Build 42 Unstable Out Now

[vague trench]

wait what LOL thats great

wheres muh plankets , crochettteed blankets

[untold beacon]

im currently running around the back snice theres like 300 zombies coming down the stairs

[raw parcel]

dont choke on them though

[forest shore]

Another type of generator!

[vague trench]

lol nooo!!!

[raw parcel]

fuck this doesnt look like a 1993 genny

[polar plume]

I have a question, how would you gather drinkable water right now since to boil water from the river takes a while?

[harsh gate]

I looked into it. They dont Work. But they could 😄

[raw parcel]

Rainwater collection + campfire

[autumn pier]

Plumbing?

[raw parcel]

its not that time consuming

[polar plume]

what about rain collector + sink plumb?

[raw parcel]

if you have electricity you just use ovens on a timer

[autumn pier]

Yeah, but plumbing is way easier tbh

[vague trench]

i think water is pretty easy to get , im playing 12 months later and im not having any issues with water and i have no base yet just kind of roaming around places

[autumn pier]

And needs no power either (unless they changed it)

[raw parcel]

Plumbing is disabled

[autumn pier]

I see

[polar plume]

and dont need to boil it right cause the sink auto filters it

[raw parcel]

might just be commented out, didnt check the files

[polar plume]

oh fr??

[autumn pier]

They did say certain mechanics got disabled

[polar plume]

permanent?

[autumn pier]

No, just until they’re improved from what I’ve heard

[polar plume]

how you gather it?

[polar plume]

oh right

[autumn pier]

I imagine you’ll need to make pipes for plumbing now

[vague trench]

im in muldrag right nwo so just using sinks n stuff

[autumn pier]

Or connect them

[civic drum]

Shouldn't making pancakes need a whisk instead of a fork?

[quick temple]

Uuuuhhh

[forest shore]

Apparently rosewood got a massive expansion?

I think so anyway?

[civic drum]

I can't prepare pancakes even though I have all the needed items, it refuses to believe I have water:

[wet cargo]

you dont have watter

[heady field]

where can I find these patch note? is there any list somewhere

[wet cargo]

water

[autumn pier]

Should all be in the channel conveniently named #patchnotes
otherwise, check PZ news

[civic drum]

Look at the other screen shot, I have a full canteen, a bottle of water, and a bowl filled with water.

[chilly atlas]

1. bowl needs to be empty 2. u have water, but do u have 1L of water? idr how big those bottles r

[past spear]

is the only way for animals to die currently if they're killed by the player? (or the meta predator if you turn that on)

[wet cargo]

hunger and thirst also i think

[chilly atlas]

neglect also

[civic drum]

Yep, that was the problem. It had to be 1L from a single source. It couldn't be spread out among multiple sources.

[past spear]

would that mean that any animal not found by the player soon upon spawning would be dead?

[chilly atlas]

zombies ignore them, im guessing if u have that one option checked zombies might follow them (& scare the animals) but they wont interact

[heady field]

ok thanks, didnt notice we have one on the server lol

[chilly atlas]

there is probably some sort of system in place to make sure animals dont just die out in places uve never been to. my guess is that theyre fine if theyre not initialized

[past spear]

that does make sense

[forest shore]

Or maybe there isn't and domestic animals start spawning in the wild after x amount of time? (That's what I would guess)

[chilly atlas]

if there isnt a system in place, that would mean u would find dead animals if u visit a new place for the first time

[past spear]

that would make less sense and be less optimized in terms of performance

[past spear]

that would be pretty neat a couple of months in

[chilly atlas]

here & there yeah. itd be so spammy if it were 1:1 with the animal spawn rate tho

[remote bear]

What... is that block of fur??

[lament crow]

hay

[chilly atlas]

thats a salt lick

[lament crow]

The momma pig was hiding behind it, was one of those asthetic sprites- OH

[remote bear]

Salt lick??

[lament crow]

yeah thats a salt lick i was like "tf is that" at first aswell, honeslty not sure waht a salt lick is for pigs for anyways but i suppose its cool

[chilly atlas]

its a block of salt for animals to lick

[past spear]

i can tell you're city folk

[lament crow]

y

[past spear]

they need electrolytes too

[lament crow]

https://tenor.com/view/snoop-snoop-dogg-yep-gif-13994284496379788003

[chilly atlas]

cos uve never seen a salt lick im guessing

[past spear]

there's even salt licks in the woods here for deer and the like

[chilly atlas]

havent seen salt licks in the woods before

[past spear]

you're not rural folk unless you've licked a salt lick

[remote bear]

Cool farming details

But yes you're right. I'm no rural dude

[chilly atlas]

starting to think i might not be rural folk

[past spear]

bet you've never even tipped a cow

[remote bear]

I have seen one

Does that count?

[chilly atlas]

honestly i didnt know ppl actually did that 😭 ppl left cows alone where im from

cows r everywhere

[past spear]

took this while going cow tipping last year

[remote bear]

I have been around animals but never knew this stuff myself

[chilly atlas]

leave them alone 😭

[past spear]

they can get sick if they're not tipped for a while

[chilly atlas]

seriously?

[remote bear]

Are these what you'd call dairy cows?

[past spear]

no

[vague trench]

lmao

[chilly atlas]

leave them alone! 😭

[twilit cedar]

Hmm

[past spear]

dairy cows are rarely out in the pastures, waaaaay too much trouble to milk. if you see cows outside they're almost certainly gonna end up as steaks

[chilly atlas]

see i didnt know that either. which means someone out there ate a steak made of a cow who constantly ate my uncles garbage

[past spear]

there's a small time farmer nearby who has a couple cows and every winter they get moved into a barn right by the roadside in my village, i walk past them every day and they're very good girls

[remote bear]

Nooo 😭

[fallen inlet]

the cause maybe?

[blazing coral]

ducks are the cutest of all farm plants

[vague trench]

LOL

[remote bear]

I cant wait to do Animal Husbandry

[fallen inlet]

its a newspaper from the very beginning saying some "Mystery Illness" started in muldraugh

[past spear]

im not particularly interested but im starting to think it would be kinda fun to have a farm base and become self sufficient enough to rarely have to leave

[vague trench]

lol the skerit sauce started it!!

[forest shore]

I love how the game gives priority to every container EXCEPT gas cans when it comes to siphoning fuel.

[past spear]

living that hershel greene life

[forest shore]

Empty bottle? Yes. Cooking pot? Fill it! Gas can? Only if it's the only thing that's empty.

[severe prawn]

Why devs made "exhausted" moodle so freaky😭

[past spear]

would

[unkempt atlas]

Did you do this in B41? It gets kinda boring, you get tempted to go into town and fight zeds just to relieve the monotony.

[severe prawn]

same

[past spear]

i never did, i had a farm base but i didn't use the farm bit, just enjoyed being out in the middle of nowhere. id drive to town for supplies every day

[severe prawn]

but no way i have developed urges for moodle icons.

[spare breach]

marketing

[civic drum]

Hah! Went out on a day long scavenging run, the moment I get back into my house, the helicopter shows up.

[remote bear]

It will be a fun playstyle to keep me busy until b43 drops

[severe prawn]

Fan service in pz😭 Does it works on you? Do you have URGES developed to moodle icons?

[past spear]

imagine making a little smithy, too

[remote bear]

Exactlyyy

[past spear]

huge potential for when multiplayer comes around for b42

[severe prawn]

I spent 2 in game hours to lure away zombies from gas station and THEN heli shows up. Brutal.

[remote bear]

Combat is now just not just the only exciting thing

[past spear]

combat is also a lot tougher

and can be more easily avoided

[remote bear]

Yuh, I made a guide on it for peeps

[hardy fox]

Can I not level up carpentry without the tape anymore?

[past spear]

dismantling no longer gives xp

[hardy fox]

😢😢😢

[severe prawn]

You can craft and build to level up

[chilly atlas]

played too much sims 3

[severe prawn]

Does anybody knows if crowbar got changed?

[chilly atlas]

this is the moodlet u get from eating fried food

[spare breach]

when u outside and you smell the zombie corpses

[severe prawn]

WHAT THE FAK BRO

[chrome fable]

btw are masks finally functional in b42 now? as in they protect you from corpse sickness and make the effect slower

[chilly atlas]

oh that "Several people are typing..." was for me 😭

[chrome fable]

i heard some ppl say that they are

[civic drum]

Yes.

[chrome fable]

nice

[severe prawn]

What is the difrence beetwen "scared" and "panic" moodles?

[chilly atlas]

anxiety?

[severe prawn]

idk

[spare breach]

i mean either you're anxious or panicked, stress vs adrenaline im assuming

[chilly atlas]

in terms of like, game philosophy, stress is a long-term response & panic is a short-term response

[severe prawn]

arent stress has its own moodle

[spare breach]

thats the "scared" moodle you're talking about

"Terrified" is one of the stages for the stress moodle

[modest siren]

YOOOOO

[severe prawn]

b42 has both stress and scared moodles. I dont see a point. Or im tripping?

[jaunty gyro]

Unfortunately at the moment it only accepts one item as the source, so if none of te items is holding 1L it will not be accepted by the recipe.

[forest shore]

You know I'm coming back for those.

[spare breach]

then tell me more about those moodles

[unkempt atlas]

Speaking of which are all of your characters getting woken up by a random nightmare or something halfway through the first night? I had been scratched and thought I was turning, but it seems I was just having a bad dream

[civic drum]

No worries, will it register nearby sinks eventually?

[severe prawn]

what. Do you want their effects or something?

[unkempt atlas]

I mean I can't imagine why my character wouldn't sleep like a baby, entire world dead and turned to horrible monsters, there's no psychological stress going on is there?

[past spear]

stressed is anxiety, scared is panic

[civic drum]

On the flip side, no one's going to be expecting their TPS reports.

[past spear]

anxiety would be, for instance, from a smoker not smoking. panic is usually from seeing a bunch of zombies in front of you

[severe prawn]

and panic has its onw moodle aside from scared

[past spear]

higher tier maybe

[severe prawn]

do you want this game to be even harder?

[spare breach]

oh you were talking about the new moodle names
Is "scared" even used ingame? I know for sure "Angry" isn't, because we don't have any NPCs ingame

[civic drum]

Anyone know if the Insect Repellent is actually used for anything yet?

[severe prawn]

idk

[past spear]

oh right, could be for b43 when that comes around

[past spear]

imagine if they add a mechanic where you can get randomly bitten by mosquitoes and get infected with the knox virus that way

[spare breach]

shit mechanic

[severe prawn]

Tbh i dont think this new art style for moodles is bad. Its just diferent. We will get used to it

[past spear]

that too

[spare breach]

everything except that exhausted moodle

anime girl looking ahh

[past spear]

there's already, uhh, art of it

[spare breach]

amazing

[severe prawn]

i dont mind getting FREAKY from time to time

[severe prawn]

link in private messages RIGHT NOW

[chilly atlas]

i rly rly rly dont like the new bg color for moodles lmao

[past spear]

no

[chilly atlas]

i cant rly tell them apart easily

[severe prawn]

I can pray if you want

[past spear]

there's obviously also... art... of spiffo but that's to be expected

[severe prawn]

i have seen that already. But i need that moodle

wait

im not getting warned or banned for being a lil freaky, do i?

Im scared

[spare breach]

you keep using the f word and you will be

[winter imp]

has anyone checked the ||secret military base for a basement?||

[past spear]

the day dogs get added to zomboid will be a great day

[severe prawn]

I FOUND EXHAUSTED MOODLE ART. HELL YEAH

[dawn elm]

nice

[ornate parcel]

where is it

[severe prawn]

it gotta be filled to the brim with zombies

isnt it?

[raw parcel]

the scales of hunting are so scuffed. A full buck, which is about 70kg irl, takes 5 units of weight irl

and the whole body, once rendered (0 cooking skill), gives me 2000cals worth of food

those values have to be bugged right?

[severe prawn]

balance will be fixed. I think in a mounth or so

[raw parcel]

im suspecting a bug

[chilly atlas]

miniature buck

[wet timber]

until then, exploit it! walk around carrying 50 dead animals! consume them for their calories!

[raw parcel]

i did kill it with debug mode

[severe prawn]

report?

[raw parcel]

2000calories for a full carcass is nothing

a pound of meat is about 800cals irl

[chilly atlas]

yeah ur rly not coming out on top with that bug lol

[wet timber]

just means you need more buck

[raw parcel]

im not trying to minmax here

its just completely unreasonable, unimmersive

[wet cargo]

do you guys have any ideea on how you should get more chickens form eggs

[severe prawn]

arent project zomboid uses kilos?

[raw parcel]

it uses an arbitrary scale for weight

neither pounds nor kilos

[wet timber]

pretty sure PZ uses an arbitrary number to mix size and weight together

[raw parcel]

supposed to model both weight and volume of items

[severe prawn]

to me that scale acts pretty closesly to kilos

[raw parcel]

BOTH the volume and the mass of a carcass make it impossible to just carry it with your hands

[chilly atlas]

its more sposed to represent how easy it would be to carry

[raw parcel]

so the argument is moot

[chilly atlas]

notice how things get lighter when u hold them in ur hands

[wet timber]

and how much stuff you'd be able to carry alongside it

[raw parcel]

a fridge in zomboid is what, 35 units?

[chilly atlas]

40

[raw parcel]

yet a DEER is 5

[chilly atlas]

ur also sposed to be hardcapped at carrying 50 units

[wet timber]

maybe it's a gross, sickly, emaciated deer

[raw parcel]

when you render carcasses you typically do cut them up in several parts

[chilly atlas]

stop dissing the deer the deer did nothing wrong

[raw parcel]

you never carry the entire carcass

[wet timber]

the deer had to do something wrong to end up at 5 units

[raw parcel]

the deer obviously selected the fast metabolism trait

[chilly atlas]

u dont render them on the spot tho? arent u sposed to take them for transport then do all that?

[wet timber]

the deer is on keto

[autumn pier]

It’s funny how you can pick up an entire grown adult cow ngl

[raw parcel]

true

i guess you could just drag the carcass with grapple tech

[chilly atlas]

ooh

[raw parcel]

forgot about that

[chilly atlas]

thatd be pretty cool

[raw parcel]

in that case yeah itd be cool if you had to do it like IRL

drag it to the nearest road, get your truck

make it an effort for a lone guy

[vague trench]

wait what lol

[raw parcel]

so that then the mountain of flesh is justified

[vague trench]

pockit cows?!

[raw parcel]

bc ive seen raccoons that are heavier than this game's deer

[chilly atlas]

ive never seen raccoons

[autumn pier]

More of a mod question but imagine if we could extract bone from chopped off arms and limbs when the only cure updates for B42

[raw parcel]

the animals are so small too, the models

a cow is COW, its pretty big

like ok deers can look puny, but a cow is like 3x the weight of a deer

[chilly atlas]

ive never actually seen someone haul a cow before

[raw parcel]

ive seen it done with a forklift

[chilly atlas]

ive seen vid of ppl hauling deer but i dont think ppl just... haul cows

forklift sounds right LMAO

[jaunty gyro]

We want to, but no ETA on that.

[obtuse moon]

Let that sink in

[raw parcel]

i really hope its just temporary values

and not even close to finished product, because man

rest of the game is so much more realistic

[chilly atlas]

hard to imagine it stays like that unless its absolutely necessary for game balance

[raw parcel]

hunting in singleplayer should be at a minimum a whole day ordeal, and i think it justifies getting a fuckton of meat out of that

and you dont just "butcher a deer" in 10 minutes

most people cant even render their own shit, they take it to shops

[chilly atlas]

sounds like its going good overall, since all of this amounts to number adjustments

[raw parcel]

i mean i trust TIS devs to research these things etc, but ppl's perception of hunting is so fucked by RDR

that im running scared of it polluting my survival games

[chilly atlas]

rdr?

[raw parcel]

red dead redemption

[chilly atlas]

didnt know there was hunting in that

[raw parcel]

huge part of the game

it's fun too, im not bothered by the expediency with which it's handled as the game isnt really trying to be realistic

[forest shore]

Hunting is only implemented in its basic form right now, so a lot may change.

[chilly atlas]

rdr isnt a sim right? different balancing logic. a sim should be more realistic

[raw parcel]

yeah exactly

[ornate parcel]

I think just about everything new we see will change in some way compared to B42 stable release

being pessimistic about what we currently see in the very first unstable beta is wild (@butcher guy)

[honest wind]

My cool ass character

[forest shore]

Keep in mind that the only two skills that are fleshed out right now is pottery and blacksmithing. Judging by the fact I've seen what appear to be meat hooks, I suspect a full butcher system may be in the future.

As far as packing a deer out of the woods, I hope to see travois' in the future where we can pack it that way. Maybe assisted by a dog or horse. You could of course quarter it, or do a full clean and debone the deer on the spot, and just use a frame pack to pack it out.

[past spear]

i kinda wanna do a police officer or veteran build

[forest shore]

The new gunplay is really fun so I can't blame you

[past spear]

and melee is now kind of difficult

[frozen wyvern]

Yeah the new gunplay is way better than just firing in a direction

[past spear]

it would also give me a roleplay reason to know the whole map from the start

[frozen wyvern]

I gotta be honest it's hard for me to get into the crafting cuz I have no damn idea where to start

I know they said there wouldn't be any in game guides but I don't think that's a good thing

[past spear]

yooo fuel side indicator is in vanilla now???

[frozen wyvern]

For a system that complex a bit of explanation is needed imo

[forest shore]

Definitely has a learning curve but I think I got the hang of it.

[past spear]

i think knee pads are a bit too common because ive never not found them within 10 minutes since b42 came out

[lament star]

tbf alot of people who do mechanical work would have them

[vague trench]

yay!

[forest shore]

Any service driver has a pair of knee pads. Construction, mechanical work, electrical, pest control, even quite a few mobile mechanics have them.

[past spear]

might just be me but ive found them in every garage ive checked. they're more common tha hammers!

[frozen wyvern]

Not to mention some athletes

[forest shore]

Speaking of pest control, I haven't seen a pest control van yet. I hope that is a thing.

Live my day job out in game. 😂

[hollow mica]

did anyone find any rat poison?

[frozen wyvern]

I have

[vague trench]

yah

[ember elbow]

as well as the color indicator of condition on engine/battery, as well as a radio button

[hollow mica]

so... did you consume it?

[civic drum]

I like that vanilla has weapons related skill books now.

[flat parcel]

ждуноид 43 сезон

[ember elbow]

i know b42 will be a massive success because the first time i used my family car to go 90 mph down the highway and couldn't brake and turn off from hitting a family of rabbits, my heart was instantly shattered when i heard the impacts

[vague trench]

LOL

[past spear]

английский

[civic drum]

Saucepan doesn't count as saucepan:

[silent dragon]

I mean it is a beta

[flat parcel]

This is a joke from the Russian community

[ornate parcel]

this may sound weird, but what if you filled it with water

[radiant zinc]

тру

[past spear]

does the water have to be in the saucepan first

[frozen wyvern]

I mean you have an empty saucepan, not a saucepan🙄

[ornate parcel]

without the sauce it's just a pan 🗣️ 🗣️

[frozen wyvern]

Radically different items obv

[civic drum]

Saucepan still doesn't count as saucepan:

[silent dragon]

When will they add b42 tag search

[frozen wyvern]

Hehe the joy of a beta

[ornate parcel]

put sauce in the saucepan

[frozen wyvern]

Put the pan in the sauce

[civic drum]

I want to make sauce in the pan, not pan in the sauce.

[severe prawn]

What clothes and what conditions made "discomfort" moodle appear?

[ornate parcel]

idk I sorta just mentally filter it out cause it shows up constantly

[radiant zinc]

well there is many, but mostly armor

[severe prawn]

And what effects this moodle has?

[past spear]

there's a "discomfort" bar on clothing

[chilly atlas]

the b42 tag seems to be entirely steams issue, the tag exists but it also shows everything in it in the b41 tag too =_ =

[ember elbow]

mostly just stuff you put on extra for protection. you can look at the items of clothing for stats

[past spear]

you can see it on each article of clothing

[severe prawn]

Ohhhhh

[radiant zinc]

not sure

[civic drum]

So to make pasta, you need two cooking pots, one filled with water, and the other one empty.

[past spear]

just like real life

[forest shore]

Dirty or bloody clothes I think but the main one is respiratory/masks.

[civic drum]

You then need to empty the water into the other pot, which will then create a third pot, and fill the second pot with pasta and water.

[past spear]

bulletproof vests and knee pads too

[severe prawn]

Gotcha

[past spear]

don't forget to report that bug

[frozen wyvern]

What does discomfort do?

[civic drum]

As far as I can tell; bowl, pot, pan, and pot matter replication seems to be universal.

[radiant zinc]

Found this on Reddit

[past spear]

probably something like movement speed

[frozen wyvern]

Ah I see, makes sense. If I were to wear uncomfortable clothes for the rest of my waking days like we did in 41 I would also be upset haha

[ember elbow]

it's meant to make it so you can't just walk around with 100 armor on everything with zero penalty, without also making that penalty so harsh and intrusive that you feel like you're being punished for trying to defend yourself

[visual sand]

Are we returning to weekly thursdoids now that unstable is out or are we gonna be monthly for the foreseeable future?

[vague trench]

like wearing wet wool

[past spear]

this is gonna stop people just wearing meta clothes all game

[frozen wyvern]

I think that's honestly a great idea

[vague trench]

yah same lol

[frozen wyvern]

I wonder if you could just counteract it by chugging anti depressants tho lol

[vague trench]

like make you have to pick what you want to wear when you want to clear an area , kind of like you would irl

[ornate parcel]

what is this SORCERY 😭

[chilly atlas]

i think upsetting the meta is good. coming to realize ppl here think its bad

[visual trail]

nope, tried it no effect currently

[frozen wyvern]

People don't like change

[visual trail]

also muscle strain factor at max is way to OP

[past spear]

this is mostly it

[visual trail]

almost died last night

[past spear]

some stuff will need to be toned down like muscle strain but nothing they added is detrimental to the game, just to the meta

creating more viable ways to play the game is good

[visual sand]

I feel some of us need to go out back with a crowbar/shovel and swing it at a tree as hard as we can for a few hours and let us know how the arms feel after the ordeal

[radiant zinc]

when I got to Rosewood, the amount of zombies there was outrageous

[past spear]

muscle strain should probably accumulate at 60% base speed and be tied more strongly to strength and fitness

[visual trail]

proper multiplier for muscle strain is 0,5

[frozen wyvern]

stealth is now viable!

[visual sand]

Is it not already tied to strength? Or do you mean to also factor in fitness? But I do agree it happens a little fast but it feels appropriately at least for my character since I built it based off me (a toothpick)

[radiant zinc]

I'm afraid whats in Louisville

[visual sand]

Pain

[past spear]

strength has a tiny effect on muscle strain atm

it's almost entirely individual weapon skill

[radiant zinc]

Does somebody know what was added more precisely

[visual sand]

I get muscle strain in my leggies after squishing one watermelon (zombie)

I feel like I should be able to do at least 5 before it starts to hurt

[past spear]

you could have 8 strength and 8 short blunt but if you switch to short blade you'd be getting muscle strain REAL fast

[rocky crown]

I saw some people who couldn't even enter due to the amount of zombies

[frozen wyvern]

It's more that the zombie perception has been changed

[visual trail]

start with 0,5

[visual sand]

Yeah different weapons should definitely have different modifiers for strain

[vague trench]

yah if i plan on going there from the start i put starting pop low lol

[past spear]

tomorrow im starting a new game with 0.5 muscle strain in echo creek, ill have 2 weeks to explore

[past spear]

within the categories they don't really

[visual sand]

I think I'll buy 15 watermelons and send my research to The Indie Game Store so we can realistic muscle strain for stippy stompers

[past spear]

imo it should almost entirely be tied to general fitness and strength

[rocky crown]

I think I will save that for mid to endgame, I'm trying to explore the new areas first

[radiant zinc]

The optimization is very good, tested it today, 500 zeds and solid 60 fps

[past spear]

it makes more sense, you'd think the way to get rid of muscle strain long term would be to work out and get fit, not become skilled with one particular weapon

[raw parcel]

muscle strain is very related to what motion your body is used to, more so than pure strength

[visual sand]

I meant moreso swinging a hunting knife and stabbing 20 times would be easier on the body than 20 swings of a sledgehammer

[past spear]

swing

[raw parcel]

irl, that is

[past spear]

of course, but that's an extreme example

[visual sand]

But strength and fitness should play a role in determining it as well, not just one or the other

[raw parcel]

yeah true, the equation ought to be more complex than just correlation with weapon skill

[ember elbow]

i've played Neanderthal time transplants who only knew how to use a spear that was less resilient to change than some project zomboid players

[past spear]

and right now, the base value for all weapons is minor muscle strain after 6 swings

[visual sand]

That's fuckin' nuts

[past spear]

doesn't matter if it's a kitchen knife or a mallet

[radiant zinc]

Is it me being so unlucky and not being able to find any nail boxes, or has the chance of spawning been reduced?

[raw parcel]

hasnt been my experience but i use mostly short blunt

[past spear]

also, muscle strain can be caused by climbing (good)

[visual sand]

Oh that's just poggers

[past spear]

so 3 swings and 1 climb will give you muscle strain

[raw parcel]

tbh my main impediment to exploration is finding the damn lightswitches

[visual sand]

Making it so exhaustion isn't the only factor, to be clear, is based as fuck

[past spear]

they literally glow in the dark

[raw parcel]

huge hallways, one lightswitch

[vague trench]

im playing with just apoc on 12 months later, regular loot settings, and i have found a few boxes in garages n stuff

[past spear]

yeah, the horde kite chair meta is finally no longer viable

[raw parcel]

not always, and not practical in large rooms for commercial buildings

beats me why i cant just go to a switchboard and light up everything in the building

[radiant zinc]

im found only ONE in muldraugh

[dawn elm]

small combat until pain starts and then leave the area and rest then fight the zombies once you have the energy and no pain to fight again.

[radiant zinc]

thats crazy

[wet frost]

guys is that normal ?

[visual sand]

I got so sick of that style of play anyway. But I'm also so glad I went to my usual go-to (The Rusty Rifle) only to find it MUCH bigger than I remember and also MUCH more populated...

[raw parcel]

de quoi ?

[wet frost]

bah tu vois pas tout les zombies ?

[past spear]

you got a bug that turned your game to french

[ember elbow]

they just need to also implement the glowswitch tiles for lightswitches on south/east walls, can't see the glow part when they face away from you

[wet frost]

true

[raw parcel]

ah oui mdr

[visual sand]

So having to think on my feet again has been so fucking nice! I'm actively avoiding spoilers and just desperately clinging to life at this point, feels like a whole new game

[vague trench]

try the warehouse at all? might be some theres if last resort

[raw parcel]

t'es en rase campagne ? je connais pas la map

[wet frost]

ouais c'est la nouvelle

[past spear]

indeed

[raw parcel]

beats me then

[wet frost]

??

[radiant zinc]

yes that one box was only in Large warehouse, nothing in garages

[dawn elm]

having to leave curtains open during the day does add a nice touch to lighting system

[raw parcel]

aucune idée de si c'est normal je veux dire

did you use any firearm? shotgun?

[past spear]

do curtains on east facing windows still have the visual bug?

[wet frost]

bah ouais sa fais 8 fois que sa m'arrive

[wet frost]

no i dont

[raw parcel]

peut être une voiture sans pot d'échappement

[vague trench]

what about mccoys logging

[visual sand]

Can zombies see light now, btw? Like flashlights or house lights through open windows?

[radiant zinc]

didnt checked that one but will do

[vague trench]

yah id try there

[past spear]

they could see the latter already i believe

[raw parcel]

zombies never reacted to my turning on the lightswitch in build 42

[visual sand]

Iirc in 41 light switches just made "sound" to simulate that, they couldn't actually "see"

[past spear]

ah right

[raw parcel]

early B41 yeah

[radiant zinc]

i hope there isn't that many zombies

[ember elbow]

afaik they don't react to actual light still, they just see you easier when you're lit up compared to darkness

[raw parcel]

this was patched out i think after retanaru made a video on it

[visual sand]

I wanna try doing flashlight night loot runs to take advantage of the reduced visibility from zombies without light but I don't want them drawn to the torch

[vague trench]

lol i wish you the best of luck on your nailing endeavors!!

[radiant zinc]

thx

[hard hamlet]

How the fck does the new aiming system works ?

[past spear]

i also really appreciate that you can modify most of the changes they added with b42 in sandbox settings if you somehow really don't like muscle strain or something

[past spear]

point gun at zomboid and click

[hard hamlet]

Lmao i point at them and it feels like the bullets are avoiding them

[past spear]

you can still miss but the smaller the crosshair the more likely you are to hit

[ember elbow]

did you ever play with Advanced Trajectory Realistic Overhaul? it's basically halfway between that and previous vanilla. not as forgiving as the mod, but easier to use than previous vanilla. you'll still need to start with shotguns if you have aim 0

[visual sand]

Red circle means you're less likely to hit, green means good, just aim highlights are gone so you've only got the cross hair to work with

[past spear]

guns are way more useful at lower aiming levels than before

especially pistols

[visual sand]

Rifles? I have only used pistols and I've basically gotta put the barrel in their mouth to hit them

[radiant zinc]

Also, at this state of build, can you get iron or steel in a way other than just finding or casting from items?

[past spear]

im talking pistols, haven't tried a rifle yet

[visual sand]

At aiming level 3 I can't tell if it's a skill issue or the aim issue

[past spear]

do you walk while shooting

[visual sand]

Not when I want to hit things

[ember elbow]

......ok at aim 3 that might actually be a skill issue

[past spear]

there was a really funny bug at launch where shotguns didn't multi hit

[frozen wyvern]

I mean they still multi hit but it's far more situational now

It doesn't just choose 4 zombies in front of you anymore, it calculates where each shot would physically go now

[past spear]

according to predz they straight up didn't multi hit during the closed beta and right after release

[wooden ravine]

I have used both and the pistol is WAY more accurate

[radiant zinc]

Thats sad that you now cant level construction dismantling furniture

[frozen wyvern]

I'll be honest I have reservations about whatever that guy says lol

[past spear]

why's that

[frozen wyvern]

He seems like kinda a jackass to me

[ember elbow]

it's intended to prevent MP servers becoming scrap wood ghost towns where a week after start, everyone's already dismantled an Amazon rainforest's worth of trees to get carpentry 4 for rain barrels

it's the same thing for all dismantling now, but you get boosted exp returns for making stuff

[frozen wyvern]

There's a sandbox option to get dismantling xp if you want that again tho!

[glad pawn]

muldraugh is completely clear now

[gleaming perch]

Question, do you guys think that the machines from https://projectzomboid.com/blog/news/2023/08/the-connection-is-made/
will ever make it into the base game? They seem really nice and would be great for end game

[radiant zinc]

i hope they are

[gleaming perch]

same

[ember elbow]

i do think that something they specifically talked about adding into the game as a late-stage crafting process is added into the game

[frozen wyvern]

Probably! Remember that this initial beta is not feature complete (which is exciting!)

[gleaming perch]

"There’s no guarantee any of this will make it into B42, and likewise they are all built from random tiles that Turbs has nicked from our industrial sprite collection. This is all a part of testing the speed and simplicity of creating new machines – and from that underline how powerful the new system is."

[frozen wyvern]

We get to experience constant updates again now 🥳

[gleaming perch]

thats why im asking

[torpid knot]

Why does it take AGES to take out a god damn teddy bear out of a backpack... AND WHY DOES IT WEIGH 5 UNITS

[ember elbow]

"there's no guarantee any of this will make it into B42"
they're not stopping development after this

[radiant zinc]

thats nice feeling to have

[visual trail]

also depends on loot settings

[gleaming perch]

true

[radiant zinc]

default, all rare

[visual trail]

you will find somw

loot tables have changed also loot spawns

[frozen wyvern]

I've found a few already

[vague trench]

[visual trail]

same but you were the one that spotted that small notification light on the switch

months ago in a thursdoid

[ember elbow]

spot the light switch (-:

[frozen wyvern]

Also I'm glad to report that even after 300 hours the goddamn jumpscare sound effect still gets me every singlentime

[radiant zinc]

its pain when they turned away from camera

[vague trench]

yah but im playin 12 months later lol

[visual trail]

first time I ended up in a room pitch black, saw the switch....I yelled puppeeeeers !!!

I remembered that convo

[vague trench]

lol

[glacial cape]

When I first started I got scared by my own voice because I fat fingered Q 💀

[frozen wyvern]

I did too lmao

[vague trench]

man i always hit that damn button

[frozen wyvern]

There put that button there on purpose and I refuse to change it

[radiant zinc]

HEY!!!

[vague trench]

yeah same lol cause its very helpful

[frozen wyvern]

I feel like a lot of people threw a stink about player voices but I found them to be very non obtrusive

[glacial cape]

Yeah agreed

[frozen wyvern]

However hearing my character breathe still makes me think there's a zombie right outside the window lol

[radiant zinc]

yeah

[vague trench]

i love my chars lil voice , casey jo 4 life!

[wet timber]

I like the voices. They're vague and customizable enough that they provide immersion without deciding my character's entire personality

[autumn pier]

If you think pressing Q by itself is bad, try doing it while you’re in a car

[glacial cape]

I guess an option to disable it in the character creation would be nice for people who don't want it

[opaque schooner]

Where’s everyone basing so far?

[glacial cape]

Fallas Lake farm

[frozen wyvern]

Yea I think they forgot to include that option since they said they would lol

[autumn pier]

Wilderness

[radiant zinc]

had that one moment yesterday

[opaque schooner]

What’s it got?

[frozen wyvern]

I've been mostly messing around first so I haven't made a proper base yet!

Hey can anyone tell me how to make a campfire now? The survival section of the crafting menu doesn't have it

[pallid hinge]

Nope! Still alive

OHHHH thank you

anyone else notice keys have weight now? and our ring has a limit?

have you reached late crafting ?

[hallow sail]

anyone else worried about farm animals dying out before being ready to actually care for any?

[visual trail]

I mean pottery and smithing

[frozen wyvern]

I think if they run out of food and water they'll start wandering, but I can't say for sure

[hallow sail]

i'm scared my world will be ruined, yk?

[torn elk]

Am I the only one who feels like zombies don't respond to "Q" pretty much at all when you're crouching?

[frozen wyvern]

Become God and summon a bajillion pigs

[visual trail]

they will leave the zone if they are thirsty and hungry

[hallow sail]

so at some point they just become wild?

[visual trail]

if it's not fenced

[hallow sail]

So you're saying i need to start getting rid of fences 😛

[visual trail]

the are still domestic but they will.move to the next zone

[ember elbow]

zombie hearing was noticeably tuned this update, you actually have to be in whisper range for it and they'll notice less

[pallid hinge]

I like that the popsicles have a model when you eat it 🙃

[hallow sail]

i heard earlier in here that zombies don't really attack cattle

[radiant zinc]

would be cool if after sometime fences start to get broken

[severe prawn]

Were explosive devices changed? Can pipe bomb kill someone now?

[glacial cape]

crisps/chips having a eating animation was great

[visual trail]

they don't attack any animal

[pallid hinge]

so good!

[torn elk]

thanks, yeah it feels like I can be like right behind them and they won't notice. I'll probably just extend it in the settings.

[hallow sail]

so you're saying i should be able to still find animals like a month down the line in game

[forest shore]

Hearing is also random by default

[visual sand]

At what range?

[visual trail]

yes but depends on animals stats decrease etc

[visual sand]

I had a pretty big cross hair with a red circle about 5 or 6 tiles away with no negative moodles

[hallow sail]

Okay. i'll just try to open as many animal pens as i can so i can try to keep them alive

[autumn pier]

Btw, discarding items in search mode no longer gives foraging xp points

[visual trail]

nope

[pallid hinge]

oof good to know

[autumn pier]

Would have been nice to know since I got rid of a branch, but they’re everywhere so it’s a nonissue

[dim halo]

Awww )=

[visual trail]

also atm foraging / initial crafting is a bit akward

[pallid hinge]

so you have to pick them up and then toss it

[vague trench]

who needs an motion tracking system when you has rats!

[autumn pier]

I suppose

Yeah, picking up does give xp

[hallow sail]

is using a sleeping bag on the side of the road safe? or will i get jumped in the night by a zombie event

[pallid hinge]

Guess it depends on where you are lol

[hallow sail]

shit thats a scary possibility

[visual trail]

like you have to bring a chopping block or table atm to smash a large stone and the chopping block can't be moved so everytime you find a large stone you need to make a chopping block / table next to it

[vague trench]

i would go more into the woods if you can so youre covered

[hallow sail]

smart. i'll put that in the back of my head

[autumn pier]

Quick question, do guides count as being creative work?

Wanna pop my guide into #creativity, but unsure if it's correct.

I mean like, as long as put a lot of effort into it right?

[opaque schooner]

Yeah man, at least I think so

[vague trench]

i dont have a sleeping bag but can you the bag in the tent thing box?

[heady field]

OOOH

I didnt notice its act like storage

[vague trench]

thats cool i wasnt sure if that would work lol awesome !

[thin pendant]

because it literally is tho

[vague trench]

no we arent starting that topic again lol

[autumn pier]

Well, well, well

[thin pendant]

i found a rabbit paw literally in the house i first spawned into

[wet timber]

being able to take tents and sleeping bags along with you is a cool addition

[thin pendant]

for sure, there's no point in denying the truth

[vague trench]

yah i used a sleeping bag but it had poor sleeping thingie so thats pretty cool tents will help

[cunning turtle]

The truth will set you free

[heady field]

I also found this in front of my house, does it mean the house is empty?

maybe like annotated map but for empty house

[cunning turtle]

Check it

I have a Ryzen 5 5600g, gameplay was fine, but i would get a blue screen after a while playing

that issue ram

16 GB ram

i mean in game had issue ram

[echo lynx]

Ram is not the issue, trust me

hmmm, so, is there a way to fix it?

[tawny orbit]

[echo lynx]

[tawny orbit]

[echo lynx]

[raw parcel]

theres a whitelist for blendable fluids, blood is in it

[tawny orbit]

im not good code lol

[raw parcel]

it doesnt do anything

look, water properties here:

[tawny orbit]

oh 20

[raw parcel]

you can see it has a thirstChange value of -20

fluid Blood has no such value defined, so it's 0

[tawny orbit]

ah

[raw parcel]

heres all the possible properties of any fluid you can ingest

a lot of them arent used in any fluid yet, but modders can use them

[cunning turtle]

I just think about protein shake lol

[raw parcel]

you can make a magic potion that restores endurance

[tawny orbit]

[echo lynx]

F Bull Ben

[tawny orbit]

[hearty pond]

Oh, ramps are already in the build?

[tawny orbit]

double head

[hearty pond]

yeah just started with the debug tool and saw you can place em with debug already

[cunning turtle]

Yeah

[raw parcel]

theres some really spooky sound effects idk how youd encounter ingame

[short briar]

Why spongie open jackets hasn't been implemented in the base game? Easily one of the best mods out there

[raw parcel]

weird creepy whispers

[buoyant briar]

@formal mango As a fellow Software Engineer, I wanted to congratulate you on this masterpiece. Many people will badmouth the game, but they have 0 idea of the blood and sweat behind the scenes!

[echo lynx]

isnt it used like when you crounch and press Q?

[pallid hinge]

The only way to get through to this bedroom is through the bathroom

[raw parcel]

no

theyre much more spoopy

[unborn thorn]

Yeah I saw that in game as well

[hasty dagger]

anyone figured out how to make tea?

[echo lynx]

"insane", maybe depressed sounds?

[raw parcel]

its an ensuite bedroom

[raw parcel]

yeah could be

[cunning turtle]

Claps

[pallid hinge]

usually ensuites have a door to the bathroom + the normal door

[echo lynx]

imagine getting so sad that you start hallucinating

[raw parcel]

ensuite bathrooms yeah

but this is the oft forgotten variants, for those who value thrones above beds

[pallid hinge]

oh I see ensuite bedroom lol

I have not had enough coffee yet today

[fallen inlet]

interesting

[cunning turtle]

[unborn thorn]

Put it in a stew

[raw parcel]

man theres no easter eggs in the sound files, i wanted to get a .wav of the dev team singing or something

[vague trench]

it should squeak!

[echo lynx]

bro wtf is this nickname

[tawny orbit]

aw man i cant boil water poison in bucket with campfire

[short briar]

Do weapons have parts like melee weapons (Barrel, Stock, Upper Reciever etc..?)

[pallid hinge]

Anyone run into a bathroom horde yet?

[opaque schooner]

What is this

[tawny orbit]

@raw parcel can you find out how to breed animal?

[velvet egret]

not yet. I hope they didn’t remove them

[raw parcel]

ill try

[pallid hinge]

Same! However in apoc enviromental damage is on so likelyhood I will see one will be pretty remote as they would probably just break through doors

jackpot

[velvet egret]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/829831930773897286/831350202240860230/image0.gif

[heady field]

can u try to slice it? I found one yesterday but cant cut into small piece

[raw parcel]

im pretty sure breeding, or life cycles in general, are not implemented yet

[pallid hinge]

I have seen pizza cutters around but I haven't actually picked one up yet

[raw parcel]

i dont know how breeding would even work as zomboid playthroughs seldom last more than a year or two

and you need the better part of a year for chicken to grow mature enough

[pallid hinge]

They want them to last longer though, that is what this update is laying the groundwork for

[raw parcel]

yeah but still, youd basically only be able to raise chicken in an "acceptable" timeframe

unless you play on some super long term rp server

for single player at least

[pallid hinge]

Once human NPCs are in they will probably be able to take care of a lot of things for you and then run into factions that you can trade with ect

[raw parcel]

so itd turn into a sort of post post apocalypse rp

[pallid hinge]

yup

[raw parcel]

interesting

seems a bit ambitious

[pallid hinge]

I mean they are 13 years into development, gotta be ambitious

[static heart]

Damn, cement crafft need sand, multiplayer server's beaches will become so ugly when all the players will dig the sand

[raw parcel]

at this point you might as well model concrete erosion and rebar oxydizing

[pallid hinge]

🤣

[raw parcel]

so that buildings collapse after 50 years

[hearty pond]

i love the new debuggers

[pallid hinge]

I haven't even opened debug yet

[raw parcel]

ive only played in debug

zooming around the map, playing with mechanics

have to say aside from the caffeine oopsie there seems to be no outstanding major bug

[lament cedar]

wonder when build 42's multiplayer will be re added

[raw parcel]

so ill most likely play for real over the weekend when im home

[merry nest]

prolly in the final

[lilac sequoia]

Do you know where to find meat hook?

[ember elbow]

none of the "change sandbox options" mods updated for 42 yet i'm guessing?

[lament cedar]

final what? Final countdown?

[merry nest]

no dumbass final release

[raw parcel]

final 42 release

finalfinalfinaldonelast.docx

[merry nest]

if not a pre drop

[static heart]

how are we supposed to play full wilderness without a hand saw since you need it for the wood mold for the first furnace ?

[lament cedar]

that's gonna take a while won't it.

[merry nest]

ngl i kinda dig this overhaul on crafting

[velvet egret]

it likely will

[pallid hinge]

Honestly it doesn't feel like they need to add too much to get going towards stable release, except the things they have listed

[raw parcel]

they basically cut out all the feature creep to give us this beta, so yeah it could take anywhere from 2 to 4 months if you want my guess

[ember elbow]

no, not in vanilla. there are a few mods that existed for that, namely Coavins Firearms Repairs, but it's not updated yet

[pallid hinge]

like there are bugs yea but nothing too terrible, this is playing very nicely

[lament cedar]

sounds like an educated guess, so I'll take it

[raw parcel]

im a doctor you know

[merry nest]

i expect nothing less then a couple of touch ups and such... but then i would presume they will drop some minor updates of the things listed as time goes on...

[lament cedar]

now that the unstable is out I'm sure things will start running smoothly

[lament cedar]

doc I have ball cancer, how much longer do I have to live?

[ember elbow]

it'll still be a few months before b42 is considered "finalized" and they devote full resources to b43 for NPC's proper

[tawny orbit]

3 days

[raw parcel]

the only cure is sex change

[tawny orbit]

no way

[lament cedar]

ball cutting 😔

[pallid hinge]

yea for sure, like in B41's lifespan there was many massive changes throughout - this feels like most of that is done already
