Yes. The plan for A22 is to be much shorter than A21, which means there would be less room for 21.x updates.

I feel like the messiah factory is a pretty solid nod towards the fact that, in the event of an apocalypse, a place like a gun factory is probably going to be the FIRST place a LOT of survivors go. Throughout the whole factory there's just not a whole lot in the way of good loot/gun loot, but the loot at the end is one of the bigger ending loot stashes, iirc.

Solid amount of zombies to kill for exp too.

You need to be incredibly careful with SI ESPECIALLY when working top down.

The way it works makes it incredibly prone to cascading collapses; Because rubble counts as weight as well.

So if you modify the top of your build, and each floor of the build is built near the fringes of it's max load, not at but maybe 20-50 weight away, when the floor above suddenly collapses onto it, it goes WAY over, and ... Read more

Most people play private with friends. Game is designed for 8-player co-op with friends. It's not a MMORPG with 60+ slot servers.

Note that your loot stage also gets the same huge boost, making the wasteland very dangerous but very rewarding.

I am not aware of the issue, but playing a sound at the hips (the ragdoll root location) is no harder than at the entity position (controller ground position), it is a matter of finding all the places in code playing sounds on the entity and changing them all to account for ragdolls being on or making it always use the hips.
I made a ticket.

21.1 will have a variety of fixes. We put our changes in trunk which is the next version of the game (A22) and then branch some changes to the A21 project for building and testing.

Yesterday, I finished a loot console command that lets us loot a container x amount of times and logs results sorted by count/name/quality.

Command: loot container [name]

Hello survivors!


We are currently investigating several server issues that necessitate extensive logging of incoming and outgoing server traffic.


It will only be running for a week or two, so do not expect to play a long term game.

It is, but TellTale Games ♥♥♥♥♥♥ everyone over, so it's an obsolete Alpha version full of bugs that can't be updated. Later this year, or early 2024 you should see Alpha 22 drop to the consoles, and it will be updated in-line with the PC version. Cross-platform play is expected to be supported as well.

Yep. I fixed that one last week and should be in .1.

I also fixed that corpse heads were getting the head damage bonus when you were harvesting them.

Originally posted by KieSeyHow: What they NEED to do is fix the way the game stores data. Not sure if this was fixed but if save files are still that big, they have not fixed it yet. The game stores and logs all the items and blocks damaged as the player explores the map; for example the jeep hitting rocks and stray bullets damaging trees. What they should do, is items and blocks not completely destroyed, should reset after awhile, and the data be purged from the save file. This is how almost EVERY OTHER voxel-type game saves the game. These huge save files are practically begging for corruption when playing on public servers.
It's the nature of a Voxel game.

Also note that the primary reason for corruption on serv... Read more

I think it might depend on your seed or game name. Some worlds have lots of rain, some occasional, and some rarely ever.

It´s actually a limit by the unity engine. You can only have so many different blocks and/ or items, not quite sure if those are correlated. And if they wanna leave room for modders to add stuff they have to limit us in the vanilla game. Understandable and welcome because i want mods to be able to add st...

You get quite a bit of XP upgrading concrete to steel and placement mistakes are 1/2 as hard to fix.
