Resident Medic

Resident Medic attempts to implement the healing system in the Resident Evil games on top of the existing healing system within Project Zomboid. These items are designed to be very powerful though a bit more rare and requiring more effort to keep in stock.

How To Get

TL;DR:
Cities: Green, Red, Blue Herb foraging
Forests: Better GRB foraging and can find Yellow Herbs
Mixed Herb Recipes: Loot Gardening Supply Stores and Bookstores
First Aid Sprays/Boxes/Umbrella Recipes: Loot hospitals and military medical facilities

You will find the various herbs through foraging, from rural regions to urban regions though only after you've found and read the Medicinal Benefits of Herbs. Once you've done so and have obtained Foraging 1, you'll then be able to find Green, Red, and Blue Herbs as potted plants in urban zones. If you find yourself in need of more herbs than can be found there and have at least Foraging 3, you can head to the Forests and Deep Forests to find wild growths of herbs. Not only are the Herbs more common there, you'll can also obtain more of them at a time. Additionally, the Yellow Herb, which offsets the negative effects of the Green Herb's healing is only found in these rural zones.

Additionally, you will be able to rarely find First Aid Sprays in places where medicine can be found. These are powerful items that provide the same effect as the complete GRBY Mixed Herb. Even less common are the First Aid Boxes. These are a variant of the First Aid Spray that contains three uses while weighing twice that of a First Aid Spray. You can also refill the First Aid Box with additional First Aid Sprays. The First Aid Box can be very rarely found with army medical supplies, survivor houses, and hospitals.

First Aid Sprays and some other Umbrella products can be crafted with the right materials and enough First Aid skill once you have acquired and read the Umbrella Field Guide. AquaCure is a medicine that will relieve you of your Exercise Fatigue allowing you to keep focusing on getting those gains or squeeze in another workout session just before an outing. The Anti-Virus is a powerful prototype developed by Umbrella to resist the Knox Infection. it will not cure you of the disease, but it will at least reset its progression allowing you to eke on for another day.

The book Medicinal Benefits of Herbs is most commonly found in garden supply stores and bookstores but can also be uncommonly found in libraries. The Umbrella Field Guide is even rarer and typically found in army medical facilities, survivor houses, and hospitals.

The Effects

All medical effects of the herbs affect the whole body, healing all they are capable of at once. Additionally, the negative effects of Green Herbs are reduced by each level of skill in First Aid while Yellow Herbs will minimize these effects even further regardless of FA level.

All recovery items can be used by either Right Clicking and selecting "Use Recovery Item" or by dragging and dropping the item onto a wound. Do note that you need to remove all foreign objects before the recovery items can heal those wounds.

Other Notes

MP Compatibility:
The recovery items are now fully MP compatible. Medic players can now show off their superior First Aid skills by healing your friends with less negative effects and more health restored.

Balance Feedback:
Feel free to leave comments on the state of rarity as it currently is. I aim to make these items to not completely replace the vanilla healing system but to be something that can be used in a pinch every so often. I would also like to hear thoughts on the recipes for the Umbrella products.
