@Exxodous-I have a lot of other players and servers running the mod and no one is reporting crashes like you describe. With out a output log I really can not help you any.
@Erik Louden-
You do have to tend to a gash after you stop the bleeding from a boar goring you but it doesn't automatically do anything else. EVERYTHING that hits you will build upon your wounds. If you have a bandaged wound of any type and receive more damage from something that pushes your wound status to the next level then you will have a new wound. Each wound stage comes with its own issues like a gash, pain, broken leg and so on.
After you complete tending to a bite wound it adds to your wound stat when finished. So if you have a bruise then finish tending to a bite your wound will jump up to small wound because though you have stopped the Z-Virus you still have to tend to your wounds until they are completely healed.
The wound system is a ladder. You are pushed up the ladder by getting hurt and you go down the ladder by tending to the wounds with the first stage "Bruises" fading with time. Getting hurt at any time will push you back up the ladder.
@obsidianmcbovril-
Working as intended. If you get a nail in your foot and you pull the nail out does your body magically instantly heal? No. You would still need to tend to a wound...right? Like explained above, getting hurt adds to your wound stat. So if you had a "small wound" and got burnt then treated it with aloe you would then have a "wound". Most bad debuff wounds like burns and bites add to your wound stat either when tended to, when applied or when expired.
How is it ridiculous that when you catch your self on fire you have to put it out?(seems normal) Then after you douse the fire you have to treat the burn with aloe.(still normal)Then after some time you have to bandage it up and take some pain pills(still sounds pretty normal). This isnt a X-Man game and your not Wolverine so you dont instantly heal yourself.
If you successfully treat a burn wound it will increase you wound stat by one stage. If you do not treat your burn wound it will increase your wound stage by 3. So I wouldn't ignore a burn wound in the mod or real life.
P.S.
INCASE YOU DO NOT KNOW. THERE IS A VERY VERY OLD VANILLA GAME BUG THAT MAKES CONSUMING THINGS IN A CRAFTING MENU NOT WORK SOMETIMES. TFP KNOW OF IT . TO MAKE SURE YOU GET ALL THE CORRECT STATS AND BUFFS PLEASE CONSUME/USE EVERYTHING IN YOUR HAND ON YOUR TOOL BELT. NOT IN A CRAFTING MENU
