📋 About This Mod
This mod is aimed at people that just want to remove skill loss on death.
There are a lot of mods already that achieve the same thing but after looking at them they all do way too many things that I didn't want or they had bugs.
My mod simply removes the call to the method that lowers skills when you die, that's all, as such this mod will hardly ever break. Everything else is untouched.
It might be incompatible with other mods that use the LowerAllSkills method from the game, however the worst that might happen is that my mod will not work.
Required BepInEx, just put the file on the plugins folder inside the BepInEx folder.
Works on dedicated servers (it's better to install on both server and clients machines, I'm not sure how it will behave if not used by everyone and the server).
TLDR: This is a minimalistic mod aimed at people that use few mods and don't want all the features from other mods that also disable skill loss.
Installation : Put the dll file in the BepInEx/plugins folder.
No Skill Loss on Death removes the skill penalty upon death in 7 Days to Die, letting you keep all earned progression. It's a straightforward quality-of-life tweak for players who find the death penalty frustrating, with 336 endorsements and over 14k downloads.
