Faded's Afflictions
Hidden curses, controlled by the admin. Faded's Afflictions is a multiplayer-first admin tool that lets server staff secretly apply persistent afflictions to online players, who then experience local-only disturbances.
Five afflictions
Paranoia, phantom sounds, shattered mind, watcher and artifact, applied for a set time or permanently.
What players feel
Panic and stress spikes, fake footsteps, knocks, window hits, growls and whispers, brief SCP-650-style phantom figures, artifact overlays, cold spots and darkness pulses.
Admin GUI
A red eye button near the left sidebar (or the [ key) opens a panel listing online players as AFFLICTED or CLEAR, with apply, remove and cure-all controls.
Chat commands
/afflict, /cureaffliction, /cureallafflictions and /listafflictions for quick control.
Cure item
Optional Stabilizing Pills can cure or suppress symptoms.
Multiplayer-safe
The server owns affliction data, saved by SteamID. Only the afflicted player gets their symptoms; hallucinations are local UI effects and never spawn real zombies.
Requirements
Project Zomboid Build 42.20.2+. Afflictions persist through death by default. Some audio, item and model assets are reused with permission from They Are Watching by Twuben and SCP-650 by BitBraven; credits are in the mod folder.
