7 Days To Die Dev Tracker

Information in this 8-year-old thread has become out of date over time, so we’ll close this thread to reduce confusion. If there’s an existing thread created during v1.0 or later, that’d be fine to add to.

Some threads that OP apparently missed before starting this thread.

The existing solution for saving space is to learn to bulk craft boxes of ammunition. Each box converts to 100 rounds when opened, and you can have a stack of many boxes. It's also more efficient to craft, requiring just 80% of the ingredients it would take to make individual rounds. I believe the recipes to craft boxes of ammunition are all unlocked by reading the corresponding set of books, like Pistol Pete for boxes of 9 mm bullets.

And it’s worth pointing out this improved chance is tailored to where you spend your skill points. Level 5 in archery will mean you find a lot more bow magazines, proportionally.

For something like a forge, buying one outright from a trader would be another option for players seeking an alternative to looting. Though personally, I preferred when forges and other stations in POIs had a ...

Originally posted by Raptor: Watched some videos about "Loot to Learn" because that's literally what it is. Old player here and it just kind of sucks because there is basically only one way to play this game anymore, and that's exactly the way the devs WANT you to play it.

I've tried playing it how I want, playing differently, but that always ends up with me dead because you are either forced to loot, or you try and stay in one spot and good luck fighting off a horde with a wooden club and spear. I personally never liked even going to the trader because it felt kind of lame and killed my immersion, so I ignore them, but that pretty much makes the game impossible now as you HAVE to do quests unless you want to forever loot nothing but ...

You need to hold still for a moment before the prompt appears, so that it’s not constantly annoying you while swimming. Also, the chance of dysentery isn’t 100%. It’s pretty low - maybe 15% from memory. So in my assessment, it’s worth the risk in cases where you’re at risk of dying from dehydration otherwise.

Excellent post, Ensign Toby.

Console can barely play the base game. It is not likely that mods will ever work.
I sincerely doubt that Sony and MS would approve it anyhow. Even if it were limited to server-side xml mods.

This is the 7 Days forum, so I really don’t want to derail your thread. But to anyone interested in the merger of 7 Days to Die + looks like a comic book, be aware there’s a game in development that’s as close to that as anyone could hope for.

It seems relevant enough to mention, but if that’s not something the OP wanted to discuss here, I’ll of course respect that.

Since the OP is asking about modding the game, I’ll move this to the Modding sub-forum. Though restrictions on who can join your server could also be part of the solution.

Project zomboid has bed sheet rope, thanks for the feedback

There are also ropes you can climb in some POIs. Unfortunately they aren’t craftable.

Originally posted by Brevan: They're fine for sure, but I did prefer when the writing was also written on the top and bottom since I usually used those boxes as my floor or roof.

This.
We should be able to rotate them sideways to see the text. It's make me completely change the way I do storage.

No, there’s no benefit. And you can’t boil multiple waters in parallel within one campfire, no matter how you configure it. A campfire cooks one thing at a time, in sequence, like other stations.
