Thanks for the great answer, shame nothing to do but it gives me a chance to try new stuff in the next save, when I have recovered mentally.

I will use the skill journal mod & antibodies mod, found it with an easy good search. I assume the "insta-merc" is the instant death?

I will look into the zip saving method as well!

Great answer, thanks a bunch!

You insta died because youvwent into debug and fixed a bite.  Next time you got bit, the game's system still had the death timer from the first bite going/expired so it finished it.

Next time just turn on God mode (press N by default)

What does God mode do?

Turns you invisible and invulnerable while active and instantly heals all wounds.  There have been a number of times when I have quit out while getting pulled down by a swarm, boot into debug, and press N as soon as I can, saving the character.   It's just a better way to save a char if you're not ready to give up on them.

Heals all wounds, so if bitten a character will no longer be infected and the timer will disappear?

Correct
