New patch!

#

I am early!

#

Also, unsure if you're aware but sometimes when you stomp a zed as soon as you knock it over. It makes you unable to use your melee. Fixes when you unequip and reequip though

anyone always waking up at 2:40am? (SP new apocalypse mode)

steel drum
#

I do

#

oh wait you aren't talking about irl

mighty notch
#

lol

mighty notch
#

I'm highly suspicious it's a bug rn. gonna try other beds to see if it still happens

steel drum
mighty notch
#

slightly anxious because smoker. But it's not triggering the heartrate sound and high anxiety that comes with night terrors

#

it always happens at 2:40am, when I went to sleep a bit before it happened too so I got like 20 mins of sleep even being exhausted

#

could also be an alarm, but I don't hear any

#

it was, but again, never heard it

driving physics is also buggy

Another hotfix, let's goooo

craggy heart
#

As I understand, in order for zombies to destroy a tall wooden fence you need multiple zombies hitting it before it starts taking damage. The question is, how many are needed?

steel drum
#

if I recall correctly it is 20

#

for default

#

ah it is 25

#

hoping one day that is based on fence type

#

for example these metal ones should take far more than wood or chainlink

image.png
craggy heart
#

do the devs still listen to the modders wishlist forum thread?

#

we need a way to retrieve the exact coordinates of a ground item in lua

#

so that gun mods can replace the guns hanging on the walls in Stendo's with their own guns and properly put them in the same position

#

and so that algorithm will work for any ground-placed item, not just that specific case

pulsar raft
#

I'm pretty sure fences effectively have HP, and the zombies to damage is just when it starts to affect that HP

i aint got anything better to do right now, to testing i go

also if you want to be cheese you can remove all the tires from the towed vehicle

oh yea tires on the pickup weren't in the best shape

flat hornet
#

before i report any devs think this is a bug or intended, it looks like whatever mechanism to spawn keys allowed this one to spawn indoors

image.png
#

It almost looks like it uses some sort of line of sight thing to determine if the key can spawn there

tribal quail
flat hornet
#

yeah thats mainly why i put it here rather than a dedicated report on the website

tribal quail
#

True

steel drum
#

I have found them in houses as well on the ground, but I don't think it was infront of a window but I cannot recall

flat hornet
#

this is my first time ever seeing a ground key inside a building, which is why i thought it was significant

mortal heron
#

hope the devs add some animations to lever action rifle

#

as its so silly looking right now that someone made a mod for it

steel drum
#

They likely will, probably just wanted to get them into our hands so we would 1) stop questioning why they made the ammo changes last patch and 2) let us play around and give feedback with them while they finish rigging the animations

steel drum
#

this might be the first time I have ever seen this event on the main strip of muldraugh

image.png
flat hornet
#

The fact it can spawn there is incredible

pulsar raft
#

There's surprisingly little zombies for muldrough

flat hornet
#

yeah normal pop is pretty sparse early

steel drum
#

Start of day 8 and I haven't seen the heli yet, so I imagine it will be soon, haven't found the emergency channel yet.Hoping I get some sort of fight on my hands

#

Seems unlikely though

mighty notch
#

zombies tripping house alarms is default now in apocalypse. rn my world is 1 to 4 zombies roaming or 50

steel drum
#

it's glorious spiffo

mighty notch
#

I like it too, in fact that's how I played on sandbox. It's like a mini helicopter event

steel drum
#

same

#

it is always fun going to a new town and all the alarms start going off lol

#

absolute chaos

mighty notch
#

I went to refuel at the gas station and an alarm got tripped that caused zombies to cross from one side of the station to the other. made me panic a bit

#

cause the gas station itself was pretty empty of zeds

#

would be cool if police zeds with a megaphone had a chance to trigger the megaphone and pull other zeds to them. walking house alarm

steel drum
#

that would be pretty neat

#

I found the AEBS channel

i was awaiting a new hotfix by the morning but i was wrong....

#

But I think that's too early; it could also be within 3 hours.

#

😂

#

how is build 42 mp now of days

sweet sphinx
#

i hope they fix the lever action animation next patch, cowboy in the apocalypse is such a vibe

wet flume
#

i have not revisited since the launch of b42 mp

sweet sphinx
#

me neither, and im waiting for multilayer to be stable before i introduce some of my friends to zomboid

wet flume
#

my only reason i left it was due to desync

#

and just reverted back to 41

sweet sphinx
#

b41 also feels pretty unstable and outdated at this point to me at least so im kind of stuck in a limbo

#

b42 has so many useful and good features, now they just gotta polish them thats all

#

and so far they are doing a damn good job

#

but it is a huge update so its worth being patient

wet flume
#

how is the new mode with sprinters

#

they are gigachads for making that into the official mode

#

sprinter my beloved, i wonder what percent they are now

sweet sphinx
#

Wait sprinters are official now?

#

Holy fuck thats terrifying

wet flume
#

in one of the game modes yes

#

basically the new apocalypse mode has them now

#

Not in the new apocalypse but in another mode that I forget the name

#

About the new game modes, do we expect the length of day to differ between 1 hour and 1.5 hours?

#

Like, Apocalypse is 1.5 hours, but Extinction is 1 hour. Why not make both of them 1.5 hours?

wispy stirrup
#

Shorter day = harder

sharp arch
#

Apoc is what pz is supposed to be like

craggy heart
#

Hot take: Outbreak should have rare sprinters too

#

It's supposed to be quicker pace, right?

thorn flame
#

outbreak is supposed to be semi casual though
any percentage of sprinters makes the game way less casual cause they punish mistakes quickly with death

steel drum

#

anyone have any idea how much the reading speed boost is from the most recent patch?

Just so much harder to shake them since you gotta be out of line of sight for long enough for their memory/omnipresence to run out

Hello everyone. I just wanted to know if the character removing all their clothes and equipment is a recurring feature in this version. I'm ruling out the use of mods.

steel drum

#

Has smashing rear windows of some sedans not working been reported on yet? Changing up the code a little to force it results in the character positioning themselves further to the rear of the vehicle, which explains why it can't find the window part originally and breaks.

image.png
#

I want to guess this is because they're automating vehicle part area scripts for new vehicles, but that is so far out of reach and only a dream

flat hornet
#

i havent seen anyone mention it yet

#

been checking bug forums every so often

tribal quail
#

You'd think someone would report it, I don't play the game much, but some streamers complain about it

#

Anyways, here's a temp fix for those who do struggle with the bug (it does not fix the source of the bug being the part's area being off, it does what the screenshot shows instead)

If you guys want to be able to smash rear windows of cars again from the radial menu, I can paste in some code. The issue stems from the window part area on the vehicle being elsewhere lol, you'd see if you insert this and try it...

Find the ISVehicleMenu.lua file in media > lua > client > Vehicles > ISUI

Search for function ISVehicleMenu.showRadialMenuOutside(playerObj)

Scroll down to where you see the short window code, it's not a very long function.

Remove the entire block of all that window stuff.

Place the following within and at the end of if doorPart and doorPart:getDoor() and doorPart:getInventoryItem() then

            local windowPart = VehicleUtils.getChildWindow(doorPart)
            if windowPart then
                local window = windowPart:getWindow()
                if window:isHittable() then
                    menu:addSlice(getText("ContextMenu_Vehicle_Smashwindow",
                        getText("IGUI_VehiclePart" .. windowPart:getId())),
                        getTexture("media/ui/vehicles/vehicle_smash_window.png"),
                        ISVehiclePartMenu.onSmashWindow, playerObj, windowPart)
                end
            end

This does not fix the part area being off, the player will still wander to an odd spot to smash the window, but at least it works now.

#

Honestly, it should work like that in the vanilla code to begin with, windows cannot exist on a door that doesn't exist, so it should only run if there's a door and only depend on if the door exists, not if a close window exists.

bump the report! Sully told us to do that!

Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan

Report on latest as well if the issue persists

or I will do it if you don't want to

Please

ahh you just did

#

10 minutes agooo

tribal quail
#

I don't see why it needs to be rereported if it was never addressed

tribal quail
steel drum
#

bumping it brings it to the attention of the QA, letting them know it is still an issue

rustic wagon
#

Because we wouldn’t know if something else fixed it. If it’s not reported on the latest update there’s a good chance it has been fixed.

#

So we need people to let us know if things are still issues

tribal quail
#

I guess, but does leaving a comment "bump it" or does it need a new report?

afaik, Zombies can still break the back windows, and the ability to let players smash back windows is low prio atm -- if you have any beneficial gameplay-leaning reasons why players should be able to smash back windows, beyond "it's more consistent with front windows", please be sure to let us know, otherwise it's more something that we'd handle when we rework aspects of vehicles in earnest.

tribal quail
#

I'm pretty sure it's just the part's area that is a little off for some reason, so it's not too bad of a change

steel drum
#

yea I usually smash a back window or one less likely to be used by someone so if not back then passenger side

wraith topaz
#

Noted for the team -- thanks 🍻

steel drum
#

also can confirm back window can be broken by zombies

tribal quail
#

Yeah, ironically for the vehicle I showed you'd do the passenger side because it's a cop car

steel drum
#

seems like passenger side is filled with guns now drunk

tribal quail
#

Oh that's just the over 3x more guns change lol

steel drum
#

ok here is an interesting one

#

100%

steel drum
# steel drum ok here is an interesting one

if you go to the back window it doesn't show the smash ability, then you go to the front it will allow for smash for front, then you go to the back it will allow you to smash

tribal quail
#

Definitely a buggy bug

#

All these misc vehicle changes creating random bugs

I can go back in-game and look as well.

steel drum
tribal quail
#

I need to revalidate my files since I removed and added code to get that screenshot and forgot to undo it damnit

#

You can actually smash the rear vehicle window if you stand in that awkward spot, but it's definitely not at the door

steel drum
#

yea it seems to be only certain models

tribal quail
#

Happens with both "wagon" types (1 and 2), all "normal" cars (taxis and variants), all "modern" cars (01, 02, and variants), and the SUV

#

It does NOT happen with the 6 seater vans as expected since they use middle windows and not rear windows for some reason.

#

Not sure why they have middle windows and no rear windows, why specify middle lol

#

I also just realized the wagon is just the normal but with a different trunk, we definitely need a vehicle overhaul

# static fossil What about adding a tag like "unresolved" or "resolved"? Would that help or is c...

Unresolved and resolved tags would add a lot of extra admin work to the QA team who are already overworked sadly. And you would run into a lot of situations where we think the issue is resolved when it actually isn’t (chickenpocalypse) where they would mark it as resolved, and then the community would get upset. Also couldn’t rely on the community to self tag, so they’d be chasing down a bunch of old posts. And it’s also possible a fix to bug A might fix bug B, which they wouldn’t necessarily be aware of and then would be trying to replicate a bug which isn’t a bug anymore.

QA can be a nightmare profession. Maybe we can look at adding additional guidance to the forums letting people know that if a bug persists after an update to update their post letting us know. That might be the best middle ground

next step would be disable those and try again

backup your save though

I feel that Extinction mode isn't really that difficult. For veteran players, I think the previous Apocalypse mode in 42.14 was harder than the current Extinction mode. So, as they describe it, being the hardest mode for veterans, I don't think it really is for veterans unless they increase the difficulty even more in aspects that really need fixing.

flat hornet
#

why do you say that

#

other than reduced muscle strain, which, tbh wasnt that big of a deal to begin with for veteran players, its effectively the same as old apocalypse

#

and extinction has night sprinters, reduced loot across the board, all zombies have 300 hp, dragdown is increased

tribal quail
# flat hornet and extinction has night sprinters, reduced loot across the board, all zombies h...

6% night sprinters but day slow shamblers, reduced loot is still more than a few months into normal apocalypse (meaning a lot still for a hardcore experience), zombie health increase is more annoying than hard (fence fight or conga line as per usual), dragdown is only an issue with crawlers, you can double click water to auto drink (the disabled tooltip setting is pointless, who doesn't know where their water came from anyways?), increase to pop is only ~2-3x more, foraging rates getting set to poor is literally how apocalypse mode should be (foraging op), you can used the increased alarms chance to clear towns house by house if you loot quickly. The only thing that's actually noticeably harder than (or equal to) what hardcore "veterans" sandbox settings would have is helicopter sometimes, and less cars/gas; everything else is underwhelming for the description.

flat hornet
#

Yeah but the argument was its easier than apoc, but all of those things require increased effort, and it is definitely not easier than apocalypse

#

its not hard, by any definition, but what the other guy said was just being derisive to be derisive

tribal quail
#

Sure

#

I'm just severely disappointed

#

Also CDDA had too much loot and now it has more loot ffs

flat hornet

yeah i dont like the cdda changes tbh

I also do think increased health is the main difficulty increase of extinction, every zombie having on average 2x health and armor factor being higher combined with muscle strain isnt a joke, but I do wish it was 6% all time sprinters

#

It depends on where the devs want to go with the difficulty, extinction is quite hard for people who play the game casually but still know what they are doing, but its advertised as hard for veterans, which is why it seems underwhelming

#

if they keep it as "hard for veterans" they need some serious overhaul

#

but I think with some minor tweaks it works fine as "hard for the average experienced player"

The closest you can do is drop things and pick them up to bring them to the bottom of the list I believe

im pretty sure you can, i just tried it and never got poisoned when drinking directly from it

#

i have prone to illness perk too

tribal quail
#

It's still tainted and it literally tells you it's tainted before clicking drink

#

Tainted is tainted, there is no variation, sip on some gas and bleach and report back

#

Make sure to do that on your long term save

buoyant geyser
#

if you put it inside a bottle and drink it from the bottle, it poisons you

buoyant geyser

Then it's bugged

#

It literally says tainted, and istg if I go in game rn and test it and you're wrong

buoyant geyser
#

if so thats a very long term bug bc ive been drinking it directly from the river ever since b42 released

#

never once i lost a character because i got poisoned from drinking directly from the river

chrome field

There was a guy who tested the exact amount of bleach you can drink and live.

tribal quail
#

You can drink bleach in increments just like tainted water, I don't know how much though

#

Fuck guess I'm testing several things

it does say tainted, but i drank it from the river directly when i was coming to mccoy estate from riverside, 14 days later my character still as healthy as a bull

They're the exact same, bottle, river, whatever. THE PROBLEM? It doesn't matter unless you're insanely thirsty, so unless you chug down a pond of it, you're fine

I guess getting clean water doesn't matter anymore

Weak stomach barely made a dent btw, drink away

Doesn't it require some third party script that can't be installed via the workshop which is only on github? I think something like this should be in base game too but I don't know if this'll be as simple as the time RV remote functionality implementation was officially added from a workshop mod

#

I say all this with the assumption that there'll be some weird red tape given as I don't know how a scenario like this would even play out, so grill me if I'm wrong

Yes, it requires manual installation. That's why it would be nice to have it in base game because these mods are not fun to install

#

does using debug mode to get rid of a non-bite wound cause bugs?

#

I know there's an issue with using it to get rid of a bite specifically. But if it's not a bite and you don't have blood transmission on will it still bug or no?

sinful inlet
#

the bite problem is that people forget to remove the "isinfectedtag" sth like that its called, which will just keep on accumulating until your "death"

so the next time you get bit it remembers that you are at max infection and insta kills you

incorrect. There was a security vulnerability with mods on all versions of the game. It has been patched for 42.15.2 and 41.78.17

the other versions are not patched, and thus have been removed as they leave your system vulnerable
