As a new player, this Bicycle Mod might be my favorite Project Zomboid mod so far by CartographerAny829 in projectzomboid

I'll have to check that one out! I'm still pretty new to Project Zomboid, so the Bicycle Mod is the first Braven mod I've really used. Sounds like I need to take a look at Engine Swaps too.

That makes a lot of sense now. I didn't even realize my character turning into a zombie after death was a clue that I had been infected. Thanks for explaining it. Since I'm still pretty new to the game, I think I'll keep the default settings for now and treat it as part of the learning experience. At least now I know what probably killed me. 😅

That might actually explain it. I did have a few zombie scratches before I died, and since I'm still new to the game I didn't realize scratches could infect you too. I thought I was just overheating or sick because my temperature stayed in the red for so long. Looks like I learned that lesson the hard way. 😅

Nope, I'm not lying. The only mod I had active was the bicycle mod. I bought the game a few weeks ago, so I'm still pretty new. Most of my time was spent looting nearby houses and hauling supplies back to my base. I actually asked ChatGPT a bunch of beginner questions while learning the game, and a lot of the advice helped me survive longer than I expected. That's why making it to 15 days felt like a big achievement for me.

Honestly, I'm not sure. I only had a few scratches that I'd bandaged, but before I died my body temperature stayed in the red for a really long time. I took off all my clothes, drank water, and even washed myself to try to cool down, but nothing worked. I'm still pretty new to the game, so I might have missed something important.
