I managed to get carpentry level 4 and now I’m rushing for 5. It’s just a shame I already mowed down the local motel so I can’t dismantle all the beds 😭
Find a generator for electricity/fridges. Look into Carpentry for "rain collectors".
Always carry water bottles and such, and fill them up at sinks, toilets, etc, everytime you are exploring.
duel wielding machetes does nothing but it sure does make me feel like a badass
brutal handiwork 🥹
did you use vhs tapes yet
i wish i had that mod
does the save not let you add it
no i just mean in an immediate sense
I did not but idk how worth it it is when my electricity is probably gonna run out soon 😭
I already read the carpentry volume stuff for an 8x multiplier and I’m getting 60 EXP per pew in this chapel I found
Now my next concern is how to get another axe when my axe breaks…
it’s worth it
do books give you xp for that skill or just multiply xp you receive for doing that skill?
multiply
Where can I get hand axes? I understand that regular axes have the best spawn chance in fire departments but I already looted my nearest one
carpentry stores spawn them too i think
and if not hand axes then pickaxes
Good to know!
does the multiplier last forever or does it go down over time?
machetes and pickaxes work when cutting trees
forever 
Forever but they only apply to certain levels I’m pretty sure?
yeah they go by 2 levels
ah right so higher the skill less the multiplier?
until you get to vol 5
When you read volume 1 of a skill book you get a multiplier for levels 1-2 and nothing else
Volume 2, levels 3-4
So on and so forth until volume 5 that pertains to levels 9 and 10
ah ok, thanks
You can’t read ahead so you need to read the earliest book you can, attain the 2 skill levels they relate to, THEN you can read the other book
ok
Hold on what exactly is a carpentry store and where do I find them??
axes spawn rarely in industrial warehouses and such (and fire stations)
Hand axes are usually survivor house weapons
want me to send locations for you
also a carp store is a store that has carpentry stuff
remove one and see
good point
Yo guys found glitch that makes u hit faster twice but I can’t post it bc my English is so bad 😭✌️ should i post it
no
i know it
dont post it
it was worth staying up to midnight
look i fought all day to secure that area it was perfectly safe
just need to drive back and sleep
9 months, 18 days, finally my own trailer
Is their any word on when the legacy builds (b40 specifically) will return?
How much storage do the portable shelves have?
and is it good for storage in a base or is there something better?
What portable shelves?
For that resource you'll be best served to build a crate
Shelves are for more aesthetic purposes
they're the best raw storage option throughout all stages
this is due to the fact that you can stack 3 in one tile
Yeah typically you'd use wood crates or military crates, pretty sure wood crates do have more storage capacity if I recall
I never pay attention to storage capacity unfortunately.
military crates arent take-able or buildable without mods in b41
The green one's?
yeah
I remember picking them up in vanilla I think before, then again I've been playing modded for the past 750+ hours or so & The other hours are in vanilla.
could a pickaxe?
Honestly I ain't too sure, I don't believe so but could try it out.
they can't unfortunately, have to find a sledgehmmer
Yeah thought so, good luck! Kentucky's residence threw every sledgehammer into the infinite sea.
Aka it's rare as hell
Like very rare.
hiii, if anyone wants to play a coop game on the 41.78.19 version, you can send me an MD with no problem
is it possible to move a door?
This is where we increase our carpentry level.
Make nicer doors so the dubious creatures can break it later.
im trying too but i can't find books so its taking a while
Actually lemme double check if you can pick up doors.
I don't think so but I'ma make sure
Yeah nah you can't.
:/
yo anyone knows why i cant make a text on loking for a group its sayng i dont got acces???
Where did you spawn anyways?
Rosewood
You know where the book store is?
nope
I can show you the location of one hold on, lemme just grab a pic for you.
theres a place i haven't been to yet, might be there, but theres a huge horde there so i've avoided it for now
is it on the street with all the shops in a row
Around the main road you take to leave rosewood, to the left you'll see some businesses, eventually you'll find a store with a sign that says booknaked or something
Mhm
yeah theres a horde of like 20-30 there so i'll have to either wait or lure them
Other place you can find books is the school which is to the right of rosewood, giant somewhat fenced off building but is typically full of zeds.
Either or as you wish to deal with them.
yeah it is
managed to get in to the book shop had all except vol 4
Good stuff then, the school is another good spot for books but as I said before is riddled with dubious creatures.
Good for if you want early game backpack though, considering the lockers spawn with em sometimes specifically the school bag
But looking in houses can give you a better Pack vs the school.
I remember finding a big hiking bag before in a house, good storage.
Guys, does finding bugs and rep them has any reward?
To my knowledge no, besides making the game a better place.
lmao obvsly, not
except to being pride of helping the whole commu to have a better game ( altough finding bugs for the b41 isnt helpful as they work on the 42 now )
is hotwiring a car something only burglars can do or can i learn to do it?
every char could learn it afaik
need elect 1 and mech 2 iirc
are you able to clear things in grass, like small rocks and twigs? (they don't show as something i can pick up)
I don't think so no.
Anyone know how to fix errors with foraging? I’ve got some tile mods and I think it’s screwing with the tiles around EVERYWHERE
I can forage on the road fine but when I get to vegetation it says there’s nothing there
Yes, and no
This mod can fix forage zones in B41, but the problem you face is that it needs to be layered pre-start on the maps, doesn't work retroactively
As in ForageZ map needs to be on top of everything else, but it's not mod load order, needs to be set as the map above everything else when you setup the game
Ohp wait scratch that may have been changed now looking at the description
Keep in mind some modded maps have forage zones set to them by the author, this may overwrite it IIRC. Not sure the tiles besides trash piles effect foraging on it's own
Seems you'll need to do some testing
Bleh alright
Thank you! It was working fine before a couple error notifiers showed up and now it’s kinda just busted lol
I’ll see if this helps
man, the one day I wanted to go get some stuff done outside of my base
Whatrr
That's crazy
Is that vanilla?
Nah, but none of my mods affect the weather as far as I'm aware
so the fog itself is
can you not add Dog food to a stew
It's not becoming a savage it's trying new tastes
its not becoming a savage, just having different taste than yours :v
and after the apocalypse : everything change to : thats how i survive, end
The larp is crazy
god damn
what did you put in it?
do i need the explosives magazine if i'm an engineer
There's no bomb magazines in B41 I'm afraid
But you wouldn't need them as engi yes
That's not how that works
You’d know wouldn’t you
oh
ok but the 20 units mentioned in the wiki means 20 items or 20 what?
SPOTTED THE 4CHANNER
20 units of gunpowder
nvm it says "2.0 full items"
Are you talking about the pipe bomb?
yeah
any bombs besides the molotov is not worth it imo
molotov is the cheapest and most reliable
the molotvs suck
you gotta wait a long time until the zombies die
they dont suck but if youre hellbent on clearing one area theyre great
Pipebomb are fine
well yeah they're good if you're desperate and broke
but otherwise bombs are superior
If you dont like 223. or whatever just recycle all of those
Anyway wsp chat i[m on r6 rn
my main rifle uses 223
because it's the one i found the most of
i have a mod for extra guns
firearms b41 revamped
👍
how does zomboid spawning work? if i clear an area, can zombies spawn there again? does it only work for when you've cleared a building?
For b41, zombies spawn inside buildings once you look into them.
To prevent zombie respawn in a chunk or cell you need to completely wall off every corner of the chunks
using log walls or walls
so if i clear a street/neighbourhood, they can just respawn when i leave that area?
mhm
The system, known as the "BS mechanic" or building spawn mechanic, can be both unfair and illogical. So let me learn you how it works.
Let's Each break this bs mechanic down. Each building in the game has a chance to spawn zombies once a player interacts with it beyond a certain threshold, which we also explain.
We also discuss how this mechan...
this video details some stuff
ty
An area that's completely sealed off can't have zeds respawn in it, otherwise it's fair game
Worth noting default respawn is 3 days so you have to not be in the cell for that amount of time for zeds to respawn
Heya. Says "Mod godzserverb41 not installed" so can't join and it doesnt auto install it. Could any1 help me out?
could join wo issues yesterday
when sleeping in a car, where do you put the pillow to improve sleep quality?
huh
just equip it
I worked it out. Ty
I forgot that existed tbh, yeah it improves sleep quality in vehicles if I recall.
I am pretty sure pillow dont do that in B41 yet
I think it does affect it, you'd probably still wake up with neck pain but if I remember having a pillow in your inventory reduces that risk a bit.
Since if I remember pillows affect the comfort modifier for B41
I have an idea for carrying a lot more loot/supplies in a car just not sure it'll work.
So in a car, you can put any item, of any weight into a car seat (atleast i think), so if i take a few crates/boxes, can i not fill them with loot and then put those boxes into the car on each seat and not have to worry about storage in the boot or trailer, etc...
Can't pick up crates with loot inside it, nor utilize them in seats unfortunately.
I personally never could anyways I doubt it's possible. You can only pick empty crates up and store em in your vehicle but empty, & can't be filled.

My inner loot goblin self would LOVED something like that though.
yeah... it doesn't work, unless theres a storage option you can pick up
with items inside
No real point honestly unless you wanna be organized.
its just more quantity than anything
Stuffing a backpack with items inside it weighs more vs just throwing it in the trunk without the backpack.
Trunk or storage, either or.
But as I said before it's much more organizing that way, I do the same myself. I'd stuff tool boxes with tools & backpacks or duffle bags with guns, food or medicine depending.
Then stuff it in the trunk, I typically use a mod that lets me view items in the bag while it's in the trunk/Storage.
Lemme double check which one it is.
'Nested containers' is the mod I use.
Useful for when you wanna stuff a bag in a trunk or storage and not have to take it out just to look inside to check the contents.
are you able to add new mods to a save?
Some yes.
can someone help me with the mods
Depending on the mod, some can be added into an already existing save and some can't & need a new save to load in or function.
i cant find anyone 🙁
would u like to play or nah?
Are there any b41 servers?
idk :I
would u be down to play?
Anyone down to play?
i am
dm
whats a good free server host so i can play modded PZ with friends
Doses anyone have any tips my Rv broke down completely and now I’m stuck with atleast 100 zombies surrounding it
😭
walk
pray
You'll have to run, walk to avoid getting tired.
The main thing is to hide from the zombies and go where there aren't any.
Then they'll come back and kill them all! =)
If you're playing single-player, you can create another character with a full set of powers and abilities for combat.
Switch to them and clear the area.
I may have accidently doomed my run...
I struggle a lot in the first few days with being overwhelmed in my starter area so set the starting population to 0.5x, and just so I wasn't cheesing the game too much i set the peak population of undead to 3x or 4x.
23 days in and theres hundreds, everywhere.
How doomed am I?
a lot but doable if you are skilled enough :v
I usually try talking my way out of a conflict with a hoard of zombies like that. So far it hasn't worked, but you might have more luck than I have trying to reason with them.
project zomboid charisma build goes hard just keep trying
