What does this mod do?
Introducing the 'Less Spongy Player' mod, a game-changer for your gameplay experience. Ever found yourself frustrated by becoming an invincible tank after leveling up? Look no further! With this mod, you're in control of your character's destiny.
This mod allows you to choose the rate at which your health increases when you level up. Say goodbye to being an unstoppable juggernaut. You can select from four distinct options: 5, 10, 12 (recommended), or 15 extra health points per level, tailoring your character's progression to match your preferred playstyle.
This means you stay right in that sweet spot, where the game remains challenging without becoming overly punishing or too easy. Whether you crave intense battles or a more balanced gaming experience, 'Less Spongy Player' gives you the freedom to decide how your character evolves. Take control of your destiny and redefine your journey with this mod!
Important
The changes do not apply directly. You have to level up or use something, which changes your stats. So your health gets updated.
If you dont want to wait, you can use two console commands to update your health directly:
player.getav endurance -> This returns a value. For example 1. Use the value below
player.setav endurance 1Then your health value has been updated.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 418 endorsements and over 32k downloads — clearly a popular tweak.
- Simple concept that directly addresses a common complaint about late-game tankiness.
- Configurable settings mean you can dial in exactly the difficulty you want.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in September 2023 — may not be compatible with the latest game version.
- Only affects player health gain, so if you're looking for broader difficulty changes, this won't cover them.
For 7 Days to Die players who find the default health scaling too forgiving and want a more challenging endgame. Also great for those who want to fine-tune their difficulty without overhauling the whole game. Skip if you prefer the vanilla progression or want a comprehensive difficulty mod.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since this mod adjusts health gain per level, pair it with increased zombie difficulty for a balanced challenge.
- Check the mod's settings file (if any) to tweak the health gain value to your liking before starting a new game.
- If you're playing on a dedicated server, make sure the mod is installed on both client and server to avoid desync.
