Bleeding ChanceDefinition The Bleeding Chance is the probability that a melee hit in DayZ will cause a bleeding wound when the target has no armor. It is determined by the weapon’s bloodDamage value and mapped through a predefined interpolation curve from the game’s BleedChanceData.c. Formula Bleeding Chance (linear interpolation): Where • = bloodDamage of the melee attack • = predefined points from the DayZ config: (0, 0.0), (10, 0.05), (20, 0.15), (30, 0.234), (40, 0.312), (50, 0.390), (60, 0.468), (70, 0.546), (80, 0.624), (90, 0.702), (100, 1.0) The function linearly interpolates between the two nearest points in the table. If x is below 0, the chance is 0%. If x is above 100, the chance is capped at 100%. Explanation This system ensures that low-damage melee hits have a very small chance to cause bleeding, while high-damage melee attacks (close to bloodDamage = 100) almost always cause bleeding.
