Madmole, my steel pickaxe (lvl 5, fully modded) had 131 block damage before patch and now is 112 (at M69er 4/5 I was destroying 500 hp rocks in 2 hits, now I need 3...spent my last 5 points to get M69er 5/5, but still 3 hits). There is no mention about changes in changelog, so is this intended?

 
Sometimes when I walk up to a bicycle, my character trips over it like a drunken Curly Howard. Takes a solid 3-5 seconds to recover and I take damage-both to my character and to myself from falling over in laughter. I don't know if this is a bug or not (so I haven't reported it) but if it is, I hope to God, Buddha, Shiva, Hachiman, Shamash--pick a god, I don't care--that it's one of those bugs that gets branded as a feature. If this has been brought up before, my apologies.

Hello All, I've been meaning to post since A18 came out but I've been too busy playing!

I've clocked up MANY hours playing 7DTD since A10 but have had a break for well over a year, I saw A18 was out and thought I'd have a look.

Really impressed, game runs fine even on my old pc and looks great and I'm having a blast. Loving all the new content, I'm usually a builder but haven't had time as there's too much new stuff to explore and play with!

One thing I've noticed, since the patch (started a new game) lowering the torch heat I'm having endless screamers showing up, thought it was my one forge burning at first so was ok with it, but even with it off for two in-game days (90mins) and only 6 torches going there are an endless procession of the little ladies, thank god for junk turrets... and I'm changing my aftershave!

 
Water pollution gave me an idea. What if they add rivers that have a chance to be irradiated and you won't know till you drink it and if you do drink it you get irradiation sickness that lasts a certain amount of time!!! Lol

Omg. An even better idea. If the irradiated zombies hit you, you will get sick for a certain amount of time. Different from be infected. Gives a debuff like a higher chance of food poisoning or you burn through your stamina faster.

 
This is going to take some practice....

Taking clear screenshots? Jking....that a horde base? *squints* 🤔

 
Oh another idea. The radiation sickness from the green zombies can have a bar like the infection that can go down over time on it's own and the higher it gets the worse the debuff will be eventually heading towards death. Lol

Time for some sleep. Have a good day all.

i like a radiation idea but i think it could be cools if some water sources were "contaminated" they would have a red tint and if you drink it could get infected as fast!

 
Roland, is it your birthday? If so, happy birthday! It's my birthday. 35 years old today. I've had a go on 7DTD and now I'm in the pub enjoying a cold beer.

Happy birthday! Thanks to all well wishers. Don’t make me purge this thread.... ;)

 
Guys, what do you think about the Trader offering a quest to fix each of his workstations that are destroyed??

E.g. - "go Fetch me the Forge repair kit...and I may even let ya use it too!"

Or, how about for like a few thousand Dukes, it will get repaired?

Orrr - how about he charges a rental fee per so many resources... I mean, he does take the extra zombie heat to his base instead of yours.

 
More feather nests in latest alpha, yay.

Also found blunderbus and ammo from loot which was a first.

Honey is less prevalent in stumps which now adds some panic to infection

Performance seems to get better and better
