This Is How You Died

TIHYD (pronounced /taɪd/, as in the rise and fall of the sea) is a mod that focuses on adding fully configurable character aging functionality.

Your character will now age and become older as he survives the apocalypse, with all it's accompanying challenges and hardships, as well as a peaceful death!

When starting a new session I kept thinking how in the vanilla game you can theoretically never die, unlike what the infamous loading screen says. You can just plant crops and build some water containers, then camp inside your cosy little base. But what If even that life could end?

So then came the idea for This Is How you Died, an immersive and realistic way to add a simple endgame to your story, so that you do indeed always die, if you can get far enough that is.

• The hidden age field is given a use and increased with the actual years you survive in-game!
  
  
• Past a certain age your character can die, this event is based on your current age, health (obese, smoker etc...) and of course, a little pure old luck, just like IRL.
  
  
• Your hair will become gray/white with the passage of time!
  
  
• Slow trait loss and movement penalties or injuries at old ages. (FUTURE PLAN)
  
  
• Become hard of hearing or short sighted! (FUTURE PLAN)

Most of the features above can be configured in the sandbox mod settings.

This mod was built from the ground up with integration in mind, so it should be compatible with almost anything. On top of that, it can also serve as a framework, due to the tracked player age being publicly exposed for other mods to access.

Since the player age field is from the original game code (which is unused in vanilla) other mods that also change it may interfere with the ability to correctly use this mod as a framework.

If you're a modder, you can call the following interface to get the player age set by this mod:

• Can I install/uninstall this on an existing save?
  
  Yes, you can. Installing on an existing save will give your character the default age value. If you uninstall the mod, your character will stay at their current age permanently and you will no longer suffer changes related to this mod. Reinstalling the mod will resume age progression from where it left off.
  
  
• Does this work in multiplayer?
  
  Yes, it does.
  
  
• How do I set my starting age?
  
  In the sandbox mod settings. This means that in multiplayer servers, all players will have the same starting age. Unfortunately this was the best solution I could come up with without getting into UI modifications, to keep this mod highly compatible. Allowing individual ages for each player on a server will be a priority for the future of this mod.
  
  
• How can I see my current age?
  
  You have 2 choices here, you can either do some simple math with your survival time, or use a mod that changes the UI to display the hidden age field:
  
  
  1. Using math, when you have a watch equiped, you can see how many hours your character has been alive for in the info panel, after that simply calculate (hours / 8760), to convert your hours alive to years, then add them to your starting age. 8760 = 24hours * 365days
     
     
  2. If you prefer going the mod route (not recommend), Reorganized Info Screen shows the same age field that we keep updated and will display the increases done by this mod. The reason this option is not recommended is because most UI mods rewrite all of the panels they replace, which causes compatibility issues with any other mods that change those panels.
  
  
• Why write mods to make the game harder? Do you enjoy pain?
  
  Yes.
  
  
• What is the performance hit?
  
  Aside from the initialization there is only a script running once per in-game day, so your performance will remain untouched.
  
  
• Can I dye my hair after it turns gray/white?
  
  Of course, just remember that much like the way your hair grows back in vanilla so will it regain it's natural gray/white color after some time. Now you can fulfill all your mid-life crisis desires, hiding the fact that you are getting old, a truly realistic experience!
  
  
• Are these actual questions that people made or did you just write them all yourself?
  
  Yes.
