PVP changes in Project Zomboid

Players should no longer get stuck in the hit reaction after being struck in PvP.

Fixed players occasionally becoming stuck in Hit Reaction state during PvP interactions.

The Enable melee PVP in Factions setting no longer turns on firearm PvP damage as well, so it now only enables melee PvP.

Fixed non-pvp zones being removed after server restart

Problems with how vehicles interact with players who have PVP turned off are fixed.

Fixed non-PVP player and vehicle interactions

Players with PVP off no longer take damage when hit by a vehicle.

Non-PVP players no longer receive damage when struck by a vehicle.

Players with PVP on take damage from vehicle hits unless the Player Damage From Vehicle Impact setting is set to None.

PVP players receive damage if the Player Damage From Vehicle Impact is not set to None.

PVP players can now be knocked down by vehicles when the server's KnockedDownAllowed setting is on.

Players with PVP off are no longer staggered or knocked down when hit by a vehicle.

Non-PVP players no longer damage vehicles.

Fixed bombs only doing damage to players with PVP enabled status

Servers can now switch PVP knockdowns on or off with a new option.

Added server option "KnockedDownAllowed" to enable/disable the PVP knockdown.

The PVP knockdown option is a stopgap that lets servers make PVP combat less frustrating until PVP combat is dealt with more directly later.

This is a stopgap change to give servers an option to make PVP combat less frustrating before we can address PVP combat more directly in the future.

PVP safety is now switched on automatically when a server has PVP disabled.

The PVP button no longer stops working for every player on the map after an admin shoots a player or is shot by one.

Players who have just joined a server now get every non-PVP zone instead of missing some of them.

Fixed newly connected player not having all the non PVP zones

Fixed players outside the Non-PVP zone being able to kill a player with a bomb located in that zone

Players in a non-PVP zone can no longer get rid of the PVP button cooldown.

Fixed player being able to remove PVP button cooldown in non-PVP zone

The PVP button's safety cooldown is now saved and restored when you enter and leave a non-PVP zone, so stepping into one no longer clears it.

Fixed player being able to remove PVP button cooldown when in a non-PVP zone. (Safety cooldown timer is now stored/restored when player enters/leaves non-pvp-zone) VHS Fix
