7 Days To Die Dev Tracker

There were so many issues with the infinite map it wasn't even funny.

Bigger maps are planned, but infinite is likely not happening.

Thing is, Many people have little idea what to do in a sandbox, and have difficulty trying to make up their own goals or struggle to see 'the point' to the sandbox.

Trader quests give directions, an objective to complete, a goal. So, those many people gravitate towards quests, as it gives them something concrete to accomplish.

Im ok for punishing mechanics, but someone may not, so i think it would be nice to give the ability to change it

Well in the case of accidental destruction, you could just edit the time the bags stay alive to have a better chance to gather the items.

In the OP's actual issue (which is not destruction) it is not so easy to change. Starting a quest resets the entire POI. If you have placed anything in the area of the POI, it will be removed. You can't reset the POI, and at the same time say "oh but exclude this random container some guy placed".

I’m going to close this so that outdated information isn’t propagated. Please start new threads instead of resurrecting old ones.

In short, there are some safeguards in place in an effort to keep it from happening, and changing the behavior to prevent it altogether wouldn’t be simple. I’m sorry to hear that you lost your stuff, though.

I was thinking about this thread the last time I was doing a buried supplies quest. I noticed there was a block of dirt that was basically black. Many individual textures span more than one block (to reduce the appearance of tiling), and there are different terrain textures for more horizontal or vertical surfaces, at least in some biomes. It looked to me like an unlucky combination of shape & rotation resulted in the black block.

You could try the burnt forest biome as an alternative source of coal.

I am, personally. If my storage gets destroyed, it means I failed to place it in a safe location or that I failed to adequately protect the location. It's not as if it breaks at random for no reason at all.

On top of that, It doesn't disappear instantly, although it is somewhat quick. You can loot the little bag that drops and save some/all of your stuff depending on how full the container was.

This is my guess.

I have flown RL gyros and planes. my landing pad is about 5x5 on the top of my base. For a full run takeoff without using the drop I might need about 12 blocks. I land and takeoff from the helipad on the Shamway factory pretty regularly.

Every few weeks we get one of these threads from someone who thinks it's a helicopter.

The controls and flight mechanics are actually quite close to the real thing.

By default, the game renders the scene as many times a second as your hardware can produce. You're right that there's not much to render at the main menu, so you get a really high framerate instead. This might be different in Windows, but for me in macOS and in fullscreen, turning on the game's VSync setting in Video Settings -> Display keeps the framerate at the main menu sane. E.g. it doesn't run my GPU as hard as possible just because it can.

Until we get sleepwalkers (the perfect name for them, which I’m trademarking 😜), this mostly comes down to putting way more sleeper spawn points in the sleeper volumes than are needed, in each POI.

Yesterday they slashed all the gamestage achievements in half. So for example, the old gamestage 1000 achievement is now 500.

Since I have not logged in for Steam to track achievements on my account yet, you can see where there are some discrepancies in the amounts.

So the goal here used to be 1000, but is now 500. However my progress for the goal is listed as 720/1000.

Does this mean no hot tub streams from Joel? I'd settle for a beach stream tbh

Right after we see him eat his beard (forum in-joke).

Well this thread is going downhill quickly...

I have been wanting to ask you guys for a long time, and there is finally a topic where I think it will be ok to ask, but do you think the Pimps will make the entire block shape menu available at some point ?

If you don't know, I understand.
