Problem still exists. if you are caught in a melee fight with more than one zombie it's a game breaking assured death. Melee weapons won't hit, punches won't work, guns won't fire, it's as if the LMB is unbound.

Items spawn on server restart. If the server hadn't restarted for 3+ hours when you joined, it's very possible that most of the places you visited were already looted bare of any items.

Killing on sight is not a problem, it's a feature, DayZ is a survival PVP game.

It does, you have to achieve the "healthy" status. If your blood is lower than maximum, it will say "healing" instead, I've done it before.

Confirming this.

Boxes of 5.56mm ammo just like 7.62mm ammo have to be emptied and the rounds loose in your inventory before being loaded into a magazine.

Loot doesn't spawn like it used to in the mod, loot is added on server restart only. If no loot is present, the area you are in as already been looted. Same goes for zombies, they are spawned on restart so if you see none, someone's taken care of them.

I can confirm this. Also thereafter you will receive three subsequent messages telling you that your wounds feel better, so it's working. Maybe it says you're sick to represent that you are hurting from desinfecting your wounds, putting alcohol on wounds is indeed painful.

I've had this and from my experience it was rabbits making zombie sounds.
