Health, damage and recovery

Players have tracked health.

R.E.P.O. tracks how alive your crew and the monsters are: the game keeps health for players and for monsters, shows it in its own interface, and has a pack you can carry to recover.

What the game establishes

Players have tracked health. (checked against the game's own files)
Monsters have tracked health as well. (checked against the game's own files)
Health is shown in its own interface. (checked against the game's own files)
Recovery uses a carried health pack. (checked against the game's own files)
The health pack carries an amount it heals, a particle for a rejected use, a light of its own, and separate sounds for using it and for refusing to. (checked against the game's own files)
A hard fall throws particles of its own, and being hurt draws a vignette over the view. (checked against the game's own files)
Damage is named by source as well: a hatch, a death pit, a fall and a vacuum each have a collider of their own. (checked against the game's own files)

In play

Players have health of their own, so what hurts you is a value rather than a binary state.

Monsters have health too, which is why fighting one is a contest of values rather than an all-or-nothing hit.

Recovery is equipment: a health pack exists as a carried item, so patching someone up depends on what the crew brought with them.

Using the pack is not a single number. It carries the amount it heals, a light and a sound for being used, and its own particles and sound for a use that is refused, which is why a pack that will not go is shown rather than only failing.

What this entry does not tell you: how much health anyone has, how much damage anything does, or how much a pack restores. We have not verified those numbers, so we do not print them.
