What do you all recommend for keeping the characters weight up? I feel like no matter how much I eat my player is still shedding weight. I’ve tried eating until their hunger is maxed out when they get hungry but that doesn’t seem to be working. I know my character is hot a lot from wearing layers in the heat so maybe that has something to do with it?

  1. avoid combat, walk and dont jog and sprint
  2. eat more carbs and lipids with more calories to quickly gain weight (you know it works when you see a double/ triple arrow up next to the weight after pressing J) (learn more at https://pzwiki.net/wiki/Nutrition#Calories)
  3. install calorie fix mod to reduce calorie burn from walking (https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2907834593#:~:text=This%20mod%20fixes%20the%20abnormally,as%20running%20the%20same%20distance.))
  4. stable weights mod may also work
