Just to clarify on attributes, these are linked to hunger, thirst and sleep in different ways. Being hungry has a bigger impact on endurance, while thirst would drop your intelligence the most. In specific attributes are linked as follows:

Strength 3, 1, 3
Intelligence 2, 6, 2
Willpower 1, 3, 3
Agility 2, 1, 3
Speed 2, 2, 2
Endurance 6, 1, 3
Personality 1, 1, 1
Luck 1, 1, 1

These numbers are linked to hunger, thirst and sleep (in that order). As you can see intelligence and endurance are 2 attributes which are adjusted the most (max 10). Luck and personality hardly change at all (max 3). It's therefore likely you'll see endurance and intelligence as the first attributes showing a loss (still takes about 4-5 hours though). It also depends on how high your attributes are. This because it's calculated as a percentage.

Anyway, as an example, when attribute loss is set to 25% and your intelligence and luck both are set to 60, your intelligence can drop at most 15 (10*25*60/1000) while luck can drop no more than 4.5 (3*25*60/1000).

Thanks for your comment and endorsement. I've uploaded a new update (v1.9) with a number of new additions. It adds the ability to refill canteens with ale, beer, mead, wine and blood. The canteens have been renamed to properly display their contents. Vampire characters can recover from hunger and thirst by drinking the blood from blood fountains.

Intensive tasks (swimming, running, etc.) now increase stat/attribute loss faster than doing lighter tasks. Also, an option was added to display the player character's general health (for whoever not using HUD Status Bars).

[Maskar]

A new version (1.9.1) is now available for download, improving the stat/attribute loss calculation for performing intensive tasks. In specific it lowers the impact of power attacks and casting and now also takes into account normal attacks and if a weapon is out or not.

Please note that Bananasplit Better Cities is highly recommended for additional in-game water sources (fountains, etc.).

Although I'm rather pleased with how this mod is currently functioning, any suggestions on further improving it are of course still welcome. Thanks.

Can we fill the canteens with blood from corpses?Also it would be really nice if the vampire players could drink blood from dead animals or creatures but only to satisfy a bit of hunger and thirst, as the human blood is the sweetest XD
Thank you

Another quick update (v1.9.2) adding the ability for vampire characters to refill their canteens with blood when feeding. This should kinda cover your suggestion and not make it too easy to refill canteens and avoid the vampire stage changes.

I've removed version 1.9.2 and will be updated soon with a number of changes.

Me again.

is anyone wondering why there are no files on this page????

Plus, i have installed the mod and i haven't had anything rally happen. Where are the wells or barrels in the photos.
I know i had trouble in the camping mod, and i am wondering if something similar is happening.

And, would you recommend the HUB status bars mod to go with this? would it make game-play easier? would you recommend it???

I've uploaded a new version (2.0) with a number of new features, including the ability to milk cows.

Just to clarify, the pictures in the images section are from additional mods, like Bananasplit Better Cities for additional in-game water sources (fountains, barrels, etc.) and Mr_Siikas farm animals for the cows.

HUD Status Bars would indeed be rather useful to check your hunger, thirst and sleep status. Going to the menu would (if turned on) also give a description of your general health though, so it's not 100% required.

Thanks for all the updates; just keeps getting better. Wish I could endorse it again!
