B42-15-2 Vanilla - no zombies spawning

[bitter sinew]

I just updated my linux dedicated server to 15+ and wiped the mp save folder. Removed all mods for this update. It seems pretty broken. For starters I havent see any zombies and we have the server set to very high. Another player reported tile texture issues.

You may have a game install issue based on your description, can you try doing a full reinstall?
First, uninstall the game, then go to "Steam\steamapps\common\ProjectZomboid" and make sure there are no leftover files or folders there.
After that, go to “%UserProfile%\Zomboid” and delete everything there except the “Saves” folder.
Then just install the game again and see if that helps.

Alright, thanks, I'll give it a go next i can!

I cant do this

im in a linux dedicated server.

I tried deleting the .cache folder in its entirety but Its still not spawning zombies. I have it set to very high and in debug i saw like 17 zombies in one part of muldraugh

on the debug map.

TPed to the checkpoint outside of LV and it was empty.

reinstalling the game to the server.. asuming that's what the button that says reinstall server does from the provider lol

That also did not work.

The game has no .cache folder

Can you elaborate how you installed the server?

[bitter sinew]

It's through a provider.

I've not had this issue since getting this back in december.

[inland merlin]

I might suggest contacting the support of your server provider in that case, since there are not many things I can suggest with providers

Best I can say is doing a full wipe, your provider likely allows that

[bitter sinew]

Yeah they're working on nuking the server. I agree with you. something is fucky and abnormal.

[bitter sinew]

Well that didnt work so now he's saying it could be something from the update...

[inland merlin]

That is unlikely

Do you have any sort of custom server settings?

Try loading with just the defaults

[bitter sinew]

Idk we just did a full reinstall nothing was saved. They performed it. I just logged in remade the character and opened the zombie pop again. same thing.

[bitter sinew]

Agreed since i can play SP and hosted np

[inland merlin]

I assume this means the default settings were used? Can they specify how they install the latest update?

Since there is a process for it, it is not recommended to first install the server and then update it

But instead, directly install the update

[bitter sinew]

I figured it out and it was a me problem. Just been busy and when i was removing the mods i forgot to remove the first map call to a map i no longer had.
