PVP is enabled so you can "accidently" harm or get harmed by survivors if your not careful. Or kill them on purpose, survivors have a chance to have a preper bag in their inventory with some supplies.

Survivors will retaliate against friendly fire

Push Backspace to toggle PVP



But you can give a survivor in your party a weapon, by placing it by thier feet WHEN THEY ARE IDLE and NOT fighting zombies. take them to safe place first so they will stand still.

You can give them range or Mele, Base or Mod weapons alike.

If they are currently holding a weapon they will put it in your inventory



likewise you can also drop food or water at thier feet, and they will take it and consume it.



Survivor spawn rate can be tweaked in the settings.lua file

Survivors spawn much less in the wilderness / outside of town

Survivors spawn rate Much higher in buildings

Survivors spawn rate decreases in areas you have already explored



Some survivors will spawn hostile and will attack anyone human or zombie.

Hostile survivors will not spawn if you have pvp turned off.



survivors don't need to "Sleep" but they can still get tired (low endurance). They cannot "rest" but they have increased enduracne regen when idle. So let them stand somewhere idle to rest.



Other than sleep, survivors need just about everything you need. Like food and water etc. Survivors that get too hungry will turn hostile. SoBeware.



There is a settings file you can edit to customize much of the settings:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\108600\786130456\mods\Survivors\media\lua\client\settings.lua

Open it with notepad and edit the values as described in the file.

You need to reload lua or restart pz to make your changes to this file take effect



Record your adventure is the survivor stories discussions!
