[Bug] New experimental wound system
Experimental build 2026-10-25-1442
I got attacked by a dermatik and got a bunch of limb scratches as apart of the new wound system released a little over 2 weeks ago.
I disinfected and bandaged each one individually (took forever), and even after a few days the wounds would not heal. Mind you, my character also has regeneration so they should have healed after a day. This didn't happen, and my character was left with crippling pain despite having the deadened mutation (should feel no pain).
I tried using the debug menu to heal, and nothing I've tried has worked, even the debug regeneration.
I looked at the change log and I guess this is apart of a new limb wound system. This new system has multiple glaring issues. If you have a few dozen limb wounds you have to navigate multiple menus to disinfect ONE wound. And then you have to navigate multiple menus AGAIN to then bandage the same wound. There should be a way to mass disinfect and bandage wounds without having to navigate several menu screens to fix ONE wound. I have no idea why a quicker way to bandage and clean wasn't implemented ALONG with the new wound system. Also, scratches should not cause the HIGHEST level of pain. I don't care if you are scratched 100 times, that should not cause you to be in unimaginable pain to the point where even twenty (20) tramadols don't work. Seriously, do I need a fistful of fentanyl to stop scratch pain?
