7 Days To Die Dev Tracker

I have seen that bug before. Hopefully the developers have an easy, reliable way to reproduce it. That'll be key to implementing a fix and verifying it works.

Yeah, they consider it. Have implemented some things that were in mods, and have even hired a couple of modders.

But something else to consider is the developers vision on how they want gameplay to be. Inventory management is one of the challenges. Also note that a lot of the "super stacking" mods tend to end up breaking data stored in your save, and run a real risk of making your game unplayable. Balance is not the only reason for some limitations.

Originally posted by JimmyIowa: I will partly agree with the OP. It would probably be a good change if the travel distance scaled with the quest tier. So Tier 1 missions were always <500m. Tier 2 < 750m. Up to tier 5 being any distance.

This actually is essentially how it is. Ish. At least in my experience. However, If there is no valid structure within range, it will then search a bigger area for an appropriate building to the tier.

For me, at least in most of my saves in A18 and A19, My first trader was typically within 200-400 of the quests it gave for T1, and within 1~km of T2, 1.5-2km from T3, etc.

Tier 5 is a crapshoot though, because there are very few of them on the map generally; You might have on... Read more

In my opinion... sure, if you’re willing to dump a bunch of points into Intellect and Grease Monkey, for something you’re only going to build once. Otherwise, you’re praying to RNGesus to find matching parts or schematics.

Originally posted by Orange Madness: I'm a sucker for Shotguns in any video game. The ability to have so much power within close range, high gib rate---for some games---, and capabilities to 1-2 shot entities or players is just a rush of dopamine. However, I have a few issue to bark about with the shotguns in this game.

• Strange Accuracy: Okay, now I understand that shotguns are meant to be inaccurate bullet spread based weapons and aren't sniper rifles, but the shotguns here make no sense with their spread. Three of my favorite shotguns in the game are---in order from greatest to least greatest---Pump, Blunderbuss, and the Auto. Now I can understand that the Blunderbuss is meant to be an early game gun, and it is meant to be trash, but the two guns I'd like to speak about are the Pump and Auto Shotguns. As strange as it is, using Iron Sights with the Pump---choke or no choke---makes it have l...

Indeed. I’ve made many a to-do list in a text editor outside the game, in addition to drafting base designs on graph paper.

From a technical perspective, journal notes from non-player characters are easy to do. You just write them up in the localization file, like the existing note from the Duke of Navezgane, and put the notes in various loot containers. Making them POI-specific is more difficult, but feasible if they really wanted to. In any case, the devs do intend to implement an actual story, however they plan to execute on it.

Well, that would explain a lot.
Whatever it is, it seems to be very effective.
This forum is much less of a dumpster fire than some of the other Steam forums.

I like to think so, but just as well that you say it instead of me. ... Read more

I don’t know, but perhaps it’s just gameplay logic to give you a much-needed reason to visit more biomes.

Short answer: wet concrete is not very strong.

Originally posted by Mardoin69: Love it!!! Now THIS is the kind of thing to add more challenge into game.....which is a debate in another topic. And, if A20 gets more random zombie's spawning into an area than what's currently happening with A19 then, yeah, would really beef up the challenge.

If they actually raise the zombie numbers, that negatively impacts performance. Instead, I see what they’re doing as going about it in a smarter way: using the zombies that are already there to full effect. It’s the same with the A19 feature where the respawn timer is zero in the wasteland: it gives you more zombies without technically putting more of them in the world at once.
