SCUM Easy AdminHow tough puppets are
Multiplier on every puppet’s health.
scum.PuppetHealthMultiplier=1.000000
What does this setting do?
Multiplies the health of all puppets. At 1.0 the game value applies, at 2.0 a puppet takes twice the punishment, at 0.5 it drops after half the lead. This is the setting with the most direct effect on ammo consumption: raise it and ammunition becomes scarce overnight, while melee stops being worth the risk.
Which value suits my server?
0.7 to 1.0 — newcomers get by with little ammunition.
1.0. Go to 1.25 if you want ammo to feel tighter.
1.5 to 2.0, but only alongside more generous loot.
What to watch out for
The multiplier changes total health, not hit zones. A clean headshot kills even at 3.0 — this setting mostly punishes players who aim poorly.
Tougher puppets and higher puppet damage amplify each other. Change one of the two at a time and live with it for a week.
