My FPS plummets in some outdoor areas even when I'm not moving into new areas of the map, or indeed doing anything but turning on the spot. It won't properly recover from this even when moving into a 'simple' scene. Going into the display settings and changing literally anything at all makes it...

*Taps barrel with hammer* Organs land in different time zones Well played, internet stranger

Building bases in single player is futile, mining and building is all you'll ever be doing. If you're alone it's more fun and more practical to stagger out of the remains of a POI in the morning, stick your shades on and ride off on your motorcycle. Stuff making concrete for 6 days.

Excellent idea, how remiss of me. Be sure to scrunch it up small enough that a large shard doesn't slice straight through your oesophagus and kill you in seconds. The tiny pieces of razor death should lacerate your innards on their way down and, if you're lucky, cause a catastrophic hemorrhage...

Now I'm just a little concerned

I've found a client-side workaround for this AI problem that could save the development team a huge amount of time that could be spent elsewhere; Start a game as normal - any difficulty setting will do.  Build a base as you normally would. The materials you use don't matter. Now, and I stress...

Have you tried other, less frustrating, ways to kill yourself? Based on what you're saying, I think falling from a great height and perforating your organs with your shattered femurs may be a bit too quick, but you might find the agony of drowning slowly more in line with what you're looking for?

I don't have anything new to bring to the table, indeed I'll be echoing some other posts, this just my 2c. The early game progression being slower is a good idea, it's good for the low tier weapons to be useful for longer, but I find it just way TOO slow. As an experienced player I'm cranking...

Excellent, gonna get me loads of those sweet sweet books.  *Laughs in Cartography*

"loot should be where it should be. Military loot in the bases. Civilian loot in the homes." My spidersense tells me you've never been to the United States.

That is absolutely amazing, it's super rare to see a breakdown of POIs. Thanks you, mysterious benefactor. Can I ask, what are your top 15/7 prefabs? 

Cheers guys. I guess I'll just use a motion sensor instead and let my wall of darts go totally tonto as soon as any zeds reach the blade traps. Not great for ammo, but hey ho

Couple of questions that I can't find already answered; Can I place trigger plates on spaces that the blades move over? Do darts firing through the blade spaces (not the centre square of the blade trap) damage the blade trap? Of course, I mean where the darts are firing at the same block...

Yes it is a pistol. As is an SMG. An AK 47, on the other hand, is a machine gun, and oh wait

I notice that zombies seem to smash through stuff much quicker when there's a bunch hitting the same block, but it doesn't look like additive damage. That is to say, three zombies seem to do much more than three times the damage of a single one. Is there a formula for this somewhere? My...
