Oh yeah, PZ has had issues at least for me with not making use of the RAM I have, and then it hiccups when it needs to swap something with the SSD. It just refuses to use more than 1,5GB. I've used both the Steam command line and ProjectZomboid64.json edits, neither has an effect.
anybody ever 100% westpoint before?
cia

probably glows in the dark too
Insane spyware that comes built-in. Customization is identical to any other chromium browser. And they have done some incredibly stupid shit like the time they made it so Eric Andre just screamed at you any time you opened the browser as an ad that you couldn’t get rid of

my whole life already being watched by the government
you'd be the kinda guy to surrender to subscription services for PCs
hell nah
mozilla firefox, duck duck go search set up, and use the pop up blocker that we all know annd love
One of the stupidest fucking things I’ve ever seen
the fuck is duck duck go bru

ive just cut back on social media and the internet the older i get, all i use is youtube mostly these days
they also hard set the browser to yandex i think
put the phones downnnn
yuh
Haven’t used it in years so idk
After the Eric Andre shit I went back to Firefox
me 2
its a search engine, similar to Google's search engine
dude thats bad, that's like believing the modern NBA is good
it claims "privacy first" which is difficult to achieve
Nah it’s not as bad as google. You can’t even search “disregard” on google xdd
tor browser
duck duck go should be everyone's default search engine here
i wasnt claiming it was like google, i said the search engine functionality is the same as searching with Google, which they've already done their whole lives
impractical
best for privacy tho no?
nah I'm into adults anyways, I don't need that
bro what
tor is not just for that........
tor != grok
Using tor is definitely weirdge
it's also for drugs and guns
granted some criminals use it but thats really not what its for obv
That’s like saying “that’s not what bitcoin is for”
If that’s what most of its users use it for… does it matter?
noitsnot
ill grant it for that too, but tbh you shouldn't be using the internet at all for drugs and guns, lets be real
because its also not what its used for
Bitcoin is primarily used for speculative “investing” and illegal/grey market transactions
and there are a majority of users that do not use tor for illegal purposes
I mean everyone knows Tor has been full of feds at least the last 10 years
bad wording on my part, supposed to be used for*
bitcoin despite popular belief is totally traceable
how so
'majority' 5 ppl
if you have access to any end, it's traceable, and there are many people who have no problem publishing their ends
Again the supposed use becomes irrelevant
any part of a transaction chain if you have access gives you full access to the transaction chain
Once the actual use takes over
completely wrong
tor and many other privacy services are used by many different groups around the world for privacy, as exactly as it is
think "vigilante" groups that are working against corrupt governments, etc
that means you are relying on every person in that blockchain to remain anonymous
which is the dumbest thing you can do
how does this chat always manage to develove into some completely random bs
🤫
also its worth saying that tor was released to the public by the US govt, i believe
public discord moment
you did the same thing too lol
!?
just a night or 2 ago
🥰
the lorekeeper
I did!!!!!!!!?????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
damn he pulled ur logs, oooooooooo
I do remember
don't even have to pull it, it was me they were talking to
just to end on a decent resolution, most privacy tools obviously will be adopted by criminals
but they're obviously also gonna be used by people who need it to do good in places that have awful laws or corrupt officials, etc.
its a spectrum as most things in life are
cause i wanna make some plans to clear the place out strategically, this place takes forever to get anywhere
Buddy stay on topic this is ham sandwich chat now
true true my apologies original gangster
ham sandwich? hes measureheadposting
what is defined as a timed action
for unhappiness
like is that attacking or is it just stuff like eating, building, dismantling
i think its mostly the same things as the accessibility option to resume normal time
usually most people become unhappy because they ate a tv dinner
lets be real
with some few exceptions
?
eating, i think crafting is slower, building is, swapping weapons from your back is
but not attacking or moving right
no those aren't timed actions
I mean, have you seen brutal moose videos?
I must have settled in the poorest hood in Riverside because it seems NOBODY here owned a can opener
tbf its riverside
dealt with the saaaaaaame shit man
hit up the post office and look for handiknives, they have a can opener feature

Chef Ian Brutalfoods is back to continue shoving overly processed Hungry-Man meals into his face and then complaining about it like it wasn't his own idea.
Special Thanks to @HotDad for his singing and dancing this episode!
0:00 Intro
2:06 Meal 1...
Don’t understand cooking but I made a pbj sandwich once because I found the stuff on a table
Those combo ones suck bad he said
slop
I like tv meals
see my youtuber for shitty meals was always the wolfe pit back in the day
he did one on dollar store steaks
fucking gross dude
Another goat
Watched his Vienna sausages video the other day
I’ve tried those they alright for price
gn pz ppl
anyone know a good place to get a shovel?
shovel mart
Sheds?
true..
graveyards
garages and sheds
true..
you know why they have fences around graveyards?
Also where best place to get brooms and long rods for spears
I know ball
its to keep out all the people who are just... dying... to get in
because graves
There’s a big warehouse just up the road from ruby gastowards the checkpoint
now that the heli's gone, it's time to level up my carpentry and score some animals
Tons of tools and misc supplies
dude he did one on how to make homemade spam, and I learned that spam is actually real meat, not processedd
now I know why hawaiians like it so much
if you are going to pick a canned meat, and you want real unprocessed meat, get spam
If you want a genuinely OP canned food, sardines in EVOO
King Oscar is a widely available brand
Sardines in other stuff tend to be worse but you kinda gotta know the brand for higher tier things packed in not-EVOO
But they’re affordable and one of the healthiest things you can possibly eat
And taste good

That looks rough lol
lol its why i watch the wolfe pit dude
Its really not that bad
he eats it so we don't have to
I just kinda hate the inflection in his voice sometimes
However this will be excellent background noise whil I work
“Egg nuggets” dawg what 😭
I love YouTubers lik this though they’re such good background material
Another guy I highly recommend is Matthew Carlson/Canned Fish Files
Slick editing, chill vibes, interesting foods
but to bring it back to PZ
this stuff should be in game and make you sad
unless you like mix it up with something else
do yall like the crib
No
garage life?
beautiful
Prison cell
what does milk powder do
I like the idea of one room set ups lately though
Aka average r/malelivingspace post
does it make milk
Living on first floor like this is just super scary
i would be in a house but all of the houses nearby are all filled with broken doors and windows I don't have the patience to rebuild
Wandering hordes love to smack on garage doors
This is partly why I like one room second floor shelters
2nd floor take out the stairs, sheet rope on the window
You can have a broken front door and maintain safety
Zombies waltz right through your base underneath you
This is how I lived in extinction pop in irvington for a month lmao
tbh I usually clear out my neighborhood for blocks and blocks until heli's just bring like 2-4 dudes a day
That’s badass tbh
this looks like those newly purchased apartment that only has like 2 chairs in it
never seen this glitch
Isnt your ass supposed to be asleep
I had to kill 4000 zombies or so before I had this room to breathe😭
i could NOT sleep
Damn, rough
its already 5 am
i kinda did that but lived entirely on the 2nd floor
sometimes you just gotta do it
Does a scope increase how far your screen can pan? Was gonna use a sniper to scout a place out from far away before moving in to rescue a kidnapped buddy in an RP server, but I'm not noticing any difference in panning from this and my HK416
for peace of mind
For the sanctity of my front lawn
if i walk outside and I hear a zombie, Im pissed
Yes
I'm not seeing any difference though
But sounds like you’re using mods so idk
Or maybe it’s an MP balance thing
In SP it does though
I don’t play MP but it’s entirely plausible there’s a set pan distance for balance reasons
do you have eagle eye?
No, default eyesight
oof
You could be clever about it and simply know where they are like you would a zombie
Shoot a shot within their hearing range and skedaddle lmao
yeah
Then wrap around
thats what I ddod
just don't do what I do and on day 1 shoot up infront of your spawn house after snorting cocaine
Scout out with the sniper a bit, then throw the noisemaker somewhere as we hide in a different place
Badass
Then ambush
I should get a drugs mod so I can reward my guy even more for doing good
Right now he gets tobacco and booze as his presents
There are tho?
Oh wait
Yea just use it

its awesome
Reward your guy by giving them a bath
I don’t usually use many mods
i know a goodd drug mod too
I always do that I’m not a barbsrian
Ii do that
thanks to tech

I built 6 rain collectors for a reason. I’m gonna use them
Gonna use the HK416 for actual fighting unless the guy turns out to have something longer range, then I can use the sniper I'll probably have stashed in our car
I built 14 for no reason
my drug mod you can grow coca and learn to make cocaine
I'm still drinking tub water 3 months in
I’m gonna steal some more from a nearby farm that’s already made
Water just went out for me around day 50
All I use my rain collectors for are filling pots for beans right now lmao
Sadly I don’t think I can easily plumb my current base
Farming is so far off in season
Rain collectors? Just live near a water source 
yeah farming sucks first year
Idk if trees work as cover but if not we can hide behind cars
They do
Confirmed it
First WHAT
I have a bunch of rye seeds
ppl play past the initial 6 months?
i haven't for a while but yes
Bruhhhhhh
What do you even do on month 9 😭 😭 😭
I'm 3 months in and still feel early game
I start in may typically
so 9 months is wintner
so in the winter im surviving off what I got in freezers
and canned goods
Leveling all skills is the endgame if you dont come up with any alternate sandbox activity
I’ve never lived through September
If you have respawns off, you can just go off and clear another town
do rakes have functionality outside of combat?
Modded PZ
i recommend rake bats as wel
Not sure if that was the question but thats my answer
Hoping to make it to 1994 with this run
it hits hardd
I’m in mid-August now
Idk if they have any farming use
so that's a combat functionality
but. still useful i guess
i don't have any baseball bats
Unforch
It can mod other things, but maybe best to save
you should get some or start carving
or both
like I do
Don’t do what I did and clear out crossroads mall just to get 2 baseball bats 

what's flax for?
rake bat is like one of the best damn weapons ever
i recommend spoons then forks and then pipes when you can do em
if i have 317 hours should i be making it to winter? winter is one of my all time goals am i behind???
Carving 9 is just so annoying to get without books
It isnt the worst skill but its days and days of carving
and you can carve forks out of spoons
Also idk if theres any use for the bazillion pipes
Yeah I was making spoons to make ink forks
there's not except to throw them away
Tragic
yeah
I thought so too
but I got like 150 pipes now
so delete
you know.. when I feel like doing it
I still need to drag a trashcan into my base
because Im super lazy and wait till the cupboard is full before deleting shit in the trash
Currently I have like 4 containers filled with pipes
I need to reinstall the trash deletion mod
Oh it’s a setting? Even better
crate fort
Fortnite
no boys allowed
When is zomboid getting a battle pass
i got a bunch of farming and building shit
time to set up a farm and animal pen
heheh
i actually just hit a 0.1 second instant clutch window smash cancel because I accidentally used bare hands
Man I really wanna try and clear irvington race track, but I have so much to do before I even think about it
I'm like 90% sure I'll run out of my banked food let alone anything else
does a garden hoe have any non-combat use?
I dont think anything unique, maybe functions as a trowel
Check wiki for these as you come across them
Theres alot of weapons in the game with weird niche uses, but most of them you can beat zombies with np
Pickaxe I would probably save if you find it
I believe thats a masonry use
i've been through like five fucking cars and no cigarettes
are we even in 90s kentucky
isn't garden hoe the tool you need for tilling dirt?
I want to mod this what some good collects for this
still havent figured it out
idk what pickaxe goes to that specifically cant be done by other tools
5 straight hours of zomboid

ok why cant i place candles down for light
Pickaxe notably also does a fucking ton of damage
aaagggggg
keep going.
A session of zomboid must last 15 hours
we're moving up in the world
Get a carpet tile on your floor
Replace your counters and bookcases with fancy stuff
I love that little QoL update with 42.18 where the game is paused in SP when you read your map, but you can still edit markings on it 👍
my crafting room is so friggen messy
how fix trailers and cars capacity?😭😭 max 169
Fix the trunk
nice
im in debug mode, all cars have 169 capacity
also i love that you can use a knife thats been inside a zombie's brain
cut up some salami/baloney
and eat it without issue
???
Oh
better not give indiestone any ideas
picked slow reader so i'm gonna spend the next day and a half reading two books
You can, yeah. But why would you?
i wouldn't take fast reader since i'd run out of books and have nothing to do at night
but i'd like to finish mechanics vol 1 before the week ends
Crank your hog
jacking my lumber (axe man)
I hate Slow Reader. It was bad enough before 42 added 10 or more skill books.
it aint bad
Just modify the sandbox settings to offset it 
i admit even in singleplayer im kinda picky about how long its taking to read books
but the amount of time it gives you during the early game is crazy
i know its not that bad but its mighty inconvenient
You can literally modify it so meh
might as well just give myself free traits
You mean, you guys don't set a book to read then AFK to do something else...?
You afk with zomboid unpaused??
idk why you would modfiy it when you can just give yourself +4 traits and then pick fast reader
Yes I do?
ez way to die..
I don’t afk to do anything. That’s a good way to lose a character
Wild
by "early game time" i mean actual in-game time where i can do things
Yeah I’m always paying attention in zomboid. If there’s even like someone knocking on my door I’ll pause
well, are you doing that for singleplayer?
so i could just start reading then fuck off
Come back and find your idiot survivor has starved to death ten feet from a freezer full of meat.
single player you can speed up time
but that still doesnt change the amount of in-game time i spend reading
it's not the amount of real-time i spend reading
but the in-game time
Both. Why would I AFK in the middle of the street lol
i need to finish mechanics vol 1 before the heli comes
i dont know why you would afk at all to read in singleplayer lol
That is probably just a poo.
and speeding up the game doesnt change that
Base time is chill time. Just set it to read, while I keep the sound on and do other things.
again? dang it
it's safe in the base
Sometimes I do the laundry or read articles, maybe chat.
if somehow a zombie wanders to your house
that makes sense, i do keep pz unpaused during storms
then breaks your window and bites you
You have more than enough time to react if something happens.
i dont know if that really gave me the answer i was after lol
like i was focused more on the afking part rather than the "where"
Also the periodic rustling of the pages has an odd calming effect to it.
and on that night, for once in its life time, pz chat was quiet
Hmm. I think I found where I'm going to sleep tonight.
not turned into skeletons and rotted off
they're just. gone
i want to make an animal pen but I have nowhere near enough carpentry skill
fuck
gotta lvl it up
board things up
unboard it
board it back up
😮💨
this is how many rag bandanas must be craft to reach level 8 tailoring (with books)
thank you mister wheel for your info
Can someone verify this works or tell me of an effecient way to get thread. Picked up like 40 carpets, no thread
It does work but i've only gotten 4 threads per room
I dont know if it scales with carpentry or tailoring skill
Why are you making these instead of just patching clothes over and over
Is this better?
Downed zombie becomes invisible when fighting in the dark with a flashlight.
In the first screenshot, I'm perfectly positioned for a headstomp but the game decides not to draw the zombies since I "can't see it" 
is it quicker though?
dude idont know.
i'm taking measures into my own ahnds
it took me like an hour or two because im on a MP server.
same
So does valley station only have one spawn? Why to I spawn in the same house every time
I'd recommend you remove curtains for sheets and rip those into rags
And loot house bathrooms for sewing kits to find thread
Animals make noises from insane distances away, like more than a screen
is there an issue where people can see the upstiars or through walls?
4 times
i cant post an image here but i have an issue where the ceiling looks to be like overlapping with the floor?
simple silencers
nobody tell bambi
no place to store him so I guess i'll have to field dress and freeze it
does it work with vanilla firearms expansion?
I wish I could use a butcher hook but not enough carpentry yet
Dunno, probably? It integrates pretty seamlessly for the most part. I'd check the mod page though
checking it, just not seeing anything
it seems to be made with some sense of modding in mind since some of the tooltips denote things like automatic handguns which arent in vanilla
not sure then
is there a way to bind a key to unloading a firearm
anyone know where you can actually SEE the growing seasons of crops once you learn them?
nvm found it
i got something for you then
okay. slight problem with this
so i spread the love
i have none of these things
if it's a mammal, you can milk it
amazing
NOTHING grows in july
nothing grows in the summer wow
lettuce
anyone else kinda dislike gun mods that add too many different types of ammo and too many guns that fill the same roles
ive never really had a problem with those up until recently (read: rain's crashout) and having to try other mods
VFE is great, not too intrusive
currently trying the new guns of marz and... way, WAY too many ammo types
im currently using Vanillla Firearms expanded
sthere a gun mod other than vfe that hits a sweet spot of balance between adding new shit and not flooding the game
rains was kinda okay, still too many but i learned which ones i could ignore at some point
kinda tired of having to start identifying which guns and ammo types i can/should ignore
and i fucking HATE ignoring loot urgh
do alternating crop rows or stuff of that nature make any difference?
yeah i hate the overwhelming variety of stuff in those sorts of mods
the only thing you want to do is be able to reach crops without stepping on them
what does stepping on them do?
so I leave a space between each row
currently looting the gun store in irvington and despite having lowered the ammo spawn rate im kinda fucking overhelmed wince theres too manyt types
currently doing some kind of coping strategy where i group up all of it in the same 3-4 containers, and using proximity inventory i can just open the crafting menu and go straight to packing
but i kinda have to do it without paying too much attention to the sheer amount or else i start panicking
okay im going through the LSU library in louiseville right now
and im having a problem with the loot spawns
i was thinking about using guns of marz, you think vfe is better?
that is, its the same limited selection of books spammed across 5 entire floors
do you like having to manage 5 different types of 5.56 ammo
meaning there is no foraging 5 in the entire building
how the fuck does book loot spawns work
i would post a screenshot of this monstrosity but i cant post images in this chat
did you use a silencer mod with vfe at all and it worked?
this shit is going to take centuries to grow
i'm not going to live to see the end of these crops
no silencer mods. my previous short lived playthrough using vfe kind of made me forget about silencer mods and it was just fine
zomboid isnt mgs anyway
i used to obsess over silencers and being quiet
not so much anymore. guns loud? good, draw the fuckers out so i dont get any nasty surprises when i go into autism looting mode
if i hadnt gotten such a goated start in my current run id immediately restart and ditch marz in favor of vfe
which is unfortunate cause i fucking DIG all of marz's mods
i wish you could make soap from pigs
variety of ammo and guns is just too much for my caveman brain
im sure guns of marz is probably good on mp where you got respawning of loot
oh god no
then you can afford to hit up houses twice for ammo
okay nevermind, i ran across 5-6 books (each) of foraging 3 and 4, but ran into 1 spawn of 5 finally on floor 4?
how does this spawning system work??
looting a single store is a 15-20 mins task of sorting through all of the junk
i would fucking despise having to do it twice in the same building
same feeling as clearing a town of all of its zeds again when playing with respawn on
oh you wouldn't do a gun store on mp lol
thats stupid
you hit up your local survivor house
idk ive never played zomboid mp
doesnt seem like a problem to me
too many zombies or what?
you're playing multiplayer, if theres 5x as many zombies just bring 5 ppl
the idea on mp is you turn on loot respawn for people
and places like survivor houses you don't move into it
you use it as a loot pick up spot
makes sense, but id despise it
i kinda force myself to gather as much loot as i can and carefully sort and organize it as i go, never just dump in a pile
like by type
that's kind of a strange question
it's like saying "whats the answer to my algebra question"
i don't know, i haven't seen it
it wouldn't make sense to have loot respawn off on mp due to the amount of people
thats the thing
unless you have server wipes
if you do server wipes, you could get away with that
mod load order follows logic. if you have mods that work together, you load them in the proper order.
example: i add a mod that adds a new car.
i add a second mod, which will make that new car rusty.
i will be loading the first mod first, and its rust skin second
think of it like copying and pasting files on your computer
if you're pasting files fro mtwo different folders and one of the files shares a name, the one you paste second will crush the first one
mod loading order works the same
its a pain to figure out, but for the most part, if you see a red mod, drag a mod that it supports on top of it, and it should turn it green
on mp its a bigger issue
you can't just make it green
I played week one mod
you gotta study each mod and its importance
another question that im not sure anyone knows outright: does bandaging over a stitch overlap the stitch's healing benefit code-wise, or did they fix that?
no idea
time to go look for animal trailers so something can feed me while I wait 240 days for my garlic to grow
ive sorted 2000+ modlists in my skyrim days. that was a game in itself.
kind of get a similar feeling in zomboid, albeit not to the same extent. here, i can spend time modding the game, then i can also play it.
with massive modlists in skyrim, you spend weeks building a modlist and then never play it
i outright have no idea
actually i'm gonna level carpentry first
yea im gonna call it a night and tomorrow ill start over (AGAIN), but this time with vfe over guns of marz. way too much junk.
unfortunate but it is what it is
@bleak dust i do not in fact recommend guns of marz, at least not right now
i do recommend every single other mod of his. hot brass is goated
the thing just came out. he might well improve it far quicker than you'd expect.
yeah i use hot brass too
night chat stay woke
live off onions like stanley yealnats
i just got jumpscared so hard by something from a mod and i have no clue what mod
did they remove the new spawnzones??
yeah but if you go into sandbox you can access them
ahh that was it lol
https://youtu.be/KxpVKcN4neI this is the jumpscare
That’s a mod for home loading right
Been thinking about getting one for that
we still here
couldnt go back to b41
Cope and seethe
not stable now but the game has been improved substancially
playing mp with my friend once when she had a shit ton of mods enabled
Mod addiction 💀
while i was still just a 30 minute player
i miss my beloved britas
felt like giving a newborn baby a crack pipe laced with 30 different variations of ketamine
Where can I find blacksmithing skillbooks in Muldraugh?
I have no stamina, and I must stomp
school
Might also find them in that one big warehouse that often has alot of blacksmithing stuff. And the storage units.
The one at the north of town?
I have a game idea
who wants to hear
wind chill already exists, now give us actual wind direction
and be able to shelter behind buildings from the wind
this one
I think I already checked there but I'll take a look
Leveling anything in this game without skill books is a slog so I'm hoping I find one
muld has like 2 or more storage units
Also, two storage units... let's see if I get them right finally
Oh yeah, that's a storage unit too! By the warehoue marked in the first post.
ton of warehouses too
and the logging warehouse outside of town
I got like 12 axes there
game needs the chainsaws back
@iron swift Did you check the bookstore yet, I forget?
Can't remember but I don't think so, I'll look there too
Books at the School also
I usually check both at the same time
Also check out one of the convenience stores in the same building as the bookstore, it has magazine shelves. Although you may not be looking for magazines specifically.
just drive by the school, break the side window and raid
ghlaaku. kinda mad the north facing mag racks dont work
I already looked in the school, it mostly had level 1 skillbooks which I don't need anymore
check the mechanics for high level mechanic books
Like the ones at the West Point Gigamart 
He does squats but yes I do burpees
Lots of burpees
I’m 93 weight so a fatass like me needs to sweat
Have you thought to yourself. How many bottles of Bleach (used as water) and Chip bags a zed as Fitness Instructor with Low gain of Thirst and Hunger would need for 90 days in PZ?
And how many Zomboid
Ooh, hydration pack got buffed! 2 liter capacity!
Back? Were they before?
they existed once, but were very beta
cutting down trees in one go is nice
without much stamina usage
loud doh
Aren't in Game Files there's a chainsaw?
B43 Guns Overhaul
why cant I drink directly from the tap
its a bug
1234
I hate LV pop
what happen? you died?
b42 when?
I'm so confused 😥
My character is a veteran and he woke up tense in the middle of the night. I did a full sweep of my walled off area and no signs of anything wrong. I took sleeping pills and woke up 8 hours later still tense
No signs of infection or even any injuries and no smoker trait 💔
veterans can still have nightmares
I'm just confused why it lasted almost 12 hours
they are also not immune to panic anymore in b42, however they are extremely resistant to it
are you using mods?
No
are you implying you were paniced or stressed for 12 hours
stress for 12 plus hours after a nightmare is pretty normal stress wise, reading a book or watching tv should be good
I just had the tense moodlet from midnight to 11:30
yeah that is normal
Ohh ok
You just needed to find a source of de stress treatment
I thought it would clear faster so I could sleep again
books/cmics/tv shows/ ect can calm it
I didn't consider that 😥
panic prevents sleep
if u are playing veteran it is wise to keep books or cigarettes or alcohol or whatever
however tense does not
Thank you!
hope4 that helps
Oh it did for me until I was ridiculously tired from sleeping pills
Weird
It did! I'm pretty new to this game and this is my longest run so I'm not familiar with everything yet!
Nah, there's alot of them. Especially in small suburb areas
mb, was at work, its random btw, i know im hella late but ye.
ive never found the spiffo suit legitimately, visited every spiffos on the map multiple times across multiple characters and the zombie has just never spawned
i gotta have this damn suit eventually
i think its literally the rarest thing aint it?
big spiffo plush is rarer iirc
In the TRASH
lucky ass
buhhh!!!
spawn house btw
ive found 2 luthex watches in the trash but never a spiff
i didnt know big spiffo was actually that rare lol
then again ive found like 3 sledges in 500 hours
melting glass in a crucible doesn't complete and stops at 100%. Any advice?
ive only found 3 in my 1k hours in b42
Sledges are easier
damn
i dont think big spiffo existed in b41
2k hours and 0 of them
as my other 2k hours were in b41
so i just randomly tripped into a rare item lmao
i actually think luck is real atp bc what tf kinda shit is me finding rare loot with ease but then never finding a WORKING CAR
these legs were made for walkin
ive walked from riverside to louisville just cuz i thought it'd be fun to be a nomad
hell back in the day that was the only option right
i could jog to rose wood probably if i wasnt over encumbered, my character for some reason regen stam while they run so if i only jog they can jog, forever-
keep on keepin on
i still think its pretty cool but brutal you can wear no shoes and get like 3rd degree frost bite
either that or doing what i do, a cocktail of water and juice and booze
i never end up using painkillers or beta blockers because of how short they last
why does my pain come back in like 20 mins
Smoke them if you have them I say
well i do always have tons
i never use beta blockers bc i dont think i should depend on a item just to fight, i fight while terrified
also bc i want to save them for huge hordes
it's more practical to just mix a bit of alcohol in your water bottle and automatically negate all those debuffs
beer is a cure all
ye
yeah literally
you can also mix milk in there to keep topped up on calories
idk, guess we light weights
ever tried redbull with milk? probably something like that
why are all the vc channels locked for me
why in God's name would i ever try that
like the old ways say. yolo
I use betablockers like an addict because you don't need that long to clear a horde anyways
i can't imagine milk bourbon and water would be a pleasurable mixture
no
I think it should depend on if it’s an actual item you can cook or if it’s just a mystery liquid
I use beta blockers irl
it should depend on the mixture fr
yeah i agree
i only agree with this if it was like bitters or flavor stuff for alcohol
a cocktail is a good mix, a mixed beverage is mixed, and i think they could just make jungle juice the term for adding random liquids together in a bottle
milk and anything should depress you but vodka and juice would be fine
milk and chocolate?
Jungle juice
Do betablockers make you forget shit btw
Why would they
yes
just looked it up
they can cause brain fog like most other mental meds
like my lexapro did and thats a antidepressant
Damn
That's ... suboptimal
They block the beta
what are my betas
its blood pressure meds
Non alpha
theyre blood pressure meds
which i find weird how they can affect the brain when theyre a blood pressure med- then again.. blood pressure-
alpha allowers that instantly give you max panic
i saw when i looked it up
It helps anxiety
i saw that too lol, but its weird how it affects the brain too-
besides the anxiety part- i get how that affects the brain
Its an anti anxiety med cause it stops the adrenaline dump
do you know why it causes brain fog though? or should i go look that up real quick-
Lots of things
Anxiety causes brain fog, and a lot of other comorbid disabilities do too
I have adhd inattentive type, which brings with it lots of other issues ☺️
it said the medication itself can also cause brain fog too which is where im lost at but im guessing for some it helps with their anxiety and brain fog while for others it makes it worse?
i have adhd combined type and i do not recommend it
i have AuDHD lol
what are some safety tips if you want to make a fishing pier in the big river?
It depends really
makes sense
Im also defo audhd lol
brain fog is pretty gross too
it legit feels like your high but ur not
and not the fun type of high
Meds help for sure, its annoying that i have to try meds for both adhd and anxiety
im guessing its kinda like for me, lexapro, an antianxiety and anti depressant made me so zombie like i dont remember most those days clearly.
Im cleared for SSRIs
alot of ppl with adhd struggle with ssris due to how we process dopamine i think
ssris?
which sucks cause srris are pretty neat
anti depression meds
oh-
aomte anti depression meds are also used for chronic pain
SSRIs arent limited to depression treatment though
yeah they stopped trying with most antidepressants i think- they had me on bupropin for a while
which im considering taking
its great for quitting smoking, i know that
celexa is great for that
some shrinks give it to help ppl quit alot of things
@copper stratus get in gen chat
Idk. I don't think i have ADHD, but i am special, cus of some mental condition
This is zomboid chat
hey guys i’m having the weird x-ray vision thing, how do i fix that?
mmkay
Are you running Debug mode with Cheat Menu?
no just running the game as normal on a multiplayer server and solo, but are super buggy with the walls
I can't link twitter here right
just get in vehicle and press Q. Then kill all zombies. I know you pick strong + athletic.
what happen?
it unstable
if want play mp, play in b41 i guess
that’s so stupid, this has apparently been an issue for NINE MONTHS?
for 9 month?
yeah, i’ve seen reports on this issue since october of last year
the thing i dont like in b41 is eating just very small portion rotten / burnt food would kill you
i was hoping it was a mod but apparently it’s intended
looking suggestions to what make of brandesburg's police station front section
what do u mean?
i though the issue due to mod
maybe next update in end month
windowed rooms. I don't exactly have use for those rooms if I make station as my base.
you want make base in brandenburg?
yes
what the hell?
i like location
my inventory is not full.
your carry 50 weight?
you play puny unfit?
yes
the character in game want to troll you?
Jesus i feel sorry for you
in 16x pop 1% sprinter?
just cdda insane pop
sure it has only 1 entrance. and more open space but I liked much more gunstore appartment than i did the yacht I also tried out firestation which i realized was not to my liking once i realised roof access was arse
you like to find another gun and store it in your gun store + apartement?
as base?
how do u set your water and food source there?
In P.S deliah, its excellent fishing spot
there is a yatch basement for your gun storage i guess
i was planning to before save bugged due mods. to demolish blue house's second floor for farm land
had my first bath in the run almost 2 months in
show me your char info that survive 2 month
plus char weight, trait, occupation
omg, otw very underweight
cdda zombie still respawn?
You look like you're in need of some extra protein, Joshua Graham.
i'm working on a nice fishing pier rn
why are they there lol
why there is zombie in edge your pier?
lol 😄
Zed distribution over water bodies are hilariously random.
isnt cdda still old setting that zombie will respawn?
why so long? 7 tiles is enough afaik to get the deep water bonus
its bug?
how do u kill them?
old cdda has very high respawn, much faster and more % than regular apoc
but now?
Used to be. Now it's fixed.
But if you have walkable tiles across water bodies, zeds can and will randomly spawn on them. Because it's the only "valid" tiles in the zone.
That also explains why some zeds can mysteriously spawn inside pillars at the mall. Because the pillars have a tile inside.
meh... just feels more comfortable, less likely to draw zombies... fishing makes like 20 tiles of noise i believe
the new cdda setting have zombie spawn turn off?
correct
migration on, respawn off
how about the population and loot rarity?
and how you stripped the zombies?
insane pop, i know that natures bounty is set to the lowest without being off, i think loot rarity is extremely rare
I don't bother.
why?
Why would I bother...? They're on unwalkable terrain.
how about nature ambudance?
very low
If I had to stop and search every single zed along the way, I'd be an extremely busy woman.
why extremely busy woman?
so its hard to get food?
very hard. i haven't found a single stick of butter. all the farm animals seem to be dead. there's no insects in winter so its hard to get fish bait.
how about giga mart?
if i aim as far as i can i can't see the shore... that seems far enough for safety lol
how there is a zombie in the pier?
is the zombie following you?
why you make very long pier lol?
wish i knew. i left to sleep and they were at the very end of it when i returned.
what cdda pz version you play?
42.18
start from 42.18 in day 1?
Hi hi
yes
i literaly checked in debug and its set to off.
If I'm inside during the helicopter event and it doesn't spot me am I "safe" or does it know where I am at all times?
I’m going to start barricading my bases windows and doors
(it’s day 85 and I haven’t done it yet)
is there still heli event in cdda?

yes, same as apoc, 6 to 9 days afert start
better let the helicopter see you and you are outside from your base
sometimes, offen, once?
same as apoc, once
I’ve never been spotted by helicopter event 
I’m too sneaky 
I kinda wish I wasn’t tho 
why not the helicopter see you?
i mean why you not go outside?
I’m usually inside a building or a trailer
I'm inside my base and I'm trying to figure out if I should run to draw them away
But I'm tired so I don't want to leave my base
fight them all
I like optimizing my time, I don’t spend a long time fighting zeds

😥
well just sleep in your base
like what?
fighting zeds gets boring after awhile
what stuff?
4k hours and all i want to do is just live my life or sneak around
Instead of fighting zeds around the places I’m at, I just go directly to the place
4k hour of what?
zomboid lol
no single zombie kill?
Nah I kill when I need to
I’ll send my kill statistics when I get home, it’s VERY bipolar
why bipolar? where you at now?
weeks with no combat, days with a lot of combat
I’m on day 85 now I think 
i kind of like how b42 made long combat not feasible anymore
what mod to make that journal?
why not feasible?
