    Just wait until the bandits discover the extremely advanced Wood Frame Technology.  :classic_ohmy: "%&#! THEY'RE NERDPOLING AFTER US! RUN!!!"

    I think they absolutely should be attracted to ladders if the ladder is a viable path to their target. Maybe a 2-high ladder (which is part of a complete path to the survivor) is close enough that their tiny little Z brains clump at the base of the wall and WWZ to the ladder, but 3-high is too...

    PC Thinking about buying 7 Days to Die

    To add to what Diragor said, if you ever get bored of the vanilla game, the modding community is very active, with 100s of mods and a few complete game overhauls available.  To your question about "will I have time to build defenses before the 7th day horde", that is to some extent dependent on...

    PC Advanced options are needed.

    I have no argument against TFP adding whatever dials, knobs, and sliders they want to the advanced options. More the merrier. But I'd like you to consider the possibility that, with each passing alpha, your skill might be increasing. The game is not being "dumbed down", you are being "smarted...

    I was today years old when I learned this.

    PC Multiplayer Bicycle Question

    That's weird. When you try to place the bicycle, do you see the bike, but it's colored red? I'm sure you've tried this, but placing the vehicles can be pretty finicky and you may have to move around to find a place where it can be placed (it will turn green). Roads are good. And you can't be...

    PC vehicle weapons discussion

    I would NEVER! I will have very harsh things to say to the modder who gives me air-bombing capability in the gyro. Very harsh things, indeed! I'm warning all you advanced modders...don't make that mod. Don't make me hurt you with my words.

    PC RWG and Parts Question

    Are you talking about weapon/armor/tool parts found in loot? I think that a POIs RWG seed is fixed now (busted cars will always be busted, kitchen cabinets will always be the same searchable/not-searchable, etc.), but the order of searching should still matter. So if you always search Cabinet A...

    PC Is there any point in the game stage where you're more likely to get a book from a bookshelf or stack?

    Boidster says, "somebody asked for knowledge and I happen to be able to provide it!" What they choose to do with it is up to them. I happen to think it's interesting to understand how TFP constructed the loot system. Perhaps others do too. We sure seem to get a lot of questions (and...

    PC Is there any point in the game stage where you're more likely to get a book from a bookshelf or stack?

    Bookshelves do have Lootstage-scaled results, so you would increase your chance of getting better books if you waited. But the chance for getting any book is not Lootstage-scaled. The game decides pretty early in the decision tree "Paper or Books?" and that decision is not based on Lootstage...

    PC Multiplayer Sad State of Affairs

    I do not think those numbers mean what you think they mean. The game got a surge for A20 (December '21) and has since reverted to the mean. ~30K active players is kinda where 7D2D lives most of the time. There is no massive exodus from the game.

    PC Blinking Journal Icon (anyway to turn it off)

    I got you: It's crude, but effective. You can still click on the icon's location to bring up the journal. In file windows.xml, change this:   <button pos="476,-21" name="Journal" sprite="ui_game_symbol_pen" tooltip_key="xuiJournal" style="press, hover, paging.window.icon" /> to this...

    PC It's all gone wrong, terribly wrong.
