[verbal pelican]

you got two ways of leveling it from level 0

[turbid otter]

i would say strenght is easier

[tall hazel]

Welding is stupidly expensive

[verbal pelican]

one is inconsistent and the other one requires a sledge

[vagrant bramble]

They're new players and i've been through the normal grind a gorillion times, gotta go monke

[bitter aurora]

guiding noobs through the game is always fun

[vagrant bramble]

nope, let em' have it

[tall hazel]

Get yourself a well and some seed packets, plus a carton of nails and you'll never have to worry about them ogling you ever again

[turbid otter]

nah leave them to suffer

[bitter aurora]

they're like freaking out and hiding in the corner

[turbid otter]

while u have fun

[vagrant bramble]

it's more about being close enough that they can visit lol

[cloud berry]

is thier a mod to change b42 shooting to b41?

[tall hazel]

Hm

You wanna build a house or

Get one?

Birch is good if you need food

Organic if you need wood and all, acidic is for when you want herbs

[vagrant bramble]

i've got the full birch forest & mixed birch as the main options

[heavy ember]

are there comfrey seed packet in vanilla?

also do they spawn in farm store if so?

[tall hazel]

Full birch is often good

[verbal pelican]

ngl snow is actually beneficial for me

cuz my water went out in the first 5 hours

[tall hazel]

Just forage them

[verbal pelican]

i had to drink from toilets that had max 1 liter

[heavy ember]

yeah but can I get seed from foraging?

maybe collecting the seeds from the comfrey or smth

[little garden]

yes

[tall hazel]

Yes you can lol

I despise city life it's just loot loot and organize your things

[heavy ember]

okay thank guys

[tall hazel]

Occasionally find an interesting location and walk around it

[heavy ember]

take a farm house far away

[tall hazel]

I know

[heavy ember]

you wont regret it lol

[tall hazel]

I've taken to the suburban outskirts

[hearty hollow]

Honestly, I still find this one of the funniest shots of all the simpsons episodes 🤣

[vagrant bramble]

the thing boggling me is the accessibility, this area in red is entirely mixed birch and it's both the closest to a coast/road(which means i can clean towards it in my lifetime for a car path for em') and it also has two natural stone passages to cross to the other side

[tall hazel]

Farmstead with a pre-built barn just takes all the fun away from spending 24 irl hours building a cowbarn and fences

[verbal pelican]

i will die

i ate a burnt lettuce

[wanton condor]

Why there no splash sound b42.18?

[verbal pelican]

wont i?

this is bullshit

i ate a burnt lettuce irl it didnt fucking kil lme

[heavy ember]

meh tbh the already existing a pretty cool looking

[little garden]

only hurts , may not kill

but can debug if needed

[heavy ember]

And the constructions doesnt really look good imo

def need a rework of building

[verbal pelican]

if queasy it will kill i think

[heavy ember]

nah thats wasnt a burnt lettuc dude

[tall hazel]

Oh

[little garden]

weak stomach?

[verbal pelican]

it was a burnt cabbage

[verbal pelican]

yes

[heavy ember]

cooked

[verbal pelican]

burnt

[glad flicker]

that moment when carbon is toxic...

[tall hazel]

In that case mxied rich, I'm sure the full birch which yields more resources is just a walk away anyhow

[little garden]

"may" kill, kjeepp your health up with well fed bonus

[heavy ember]

nah YOU are cooked

[noble shore]

I really want a Big Lez show mod, where all the zombies are replaced with choomahs

[heavy ember]

i dont remembe if its fatal

[verbal pelican]

deep fried

[heavy ember]

weak stomach is free point if you eat like a normal person

[copper stratus]

Do you have weak stomach

If so then likely 💀

[little garden]

"free points" 🙂

[wooden turtle]

God damn update and 0 updated mods. I cant use any mod for nomad run. Nothing works

[heavy ember]

put your character in a locker or inside and just come back tbh

[copper stratus]

Indeed

I played vanilla for years. Nomad and rv gave me new love for the game

[little garden]

not half as poinsous as it was in b41

[little garden]

play.17 until they are?

[heavy ember]

what happens if you drink animal blood?

[wicked galleon]

where can i find prescription monocles?

[wooden turtle]

I didnt play for half a year. All mods are broken now. Nothing is updated

[verbal pelican]

my character still has final stage depression

[mighty harbor]

nothing

[heavy ember]

[mighty harbor]

yes

[heavy ember]

I thought you would get sick

[verbal pelican]

any way to unlock a door

[heavy ember]

hit the door

with a long blunt weapon iirc

[verbal pelican]

without destroying it

[verbal pelican]

do KI5 car mods work after new update?

[wooden turtle]

I have my armored truck save game. Last played 7 months ago....

[verbal pelican]

yes

[heavy ember]

mad scientist z

[winter minnow]

it is free unless the food is going rotten inside your mouth

[mighty harbor]

only with key or mods

[broken storm]

dang

[heavy ember]

pry open crowbar mod is a must

[verbal pelican]

i dont find a reason why they wouldnt

basic mods like that work

complex that add gameplay features dont

[wicked galleon]

huh

[heavy ember]

Its a type of infected

spawns very rarely I think or in labs

[wicked galleon]

yeah how would i really find that

labs specifically, im not sure what rooms or buildings are classified as labs

or have the lab tag

[heavy ember]

go on B42map.com

and search lab

[mighty harbor]

good luck searching non-ground rooms

which all of the labs are

[heavy ember]

theres one near louisville

[wicked galleon]

nnnnnevermind literally impossible to find

[heavy ember]

maybe spawn it with debug

if its really impossible

[verbal pelican]

peak

[wicked galleon]

both of the events are only "1 per save"

meaning its somewhere within the entire map

[heavy ember]

i never knew that

[halcyon orbit]

random question for people here. So I have the rain collectors and rain barrels and from what I can see, the rain collectors from level 3 carpentry are filling up faster than the barrels. Is that supposed to be the case?

[heavy ember]

its kinda cool but annoying at the same time

[wicked galleon]

the zombie types dont mention spawn chances or rarities or building specifics

[hallow hare]

why cant I join to create my vc?

im locked out

[wicked galleon]

so i have no idea how to verify where zeds spawn consistently

[little garden]

500 mad scientists

[wicked galleon]

debug is neat

[heavy ember]

the zombies type in the secret lab is listed as SecretLab

[shadow sky]

https://discord.com/channels/136501320340209664/1495531509568901311

[little garden]

objects in the b42 map, gives spawns zones for zeds

[hallow hare]

got it already but thanks

[verbal pelican]

drip

[glad flicker]

that is all you need to do

[little garden]

that red outline is showing the secret lab zed spawn

[mild furnace]

FUCK I LOVE grinding mechanics

its just so fulfilling

[wicked galleon]

objects?

[mild furnace]

POIs

[wicked galleon]

oh i see

[mild furnace]

points of interest

[mild furnace]

stuff. places.

[wicked galleon]

thats not the same

lmfao

[mild furnace]

w/e

[wicked galleon]

its a POI but an object seems to be more specific

[mild furnace]

you understand

OOI

[glad flicker]

its a grid

like farmland

[little garden]

blue is cars Red is zombie zones

[glad flicker]

so it has a center...

[sour flare]

How to survive till winter 😭

[mild furnace]

i want to make a mp server where all we do is grind mechanics

just a never ending car lot

uninstall radio. install radio.

uninstall battery. install battery

[little garden]

start in winter helps 🙂

[mild furnace]

uninstall muffler. install muffler

[glad flicker]

thats easy with debug you can spawn cars

[wicked galleon]

im trying to figure out like

where in the wiki it ties the information together

from these monocles onto the madscientist zed type

cause it doesnt seem to make the connection anywhere outright

[mild furnace]

uninstall window. uninstall door. install door. install window.

[hollow trail]

get good just kidding

[glad flicker]

RMB to spawn cars Kyle

[mild furnace]

uninstall tire. uninstall brake. uninstall suspension. install suspension. install brake. install tire.

i LOVE it

i could do it ALL DAY

[wicked galleon]

im unfamiliar with the object tool and how to use the legends

[mild furnace]

wait--i did

[wicked galleon]

wait wiat

nvm it just requires zooming in a specific amount

[little garden]

yeah slightly annoying

[verbal pelican]

sucesfully robbed the police station

whats with the bed tho

yall know if you can fix that?

[wicked galleon]

how'd you find the tags for the zed spawns?

like secretBase spawns zeds within that area, is there a wikipage that lists all the secretBase zed types

[glad flicker]

unlikely

search for scientist

[hearty hollow]

One does not rob a police station. One just simply 'lets all the stuff inside free of their confinement'

[wooden turtle]

Is there any way to select specific build 42 version on steam?

[glad flicker]

shrugs

skull last one yes

[little garden]

https://discord.com/channels/136501320340209664/473467044050894858 maybe a better place to ask whats in the wiki 🙂

[wooden turtle]

Not just last one or the one before it

[glad flicker]

no

[solar ermine]

as of right now no

[wooden turtle]

😭😭

[shell meteor]

how do we spawn on the other locations on mp?

im a dumby

[wooden turtle]

I want my armored truck nomad run back 😭

[solar ermine]

believe me i was in the same boat as you a while ago

[hollow trail]

get b42

[wicked galleon]

i thought you would know of this, since it's just asking what zed types are listed where
just to confirm that the madscientist zed outfit is actually under the secretBase zombie type lmao

[hollow trail]

more spawns

[glad flicker]

those playing with debug have you messed with the scenarios on the main menu?

[solar ermine]

i lost my year-long B42.12.3 save because of them removing the version

[shell meteor]

its vanilla now

[wicked galleon]

it also claims to not be the place for "general questions," however vague

[glad flicker]

well you shoulda kept a copy of it

[shell meteor]

but when i go to start and make a new char it doesnt show anything

[hollow trail]

wym

[jolly ginkgo]

only in sandbox

[little garden]

oh sry i was just showing that as a zone thing, did not mean to suggest that madscientist spanwed there

[wooden turtle]

Any info when 42 gets to ne standard version?

[shell meteor]

is it because i used apocalypse settings for server creation?

[wicked galleon]

since folks seemed so sure of it, i thought this wouldn't be a bad ask

[glad flicker]

no skull no-one knows

[solar ermine]

eventually™

[hollow trail]

maybe

[wicked galleon]

brahther

fair enough

[glad flicker]

nor they going to say either

[river tide]

@gilded gate zobacz dm

[glad flicker]

because then that forces them onto a specific timeline to have to release it.

[glad flicker]

why the hell you randomly ping'n someone?

[wicked galleon]

how'd you conclude that the madscientist zed type spawns near labs?

[mighty harbor]

more creeps in voice

[glad flicker]

well they havent even talked in ages why Im wondering, like they arent even in the recent user list...

[winter minnow]

the level 3 one has less capacity. They're same speed

[wicked galleon]

yeah they both take on the same rain factor, except one has a higher capacity, resulting in a slower fill

[shadow sky]

you can make spawnpoints.lua files for every different region you want to spawn in and place them in Zomboid/Server/

Spawns are usually in the userfolder Zomboid/Server/<servername>_spawnregions.lua and with the different spawnpoints.lua you can make your own with the coordinates.

the spawnregions.lua file lists the options that will show up for clients

[bitter bramble]

This is a potential bug, actually. They seem to fill much slower. albertspammy tested this, I think.

[little garden]

use a mod all the vanilla waya are broke in some way

[shell meteor]

ok thanks yall

[wicked galleon]

do they not operate with the same rain factor?

[halcyon orbit]

I did some counting and from my one test the barrel filled 20% slower.

[wicked galleon]

oh that's very strange.

[glad flicker]

round vs square?

[winter minnow]

Huh that's odd

[halcyon orbit]

don't take my word for it though, I only did one trial.

and I'm human I could've made a mistake.

[verbal pelican]

i look like a fucking boss (im a cowardly security guard)

[winter minnow]

I get that zomboid has some very interesting mechanic but ...

[mild furnace]

how many buckles do i need for a full suit of armor?

[mighty harbor]

nope, collectors fill up faster

[wicked galleon]

in a way they could be right

[mighty harbor]

same with water troughs

[winter minnow]

Game design god verboten it

[bitter bramble]

They’re both called collectors, aren’t they? Which do you mean?

[wicked galleon]

for pz's mechanics, a "round" barrel could have a slightly lower rain factor to mimic the difference

[glad flicker]

also square ones in my testing fill up faster then the bigger round ones because Im guessing it has more surface area to catch rain

[mighty harbor]

ah, sorry 😄 the box one fills up faster then the barrel

[glad flicker]

yeah it should

[vocal magnet]

this could easily be solveed by extending a tarp over the barrel opening

making a net to catch water

[wicked galleon]

yeah, to what extent
the weird part is why and if its intentional

[glad flicker]

that would prob look too Rust like

[little garden]

full suit at 2 for each pieece? 20 + i guesS?

[winter minnow]

Game design aaa why must we suffer this realism

[bitter bramble]

That would be a ridiculously precise thing to factor in and I doubt TIS did that. But I could be wrong!

[mighty harbor]

i'll check

[wicked galleon]

it is not entirely unreasonable

[glad flicker]

Not really... its common sense

[wicked galleon]

tin cans and small cups and glasses have a rain factor of 0.5 to 0.7

[glad flicker]

^

[wicked galleon]

syc... it's not exactly "common sense" in the world of game design
pz devs choose when they want to use "common sense" and when they dont

its very particular

[bitter bramble]

Rain factor determining fill rate?

[vocal magnet]

yet our survivor cant open up their mouth and look up to the sky as it rains to quench their thirst

[winter minnow]

So when can I tape a flashlight to my helmet

[wicked galleon]

i think so

[glad flicker]

true but still it is common sense. a square is bigger then a circle... of the same width/diameter

[winter minnow]

That would be logical

[bitter bramble]

It’s tainted! You would die!

[wicked galleon]

it would be tainted!

[vocal magnet]

Drops of water!

[glad flicker]

like ALOT bigger

[vocal magnet]

how weak is our immune system to die from a tiny amount of tainted water

[cloud ore]

https://klipy.com/gifs/whhyyyy-vanish--k01KRH85JZJPGD0NYHTWE4BA0DH

[wicked galleon]

hmmm

[vocal magnet]

wouldn't tainted water from the sky just be full of dust

[bitter bramble]

Okay. Do the metal troughs have a different fill factor than a rain collector or wooden trough?

[winter minnow]

Why is there fish in the pool

[wicked galleon]

i think it would be really strange balance wise

to make barrels worse at catching rain but better at storing it

generally for the sake of balance they skirt around many common sense things

[glad flicker]

that I dont know I didnt test but I just googled area of 1m wide circle vs a square we talking almost double the surface area a sq has over a circle.

[sour pine]

what are your exercise routines to increasing fitness for your characters?

[wicked galleon]

first, i get 4 full packs of painkillers

[glad flicker]

thats a huge difference

[little garden]

drugs

[vocal magnet]

max fatigued, exercise till i cant no more, than read a bit. sleep

[hollow trail]

I just looted the fire station in rosewood, i also got a car what should i do now?

[wicked galleon]

then i do pushups for about 20 hours a day the first day

then i sleep and mix in painkillers and pushups for the second and third day

[winter minnow]

Go literally anywhere you want

[sour pine]

So you can still gain exp while fatigued I think the wiki misworded that

[winter minnow]

Hog Wallow resort maybe

[wicked galleon]

and then by the time its the 4th day, allllll the muscle strain goes away even while you're still doing pushups

[vocal magnet]

while fatigued you cant get endurance back to dish out more exercises

[winter minnow]

Or be like me and get your 6th point in Fitness by February

[bitter bramble]

That’s neat; kind of an optical illusion but more about just being bad at estimating area. Anyway, I’ll still be surprised if that’s the reason. It’d be a good one, though.

It makes me wonder why not make the bigger ones square too?

[wicked galleon]

actually, how does rain factor work?

[winter minnow]

True... A cube will have more capacity than a barrel of the same height

[cursive tiger]

Would be cool if someone made a mod that makes tainted water like zobi infection where its a %chance whether you die or shit yer noggin oute and have hunger/weight loss

[thorny quiver]

The world is your oyster, but you can look at gathering food for long term, finding magazines and books, weapons, tools

[wicked galleon]

it works good enough to simulate the real life aspects

[winter minnow]

Why would our character make a barrel??

[wicked galleon]

as i carry around 6-8 tin cans and a bucket for when it rains

[thorny quiver]

Get plank barricades up

[olive needle]

is there a gun cleaning kit mod or nah

[glad flicker]

only thing I can think of cuz like I said I put a barrel out, and a square out next to each other and then summoned a hurricane storm for speed and the square one filled up to 400 way faster then the barrel did

[hollow trail]

what city would be best to loot tho

[glad flicker]

ofc the barrel holds more but...

[mortal pollen]

yeah there is one but it doesn't support mp

[sour pine]

guess it's time to read up on all these books for the next few days

[cloud ore]

time to get food poisoning from that old plastic bottle i fished outta dumpster

[olive needle]

im alright w that

[thorny quiver]

Start with the points of interest in rosewood and then move on from there depending on what you missing

[wicked galleon]

okay, this might get into the history of why humans used barrels in the first place

[cloud ore]

because i forgot to wash it

[olive needle]

im soloing rn

[hollow trail]

alright

[winter minnow]

Please do tell

[glad flicker]

round rolls easier... obviously

[mortal pollen]

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3164282444 i think it has some bugs it gave me errors

[wicked galleon]

i think the reason was transportation, and maybe durability

[mortal pollen]

but thats what i used

[cursive tiger]

Need more oregon trail diseases

[wicked galleon]

but that doesnt really translate to pz that well

[glad flicker]

also they seal easier

[hollow trail]

wait even the prison?

[thorny quiver]

If you absolutely want to go for a drive, you can look at south muldraugh vhs store and book shop

[glad flicker]

the shrinking of the metal bands is more equal on a barrel then a crate

[thorny quiver]

Skip prison

[hollow trail]

alr

[olive needle]

oh , is it not working after 42.18 update?

[mortal pollen]

didnt try it yet for 42.18

[glad flicker]

I was just watching a old film >> to video conversion on old techniques in crafting and how to make barrels was interesting

[winter minnow]

Dylan why do barrels fill slower than crates

[olive needle]

bet, ill try it

thankyou man

[wicked galleon]

hiya, how could i figure out what zombie spawn types exist for specific spawn locations, like "fancy" and "madscientist" zombie types?

or figure out what zombie types exist for "secretBase"

[mighty harbor]

did a quick test on rainwater collection. i had all containers at zero, these are the stats after a brief heavy rain:
small trough: 5,710ml
large trough: 5,710ml
metal trough: 5,710ml
amphora: 4,150ml
rain collector crate: 4,150ml
rain collector barrel: 2,600ml

[bitter bramble]

BTW, I looked it up and apparently a circle with diameter X will have 78.5% of the area of a square with side length X.

So the barrel should fill to 78.5L when the square collector gets to 100L.

[wicked galleon]

that seems rather bad

[bitter bramble]

The barrel is way too low.

[glad flicker]

I just did the math to make sure

[little garden]

yeah similar to what i got when i did it

[verbal pelican]

i actually fuclking love house alarms man

[fiery needle]

hmm

[verbal pelican]

if an alarm didnt go off i would have to fight thourhg 200 sprinters jsut to get to a gunshop

[wicked galleon]

the percentage error seems really large given the difference between what syc brought up and what shows up here

[fiery needle]

Alarm is like a 30/70 of it being good in situations

[little garden]

someone figurede it out i gues https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3725305817

[glad flicker]

oh if its accurate in game dont ask me I just know which was faster cuz I tested it was baked one day and went hmmm I wonder if a barrel and square fill up the same...

[bitter bramble]

That’s bananas. What is the length there, 1?

[wicked galleon]

im imagining its just surface area

hold on a sec....

lemme double check

[glad flicker]

yeah sorry I typo'd cuz its PI * R(squared)

[wicked galleon]

yea

[bitter bramble]

Circle A= pi x r(squared)
Square A = L x W

[wicked galleon]

im getting the same result as speech

78.5%

which means the barrel is filling up wayyy slower than it should be

[glad flicker]

but yeah a 1 meter wide diameter vs a 1meter length square its as they said 0.78

so roughly 25% off

[mighty harbor]

i just checked in debug and got the numbers as stated above. don't know anymore than that

[wicked galleon]

yeah something seems definitely wrong with the barrel

if the rain factor was changed to imitate the real life differences, it was tuned too hard downward

[glad flicker]

the barrel or the amphora?

[bitter bramble]

So, no, they don’t take opening area into account. That metal trough would be tops if so.

[mighty harbor]

the double-wide troughs collect at the same rate as single tile collectors

so nothing makes sense here really

[bitter bramble]

https://tenor.com/view/simple-math-gif-25174149

[glad flicker]

could be related to stuff side by side and piping?

[wicked galleon]

the barrel
apparently the amphora filled at the same rate as the square raincatcher, which means they definitely forgot about it if they had it in mind anyway

[mighty harbor]

happy to test again with different setup, still have it open

[bitter bramble]

All amphoras have a vacuum installed that sucks in more rain. They’re Dyson amphoras.

[glad flicker]

thats what I thought but I totally forgot to go back and check on it till this topic came up right now and I remembered again I forgot about it

[wicked galleon]

rough times for carpentry users

[wicked galleon]

lmao

[bitter bramble]

Holy crap I have to go tell my high school math teacher that I used math in real life.

Well, in a video game.

[glad flicker]

line them up in a diagonal pattern so there isnt maybe bleed over from one to another.

[bitter bramble]

Bleed over?

[mild furnace]

dude

do i really need tanned leather to make the plate armor?

[bitter bramble]

You know we’re not dealing with individual raindrops in the game, right?

[mild furnace]

like i gotta kill more pigs and shit?

[glad flicker]

yeah like 3 collectors side by side might be filling each other like how you pipe a sink below them?

[bitter bramble]

Guess so.

[rigid star]

Man sometimes I hate the combat system

[verbal pelican]

realistically how am i gonna use guns on sprinters

[mild furnace]

fuccccccc

[wicked galleon]

i have my doubts that pz would do that

howeverrrr

[copper ridge]

just quick question, im looking to play build 42 with friends and some mods, is it gonna be playable or nah bc i read up on lots of people not able to play after an update.

[rigid star]

Swung past a guy and thats the character gone

lol

[glad flicker]

just guessing here

[mild furnace]

im not doing it--no way

[wicked galleon]

there might be some fair ringing to it

since i know the plumbing system does exist

[mild furnace]

how many would i need to make the whole suit?

[verbal pelican]

depends on mods

[bitter bramble]

That is a guess supported by nothing, unfortunately. Best to go with Occam’s Razor.

[copper ridge]

ah okay @verbal pelican thank you sir.

[wicked galleon]

yeah rain barrel bugged!

[bitter bramble]

The simplest answer is probably the answer. They coded it cruddy.

[mild furnace]

this is absurd--Ludacris!

[verbal pelican]

mods compatible with mp usually have MP in their name or it is told in the description

[wicked galleon]

okay now how to figure out where to get a damn monocle

[glad flicker]

3 collectors above a sink all work together but they wont in a diagonal pattern...

[mild furnace]

https://tenor.com/view/right-here-ludacris-what's-your-fantasy-song-at-this-spot-at-this-place-gif-10189903412767825465

[mighty harbor]

small trough: 1,290ml
large trough: 1,290ml
metal trough: 1,290ml
amphora: 0,940ml
rain collector crate: 0,940ml
rain collector barrel: 0,590ml

tested again with space between the collectors

same ratios

[verbal pelican]

why is there a rain collector debate going on for an hour

[bitter bramble]

Don’t get me started on sinks. They’re all fucky too, now.

[glad flicker]

wait how big is a trogh?

[wicked galleon]

wait, small and large troughs collect the same amount?

[mighty harbor]

yep

nothing makes sense

[mild furnace]

waterwater in here

[bitter bramble]

An hour if you’re lucky.

[glad flicker]

I know speech its why I mentioned it shit is janky so never know...

[wicked galleon]

so how does it calculate the rain collection of a tin can ???

[mild furnace]

watergate

[vapid thicket]

my fellow gamers what hair cut yall recommend

[bitter bramble]

Duck tail

[honest patio]

Bald

[mighty harbor]

no idea, i just did a practical test. could plot down more water containers to compare

[little garden]

yeah the small trough getting the same as large one is a bit of a outlyer 😛

[glad flicker]

yeah thats def a sploit to use

[wicked galleon]

try placing some buckets down alongside

[copper ridge]

@verbal pelican Am i chilling if i play vanilla b42 with friends, is there to be expected problems>

[wicked galleon]

and place like

[little garden]

long briads

[wicked galleon]

5 tin cans as well

[bitter bramble]

Bukkits

idr how fast weather debug works

[bitter bramble]

And why don’t water dispenser bottles collect rain? Are we responsibly capping them every time? I doubt that.

[little garden]

fairly instalty

[verbal pelican]

there are some problems with zombie spawns

rarely a few zombies can spawn next to you

but that have been mostly turned down

[wicked galleon]

our character is very dedicated.

TIS needs to answer for all things rain-related!!

As a result of exploitable bugs with fillable containers, rain has been disabled for 42.19

[wicked galleon]

aight

[mighty harbor]

they fill up too quickly 😄

[glad flicker]

wait till you see the 'weather colors menu'

[wicked galleon]

that's fairly solid timing, alright

[glad flicker]

its fucking huge

[verbal pelican]

if i put a bottle of remoulade in an oven, will the water sterilize?

[hasty rose]

is there anything in this game that i can use as taget to practice instead of a zom?

[wicked galleon]

tin cans are my goat for nomadic travel

[sour pine]

I FOUND THE SECOND EVER BASEBALL BAT IN MULDRAUGH AFTER 1.5 MONTHS

a blessing

[wicked galleon]

so that checks out!

[bitter bramble]

What even is remoulade? I’ve never looked it up.

[verbal pelican]

me too

i think its like mustard or mayonaise

some weird american invention

[bitter bramble]

Multiplayer

[verbal pelican]

in poland we meat jelly they could never

[bitter bramble]

You meat jelly?

[wicked galleon]

how about the bucket?

[hasty rose]

other people lolololol

[quiet geyser]

I have no idea, but I imagine it to be similar to sauerkraut

[verbal pelican]

eat meat jelly

[bitter bramble]

But no, there aren’t any ‘practice dummies’ or whatever.

[mighty harbor]

small trough: 1,200ml
large trough: 1,200ml
metal trough: 1,200ml
amphora: 0,870ml
rain collector crate: 0,870ml
rain collector barrel: 0,540ml
bucket (metal): 1,100ml
bucket (carved): 1,100ml
bucket (large): 1,500ml

[hasty rose]

i appreciate you bud

[mighty harbor]

@wicked galleon

[wicked galleon]

that's kinda crazy that the bucket gets more than the trough.

[verbal pelican]

people will a glass bottle blow my house up if i put it in an oven in zombodi

[wicked galleon]

thank you for your service

[quiet geyser]

Do you all know the highest capacity container ingame? Out of all containers, including uncraftable ones

[bitter bramble]

Jiminy Cricket. Well, as long as I don’t accidentally go to Europe I should be okay.

[mighty harbor]

afaik

[spice harbor]

Are there any good servers that dont have sprinters?

[verbal pelican]

its literally bullshit glued together, tastes like shit

[wicked galleon]

the barrel got more than the crate, did you empty it?

[bitter bramble]

This enrages me

[quiet geyser]

They can have 200 capacity? never seen that before

[wicked galleon]

we demand answers!

[mighty harbor]

didnt add it correctly, did now

[ruby saddle]

wait

waaaaaait

I am alive

[wicked galleon]

ah alright

[frozen pivot]

is there a mod to produce propane or for like infinite propane? leveling up welding is basically impossible

[mighty harbor]

there are some spots on the map that have a lot of propane, go there if you want to grind the skill

[wicked galleon]

the all powerful bucket

[little garden]

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3676347667&searchtext=propane

[wicked galleon]

alright no idea what's going on with that

oh well

[verbal pelican]

new armory

[frozen pivot]

where exactly

[verbal pelican]

what am i even going to do with it on sprinters

[frozen pivot]

is this the post soviet weapons mod?

[rigid star]

Is it normal to find like 100 boxes of ammo in a gun store?

[verbal pelican]

like what is the use of guns on sprinters

yea and also marz firearms

[verbal pelican]

.

[frozen pivot]

alr alr

ye

i saw it on workshop and kinda wanna try it

looks sick

[verbal pelican]

guns of marz

atleast it works

lol

[wicked galleon]

you could hypothetically try using a car and firing out the window

[fiery onyx]

Yes

[wicked galleon]

it'd need some planning though

[mighty harbor]

god warehouses in LV are best, but check for "gasstorage" on the b42map search

[verbal pelican]

i am insanely fast tho

at least you could burn through some of them

[verbal pelican]

i got a trait mod that is very op

+15% sprint speed

and high sprint level

[bitter bramble]

What level are you and what craft are you focusing on?

[verbal pelican]

you can find the hours on wiki

[heavy ridge]

hey im in fixedAF server, what key do you use to chat?

[frozen pivot]

am doing basically everything

[rigid star]

12pm every day until day 8

[frozen pivot]

welding 2 i think

[hollow trail]

why day 8

[rigid star]

after that satellite goes bye bye

[hollow trail]

ohh okay

[rigid star]

no more tv, only with VHS tapes

[wicked galleon]

that's just when the TV network thing collapses

[bitter bramble]

Welding 2, it depends on what materials you have access to. Cut bars into halves, then quarters if you have steel or iron bars. Weld metal floors if you have more steel sheets.

[rigid star]

technically it goes to day 9 but on day 9 there is only Cooking at 6am

then it shuts down

[frozen pivot]

mhhh alr

[wicked galleon]

"Today we settle the debate for real. What's better, pancakes or waffles? Well, I'll tell ya!"

[mint ingot]

im sure after that you will only get the repeated triple N message

[bitter bramble]

At Welding 4, the best welding per propane use is to cut sheets into 4 small, then back into 1 big.

You can do car wrecks when you need metal parts but the XP ratio per use of propane is terrible.

[wicked galleon]

I've wanted to get into welding for a bit but I know propane is my problem

how exactly would you level from 1 to 3

[bitter bramble]

Propane is absolutely not a problem if you have the skill books and if you focus on the most efficient recipes.

[rigid star]

Damn the movie Dead Wrong gives you Reloading and Aiming xp lmao

[wicked galleon]

what recipes are efficient

[bitter bramble]

0-1 car wrecks
1-2 cut bars
2-4 bars or metal floors
4+ metal sheet to small metal sheets and back again

[mint ingot]

"oh he hit the target without missing once? i can do that"

[bitter bramble]

If you do that, you can definitely live off of map propane and bottles found in warehouses.

No mod needed.

[vagrant bramble]

Do you need mixtures to have certain %s of a liquid for their bonuses to apply or can i just drop 10ml of something into a liter of water

[wicked galleon]

aight, nice

[bitter bramble]

Now, having said that, I’ve never gotten Welding past 8 and I’ve never messed with it in a game mode with scarce resources. YMMV

[wicked galleon]

did anyone figure out tailoring efficiency

i wonder, are there actually any mods that let you have a working boat

[bitter bramble]

It’s something dumb like “bandanas forever”, even with the recent changes.

Dunno for sure though.

[wicked galleon]

nice

[winter minnow]

Moral of the story, motels suck dont base there

[bleak dust]

basically until 7

[bitter bramble]

Quick, record my game, my character just died from boredom.

[bleak dust]

its bad dude lol

[bitter bramble]

I imagine that it’s even worse at base XP.

[wicked galleon]

still sounds like a materials slog too

[bitter bramble]

Rags and thread (also rags).

So just take every curtain in Kentucky, strip those zombies, and have a blast.

[bitter aurora]

[bitter bramble]

I don’t get that reference.

[little garden]

delete the Apop file 🙂

[quiet geyser]

They already said, b I g s w e a t e r

[wicked galleon]

goofy...

[wicked galleon]

lmao not a bad idea

[bitter bramble]

All those sheep and the rams will still fight.

[wicked galleon]

how much of each animal does it take for you to feed off of nothing but meat perpetually

[buoyant belfry]

Sew all the things. Make a loom. Make sheets, thread, clothing patches, pillows.

[wicked galleon]

breeding wise

[bitter bramble]

Two rabbits.

Male and a female.

[wicked galleon]

it seems inefficient to spread the xp gain across that big a variety of things, especially with no base trait point invested in it

[wicked galleon]

is that true lmao

[quiet geyser]

The saying about rabbits breeding exists for a reason

[bitter bramble]

It would make more sense if we actually needed anything Tailoring does. It’s 90% stuff we can scavenge.

[wicked galleon]

while true I do like to repair clothes I find

[bitter bramble]

As it is, most of what I craft to level up I’m going to throw away.

[wicked galleon]

im really specific about stuff like Hawaiian shirts

[bitter bramble]

Can’t even sew those!

[wicked galleon]

the sheer materials man.

[buoyant belfry]

Make things you will use. Two birds, one stone kind of approach.

Repair clothing. Add armor patches. Make sheets to cover windows. Make pillows for your beds.

Make bandages for your first aid stations and safe houses.

You’ll level up faster than you realize

[bitter bramble]

I actually didn’t know that you could make bandages.

[wicked galleon]

I don't play with a lot of those things in mind!

its a bit unfortunate

its why I gotta grind it outright

[buoyant belfry]

Well it’s just “rip clothing”.

Kill zeds. Stand on a pile of them. Get yourself 50 rags.

Go home, wash em, sterilize them, toss in your medical cabinet.

[verbal pelican]

what train mechanics mod works in b42.18

[bitter bramble]

Listen you, that was a terrible misdirection. I’ve been lied to!

[wicked galleon]

well, I'll take the idea of just infinite bandanas

[bitter bramble]

Thought I could make a damn bandage, not just scraps of Ralph Lauren boxer briefs.

[wicked galleon]

it seems the most practical for what I can do anyway

[buoyant belfry]

Either way it’s a grind for any skill.

I level up carpentry by chopping down trees, making a pile of like 50 logs, sawing all those for a pile of 200 planks, then those turn into 10 tiles of a wooden fence or 5 tiles of a wooden wall.

Barricade and seal off an area. Pretty soon I’m at carpentry 6 just securing my home base

[bitter bramble]

Leave them at each house you loot. You’ll be the Bandana Bandito!

[bleak dust]

yeah ill take infinite bandanas at a house with a freshly run over trash can for 200, Alex

[wicked galleon]

lmfao

[wicked galleon]

to some degree, yeah.

[little garden]

or be a tailor help alot 🙂

[wicked galleon]

expensive!

[bitter bramble]

Yeah, just take Sewer and halve the pain.

[little garden]

Multi characters are a Vanilla thing

[buoyant belfry]

So approach tailoring the same way. Collect tons of leather. Upgrade EVERY clothing item you own with leather armor bonuses.

Long johns are still the secret best armor cause you get full body coverage with leather strips.

[quiet geyser]

Is it even worth it to lvl tailoring? I never have gone into it, the most I do is mend holes when they happen

[winter minnow]

except long johns are very rare

[wicked galleon]

I used long johns primarily back in b41 to power level to 10

[bleak dust]

yes

[wicked galleon]

you could find them oddly consistently with gated community homes

[quiet geyser]

Wait should I have been saving up long johns

[winter minnow]

It's very unfashionaboid but it's worth it for no downside protection

[bleak dust]

i made denim briefs, patched my clothes, made a advanced large frame pack

[buoyant belfry]

Not on residential zombies. A group of 50 near homes almost always has 1-2 zeds with long johns

[winter minnow]

Not in mine alas

[bleak dust]

and 20k bandanas

[wicked galleon]

coveralls are good too, but long johns are unique in their layering

[bleak dust]

i also made 20k badanas, thats a thing

[quiet geyser]

Leather-enforced full body victorian underwear 😭

[buoyant belfry]

Tailoring 10 + long johns = 10% bonus full armor on everywhere but your head and hands

[wicked galleon]

mm yes, casual

[winter minnow]

I don't know what that is

[bleak dust]

sorry bandanas

spelled it out incorrectly

[wicked galleon]

the only problem is layering up does increase your overall body temperature

[buoyant belfry]

But we also have chainmail now, so your choice of armor crafting comes down to your play style

[wicked galleon]

which hurts your sleepiness

[bleak dust]

great in the winter

[buoyant belfry]

Cutest 100% full body armor EVUR

[glacial orbit]

where do i get roles btw?

[bleak dust]

ummm at the id:customize obviously...

[verbal pelican]

[buoyant belfry]

Game starts in the summer. So you gotta survive 3-4 months to see snow

[quiet geyser]

Wait yeah I’m stupid months exist in real life

[glad flicker]

literally right at the top of the list of channels how can you miss it.

[fervent aurora]

Like IRL, in late November-Early December

[bleak dust]

winter in the south starts in december

lol

up north we get it sooner

[bitter bramble]

That can’t be legal.

[open crag]

Happened to me while making a map mod lol

[glacial orbit]

In the UK we have blistering heat for like 2 months then absolute misery for the rest of the year

[open crag]

The basement might still be under the house tho

[wicked galleon]

wow wth lmao

[open crag]

See if you can break the floor inside the house or something

[bitter bramble]

Oh, yeah. Dig a grave and hop in.

[open crag]

But only if you have a way to climb back up lol

I THINK you can go through the grass if there's a staircase underneath... But I'm not too sure

[bitter bramble]

How fast does rain fill a basement?

[open crag]

Wait a moment...

[bleak dust]

its never hot where i live because i have air conditioning

and its nice

105 degree with high humidity? no bother

[open crag]

For that basement entrance to work, the stairs should be facing west... We only have south and east facing stairs in the game

Wtf

[verbal pelican]

its vanilla too

[bleak dust]

even those directions are questionable to me since the map points north all wrong

[true garden]

I've heard of unfinished basements but dayum

[bitter bramble]

It might just be a badly built shed.

[bitter bramble]

Wait, why is there a door going under the stairs? This house is fishy.

[verbal pelican]

it also is just a single tile room

[bitter bramble]

Did you say it was from a mod?

[open crag]

THIS ISN'T VANILLA

[thick fern]

wow, build tower?

Friggin’ MC Escher staircase

[shell meteor]

anyone playing mp is auto drinking working for you ?

[buoyant belfry]

MC escher T-shirts were all the rage in

[buoyant belfry]

Yep works fine on my server.

Check your own “disable auto drink” setting in options.

It’s client side, not server

Same with the setting for keeping keys in a car. That’s in your main menu. The server doesn’t change that setting.

[shell meteor]

yah its enabled , although at first it wasnt , but i went back and ticked the box

[bleak dust]

my favorite game is Diablo two but it’s still fucks with me

[bitter bramble]

Too bad there’s no sub-sub-basement in the military research base where the game becomes Diablo.

[buoyant belfry]

Some modded items or items affected by mod may not be recognized.

But otherwise it should work as intended. Check your option menu again while ON the server. just to make sure

[pseudo flicker]

when are we getting more fire pz soundtracks

[stable notch]

@true garden the first house had a cool basement 🔥

made a starting storage room out of the dining room

[shell meteor]

ok , yah im just vanilla im gonna restart server just incase and see

[glacial orbit]

Can anyone explain the diffrence between safehouses and late safehouses?

saw on the wiki for item spawnrates

[mint sparrow]

MAN

I thought stendos was cleared

Cuz last time I killed zeds there, that was the end

But just a I was ab to go in there were like

Just 100-200 zeds in the forst

Forest in the surrounding area

I killed 200 of them but I highk gotta dip now

Im so covered in blood 😭

[bitter bramble]

I’ll try to remember: early safehouse is up until day 10, mid is up to 90 days, and late is after that. Is that right, @little garden?

[vagrant bramble]

Can't pick up this type of tent can ya

[bitter bramble]

You can’t? I think you can.

[wicked galleon]

i think you can, you're supposed to be able to pick them up and pack them

[bitter bramble]

Use the furniture pick-up tool.

[vagrant bramble]

can't

tho it does show up, nothing starts, character doesn't pick it up

[wicked galleon]

is there anything inside it?

ik the ui can be goofy

[vagrant bramble]

nope

[wicked galleon]

odd

[wicked galleon]

try hovering your mouse on the left end of the tent

and clicking on that tile

[vagrant bramble]

they're fully functional, right click shows an option to rest, it pops up in the ui, has an inventory

but none of the tiles let you pack it up

[wicked galleon]

wack

[thorny quiver]

Tent 2 fancy

[wicked galleon]

what about the other tent?

[vagrant bramble]

same case for all 3

[wicked galleon]

i t hink it might just be bugged

[vagrant bramble]

a small 2-tile hide tent i was able to pick up

these areas are a lil' forgotten, prolly very few people are gonna come across these so it's no surprise there's a few issues

that brazier can't be picked up, tho it is functional(full campfire) and the tanning racks that have a hide decoration in them, if picked up, leave the hide decoration floating

[hoary gazelle]

Are you overloaded?

Can't carry more than 50.

[vagrant bramble]

nope, dw, dropped everything and still couldn't pick it up

[wicked galleon]

huh.

really does track

[vagrant bramble]

low str character but a weight of 6 out of 11 total would still allow me to pick a large stone, the tents are only 10

[hoary gazelle]

I definitely picked one up that I had pitched in .17 but maybe a new bug or a mod conflict.

[little garden]

thats what the 42.1 patch notes said , aint seen anything since

[vagrant bramble]

might just be an old-er area of the map using old models that people haven't messed much with

[hoary gazelle]

That's new since B42 at least.

[vagrant bramble]

above this area there's this cabin with a few traps and more examples; there's clearly 4 Fishing traps on the ground but they can't be interacted with for pickup

alongside a snare and two cages that can

[wicked galleon]

well it may be new by our standards

but im not sure we have information that details when those assets were actually created in the development process

[hoary gazelle]

I was able to set fishing traps in deep water from a dock and they were unretrievable recently. They break if you set them more than 2 tiles from shore.

[dense sun]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AFMaLJtYD2Q

[bitter bramble]

So you just chuck them and they sink. 😆

[bitter bramble]

Could you have interacted with the racks and taken the hides?

[glass mango]

What is going on man it’s been one year and we still can’t dismantle butcher hooks?

[vagrant bramble]

Yeah the racks were usable, but the hides are just flying decoration

[dense sun]

yeah

use mods

like im being so for realsies twin you gotta use mods

[limber urchin]

but if the feature was vanilla itd be better

[buoyant belfry]

Stand on other side a few steps away then trigger the pickup tool. Watch where you walk. Your path may be “blocked” by the tanning rack or rocks

[dense sun]

yeah

[bitter bramble]

So stingy. They couldn’t even put real leathers on there? Dang.
Is this out by the McCoy Estate?

[dense sun]

but its probably

never

gonna be

[hazy cape]

yo guys, quick question, can u padlock any container or only crates?

[dense sun]

like the one billion other things

that arent vanilla

which is why im saying

use mods

literally the only way to fix missing features

[vagrant bramble]

Wouldn't work dw, tried all the tents

anyways here's the cabin i was talking about, these 3 models in it you can't interact with; bucket, and either barrel

and these fishing traps on the ground

[bitter bramble]

Yeah, that bucket looks very unique. No rags on other buckets.

[vagrant bramble]

(none of them can be picked up/right clicked/disassembled)

in the case of the barrels they have colision

can't hit em' tho

[bitter bramble]

Decorative. Probably made in Taiwan in bulk.

[vagrant bramble]

absolutely goddam true

[hearty hollow]

Flying decoration: the history LSU classroom has the same problem

Also hate the fact that you cannot pick up the loom in there 🙁 ITS RIGHT THERE! 😭

[bitter bramble]

There’s a loom in WP that you can pick up, isn’t there? Or maybe you can’t. I don’t remember.

[vagrant bramble]

it's used right above as well in another little camp, it's around brandenburg as well which led me to figure they were done early and have been somewhat forgotten about

[bitter bramble]

Maybe it’s all set dressing for a remote Woodcraft shoot. 😝

[vagrant bramble]

middle of BF nowhere 💀

[bitter bramble]

That goddam river has no right to just show up and spawn all of this useless baloney.

I’m mad because I nearly broke my car in two driving down the middle of a bridge that crosses that river.

[vagrant bramble]

gives me coniptions

it's nearly clayless

[bitter bramble]

Who puts a rail in the middle of a bridge? In farming country!?

Shoot, I need clay. I might have to hit the river or EC or something.

[vagrant bramble]

diggable clay is less reliable than foraging anyways, ya won't need thaaaaaat much

[fallow blaze]

does it work for mp .

[glass mango]

We shouldn’t rely on modders for basic features

[fallow blaze]

?

[dense sun]

tell that to bethesda

😭

[true garden]

But what else am I supposed to do

[dense sun]

mods

[true garden]

Yeah, can't have them in vanilla I'll run out of ideas lmao

[hoary gazelle]

Somebody posted a title with the Header "Destroying the real monsters..." - He was wrecking that rail with a crowbar.

CROWBAR SUPREMACY

[stable notch]

dr freeman?

[ebon musk]

obv i know respirators are best against corpse sickness, but what else helps prevent it?

do surgical masks and bandanas decrease it at all

[stable notch]

bandanas

[true garden]

I sold my doctorate for more crowbars

[stable notch]

if you can make a improvised gas mask and makeshift filters

that’ll be easier to maintain

[clear dagger]

Yo, does anyone here work on mods? I am a sound designer and I'm looking to get involved with some modders to make some sick ass stuff.

[ebon musk]

im looking for tape for one yea

[stable notch]

otherwise stay away from bodies til they rot, or bury em or burn em

[ebon musk]

so before that im just plowing thru em with a mace and moving around enough

[true garden]

I'd recommend hitting up the PZ Modding Community discord (check my tag)

[ebon musk]

do the disposable masks reduce it at least a little tho?

i guess i can just wear my keffiyeh instead lol. i forgot i had one

nvm

[clear dagger]

I see the steam one, not the discord link. would u mind sending it ovee?

[swift pasture]

hi guys im downloading pz rn, any tips for beginners?

[ebon musk]

you can outwalk the zombies, which takes no endurance aslong as you arent overencumbered

[swift pasture]

can you customise the zombies speed

[ebon musk]

also NEVER EVER EVER sprint it will just kill you if you so much as touch a wall or a fence near a zombie

[ebon musk]

yeah but i wouldnt recommend starting with sprinters on

[swift pasture]

alr thx

gonna try it out cya guys

[true garden]

Can't send link in chat, it's this

[true garden]

Be okay dying, it's gonna happen a lot to start

[ivory gorge]

Anyone know a replacement for the summer car mod's engine parts?

[hoary gazelle]

You can outwalk them. Visual stealth is weak. Learning to herd larger groups away from stuff and lose them is a critical early game player skill to learn. Play the in-game tutorial. Watch a popular YT video on how to melee.

Gotta know the secret handshake to get in

[glad prairie]

Need to hit a deadlift PR of 315/140

Pretty easy

[buoyant belfry]

#mod_development is where you want to look

[buoyant belfry]

The CUTE server

[wicked galleon]

is every door being open part of the "pre-looted" mechanic?

[dense sun]

mfs be sending you friend requests after ghosting and unadding you 3 years ago like nothing

😭

[hearty hollow]

Hold on a sec.. lemme send one too

[fiery onyx]

Pre-looted places have trash and items on the floor.

[wicked galleon]

right, but is this also part of that mechanic

because im seeing every house here, which this is my spawn town, have a bunch of open doors

[fiery onyx]

I don't think so...some house just have open doors.

[wicked galleon]

its all of them lmao

the entire gated community

[fiery onyx]

Could be then.

How long have you been in this world?

[wicked galleon]

three entire days

i dont get why it's doin that

[fiery onyx]

Seems random at 3 days.

[wicked galleon]

all of the doors within each house, or most of them, is open as well

[cold wing]

Why can't I aim? I can't even bind right click to it. Did these dudes really push an update without checking if you could still attack?

[thorny quiver]

Check ur settings my friend

[fiery onyx]

I can aim.

[thorny quiver]

Iirc someone else had some weird issue with this

The keybind was screwy

Its something weird with it not liking right click after being rebound once

I think its fixable

[glad flicker]

did you unbind the toggle key aka Ctrl?

[charred cedar]

Have you played with controller in the last 42 days? We know exactly what you mean 😄

[fiery onyx]

Is there a setting to auto drop things like tires when you remove them?

[glad flicker]

not sure if they fixed that but there was a bug if you unbound the 'keybind' for attack it broke also right mouse button. fix was just keybinding it to anything.

[cold wing]

Nah I don't play with controller. I managed to fix it by binding it to a random key and right click started working again, really weird. But I think you're probably thinking along the right tracks, I wouldn't be surprised if the controller support updates are causing problems for both KB&M and Controllers.

[vocal creek]

anyone else here play extinction ? 🙂 im soon on 6 month in im so proud 😄

live in the woods, build a mansion and a farm there

[glad flicker]

Im gonna test if that bug still exists now

[hearty hollow]

6 months extinction? NICE! Not getting crazy about those fast respawns?

[glad flicker]

And it dont, just unbound attack key to 'none' and RMB still working so thats not a problem

[vocal creek]

i didnt change any settings in extinction and have 2k kills

key is to kinda live with your car 😄 and get cows safe

[quiet geyser]

IFound a survivor home where the entire place had almost no containers save for the kitchen cabinets (which had normal kichen loot) the single container with some sports stuff and recipe mags (I already had read)

[fiery onyx]

I found a small survivor home just packed with guns and ammo.

[gloomy copper]

3 M16s, 8 spare mags, 14 extra ammo boxes

This should be enough for 1 building in Louisville

[quiet geyser]

I always have the worst survivor home luck

This nearly empty one is the second one I have found on this 2 month long save btw 💔

I don't find them and when I do they suck

[drowsy geode]

okay so guys should i enable sprinters on my next playthrough

[quiet geyser]

hell yeah

[drowsy geode]

what about making them vault

[gloomy copper]

door opening sprinters 👍

[drowsy geode]

and bash themselves into windows onetapping them

[mint ingot]

Classic mistake of using guns in cities!

[quiet geyser]

I want to try out some sprinters soon but i'm a nooby wuss

[drowsy geode]

would you like to try them together

i have 10 hours

[quiet geyser]

Naw sorry, I don't really have time

[drowsy geode]

[quiet geyser]

[drowsy geode]

[oblique stirrup]

@livid shoal did you manage to live or did you die

[drowsy geode]

for me

my character is going to die soon i know it

[night acorn]

I've stuck with slow but smarter. Long memory, navigate+open doors.

[drowsy geode]

Ever tried fast but fragile with bad memory

[night acorn]

Nope. I've occasionally just had like 2-5% sprinters. Freshies.

[drowsy geode]

i draw doodles on my map when in a stressfull situation

[bleak dust]

anyone good at knowing how to reduce lag in week one?

i have a computer that should handle i

but its not

just wondering if there are certain golden settings that fix it

[mint ingot]

Is it the flying ragdolls that cause the problem

[bleak dust]

so just dont have them?

[mint ingot]

pretty much i guess

i havent figured out how to turn em off tho

try to find a way i guess

Probably by a mod or something

[bleak dust]

i at least reduced it

gonna try to restart it

and see if it helps

[cold wing]

Yeah I've been trying to find a way to get rid of the ragdolling too, especially when using shotgun, it's stupid.

[bitter bramble]

If I shot a shotgun in real life I’d probably ragdoll backwards.

It’d be like letting go of an untied balloon.

[glad flicker]

more like induced seizure from the pain

[bitter bramble]

Sure, I could do that too. Who knows? I’m up for anything.

[glad flicker]

so how long have batteries been able to be hooked up to any light source thought there was special lights for battery lights

[bitter bramble]

At Elec 5 you can make lamps battery-powered, right? Are you saying there’s more options?

[glad flicker]

Im looking at outdoor lights on my wall with an option to wire it up to a battery. I thought only battery lights was the ones we 'made'

[cold wing]

Ah you can just straight up turn them all off, that's nice

[glad flicker]

maybe? dunno again never seen this before maybe cuz I didnt have the parts for it no idea.

[sour pine]

EAT MORE PAIN PILLS FOR MORE SITUPS

[glacial orbit]

lmao the first time i shot a longgun i got smaked in the face and got an fracture

[glad flicker]

Its'l log It's log, it's big it's heavy it's wood it's log it's log it's better than bad, it's good!

[open crag]

Nah ragdolls are fucking hilarious

They are even funnier when you hit zombies while spinning in a car

[obsidian shoal]
