Outbreak Squad Resilience FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I know if my character has a disease?
You'll see symptoms appear in your HUD like coughs, sneezes, or fever indicators. Open your health screen or use the mod's diagnostic tools to see which specific disease you're infected with and how advanced it is.
Can I treat diseases alone or do I need other players?
You can treat yourself using medical supplies and diagnosis tools, but some treatments are easier or faster with a teammate performing first aid on you. Multiplayer cooperation speeds up recovery but isn't strictly required.
What happens if I die with a disease?
The disease remains active and can spread to other players or persist in the world, so you'll need to find the correct cure even after respawning. This forces your team to track down proper treatment rather than just waiting for natural recovery.
How do I set up the mobile medical vehicle?
Deploy the vehicle in your world, then connect power cables to the rear electrical connection point and attach a power source like the yellow generators included in the mod. Once powered, it functions as a mobile medical station for your team.
Do I need to craft medical supplies or can I find them?
You can craft most medical supplies like bandages, syringes, and medicines using the mod's recipes, and the mod integrates with Just Enough Items so you can check recipes instantly. Medical clinics that spawn in villages also contain some pre-made supplies.
What's the difference between symptoms and diseases?
Diseases are the underlying illness (roughly thirty-five types), while symptoms are the visible effects like fevers or coughs that get worse over time if untreated. Treating the disease stops symptom progression.
Can I disable diseases and just use the vehicles and medical equipment?
Yes, the mod includes a simple config option that lets you turn off disease mechanics entirely while keeping the medical vehicles and equipment functional.
Do diseases spread between players automatically?
Diseases can spread to teammates, especially through close contact or shared medical equipment, so you'll need to manage who treats whom and keep infected players isolated if necessary.
What do I need to diagnose a disease?
Use the mod's diagnostic tools or medical scanning machines to identify which disease a player has. Once diagnosed, you can look up the correct treatment using your guides or Just Enough Items.
Does this mod work with other mods?
The mod is designed to work directly with Just Enough Items for recipe checking. Check the mod's documentation for compatibility with other medical or survival mods, as some may conflict with disease mechanics.
