We are already taking some artistic liberty merging the 7.62 calibers but using them in a 7.62x38 is pushing plausibility. =P

I'm not even sure what in the world you're talking about.

Try reading the Pinned threads and following instructions.

What are you even talking about?

Do you expect "just turrets" to do all the for for you while you watch? At no point was such a thing even suggested.

I don't think it says anywhere that it's supposed to be the cheapest. It's certainly the weapon with the most easily attained ammo type.


The damage of 2 turrets is in no way supposed to be equal to a maxed out T3 gun. That would be silly because it works in addition to the weapon you are holding - which can be anything.

2021 still an issue...
Because it's not an 'issue'. If the trader is closed, It teleports the player to a random location near the trader to prevent the player from using zombies or something to jump the wall and get inside. If it's closed, It's closed.

Locking the thread since it's rather old.

No, Navezgane is not that bad. I think many just get used to the minibikes fuel economy and then are upset when the bigger bulkier counterpart that goes faster and carries more consumes more fuel.

Also possible that they're mentally comparing their own actual vehicle IRL to this backyard built monstrosity that runs on a lawnmower engine that runs on crude homemade gasoline/old siphoned gasoline of questionable quality. "Well my car IRL gets 30-50 mpg, This thing that runs through it's fuel in 10km is ridiculous!"

Moved to the correct forum section. Read the Pinned Troubleshooting thread and follow the steps for excluding your client from security software.

Hopefully not, since it is a good feature to keep.

Punted in this case means not A20. Feral Sense has to do with the level that zombies can see and hear you, not blood moons or pathing. Feral sense at night for instance, would make them find you much easier, so if you go out at night, biome zeds will find you.

I was once tasked to write up a pitch document for a licensed game featuring a certain brand of dolls. Sure enough, throwing parties was pitched as a major feature of the game.

This is the first time I hear something like this and I have been modding games for many years. There's a few things I'd like to say to this..

Firstly I'd like to address the "stolen" part which goes with the "copied" part. Most mods are stolen or copied. One o...

Oh, it was funny the first time - not when people repeat the exact same joke over and over.


Not really.

The whole smelting materials into the forge (smelter) is a silly mechanic that is unnecessarily hard to understand because no smelter works that way IRL.

They do not store a huge quantity of 5 different materials internally.

You smelt something and then you have an output of material so the chem station setup would be a lot more realistic for it.


That changes nothing with the gameplay. You need fuel to turn raw ores and other smeltables into ingots.

Mod site. I recommend a look at that.

You can get help in the Nitrogen thread, in the Compo-pack thread, or in the prefabbers Discord.

I usually skip over the bicycle completely because by the time I have the materials to craft it, I've already unlocked the motorcycle and have those materials as well.

The only bonus for the truck for me, is to carry other players along. I may or may not bother to make one.

My primary mode of transpo is the gyro. Can land anywhere, and take off from nearly anywhere.

So gas lasts 10x longer.
Why is your answer to these threads always modding? It's not like gas is even a rare resource. There are at least two POI's that have gas in abundance, and barr... Read more

Not in all cases. It can make it so that they do not exist. They will even appear to exist for the quest, but when you go to the location, they are not actually there. Or maybe they are there, but spawned underneath the map so you can't get to them anyway.

Sylen, come on... what is this? Those are vanilla bugs. One sure ng bug is collapsing POIs

Sylen... why? Uh... A20, can't wait.
It does not work 'Better', It works 'Differently'. Better is subjective to the individual. What you consider to be 'better', I consider to be 'broken' because Nitrogen is riddled with issues from RWG's past like sudden terrain dropoffs and POI's on 40 block tall plateaus for no reason.

And yes; Some of the things Sylen listed are Vanilla bugs...He even stated as much. He also further elaborated that using Nitrogen exacerbates those issues on top of adding it's own issues to the mix; So just using N... Read more

List of current known issues with Nitrogen. You may or may not experience these. Some of them will appear immediately, and some only appear after you have played the map for a bit.

  • Missing traders / broken starter quest
  • Container lag or inability to open containers
  • chunk data errors causing chunks to reset, or prevents loading
  • Inability for POI's or biomes to spawn zeds
  • Corruption of the storage files for electricity and vehicles
That's just off the top of my head. I've been awake about 5 minutes, and haven't had coffee yet. There are probably a couple more.

A couple of these can happen in the Vanilla game as well, but the chances of them happening in Vanilla is significantly smaller than it is when using Nitrogen.

Nitrogen takes a lot of shortcuts to make maps as fast as it does. It's not as granular as the actual client when drawing the maps so you wi... Read more
