses unburnable because it would be way too much manual work.

bro i love your mod.
Could you make a mod so that the fire only damages the players and the zombies? but that it does not damage any structure such as houses or containers? On my server we would love to be able to burn other players or zombies but we have disabled the fire so that they do not troll by burning houses or loot areas

its real good because i felt like forever before they burned

Right now, this second, I'am playing with max toughness zombies and I'm in a car with the door blocked waiting for the 400 zombies outside to finally burn to death, It has been 30 minutes.

I'm using it in Single player and I've muster like 12 molotovs for cleaning dead meat lol... It's working normally in my case.

Looks like it isnt working anymore for me.

thx man!!!!

Yep

Does it work in single player?

Thanks :)

This Is the way... Faster and realistic burning zeds. Thanks for the mod! It works perfectly and it does make your time more valuable.

Fantastic!

Thanks Paper-sama, I just double-checked my mod.info and it is FBR. I have no idea how I named it incorrectly. I've edited the mod description to show the correct mod ID.

Workshop ID: 2908846234
Mod ID: FBR

Apparently it's B, not D

2908846234
FDR

Would it be possible to get the two IDs needed to run this on a server? Thanks!

Thank you, agent.
By the way, the "fire resistance" mod on the workshop allows you to change the damage to anything you like. The only disadvantage is needing to set it on each new game.

Was looking for something that makes fire similar to how it is in Left 4 Dead, while not an exact match it's still very much appreciated

Yes, it can. It updates every player's fire resistance every 10 in-game minutes.

Can this mod be added mid game?

no problemo
