Yeah, I went to collapes that and it didnt comedown until I had completely taken out the entire bottom row of supports. Same with the barn itself. Guy I was playing with and myself spent a whole in game night and into the next morning taking that barn down.....we had to completely take down every single 1st layer brick before it came down....
Pre-existing POI's are a bit special; They have a flag to ignore stability updates to a greater or lesser extent so that buildings that could not otherwise exist are able to be created and loaded into a world. Typically this means you must remove eve... Read more

Sounds cool, though that might be a lot of data to either record the videos, or the gamestates so the scene could be recreated... moreso for some players than others. :cozyroe::cozycastondeath:

That’s the perfect question for our Modding sub-forum. I’ll move your thread there.

Why are you replying to a 6 year old thread? Never mind, don’t answer that. Thread closed.

First, 208E 384N of what map? Navezgane? One of the pregen maps? A RWG map?

Second, Structural integrity in 7DTD is, at it's core, A function of Available Support vs Current Weight. If Weight ever exceeds Available Support, a collapse is initiated, and the conditions surrounding it can lead to it propagating, or only collapsing a few blocks; all depends on what collapses, where the collapsing blocks land, etc.

EG: A concrete block has a weight of 10, and a support of 120; So it can support 12 blocks of concrete from the measured point.

Every placable object and block in the game has a weight value. Zombies, players, and vehicles also have weight.

So you had a tower, You built it up, You filled it with more and more and more weight via upgrades and objects like the forge, work bench, probably farm plots, chests, storage crates and other blocks....and you broke the camels back with the addition of the chem station.

Calling it junk but not explaining why? It's easily abused? How exactly? It requires me to login with steam and prohibits duplicates on the same server?
All it requires is Steam login. You can make a bunch of accounts, log in, then vote for whatever server. The voting system is commonly abused in this way to ... Read more

POIs often get shuffled about as they're updated, or new ones are added to the game. Nav has come a long way since early days. They do try and squeeze one of each POI into the map.

Most of JaWoodle's stuff doesn't hold up long-term from what I've seen.

Didn't know that. I have been directed here by several servers I have played on. Is there an answer to the OP that doesn't involve a junk site?
Not really. I know a couple of people that have talked about starting one, but it's never really gone anywhere.

I mean look at the Steam review system. How often are titles... Read more

Originally posted by JimmyIowa: In addition to the mod slots as previously mentioned, the durability is usually an important factor in the early game.

The is the main reason for upgrades. Increased durability and less frequent use of repair kits.

The rest of the stats are somewhat random. You could get a Q4 that's better than a Q3, or maybe not. Are those three damage points of difference really going to break you in the long run? Not likely. If you weren't nitpicking numbers,... Read more

The Q2 does 43 block damage, the Q4 does 41 block damage.

However. Every mod slotted into an item increases certain relevant stats by 15% regardless of the effect of the mod. For pickaxes, the relevant stat is block damage.

The Q2 has 1 mod slot, and the Q4 has two mod slots.

So when modded out, the Q2 will do 49.45, and the Q4 will do 53.3.

Mod slots matter. A lower quality item may have better Initial stats, But the higher quality item has more mod slots and is almost always better or 'equal' to a lower quality item.. And being 'equal' to really isn't equal as it has beneficial effects from the additional mod(s).

A pickaxe for example, that Q4 could have a bunker buster and iron breaker which boost block damage to a particular type of material; So when mining while those are equipped, the Q4's pick will do 73.95 damage versus stone or iron, instead of 53.3.

Get a better CPU or read one of the several already active threads about performance.

Yes. There is no functional distinction between different types of beds. It just gets expensive to keep making a new fancy bed, if it keeps getting canceled by bedrolls you place later. But maybe you can pick up and replace the same fancy bed within your land claim - I haven’t tried in a while.

Uhm, The extra bed types that the player can craft do (or should) function as a 'bedroll' as one might expect from A17 onwards. However, Only your most recently placed bed object is counted as your home bedroll- If you make a double bed, and then later place a bedroll outside a quest POI so you respawn there in case you die, then your fancy bed at base will cease to be your functioning home bed.

Typing labels on the crates is a feature of the storage crates.

Unless it's changed again:

"The table saw can not be crafted and is no longer needed to craft any recipes"

is in the A19 release notes.
Aye.. The message you quoted was sent in A18, though. So. At the time, what I stated was valid. :)
