Catching a cold happens too early and too often

It’s raining and Vlad just went to take the bus and caught a cold, it happened also earlier to two other Zois of the same household just a few hours ago.
That’s unrealistic and shouldn’t happen that frequently.

Did you set the city health settings high?

This keeps happening to me in the Cahaya save, it’s true that it’s winter, but there are 28/30 degrees :grinning_face: Then I remembered that I had left the default settings, now I’ve changed them, let’s see if it decreases.

I’ve read somewhere it happens when a Zoi is one hour in the rain, but that wasn’t the case.

My zois constantly have colds now. Also, when they use the medicine they eat the whole lot and throw the box in the bin. Before it was more realistic as they would take a dose and put the rest in their bag.

This really shouldn’t happen that frequently and when the city settings are on max health.
It’s already laughable in a tv drama when the protagonists catch a cold after getting hit by 3 raindrops. This is just annoying and nowhere near realistic. They even wear their winter outfits.

It would help if the zois wouldn’t keep going out in the rain. Whether it’s going outside to do yoga or vacuum the garden, they never want to stay inside when it’s raining. Also, they’re still not putting on a rain coat or acknowledging the rain in any way.

I have turned autonomy off and they just went from their home to the club and got sick again -.-

My Zoi caught a cold even though he was indoors all day baking. Puzzling.

His roommate went off to her job as a reporter, but when she came home she was healthy. No signs of sickness that day or the next so I’d expect she didn’t pass on anything to him (if that exists in the game).

Hi everyone (@here),

We’ve adjusted the conditions for catching a cold when being outside in the rain without an umbrella with the v0.6.0 update.

Previously, Zois could catch a cold after 1 hour in the rain. This has now been extended to 6 hours, making colds much less frequent in normal gameplay.

Thank you all for your feedback!
