Mod Empyrion to have Zombies. Voila

Could you provide a screenshot example?

It is?!? Name one triple-A game that spent seven years in Alpha.

Look, don't get me wrong - I love the game. But I loved it just as much 3 years ago. A little polish at that point and it's at least ready for Beta.

What I suspect is that the game did so well as an early access release the d...

Oh, almost forgot.....
What is the difference between a Voxel game, and all the other games I play?[community.7daystodie.com]

Game is still being developed. Also it's a fully 3D Voxel game. If you put graphics that would compare with newer AAA titles designed for 4k screens in it, the minimum spec to play would be a R9-3950x or better, 64GB RAM, and a RTX 3090 TI.

7 years of development is right in line with the norm for AAA titles with larger development teams. The difference is that you've been able to play since Day 1 of Alpha instead of not even seeing it at CES until after they are in Beta and have a solid release window.

All those things from the kickstarter will be in the game when it is finished. If you can't wait for that, go do something else.

We literally JUST had a thread on this that is active as of yesterday....

Yes, a number of people have made this mistake. And yes, It will tear down everything and restore the POI to it's original condition- All removed blocks replaced, all added blocks removed.

If you ever get a quest to the POI your base is in, just follow this simple rule:

Do NOT Interact With The Exclamation Point.
The POI is only reset upon activation of the quest by activating the exclamation marker at the quest location. You can always abandon a quest after accepting it but before activating it if it's for your base.


Also, Place a land claim and bed roll in your chosen base, and it should never get selected for a quest to begin with. The land claim is particularly important.

Another strong possibility is improperly updating from A18 or before to A19.X. This has been the cause of the no trader bug for many people.

Follow the steps outlined here to do a full proper clean reinstall/update, and see if the issue persists.

Erm, Where did you get the idea that it is rated Teen? The official rating on ESRB.org is Mature.

why??

Nudity. Many YouTuber's stream this game and don't want to be demonitized every time a stripper comes on the screen. There are also women and parents who play this game, that object to their children seeing nudity and objectifying women.

Well, no.. It was primarily replaced because Stripper zombies just don't fit in most of the POI's in the game; Party girls you might expect to find at just about ... Read more

Originally posted by Kra3h: i always wonder what you guys do at night? my first base is always near an ore.

For me night time is when I hit the POI's. During the day is when I do my building. Mining can happen any time, but I usually don't bother with it until after the second week when I've got a basic base started.

Originally posted by Jolly: Pressure plate cost the most... that's strange

Pressure plate is spam craftable. The air filter mine however you cannot craft the Air Filter part, so it is the most expensive to craft and obtain any given quantity of them by far.

Arranged in order of least to most damage, Also keep in mind that this comment is included in the XML file by the Entity Damage value"":


Pressure Plate Mine:





Candy Tin:





Cooking Pot:





Hub Cap:





Air filter:





Edit: and yes, The air filter does the most. The Air Filter Landmine does so much damage that you cannot survive it even with maxed steel armor and a level 100+ character (EG: 200 hp and as much armor value as you can get.)

Hm, It's odd that it doesn't show the damage stats...probably the block properties take priority since it's placable. Possibly a bug, I'll look into that.

Regarding the damage however, give me a moment and I'll pull up the values from the XML for ya.

any ideas?

there's more than 1 map correct? any fav

My first tip would be to read all the threads where everyone else has asked this same question over the past month or so.

Literally, it's a regular topic. Take some time to explore for an answer before you ask a question.

Originally posted by Sapherno11: Game's not hard, but literally EVERY TIME I've died, its been exploring areas, when there's a larger group of zombies, during the middle of the day, that ALL start sprinting out of the blue.

Solo I can handle a group of 10+, but NOT when they sprint like its the damn blood moon. Is there a set pattern for when this happens, or am I missing something?

There is a "rage mode" where they will randomly start running at you after taking damage. Aside from that, there is no vanilla mechanic that would cause an entire group to start sprinting.

And always drink a tea before you eat.

SI isn’t on (at least by default) in the prefab editor. When a player disturbs some random, seemingly unimportant block in a POI and there’s a significant collapse, it’s probably because SI is being calculated in that chunk for the first time. So it’s possible support poles you see in a POI really are unsupported.

Here is what you stated.

It’s funny, I’ve been using those diagonal support poles occasionally in prefab building, but by chance they’ve always been next to a wall or something to hold them up.

You’re right, they can’t support each other. Their status as “support” poles is more for aesthetics. Triangular structures in general that look strong aren’t in this game, due to how the structural integrity system is a simpler approximation of real life physics.

You can still use a support pole to help distribute the load on an L shape, though:
