Additional Debuffs

[Roland]

I love all the new debuffs and am hoping for more. Please add any ideas you have for additional debuffs. here are ones I have heard and thought of that I think would be cool. Dehydration: Limited to desert biome if you let your thirst meter drop too low. Increases thirst drop, increases damage when thirst meter is depleted, makes your compass disappear. lasts until you are dead or your thirst meter fills up to a certain point. Asphyxiation: Limited to caves and underground areas and affected by depth. Similar to drowning in its effect and happens after staying underground without a gasmask for too long Broken Arm: makes using two handed tools impossible until it reduces to sprain at which point you can use two handed weapons and tools but their effectiveness is reduced. Radiation Poisoning: Right now going into radiation zones unprotected kills you fast. Better if it kills you slow. If you get this you are dead but you have a couple of days to get your affairs in order.... Shellshocked: A harsher debuff than the stunned one. Maybe if you get stunned again within a certain amount of time of being stunned the first time this one triggers. Your compass and meters disappear and your map is unavailable for a time leaving you to wander without the tools that simulate your mental awareness Hypothermia: Probably not doable until temperature, weather, and clothing are fully implemented.

Vomiting: If you are infected, you start vomiting every 5 minutes in game time, and it is not able to be held back. It reduces stamina and makes noise, as well as stops you from moving for a couple secs. If you are stealth, it forces you out of stealth, and you get sensed by any nearby zombies from noise and smell. The effect will pass in 30 secs, but in 5 more minutes better be in a safe place, or get antibiotics fast. This would give incentive to use antibiotics right away. Otherwise you can kind of cheat by staying infected when you are in harms way to avoid being reinfected, and use only 1 antibiotic later when you are safe. But with a recurring vomit debuff, you would want to cure it fast.
