I know that smoke masks scent, so a smoke bomb could be vital in a ninja themed character (on another note, what skill goes into making those?). Are there any other methods of masking scents? If there’s not I personally believe that something like "Plastic Bottle of Scent Cover could be useful. Even if it’s only aimed at specific creatures, like Zed Mask, Insect Mask, Mammal Mask, etc.

[quote=“youtoo, post:2, topic:2235”]you can craft zombie pheromones. its under misc.

They then start attacking other zombies 😃 Its fun getting a zombie brute to kill everything.
