Standalone - Blood Bag/Health questions etc.

[Dortmunder (DayZ) 19]

Hey all.

 

I've got a few questions about blood bags. I've seen some video's of people using them, but still confused about a couple things.

 

1. When you take blood from someone, it removes(example, no idea what real numbers would be) 5000 blood, and then the receiver of the blood bag gains 5000 blood, correct? What's the point of this then? There doesn't seem to be much benefit to this, other than bringing someone back from the brink of death at the expense of another. Or is there a slight bonus, so that there's something to gain from blood bagging?

 

2. How do you tell what blood type you and other people are? Is there any way to "convert" blood to your type? Or do you have to hunt someone down on the server that has your blood type :x

 

3. Does food regenerate health, or do you regenerate slowly over time? If food regenerates health, does anything else, like drinks?

1. You can save someone's life if they're in immediate danger.

2. Find a blood test kit.

3. Over time, Slowly, When in a healthy state. ie Fullish hunger and well hydrated.

Here's a compatibility  chart, For Question 2.
The general rule of thumb, Is O- is a universal donor
AB+ Is a universal Receiver
+ blood will almost always send a - person in to shock ( Irl not sure about in game, It should though. )
O- can only take O-
