Antiserum Hardcore [MP 41.60+]

Description
This is a hardcore version of a Antiserum mod by b1n0m (Workshop ID: 2127326898). This was developed mainly for my own personal use on a personal server with friends. The mod plays the same as the original mod, however I wanted to change it to better reward a nurse/doctor start. Special thanks to b1n0m for making this excellent mod and also to Santillious who made the test tube icons.

Here is a summary of the changes:
- When you test yourself for infection it will tell you the stage of the infection you are at instead of a %.
- The effective ranges of the 3 antiserums have been tweaked. Even "The Cure" will not save you if you are too far gone.
- You can only use scalpels to extract blood samples from zombie corpses.
- Minimum skill requirements have been changed for various actions.
- Reduced number of test tubes in test tube pack from 100 to 50.
- Samples are fresh for only 1 day instead of 3.
- Small changes to the EN tool tips.

New Minimum Requirements:
First Aid 2: Create a Research Journal, test for infection. (Nurse start)
First Aid 3: Create weak antiserum. (Doctor start)
First Aid 5: Create regular antiserum.
First Aid 7: Develop "The Cure" (no change from original).

Test for Infection Results:
<=0%: You are not infected!
<=20%: The virus is present in your blood stream.
<=60%: The virus is in the beginning stage of mutation.
<=80%: The virus is in the middle stage of mutation.
>80%: The virus is in the final stage of mutation.

Antiserum Types:
Weak: Requires 10 samples. Reduces infection to 20%. Usable up to 70% infected.
Regular: Requires 20 samples. Reduces infection to 1%. Usable up to 85% infected.
The Cure: Requires 50 samples. Completely cures the infection. Usable up to 95% infected.

Please note that the infection results and antiserum max limit don't necessarily match. This is intentional so that there is a little bit of a grey area on whether or not the injection will actually work.

Hi, I really like this mod is there any new about the use of the instruments in the second image? I really would like to work harder to get the cure because once you have the laboratory item you are good to go, the idea of note in one hospital or military base with the recipe is great to, besides any of that thanks for such a great mod.

@Literally Rokem
I translate the mod to pt-br, do you mind updating the mod with the files I pass?

I seem to have a problem with Weak Serum working even when in the "final stage of infection" (>80%). It still reduces the sickness to "present in the bloodstream".

any update on the 3d items?

@CrystallineThunder there isn't a sandbox setting for that but you can easily accomplish this yourself. Navigate to your mods/antiserumHC/media/scripts/ folder, and open Antiserum.txt. in there is a recipe called 'Create The Cure' and within that recipe entry is the setting

AntiserumSample=50,

change this number to whatever you need (keep the comma though, v important). Above this recipe are the entries for the other curatives with a similar sample settings, so you can change these to your liking as well. Do the same settings on your game, your friend's game, and your server's mod settings as well and you should be good. Hope this helps

Keep in mind that if the mod updates, this setting will be reverted, but you can just change it again if you want.

@Gary I've had that happen to me too, and I'm not sure why it does it. It seems to happen if you have a high percentage of infection when you try to apply the cure. What I've found as a workaround is to apply a strong serum first then the cure right after.
