Pain and infections healing overtime

Recommended Posts

I didn't find similar thread with search function, so i am making a new thread.

Right now infections and especially pain mechanics are kinda silly. It isn't very realistic that if you get wounded, treat your wound; you will still feel pain for all eternity until you find some painkillers. You should be able to eventually ride it out. Painkillers and antibiotics could give you instant relief, but you should be able to heal overtime too. Even without medicine.

Of course timetable of your healing is big issue and it is very much debatable. You need to stay sick long enough to make pills/antibiotics matter, but short enough that you have some hope to see a day when your screen isn't shaking anymore, even without pills. With pain you could have a system where at first your screen shakes like you were having epileptic seizure, but after and hour or two your shakes slowly calm down and after 3-4hours they stop all together.

Curing infection over time could have the same system as getting infections has right now. But in reverse. Current system is: at 50% temp you have a small chance to get an infection every x amount of time. But after each % less than 50, your chances to get infected increase

Healing infection could have the same system, but in reverse. So as long as you keep yourself warm and dry, you will eventually be okay. Eventually meaning that still annoyingly long, so antibiotics would stay useful.

Infection only lowers your health to 10k or by 2k (not reallt sure as i never got it myself).

I manage the pain even with the scarce amount of painkillers but it still is supposed to go away on itself, yes.
