Original Body

About the PR

This PR changes the damage numbers of the zombie infection. It also increases the chances of getting infected per bite, with and without clothing.

Why / Balance

Most zombies are created through people getting bit to death, or infecting already dead bodies. Wearing full clothing makes it very unlikely you'll actually get infected before you fall into a critical condition. The zombie infection doing blunt damage means you constantly bleed, making it very obvious you are infected, and makes it very easy to self treat and avoid turning as long as you have Band-Aids. Pure poison damage is much harder to self treat, and overall somewhat slows down the zombie virus from taking hold if you are receiving proper medical care.

Yea it was reverted because of a miscommunication resulting in a shitton of DeltaV PRs being merged without first having prerequisite PRs from Wizden.
