[IIzTrollin 4]

I was just wondering what the white "broken" bones mean, one i know you cant walk or anything and oyu need to take mophing but there are two id like a more detailed discription if possible, along with why zombies poke you once and you start bleeding? i mean one scratch i start bleeding kinda gets annoying :|

I've never seen a zombie "poke" animation. Usually they are violently swinging their arms.

Ever take a punch to the face, or a globe puncturing gouge to the eye? You bleed.

[/quote']He means basically how the zombies hits you once and somehow each time this happens they sever a main artery and you start bleeding out.

exactly that, the first time you spawn and you get "scratch" by a zombie you will bleed no matter what. second time theres a 50% chance and so on from there. but my first question is still the most important what are those white broken bones?

[/quote']I'm fairly certain it means you have a fracture in your bone and until it goes away you can break your leg again much easier.

There are two white simbols that can pop up. The one that looks like a fractured bone signifies just that and needs to be treated, as you already stated, with morphine.

The other one which looks like a synapse (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a5/Neuron_synapse.png/534px-Neuron_synapse.png ) signifies pain or shock. Shock will pass over time, pain needs to be treated with painkillers. Pain will make your vision shake in 1st person and will last until it is treated.

Rocket stated on another thread that your vision will also start shaking once you get cold (your temp value in the debug monitor will be way bellow 100). To treat this you need to warm yourself up (running outside in the sunshine, close to a fire).

Hope this answers your question.

There's been times where I've been hit several times with no effect. SOme times, yeah one hit I'm bleeding, two hits and I have broken something...or in pain. Others I've been hit once and I'm lying on the ground in a passed out state unable to do anything.....thats with blood over 10k...I chalk that up to a cold clock in the knoggen.

Had a zombie spawn right next to me, go agro and knock me right out...in just a sec. But I was saved.
