Learn By Doing Returns 2.6 (Deprecated)

This mod has to be installed on server and client updated for 2. 5, Let me know any issues with 2. 5

• []This mod adds 17 action skills to 7 days to die which are all levelled from 1 to 100 using in-game actions and skill books. (NOTE: currently speech can only be levelled through skill points and books due to some dead code by TFP. Will fix eventually)[/]

• []Removes the hated learn by reading system instead using a system of perks governed by your skills to unlock recipes with schematics re-added as well to provide an alternative progression method. Old skill magazines now give boosts to your skills but are much rarer.[/]

• []Reworks, removes and adds a variety of perks totalling up to about 100 perks with a variety of new supported playstyles.[/]

• []Provides minor changes to nerd armor and nomad armor to work better in the new progression system.[/]

• []Reworks ammo crafting to be based off of perks OR schematics and changes their old skill books to have new effects.[/]

• []Removes ALL stamina-on-kill effects to improve challenge and immersion. Completion bonuses of most weapon skill books are now a headshot damage boost.[/]

• []Also removes Urban Combat's adrenaline effect to make armor choices more meaningful, replaced with a carry weight buff.[/]

• []Reworks food and weapon/tool progression. You now have access to a greater variety of starting foods, like bacon and eggs, no longer requiring recipes and iron tier tools and melee weapons no longer require schematics BUT they have been returned to their alpha 19 state of requiring a workbench to craft.[/]

  Compatibility:

  • []The mod does NOT work with my Tools are Melee weapons mod BUT the functionality is included in this mod so you don't need it anyway.,[/]

    []You need patches to play with most weapon mods etc.[/]

  Disclaimers:
  • []Google Gemini was used for data replacement (this just means I used it to reduce the amount of copy pasting I had to do, which saved time.) and for data visualization (this means I used it to make me some graphs while testing the XP curves)[/]

    []No ai was used to write any text, write any code, generate ideas, create any images, or other assets. You will not feel any AI presence in the mod what-so-ever[/]

  Usability:
  • []This is v1. 3 of the mod. It will have bugs and balance issues. Let me know in the bug reports or discussion tabs if you have concerns to report.[/]
