:The character is losing blood from an open wound, either from a [[Health#Types of injuries|bite, scratch or other injuries]]. The severity of the bleeding dictates how quickly the character loses vitality. This moodle can be removed by [[Health#Bandaging|bandaging]] the bleeding body parts, or countering the health drain by being [[#Hungry|fed]]. Note that zombies are attracted to the scent of a bleeding player.

:This moodle indicates that the character is bored from inactivity. It is triggered by standing idle for too long, being indoors, or eating poor quality food (either due to low quality or lack of variety in ingredients). This moodle can be removed by reading [[:Category:Literature|literature]], watching [[television]], listening to [[CD]]s or a [[radio]], killing zombies, and being active outdoors. As the moodle's intensity increases, so does the risk of becoming [[Moodles#Unhappiness|unhappy]].

:The character has been exposed to [[weather|cold weather]], or stayed [[#wet|wet]] long enough to contract a cold. While suffering from a cold, the character will occasionally cough and sneeze, attracting nearby zombies. The sound can be dampened with [[tissue]]. To cure a cold faster, the player should stay [[#Hungry|well-fed]] and avoid being wet or cold. Having the Resilient [[Trait]] also helps with recovery, and Prone to Illness does the opposite.

Being cold also increases the chance of catching the flu.

:The character and their clothing have become soaked, typically due to [[Rain|rain]], but this can also occur due to sweat from exertion (exercise, sprinting, etc.).

The character can slow the rate of wetness by equipping an umbrella in their first or secondary slot; it won't fully stop them from getting wet, but it stops the "Soaking" and "Drenched" moodle. Having their clothes wet will also decrease their insulation.

:The character is in pain, from a wound, exercise fatigue or other [[Health#Types_of_Injuries|injuries]]. This moodle can be removed by using [[painkillers]]. The level of pain is more or less consistent with the severity of the character's injuries. Having severe pain or agony with near-full health is an indicator that the player may be infected.

:The character is panicking, usually due to the sight of zombies. Panic makes your vision cone narrower, reduces critical chance, push knockdown chance and knockback, melee damage and severely reduces accuracy with firearms.  This moodle can be removed and prevented temporarily by using [[beta blockers]] or [[Items#Alcohol|alcohol]]. [[Sleep]] will boost the rate of panic loss, but there is a chance when sleeping for a character to abruptly wake up with a high level of panic due to having a nightmare. Fortunately, with time, this moodle will become less common as the character becomes acclimated to the zombies. Your character recovers from panic quicker each day as time ticks over to midnight to the next day up to a maximum of 150 days survived.

Gameplay > Player > Moodles

A moodle is an indicator of the current emotional and physical state of the player, similar to status effects in role-playing games. Moodles are displayed in the top right-hand corner of the screen, and hovering the cursor over an individual moodle provides further information.

List of Moodles

File:Moodle bleeding.png Bleeding

The character is losing blood from an open wound, either from a bite, scratch or other injuries. The severity of the bleeding dictates how quickly the character loses vitality.
This moodle can be removed by bandaging the bleeding body parts. Note that zombies are attracted to the scent of a bleeding player, and the health drain from mild bleeding can be countered by being fed.
Minor Bleeding
"Bandage required."
The character has at least one bleeding wound. Slow health loss over time if left unchecked.
Bleeding
"Strength and speed reduced."
The character has at least two bleeding wounds. Moderate health loss over time if left unchecked.
Severe Bleeding
"Strength and speed severely reduced."
The character has at least three bleeding wounds. Serious health loss over time if left unchecked.
Massive Blood Loss
"Death imminent"
Massive bleeding from four or more wounds that will lead to death unless dealt with immediately. Note that neck wounds, while not considered as Severe or Massive Bleeding, drain health the fastest.

File:Moodle bored.png Bored

This moodle indicates that the character is bored from inactivity. It is triggered by standing idle for too long, being indoors, reading Skill books, or eating poor quality food (either due to low quality, or using stale, rotten or repeat ingredients).
This moodle can be removed by reading literature, watching television, listening to CDs or a radio, becoming panicked, and being active outdoors. While this moodle does nothing on its own, it can lead to unhappiness.
Getting Bored
"Occupy yourself, or seek entertainment"
The character is starting to get bored. No effects yet.
Bored
"In danger of becoming unhappy"
The character is bored. Unhappiness rises at a slow rate.
Very Bored
"High chance of becoming unhappy"
The character is highly bored. Unhappiness rises at a moderate rate.
Extremely Bored
"Very high chance of becoming unhappy"
The character is incredibly bored. Unhappiness rises quickly.

File:Moodle cold.png Has a Cold

The character has been exposed to cold weather, or stayed wet long enough to contract a cold. While suffering from a cold, the character will occasionally cough and sneeze, attracting nearby zombies. The sound can be dampened with tissue.
To cure a cold faster, the character should stay well-fed, get plenty of rest, and avoid being wet or cold.
Having the Resilient Traits helps with recovery by significantly reducing the chance of catching a cold (-55%), its progression speed (-20%) and strength (-50%), while Prone to Illness does the opposite (+70% chance, +20% cold strength, +50% progression speed).
The Outdoorsman trait also greatly reduces the chance of catching a cold in the first place (10% the usual chance from cold weather or wetness).
Runny Nose
"Occasional sneezing."
The character has a small chance of sneezing or coughing.
The Sniffles
"Prone to sneezing."
The character may sneeze or cough more frequently.
You Have A Cold
"Sneezing and coughing. Speed and healing reduced."
The character sneezes and coughs often, making avoiding zombies difficult.
You Have A Nasty Cold
"Speed and healing now severely reduced."
The character sneezes and coughs continuously, likely attracting zombies constantly unless in a remote area or indoors.

File:Moodle dead.png Dead

The character has taken too much damage, lost all of their health and passed away.
This is the moodle that results from dying, provided that the player wasn't infected instead.
Deceased
"High chance of becoming rat food."

File:Moodle drunk.png Drunk

The character has drunk alcohol and, thus, become intoxicated. Being drunk greatly increases fatigue, depending on the level of drunkness. It also makes your character generate less heat, diminishes weapon accuracy, and delays driving controls.
This moodle will disappear over time, with sleep and rest speeding up the process.
A Bit Tipsy
"Downed some booze"
Inebriated
"Co-ordination slightly impaired."
Plastered
"Coordination impaired"
Utterly Shit-Faced
"Iss you an' me 'gainst the wurld. I love you. I LOVE YOU."

File:Moodle endurance.png Endurance

The character is exerted from physical activities such as running, sprinting, vaulting fences or swinging their weapon. They will walk, run, sprint, and swing weapons slower, and have a higher chance of tripping.
Endurance recovers on its own when the character is idle and suffering no further negative effects. This can be sped up by sitting on the ground or in a vehicle, resting on furniture, eating Ginseng or having high Fitness skills. Conversely, walking or sneaking sharply decreases, or even nullifies, recovery.
Note that fatigue greatly reduces endurance recovery.
Moderate Exertion
"Take a break."
The character is becoming exhausted. 50% reduced melee damage. 0.07 decreased attack speed. 10% increased chance to trip when run/sprint vaulting a low fence. 5% less chance to climb tall fences. 15% slower walking/running/sprinting speed.
Occurs when 25% of total endurance has been used.
High Exertion
"Can barely run"
The character is exhausted. 80% reduced melee damage. 0.14 decreased attack speed. 20% increased chance to trip when run/sprint vaulting a low fence. 10% less chance to climb tall fences. 30% slower walking/running speed. Sprinting disabled.
Occurs when 50% of total endurance has been used.
Excessive Exertion
"Can barely walk"
The character is highly exhausted. 90% reduced damage. 0.21 decreased attack speed. 30% increased chance to trip when run/sprint vaulting a low fence. 15% less chance to climb tall fences. 45% slower walking speed. Running and "power-walking" disabled.
Occurs when 75% of total endurance has been used.
Exhausted
"Can barely move"
The character is thoroughly exhausted. 95% reduced damage. 0.28 decreased attack speed. 40% increased chance to trip when run/sprint vaulting a low fence. 20% less chance to climb tall fences. 60% slower walking speed. The character will no longer be able to swing the sledgehammer, wood axe, and similar heavy melee weapons.
Occurs when 90% of total endurance has been used.

File:Moodle heavyLoad.png Heavy Load

The character is carrying too much, which results in slower and clumsier movement. At Very Heavy Load and above, the character will take continuous, albeit non-lethal damage. This damage can be stalled if the character sits on the ground.
The chances of tripping from stumbling into zombies, running and jumping over fences, and failing to climb tall walls also increases.
Fairly Heavy Load
Total Weight: 0.1+
"Carrying a little too much."
The character is encumbered. 13% increased chance to trip when run/sprint vaulting a low fence. 5% less critical chance. 0.07 less attack speed. 8% less chance to climb tall fences. 15% slower walking/running/sprinting speed.
Heavy Load
Total Weight: 2+
"Movement speed reduced."
The character is moderately encumbered. 26% increased chance to trip when run/sprint vaulting a low fence. 10% less critical chance. 0.14 less attack speed. 16% less chance to climb tall fences. 30% slower walking/running speed. Sprinting disabled.
Very Heavy Load
Total Weight: 4+
"Movement speed highly reduced."
The character is very encumbered. 39% increased chance to trip when run/sprint vaulting a low fence. 15% less critical chance. 0.21 less attack speed. 24% less chance to climb tall fences. 45% slower walking/running speed. Running disabled (can only "power-walk").
Endurance decreases slowly while moving, and will take damage slowly until at 75% Health.
Extremely Heavy Load
Total Weight: 6+
"Can't take much more! Movement compromised."
The character is extremely encumbered. 52% increased chance to trip when run/sprint vaulting a low fence. 20% less critical chance. 0.28 less attack speed. 32% less chance to climb tall fences. 60% slower walking speed.
Endurance decreases at a moderate rate while moving, and will take damage until at 75% Health.

File:Moodle hyperthermia.png Hyperthermia

The character is getting too hot due to excessive heat exposure from a heat source, clothing, weather, vehicle heater, or exercise/exertion. Going indoors or wearing lighter clothing will remove this. Being hydrated is important to have good heat resistance.
This is also a sign of illness or zombie infection, as these lead to an increase in body temperature. Note that it is highly improbable to reach maximum Hyperthermia in the current version of the game, as sweat helps dissipate and control heat.
Note that, despite the reduction in speed, the character's sprinting ability is not affected currently.
Unpleasantly Hot
"Consider taking off clothing. Thirst increased."
The character is somewhat hotter than normal. Their thirst will increase slightly faster.
Occurs when core body temperature is above 37.5 C.
Overheated
"Thirsty. Sweaty. Over-exposed."
The character is quite a lot hotter than usual. Faster thirst and tiredness rate. 34% decreased attack speed. Slightly reduced movement speed.
Occurs when core body temperature is above 39 C.
Sunstruck
"Nauseous, unable to concentrate and desperate for liquids."
The character is very hot. Faster still thirst and tiredness rate. 67% decreased attack speed. Moderately reduced movement speed.
Occurs when core body temperature is above 40 C.
Hyperthermic
"Delirious from heat stroke and exposure. Severely endangered."
The character is far too hot. Significantly faster thirst and tiredness rate. Small reduction in awareness. 90% decreased attack speed. Severely reduced movement speed. The character will lose health very slowly.
Occurs when core body temperature is above 41 C.

File:Moodle hypothermia.png Hypothermia

The character is too cold due to a lack of warm clothes, staying wet, cold weather and wind chill or a vehicle's A/C. To combat hypothermia, the character can wear warmer clothes, stay indoors, build a campfire or turn on the heater in a vehicle. Being hungry, tired and unfit severely reduces the character cold resistance.
This moodle affects the character's speed, and the character will slowly lose health when hypothermic until at 1% health. Being cold also increases the chance of catching the flu.
Note that, despite the reduction in speed, the character's sprinting ability is not affected currently.
Chilly
"It feels a bit nippy around here..."
The character is starting to become cold. No effects yet.
Occurs when core body temperature is below 36.5 C.
Cold
"You need to find ways to keep warm."
The character is getting colder. 34% decreased attack speed. Moderately decreased walking/running speed.
Occurs when core body temperature is below 35 C.
Freezing
"Man alive. It is SO cold."
The character is very cold. 67% decreased attack speed. Significantly decreased walking/running speed.
Occurs when core body temperature is below 30 C.
Hypothermic
"Body and mind obsessed by the cold."
The character is extremely cold. 90% decreased attack speed. Severely decreased walking/running speed. Slowly loses health until at 1% Health.
Occurs when core body temperature is below 25 C.

File:Moodle wet.png Wet

The character and their clothing have become soaked, typically due to rain, but this can also occur due to sweat from exertion (exercise, sprinting, etc.). Prolonged exposure can increase the risk in which the player will get a cold, but the Outdoorsman and Resilient traits reduce the chances of catching a cold.
This moodle can be removed by going indoors out of the rain for a while, standing by a heat source, or drying oneself with a dish towel or bath towel.
The character can slow the rate of wetness by equipping an umbrella in their first or secondary slot; it won't fully stop them from getting wet, but it stops the "Soaking" and "Drenched" moodle. Wet clothes have decreased insulation, which makes getting cold more likely.
Damp
"Slightly damp. Rain, or sweat?"
The character is slightly wet from being in the rain for too long, or from overexertion. No effects yet.
Occurs at 15% total body wetness.
Wet
"Sweatier, or even more rained on?"
The character is somewhat wet from being in the rain for too long, or from overexertion.
Occurs at 40% total body wetness.
Soaking
"Chance of catching a cold."
The character is quite wet from being in the rain for too long, or from overexertion, and may become sick as a result.
Occurs at 70% total body wetness.
Drenched
"High chance of catching a cold."
The character is very wet from being in the rain for too long, or from overexertion, and is likely to become sick as a result.
Occurs at 90% total body wetness.

Moodle Icon Windchill.png Windchill

The character is exposed to wind, and their apparent temperature may be colder than the actual air temperature. The colder the air is, the stronger the windchill is.
The only way to get rid of this moodle is by going indoors.
Slight windchill
"It's feeling 5 to 10 degrees colder than it actually is."
Uncomfortable windchill
"It's feeling 10 to 15 degrees colder than it actually is."
Freezing windchill
"It's feeling 15 to 20 degrees colder than it actually is."
Horrific windchill
"It's feeling more than 20 degrees colder than it actually is."
At this point, getting cold is inevitable. Strong blizzards can trigger this moodle.

File:Moodle hungry.png Hungry

This moodle represents the character's hunger state. A red background indicates that the player needs to eat food. A green background shows that the character is well fed.
Being fed boosts strength, carry capacity and healing rate, whereas being hungry has the opposite effect, in addition to slower body heat generation.
Note that, currently, nutrition and hunger are entirely separate. Burning or gaining calories has no effect on this moodle. An emaciated character can still die when Full to Bursting; conversely, a starving character can die even if well overweight.

"Could do with a bite to eat."
The character is beginning to feel hungry. No effects yet.
Occurs when hunger is above 15%.

Positive Hunger Effects
Having any positive hunger moodle will increase the character's Carrying Capacity by 2 points. The player will also regain health faster. The buffs last only a short time, requiring constant nourishment to maintain the buffs.
A character who goes to sleep with a positive hunger moodle may wake mid-sleep from a night terror.

"Gnawing hunger entirely absent."
The character is not hungry, for now. The player heals faster and their strength is increased.

File:Moodle injured.png Injured

The character has been injured in some way and has lost health. This moodle is an indicator for the player's remaining health.
(Note: Effects on the character mostly depend on the wound location and type. However, strength will still decrease no matter what.)

No additional effects yet.
Occurs when health is below 80%.

File:Moodle pain.png Pain

The character is in pain, whether from a wound, exercise fatigue or other injuries. This moodle can be removed by using painkillers. The level of pain is more or less consistent with the severity of the character's injuries.
It is possible for the player to be in too much pain to sleep, requiring the use of items to rest. High level tiredness can allow them to sleep, even in severe or extreme pain. Sleeping in a poor-quality bed or a vehicle can lead to neck pain and slight damage for a short while upon awakening.
Minor Pain
"Feeling slight pain."
The character hurts somewhat. 5% increased chance to trip when run/sprint vaulting a low fence.
Pain
"Speed and accuracy slightly reduced."
The character hurts enough to have their abilities reduced. 10% increased chance to trip when run/sprint vaulting a low fence. Movement, Melee damage or Attack speed slightly decreased depending on the spot of the injury. Sleeping disabled.
Severe Pain
"Speed and accuracy reduced."

File:Moodle panic.png Panic

The character is panicking, usually due to the sight of nearby zombies. Panic makes your vision cone narrower, reduces critical chance, push knockdown chance and knockback, melee damage, and severely reduces accuracy with firearms.
This moodle can be removed and prevented temporarily by using beta blockers or alcohol, which greatly improve panic reduction speed. Sleep will boost the rate of panic loss, but there is a chance for a sleeping character to abruptly wake up with strong panic and stress due to a nightmare.
Characters accrue panic faster if a zombie is detected behind them. Re-spotting zombies increases panic, even if the character only turns around momentarily.
Over time, this moodle will become less common as the character becomes acclimated to the zombies. A character's panic recovery speed increases every day, as time ticks over to midnight, up to a maximum of 150 days survived.
Traits:
Characters with Desensitized can never gain levels of Panic from exposure to zombies, though they may still gain Panic from nightmares.
Agoraphobic and Claustrophobic characters will slowly gain panic in open and enclosed spaces respectively - the rate of panic depends on the number of visible tiles, meaning Claustrophobic characters may not get panicked in large enough rooms.
Brave reduces zombie-presence panic gain by 30%, whilst Cowardly instead doubles zombie-presence panic gain.
Hemophobic characters will gain panic if performing first-aid on themselves. Finally, characters with Adrenaline Junkie will gain a movement speed bonus when at Strong or Extreme Panic.
Slight Panic
"Do your best to remain calm"
1.3% decreased critical chance.
Panic
"Accuracy reduced"
2.3% decreased critical chance. 10% decreased melee damage. The character will stand up faster from a sitting position.
Strong Panic
"Accuracy severely reduced"
3.9% decreased critical chance. 20% decreased melee damage.
Extreme Panic
"Accuracy and vision severely reduced"
5.2% decreased critical chance. 30% decreased melee damage.

File:Moodle sick.png Sick

The character has contracted some sort of illness, whether through consuming raw/bad food or having been infected by a zombie. Food poisoning is reversible, so long as the character is well-fed, rested and especially consumes Lemongrass, whereas zombification can never be cured.
Cigarettes will cause some sickness if smoked, unless the character is a Smoker.
Note that, currently, drinking tainted water from a container (water bottle, kettle...) is almost always lethal, but drinking directly from the water source (river, lake, puddle, Water Collectors) is much safer and only slightly increases sickness.
Queasy
"Take things easy."
The character is beginning to feel ill. Mildly increased body temperature generation.
Health starts to decline if it's zombification or poisoning. Occurs when sickness is above 25%.
Nauseous
"Strength and healing reduced."
Carrying Capacity reduced by 1 point. Moderately increased body temperature generation. Moderately slower healing if it's due to bad food.
Health continues to decrease if it's zombification or poisoning. Occurs when sickness is above 50%.
Sick
"Strength and healing severely reduced."
Carrying Capacity reduced by 2 points. Further increased body temperature generation. Much slower healing if it's due to bad food.
Health reaches Severe Damage levels if it's zombification or poisoning. Occurs when sickness is above 75%.
Fever
"Increasing danger of death."
Carrying Capacity reduced by 3 points. Significantly increased body temperature generation. Health declines somewhat slowly if it's due to bad food.
Health reaches Critical or Highly Critical Damage levels if it's zombification or poisoning. Occurs when sickness is above 90%.

File:Moodle stressed.png Stress

The stress moodle will appear when the character is potentially infected, surrounded by zombies, covered in blood with the hemophobic trait, wakes up from a night terror, or has not smoked cigarettes for a while with the smoker trait.
Stress can be treated by smoking cigarettes, reading literature, and putting some distance from the zombies. This moodle is often accompanied by sickness, indicating the player's fear of infection or death.
Stress reduces the damage and accuracy of weapons (shaking hands...), and prolonged stress will lead to unhappiness.
Anxious
"On edge."
The character suffers from minor stress. No effect yet.
Occurs when stress is above 25%.
Agitated
"Nervous and jumpy."
The character is noticeably stressed. 10% decreased melee damage. Unhappiness rises slowly.
Occurs when stress is above 50%.
Stressed
"Sweaty palms. Gnawing fear."
The character is highly stressed. 20% decreased melee damage. Unhappiness rises moderately fast.
Occurs when stress is above 75%.

File:Moodle tired.png Tired

The character has stayed awake for an extended period of time, and is becoming tired. Fatigue leads to significantly reduced endurance regeneration - to the point of stopping altogether. The vision cone, weapon damage penalties and body heat generation also get worse with increasing tiredness.
This moodle can be removed by sleeping. Items like vitamins or a caffeinated drink can reduce tiredness, while sleeping tablets will increase it.
Note that, currently, players cannot pass out from lack of sleep.
Drowsy
"Could do with a lie-down."

File:Moodle unhappy.png Unhappy

A character may become unhappy if subjected to prolonged boredom, stress, or consumes certain food items. Unhappiness makes all timed actions take longer, from equipping weapons to transferring items between containers.
This moodle can be combated by reading certain items of literature, eating food that increases happiness - such as pop or chocolate, or by taking anti-depressants.
Once NPC survivors are re-implemented, talking to them can also help with unhappiness.

Zombified
"Sudden desire to eat people."

Removed/Future Moodles

File:Moodle angry.png Angry

In previous versions of Project Zomboid, the anger moodle pops up for both sides when NPC reject team requests made by a player or another NPC. Each level of the Anger moodle beyond Irritated progressively blocks interaction attitudes, culminating in open hostility with the risk of combat at the most intense stage.
Currently, this moodle is disabled due to there being no NPCs in the current game build, although it is expected to return when they're re-enabled.
Irritated
"A bit narked off"
No effects yet.
Annoyed
"Seriously bad mood."
Positive/friendly interactions disabled.
Angry
"Ball of rage."
Neutral interactions disabled.
Furious
"Spoiling for a fight."
Interacting with an NPC can lead to combat, with potentially lethal results.

File:Moodle hungover.png Hungover

This moodle used to indicate indicates that the player has been staying too long outside, after or during intoxication. The only solution was to stay indoors.
It is absent from the current version.
