Hello Everybody!

We will be collecting localization improvements until including the 13th of February, then the first batch of community feedback gets attention and will go in our final version of A18.4

The promised A18.4 EXP is finally here!

We have a fix for the crash caused by the electric fence.

Workstations will no longer slow your game down in longer game sessions!

Please do test Macs with EAC enabled again. An update to it should solve the crashing issue. Let us know, if the problem persists.

We are collecting feedback from the community for improvements in their language, please use this link

to participate.

If you find non localization related bugs, please report them here.

For general discussions, please use the dev diary.

For balance and performance feedback find your way to this thread, please.

We hope that you enjoy 7 Days to die!

Cheers,

Hated

:D after testing, the bug still remains with a shotgun...

I'm particularly glad about these :)

 
Thanks Hated. Not to nit pick but there's a typo that would grab Snowdogs attention "For general discussions, please the dev diary." - edit to "For general discussions, please use the dev diary."

 
Thank you for the update.

Very happy about the UI label size and the multiblock offset.

"Forges no longer slow down the game"

How was the forge slowing down the game?

 
Curious about this line: Changing time with commands or time slider now recalculates the blood moon day

What exactly does that mean? I know in some cases, if you use the slider, accidentally go past the 22:00 time and then go back, it messes up the gamestage and a horde won't show up on the right days.

But the slider has never worked properly for moving days past 16.

So what exactly does this change do?

What would happen is the blood moon would get changed to Day 8, 15, etc instead of the normal 7, 14, etc.

With additions of the blood moon settings, code would store the last blood moon day to determine the next day from your current settings. There was no way to go back. If last was day 14 and BM frequency was 7, then next would be 21. If you set the day back to 1, next was still 21. The change makes it recalculate when you go back in time, so last would be day 0, next 7 in that case.

You can now go forward and/or back repeatedly in time and it recaclulates the best next BM day each time.

 
1. After the patch, our junk turrets wouldn't target zombies.

2. The "garage door over barbed wire killing corridor" seems to not work any more. The zombies fall through the garage door and are 1/2 clipped in and out of it.

ok.

spent all day fixing broken stuff migrating databases from an old sql server to a not so old one. this one popped my fufu valve thanks faatal. expecting to go to bed and see the tardis eating my pillow.

 
"Ramp shapes no longer delete faces to allow exploits"

Delete faces?? o_O

Does that mean the slippery slopes are history?

 
I'm only posting this here because the first post does mention EAC. Any chance of getting EAC to work with RGB control software? I have to either disable EAC or disable all my RGB to run the game.
