📋 About This Mod
In the vanilla game falling would generally leave Geralt completely unharmed, or instantly kill him. I have created my own falling damage formula to use instead, with a steady increase in damage over distance. Additionally this removes Geralts Max HP from the equation, so a tougher Geralt (say with a bunch of green mutagens) would be able to survive a higher fall.
This modifies the actor.ws file.
I also added a readme detailing how my formula operates, and how you can quickly modify it yourself if you wish.
Reduced Falling Damage by phlowerchild evens out the falling damage curve, making it easier to judge survivable falls and allowing you to fall from greater distances without dying. A simple gameplay tweak with 376 endorsements, last updated in 2016.
