Health and stamina system overhaul
🎯 Module Features
This mod completely redesigns the health and stamina system of "Red Dead Redemption 2" to bring a more realistic gaming experience!
---
❤️ Health system adjustment
- **Players and Horses**: Health no longer regenerates automatically (but some difficult enemies can)
- **Core Mechanism**: The basic life core is 50, each circle of aura provides 25 points, a total of 250 points (the golden core/halo effect is doubled)
- **NPC HP**: Now based on weight (150 lbs for human males, 1000 lbs for grizzly bears)
- **Hunting Experience**: Large animals are more difficult to hunt, while small animals are relatively easy to hunt.
💪 Optimization of physical strength system
- **Core Stamina**: The base value is 100, which is equivalent to a sprint distance of 400 meters/yards.
- **Upgrade Reward**: Each halo upgrade increases the sprint distance by 50 meters/yard
- **Different status**:
- Jogging consumes energy but the speed is very slow
- Restore stamina while walking
- Recovery speed is 1.5 times faster when standing/sitting
- Golden core/halo effect doubled
⚔️ Combat system improvements
- **Melee action**: Now also consumes stamina
- **Battle Duration**: Battles last longer due to health adjustments
- **NPC Adjustment**: No longer has armor, injury/serious injury threshold is based on game difficulty setting
🐎Mounts and animals
- **Horse Stamina**: Core value is 200, sprint distance is 4 times that of the player
- **Upgrade Reward**: Each halo upgrade increases the distance by 200 meters/yards
- **Other Animals**: Stamina system remains unchanged
🌊 Swimming mechanism
- **Swimming Endurance**: Both Arthur and John can swim longer
- **Consumption Speed**: Depending on the amount of movement, stamina is consumed twice as fast as before.
👁️ Death Eye System
- **Core Time**: Basic about 3 seconds
- **Upgrade Reward**: 1.5 seconds added to each level
- **Golden Bonus**: Golden core/halo effect doubled
⚠️ Notes
- Story missions and some environmental NPCs may have different numerical settings
- Contains other miscellaneous adjustments (knockdown threshold, fire vulnerability, etc.)

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.
Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
