PATHOGEN (HIATUS)

PATHOGEN adds several dangerous pathogens to the game. Look on in horror as the corpses of your enemies get back up, or hundreds of civilians start dropping dead from a brain-eating illness.

Infections can affect both NPCs and players. You can unleash a zombie virus upon not only your foes, but your friends too!
We are not responsible for anything that may happen to your friendship.

Infections won't affect you if you remain in good health. You can safely walk through a pile of brain rot-infested corpses if your health is greater than 90. Once actual protective measures against infection are implemented, this will likely change.

Over time, I will add more infections. Feel free to leave suggestions.

Don't forget to read about these infections in the discussions. You'll have to head to the actual discussions tab to find them.

This is my first addon, and was my first time working with lua. A good chunk of this code is derived from the work of much more talented creators.
