A16 - STARVATION Mod for A16

Performance issue, flickering

Hey everyone :D I have huge problem with flickerking with starvation 16.4, every 3 second, is relly anoying. I reinstall game/mod many time. This is not problem with my software i have i7(6/12), 16gb ram, 11gb graphic cart,win 10 PRO. I play well starvation 15, in it i dont have this problem. I can send a video when my problem is visible. Thanks for any help. Sorry for orthography,this is not my basic language.

 
Thanks for the info Kat. You also need Gauges to make Consoles which are needed for the small generator, iirc. ( i did not have a smith or mechanic at the time). Pretty sure it was for the generator. I was making a tons of things at the time tho.

 
I just trained my first pet, a dog, but at my home base it run immediately into the spikes and died. Is there any possibility to train pet's to not run into it? In this way pet's makes no sense. A Base without protection in Starvation is no way.

Yes this is true. The quest I'm talking about is actually the one for the small generator. I know they hold more fuel than the generator banks (1500 instead of 1000) and can be relocated, but I usually just spam the generator banks that are way cheaper to produce if I don't have gauges and then try to push for solar + battery banks as soon as possible.

totally missed your post earlier. You could build an underground tunnel connecting to your base far away from all spiked defenses.

Quest: Diesel Power

The Objektive is, to place a "small Generator". Its the 2nd Time in my 4th Run i am not able to fulfill this Quest. I have to place a "Small Generator". This objekt can be found by looting Containers, i know. But you can also craft it. So the Troubles starts.

To build this Item, you need:

- Metal frame

- small deposit

- mechanical Parts/small Motor

- copper

- console

Crafting Console & small deposit at "normal" Workbench, no problem.

Crafting Metal Frame at Big Anvil, no problem

Find Copper ... little Problem

Crafting the small generator ... not possible. At this Time i have the normal Workbench, the scientific workbench, the normal forge and the big forge. The info says the Item can be also crafted by a NPC ... that is be called by the Radio tower, that can be build if you have Electrical Energy, that you have if you can craft a small Generator.

I searched the Net about this Problem and have seen that i could build a Mill first (V-15) ... so the troubles expand. I can not build a mill or a boiler. The Icons says i have all the needet resources, but i have not the option to build. Trying to craft, theres a Book on the right Side, but its grey (not active). Why?

I cant build the Generator, cause i have no NPC, i have no NPC cause i have no Energy, i have no Energy cause i have no Generator ... thats confusing.

LOL I feel your pain!! We have this same problem with our pets and npcs... they seem to crave leaping off into the spikes if any are available.. lol

Use a vanilla generator for power..then build the radio tower

 
PadreNostrum: it sounds to me like you're missing the mill book. There's a book teaching you mill and boiler recipe. I'm not sure which of the book titles it was, steam power sounds right-ish.

 
Hey. First off, thanks for making this awesome mod! Hard to imagine playing vanilla 7 days ever again. Quick question though: Is it possible to disable some of the buff/debuff sounds? Specifically the fun and low sanity ones start to lower my RL sanity after a while :untroubled:

Already tried looking around and messing with some files (deleting lines in the sound.xml) but no success so far. Would be appreciated if someone knew if it's possible, and if it is, what I have to do. Thanks in advance!

No, sorry
Why ? :upset:

I really like previous update. I don't like all this weather cases in this game also season weather.

Another question If I will use command weathersurvival off it will disable season weather also?

 
You dont need an npc to make the small generator. I build one without it. it just takes more work is all. :)

lol, the sounds do tend to play a whole bunch... the status also scrolls the screen way too much too. lol. I know im "a cold son of a b", but i dont need to be told every 30 seconds ;)

It's actually better to build the first generator without npc, because building a beacon comes next after building a generator in the quest chain and this way you don't have to build a second one just for the quest.

There is a file you can edit to adjust the weather to your needs. Since this is pretty complex and I asked a friend for help, I can only tell you how to turn off seasons.

1. Search your harddrive for a file named starvationweather and make sure you pick the result of the real file, not a link

2. put a copy of that file in the same folder, in case something goes wrong

3. right click and edit the file starvationweather, you will find a lot of details and stuff,

4. scroll down til you find this part <Seasons> <Season> and change it to <Seasons> <!-- <Season>

5. scroll down til you find this part </Season> </Seasons> and change it to </Season> --> </Seasons>

6. Save and close file

Seasons should now be disabled. Make sure you do BOTH changes or it will cause mayhem. Good luck!

How do you craft the small deposit if it requires a npc?

Been to every machine but won’t let me craft. What am I missing

There are two recipes for the small deposit. One has a small hammer icon. Pick the one without hammer icon and you will be able to craft the small deposit in your inventory.
