Massively positive. Maybe 90%. You always get the 10% who liked whatever some other way.

would be pretty easy to add a "Bagsize small-medium-large." but i guess they have ideas, and to oppose the idea they have is bad.
I understand the micromanagment struggle of the game and I've been playing since Alpha 14 and enjoy spending 90% of my ...

My thoughts exactly. I thought it was a bug when I first saw that white glowing block in the hotbar next to the old lookin second hand 7 Days tools & weapons, we're accustomed to. That white glowing block ruins the visuals sticking out like a sore thumb. Why not make...

I mean....it literally is a helper block, though. It's a shape helper.

No. When the unstable experimental releases to the public later today, you will see latest_experimental as an option. You will choose that to download the unstable test version of a20.

Or you can just wait until it goes to Stable branch, and then you will get it when you are set to "None".

The current Stable is only added to the list when there is an experimental option newer than it available, and a new Stable release is pending.

Otherwise "None" is the current Stable branch always.

You're making the mistake of looking at the list of betas when...what you want is the "None" option. The latest stable is always to opt out of all betas- The beta list is used to store 'Old' versions, Like a19.1, 19.2, 19.3 etc; Or for the newest experimental version, like the soon to be A20.

The 'solid plywood' is subjective, It's still just a classic frame block. And if you really want the good ol wood frame nerd pole feel, well...The wooden frame of old is available as a shape to build with :P

And no, No more inventory slots. Part of the game is to pick and choose what you bring with you or back from your ventures- Or what to scrap to make space, or what to discard for that valuable item. You're not meant to have a billion disparate items in your inventory. :)

you are saying PZ update is releasing today?
They feel confident of their december estimate- But are still loosely considering it may be as late as january, based on the last thrusdoid.

Going to be busy for a while since there won't be word on the update for at least 8 more hours.

From what I understand the version of Alpha 20 that is dropping tomorrow requires you to opt into an optional experimental build of the game. Your currently existing save files wont be useable, but at the same time you can also not get the experimental build of alpha 20 and keep playing your existing save.

Following this up, I want to know if it's worth starting an experimental alpha 20 save tomorrow and if that save will persist into the actual alpha 20 release (at a later date)

While opted into experimental, we recommend wiping your saves and clearing out old game data in between builds. Any code can change in between experimental builds and the results can be... interesting.

Edit: As an exp. changes to a stable build - the build number should not change therefore you could continue that game.

We recommend wiping your saves every time there's an update in the early Alpha days.

Whether the streamers get to play it on the weekend or not, The Public release will not have EVER been on a weekend- You wouldn't have got it on a friday whether streamers did or not. If you want to complain further on this to... Read more

It currently does not just like going hunting or looting a POI does not guarantee finding food.


Multiple people have posted that it's a 50% chance. A chance means that it is not guaranteed.

In A19 you could farm and have exponential growth with 0 points invested. Now you need to have at least 1 point invested to make a profit.
