Iv built a cozy little cabain out in west point and im starting to realise a few issues
- Imma going to need to build some kind of a makeshift road cause damm its fucking up my tires
- I can use corpses to make fertilizer however i need to bulk bring over corpses and store then
- I Need a Piano
- I need more freezer space
So I found a plushie and Harvested a plant infected with what i suspect is devils something something
Alrighty so Heres the plan for Today, Clear out a chunk of forest area to hopefully be able to set up a few Things for the base that I porbably need
- A Proper Garage
- a Gate to keep the Pesky Zeds out (Were Pretending any wander down here
- An Actual Storage Facility (Priority Since I've Just been Keeping A lot of shit in my car and on the ground)
- Proper Bulk Food Storage
- Maybe Start Trapping to Diversify Food Sources
Before Pic for Reference
After
also in case anyone is worried i eated 2 hunger of raw fish
I Fully Harvested the Crops and got a total 94 Cabbages, I'm Thinking maybe i Over planted a bit
So just a check in for this run, and my biggest flex for this run so far is 0 first aid xp lmao
Life is going good, I've gotten another Popscicle Fridge, and finished the frame of the wall
Im now Safe X2 from the zombies that have yet to even touch my property
Heres a question if Im wanting to make a road to not have to deal with going back and forth on dirt destroying my car what should i make it out of?
wood floorz B)
boy i sure do wonder wher i could get wood
ah found some on your wall!
im taking your wood
imma fucking dissasemble your table
that unironically reminds me i need to restock the corpse bin
i doint have the recepie yet but ik i have a way to strip the meat from a corpse
Antique Collectors Weekly # 3
god dammit
Foot Fungus^2
Rip in shit bitch ass plant
Shits heating up in the plant fandom
and now this bitch is acting up for attention smh
Would NPK Fert Help? Im not to familiar with farming, I mainly just scavange so i dont know
na you use mildew spray and fly spray
5 units of the respective one should cure the plant
Jeezus
i mean you get 100 units from 5 cigarettes or a can or spoiled milk
imma be real ive been thinking farming is a fuck ton harder then it actually is ngl
Oh really? I just play with loot respawn on with an interval of like a year and scavenge
I might try farming now that b42 is out
honestly i find water a pain in the ass but from what im told you can get away with only watering them when you plant them, but like i also grinding to metalworking 5 on this file to specifically be auto to somewhat automate watering when i need to
yeah theyre from a mod called plumbing
granted you could also just like get a watering can and live near a water source
I guess it depends on whether you do a short term run ( ~1 year in game ) Versus A Long Term Run ( ~3+ Years in game )
from a scale of 1 ( Im not going to ) all the way to 10 ( Im a masochist )
Ill go with 8
Parts of it, Not The Whole One
Theres nothing in the corner with the flag atm and in the top corner theres a alchol shelf
I love it!
i wanted to go heavy for winter cabain vibes
What does that door next to the deer head go to?
Bathroom to the Right, Roof Access To the Left
Far better than I could do lol
Honestly iv got a few things i need opinions on if you dont mind?
whatcha think should be added between the bookshelf and mirror?
hmm
lemme think 1 second
vertical USA flag \
or
A like PHD you can steal from a doctors office
oh shit actually lemme try that rq
surgeon or doctor certificate?
Go doctor for the yellow/warm vibe I think it may blend better, than the surgeon due to it being a cold white
ooh wait
the doctor is kinda small
try both maybe?
maybe something full size would work better
Yeah
i Wish You Could Hang A Shotgun Vertically
Like It Would Be Perfect On That Wall If You Could
frrrrr
A flag like this would also work well I think
already tried
What was it?
move mirror where bookshelf was cause the lighting bug was kinda pissing me off
I didnt even notice the lighting bug
Slight tangent if you dont mind but I need an explanation for this
lets hear the issue?
bullet to the brain desiese
fr tho idk what the hell happened
But like as a tech nerd Ive been racking my brain for how it happened as I find It Fascinating
My man had a heart attack
actually i think you legit got crushed
How?
watch the moodles
Ok 1 sec
The Two Ticks On The Bones Were From Me Carrying A Gen Outside My base To Another Spot But I Do See How They Just Randomly Maxed Out
Wait
?
I Got More Tired When I Slept?
wait did you
Like By The Ingame Clock It Was Like 20 Min
oh shit you did
TF?
actually you think things somehow got thrown a negative number randomly?
IDK
Neg Int For The Players Health Or Some Other Meter?
for the benefits of sleep
Hmm
so instead of regaining the hp it fucking tanked it
I could be wrong, but sleep doesnt boost healing?
Same lol
i will ask tho wtf is the magic meter in the top right?
lmao imagion its just that
electrician skill
Its actually one of my fav mods cus its very similar to Oldschool Runescape
im sorry?
did you install an overhaul for electrician so big you need an on screen hud to track the xp?
No not at all
the mod just tells you what you gained xp for and how much. It does this for every skill
Gold Tier
but fr tho i say post it to the tech support see if they got any input
did you actually have a heart attack mod installed lmao?
THERES A MOD FOR THAT??
Idk
Ahhhh I Was Hopeful, Another Dreamed Crushed
I mean
It should be to hard make
Random num gen fire off at a random time if you get unlucky you have a fucking heart attack and die
6 lines max if you ignore all the var imports and DB interfacing ( If Online )
Actually I wonder how much shit you’d need to import for a pz mod
I always preferred to stick on the strick coding from scratch side so never dabbled with mods
Depending on if they have just a file of vars, then you could just run: from pz_resource_file import *
That’s fair
If you had to choose 1 language to code in, what would it be?
Call me insane but I think I used to enjoy Java the most
Better than PHP
I gotta go python, its just fun to do stuff in. The whole motto is easy to start, hard to master yknow
kk
Just to write a todo list
- Find a Piano
- Collect All Skill Books
- Stockpile Foods
- Build Roof Shit
- Find all the Plushies
- Survive till and through Winter
- Build a Garage
- Fishing Dock?
- Gain Weight
- More Sacks
- Gravel Road(?)
I’m sitting at the threshold of healthy and underweight and I don’t like how much it stresses me being there
lmao literally me irl
Weight gain is just annoying in pz
but also fun
So it took me a concerning amount of time this run to realize just eating fish is better for calories then a fish and cabbage stew
Also like I legit live next to a lake so fish abundant
what mod is the zombie composting from?
im actually not sure lemme see if i cant figure it out
More Traits
from what google is telling me yes
you have to read the antique collectors magazines though
I did some digging, there is an antique collector trait but I dont see it having zombie composting
it just gives you access to some weapons, might be wrong though
the mags
I will do some more digging. By the way your base is super cool, gonna start a similar run lol
thank you lol
hold on let me draw something up rq
heres the currently dumbed af down plans
Yellow is the road im about to start work on, and blue is the trapping area
I will say Though its concerningly Lonley out here like holy shit zomboids dont like coming here
true but it contributes to a thing I want to do so badly, get a truck loot a whole town and come back to a base thats safe
I dont know why but the idea of truck looting is driving me insane in a good way
i never said it was a bad thing but it is something to note lol
TRUEEEEE
yeah I know
655 storage my beloved
only issue, those trucks are so damn rare with autotsar's tuning atelier. Like why?
not bad, not bad at all
but I was thinking something more like "a trip across europe with a truck" kind of vehicle
ah going for an RV interior semitruck?
yeah
truck is my base for as long as I need it to, when I get back home I work on upgrading it, my base etc
nice nice
chances are I will die before getting to that
naaa I believe in you mate
with almost 80 hours in this game by record is 16 days
so probably will die before I get a truck haha
hey thats better then i was lol
Welp tmr morning itll be time for me to trek on down to the warehouse, hopefully im only gone for a day or two max
actually thinking about it i might stock up on corpses while im there as well, hopefully some rotton food for compose as well
I am starting to get a bit concerned for my wheels though Ill fix it once i can find replacement tires
YOOOO MY DUMBASS DID NOT FUCKIN REALISE YOU CAN JUST EMPTY SANDBAGS
they appear frequently in ware houses
the though apparently never occured to me that since you can just pick up some tiles in a bag that hey the sandbags are probs legit just that
anyways good news tho iv got 10 news, bad news i need to deal with a horde that made a fucking ambush point instead of swarming the building that just experienced a house alarm
what are the other 9?
cant you use that for a road? shouldn't damage your tires more than dirt
thats the plan
god i hate the occasional crashes
anywyas combat update atm: Holy shit am i so happy for the traits i got recently that boosts improvised durability, inc spear durability crit damage and base damage
gotta say, from the few times I have used a spear it is overpowered, especially on higher levels
so far +1 spear and this isnt even like half of the bitches im pretty sure
so far my go to weapon is crowbar with long blunt boost
after level 5 its mostly crits, and crowbar has a huge durability even from maintenance 0
might give spear a better chance
imma be real i started using spears this run and holy shit they are great
I see you have your priorities straight
new truck time!
i have to much shit in the trunkkkk
actually i kinda accept this as payment tbh
double oh
eh funnier tidbit it has keys in it already
looks so weird towing a vehicle with the same vehicle
i mean its not like i can really just pop out and grab some heavy duty parts
noooooo i had one from the same vehicle ffs
it fucking tapped the side barrier
ANYWAYS I GUESS IM DISMANTELING THE TRUCK HERE!!!
rip truck
oh wait nvm i fucking stored my car shit in the glove box
okie ig i might have to take an american solution
car crashes!!!
fuck it shit isnt working dissasemble here
nvm got it
welp iv got a fuck ton of shit i gotta do new thanks zomboids
I need your opinion. This is my build, should I maybe switch baseball for lucky?
i dont use lucky tbh
alr then
Alr time to dissasemble this shit
Welp good news yall I've got a shit ton of spare parts for my car now
The Construction of the Road has started
thank god for abundant gravel i can steal that doesnt look to outta place
fuck you ungravels your parking lot
So Good News The Path to the Main road is fucking Done
And now i should be able to just chill do a bit of easy tasks and hopefully gain some weight
Ok so tasks wise The fishing Dock seems the Least stamina consuming
*just realized shit is fucckin slanted so no good looking docs ):
alr
why are you mentioning that?
wrong channel, sorry!
ah gotcha
friendly note if you try B42 dont go to the 'shooting range' west of Echo Creek
its a giant ass building with (personal estimate) over 300 zeds
literal hell
Alrighty Ill keep that in mind but i dont plan on swapping to B42
Why is foliage allowed to spawn on player placed gravel tiles
It seems like I might be Detouring to B42 for a bit
im going to be real im not really a big fan of it
maybe im not giving it enough of a chance but it just doesnt feel right at all, maybe its me missing my mods who knows, Ill wait untill the stable release
I think there is a mod to remove foliage, although I don't know it's name
I assume you mean to stop it from growing on gravel?
eh fuck it imma just deal with it
Yeah but also to remove it
Since it's not asphalt it is realistic for grass to grow through it
thats already an existing option to just remove the grass
Oh don't know that
ah shit u right, maybe ill just slowly replace it all with concrete
Still under 100h :(
Started my playthrough yesterday. Got a crowbar on my first house, spawned next to the riverside school. It's looking good
oh yeah also iv got some new plans
What are they
go get some better looking clothing
Ah nice, anyways gotta go now
aight
Time to go fine some Hopefully Tactically Military clothing
Anyways time to goto the LV Checkpoint and see what i cant find there!
Ok so heres how the LV Checkpoint is palying out
- Loot everything that looks interesting
- Grab All Ammo
- Grab all Military Clothing (Cool Looking)
- Go Home
- Check Everything
Profit
Quick update as im leaving the check point
IM SEEING 300+ LBS OF PURE FUCKING PROFIT
Holy shit, just found a zombie with a military bulletproof vest, a sledgehammer and a welder mask
hell yeah
second sledgehammer wtf, in the time I have been playing this game I had only found one, and a katana..
and a military backpack..
katanas be great
Ok so Im looking for a bit of inspo but I've decided to make a weapons room, just to be able to get some shit out of the way and offload the like 300+ LBS of Military Gear off my truck
Im just not sure what do with this barrel since i need it here, Maybe I'lljust fill it manually, Maybe ill just carve a hole there
THESE DICKHEADS FUCKING AIRDOPPED TRASH ONTO ME TF??
legit dropped on my fucking house
istg im tempted to fucking noclip myself onto the water to pick them up
also theyre just jealous i looted their fucking dumbass checkpoint
So Update I have reached Spear 10 Finally
Holy shit the stretcher bed is fucking nice as hell
was it hard?
Na just took a hot minute it’s been about a month and a half overall and I’ve been using exclusively spears besides the odd hammer or crowbar kill
1 Month and 16 Days
how much is your xp mutiplier
lemme check rq
it took me 6000 kills to reach level 6 spear with maintence profession
2.5
insane pop?
Not as good as your loot run, but still pretty good early game
Good loot runs be subjective I see a chunk of food and that’s chill af
fair
I only have a van with a 130 cap, so i cant really grab to much sadly
but this also was just an inner town run so not bad
Fr what town?
Irvington, Part of B42
Ah gotcha I’m still on b41
stay there and wait for stable its better
if ur enjoying b41 theres no need to update i would say
im on b41 to
Fr I tried b42 and idk if it’s the lack of mods or stuff but everything just felt wrong so I quickly swapped back, I might pop back in to fuck with basements tho
B42 Is alot smoother imo but not as many mods
exactly
yes i didnt like it either , the moodles felt so wrong and the muscle fadigue i just cant
but other than that its cool , the graphis , the map etc
I like the idea of a lot of things but the game as a whole just feels off so wait I shall
Imma be real, not a fan of graphics
Granted I might just be so used to b41
Yeah
Stuff plays smoother though, like everything has loot spawns, like seats in the cars, new backpacks, crap ton of crafting, but also not many mods. Im still on the fence personally
Imma be real
I feel like I’m going to be a fucking sucker for basements
How’s farming, fishing, and pasture stuff?
I haven’t really heard shit about them
I have not messed with it yet, although i might want to cus of winter
Ill go mess with farming when i get back to base
Aight lmk
I’m taking a small break myself atm then imma go work on the second floor of my base
Oh btw my new base is in a basement If you wanna see it so you can get a feel for basements
@unborn prairiehow much mods u using?
A lot
Aight gimme 1 sec
In the third pic I forgot you cant microwave a metal pot lol
i think they didnt wanted to release b42 rn but the fans kept pressuring them
Literally did the same yesterday thank god I was carrying a fire extinguisher so damage was just one tile
My exact thoughts were why don’t I ever microwave my stew lmfao
Aren’t they easy asf to find?
I think they must have changed rates. Ive looted 18 some homes
I will go check restraunts tho
Damm unlucky
that is a really good idea
I'm Kinda concerned though, I have enough water, but I'm not comfortable with how much I have though
Build rain collectors
I have legit one rail collector and high thirst and I’ve got to much
Let’s not mention that I legit live next to a lake
But I don’t drink that fraggin water
but its got FLAVOR
Fair enough
I mean I do have Lemongrass on hand so I could chug the lake water hmmm
lmao
Alrighty its time to keep Building
oh yeah btw
also i definatly didnt fall off the second story of a building and somehow not die
like actually i dont fucking know how im alive without a broken leg or some shit
@crude knoll idk why but theres something deeply comicical about murdering anyonme that touches my massive gate and just imediatly dragging them into my base
Is it bc they damaged it?
i can grind their corpses into fertilizer or meat
but i do think its funny from an outside perspective like imagion your a zomboid and you just watched from friend bang on a gate, it opens and a spear instantly kills you, and then the murderer just picks up the body and carries them inside the walls
hahaha!
OH HELL YEAH
took me another ~15 houses
Put this one in the microwave as well
Fair
mmm Stir Fry Zombies In A Bowl using A Whisk
Oh btw, Ive made my decision between B41 And b42
In B42?
Ye
Yea I got some info for you lemme right it down real quick
bunch of seeds
slug repellent
backpacks for watering crops/ applying pesticides
Thats what I found so far
Backpacks for watering?
Yeah their called spray packs i think? I dont recall the name fully
I assume they just hold liquid?
Oh shit that’ll be useful
Plumbing
kk thanks!
Ok so its time to move all my guns and Military Stuff Up here and then get to doing some decorating
anyways for definatly no reason in paricular definatly not relationg to weight I am spending a bunch of time fishing
so iv realised something i really enjoy about the mod setup
alot of the items i really enjoy using are locked behind behind "tehcnically" Limited, like theres normally only a finite amount of metal, and twine, but some of the mods I have even if its not fast in the slightest theyre technically renewable and i really enjoy that
Like for example this recepie is entirely renewable, I can get twine from ripped sheets, and I can use the Worshop to get full metal sheets
so uh firing an LMG in westpoint has gotten me into a bit of a pickle
I may or may not of forgetten most guns arent viable till later aiming levels
so besides an unfortunate scratch to the neck I have come out of this mostly unscathed
Lucky, my dumbass already got a laceration to the foot and the left hand
Thought it was a bright idea to take 30 zombies at once
Honestly I’m kinda suprised my car wasn’t fucked to hell
Anyways when I hop back on I’m going to be looting the clothing stores for a bunch of their shelves
Or maybe I should grab metal shelves and the mannequin instead?
Why the mannequin?
Display an outfit or two
The issue I’m more having is if I wanna use metal shelves or proper clothing racks for clothing storage
The mannequins are non negotiable
I think proper clothing feels more cozy
Makes you think of life before the zomboids
So fun story the second floors sits more in the get shit done no matter the cost vibe
I am a sucker for those vibes
I’m going to be moving in a bunch of crafting supplies and storage
I’ve got a few work benches to put into the second floor
Then take whatever is easier
does irvington have guns
yk, Im finally back after a lot of rest and I've decided to start work on a garage since I'm going to be recovering from a neck wound for a while, and I dont really wanna risk it
actually maybe ill just chill tbh
i can just work on aiming skill and clear out everything surrounding my property
actually fuck it imma work on reloading
So I've made a bit of a dumbass descision because i need metal shelves and im being rewarded in many a weapons and thread
beware of 'low' population in B42
im aware
not b42
just sayin'
ok so iv figured out a fun thing with supply drops, they dont like spawning where its really conveniant for me
99% of the time this relates to deep as fuck in the ocean, however good news one actually spawned where i can grab it, bad news many many zomboids are there and im about to be tired somewhat soon
so 4 zombies show up at my base in like a month but one this one specific day a horde decided to come fuck with my base, They got a chunk of the wall and im going to have to replace a bunch of shit but eh nothing of value was really lsot so ill survive, I just have a lot of bodies to do away with which is going to be a minor (major) pain in the ass, but that is going to be a tomorrow issue cause fuck off not doing that rn
this is just a few of em
Honestly I’m most annoyed about the fraggin gate tbh
I’ll be digging a lot of graves soon
@unborn prairie what u think about this base project?
6x population with extremely rare loot
Red- watch towers
White- gates
Black- walls
So im gonna take some time until i can go there
because i need to clear the road
I think Im gonna maybe get some ammo to try to clear some of them more easily
The wall Is Rebuilt and its time to now deal with the corpses
welp i fell asleep for a while but, Im currently suffereing from corpse sickness so its time to just chill for abit
just about at the 2 month mark!
so im realising zomboids might be respawning
