    PC Alpha 18 Dev Diary!!

    I'm thinking of starting an official campaign to change the game title from "7 days to Die" to "7000 rolls of duct tape" I get it, duct tape is great stuff.. but damn I spend a significant portion of the game either farming tape, farming resources to make tape, or making tape.

    The customization ability and xml. modding really allows you to play exactly the way that is most fun for you. Personally I don't often 'attend' horde nights as there seems little point to it. XP is nice and all but easily gained elsewhere. If you just want to burn through ammo and kill stuff...

    Any chance of getting attached storage for crafting stations? maybe as an upgrade or just plain QoL. It makes sense to have to gather stuff up, but after the millionth time it's just tedious. Or modding function to address and manipulate the contents of a container. Modders can do it for...

    Damn, thought I found a way around the lack of OR gate in the electrical systems. Having to build two doors to trigger from inside and outside is a pain. Was hoping motion sensor could "see" through glass. No love. Electrical really needs a full set of logic gates. ... Minecraft... just sayin.

    Small request: On the ESC pause menu, can we get a RESUME button? I know it might seem dumb, but I have paused to go for a smoke and come back and hit EXIT more times than I'd like to admit.

    PC Alpha 18 Dev Diary!!

    I was running 17.4 on GTX 760 with med/high settings 2560x1440 34-45fps. Alpha 18 laughed at me and called me a scrub even at minimum settings 1920x1080. So I literally went out and bought a RTX 2070 super ($600.00 /w tax) the day it released and now I'm running max settings 4k and rarely...

    Is heat map still a thing? I am not generating screamers. 4 forges, cement mixer and chem station running.

    PC Any way to mitigate (remove/reduce) Death Trauma?

    I searched [death trauma] before posting, did not find that post. My apologies. And thank you for the link.

    As helpful, and logical as "don't die" might be. I think I'll mod in a difficult recipe for countermeasure. This way I keep the threat, but give a gameplay option as a solution.

    ^ see title. Meds? Food? something? Being crippled for a real life hour is too much. I get consequence, but basically stealing an irreplaceable hour of my life... no. just no. Please let me know, if there is not an in-game mechanic, I will just mod it out.
