Exhaustion/Fatigue System

[Faced1111 0]

Im going to make this brief because i just got out of work and it was a long 12 hour day

So i was thinking of a exhaustion system as i was working, i was sweating alot and becoming dehydrated very quickly and came up with this idea.

As your water level drops your overall speed slows gradually, so lets say at 100% water your run speed is 100% when your water level is 75% your run speed would be 90%, h2o 50% run speed 75%...at 0% water your run speed i think should be around 40-50%.

Food could be incorporated as well to the numbers if wanted

If this system is implemented you should add a few new items

Redbull and/or some time of energy drink to get a temporary boost for 30min-1hr, common

Adderall - 12 hour boost...but you become dehydrated much faster, slightly less rare than antibiotics, found in hospitals, 1 bottle = 1-30 uses

The dehydration and food levels would have to decrease far slower than they do now because at the current rate you would have to eat an elephant every day just to keep moving at a decent pace.

But I don't discount the idea of a starving person move slower. It makes sense, but the way food and water is now I think is just fine. You need food but it isn't an emergency at all times.

ive had food be an emergency, only because i had to run through the wilderness haha, but i do agree the system in right now works perfectly, but to me it seems like an "alpha" system (i dont expect something like this to happen in a week, but in 6 months to a year i want to see the survival aspect increased

also its not like you need to keep at 100% water, the drain on the water level would be the same and the amount of drinks you get should be around the same, i just always have way to many and it would be nice to not pass over water/drinks all the time, i know this is a game but in a real life apocalypse i would drink/save all water/drinks i found because its the most important need in life

not necessarily just change my variables, it doesnt have to be 0% water = 50% max run speed make it 75% instead so its not too crazy
