At least I'm only type2. Always forget which type is which, and only take pills. Kind of hate needles. When I go in for diabetes checkup, I can't watch needle piercing my skin but love watch blood pouring into vial. Think its more I'm afraid I will flinch.

Type 1 is what you're born with and type 2 is acquired so to speak. Mi mam was diabetic. Flinching is what causes bruises 😬 lay back and think of England (or so the phrase goes here) I'm not scared of needles but I hate the thought of meds in the vein. I do love the tattoo needles however. That's like a massage 😃

Dev question: Armor in loot seems to noticibly favor Heavy Armor over Light. Is this intended &/or will this remain as is for the forseeable future?

On Nerdpoling. One thought for TFPs; it's fairly common for there to be small loot like the Purse or Small Ammo Pile up on high shelves (or hidden up in the acostic tile, falling zed ceilings) where you have to either nerd pole up a block to loot or hop like a bunny and try to get it. If these small loot items were easier to _interact_ with, not saying they'd have to be bigger, maybe just larger interact boxes, then that might reduce some of the game training players to use nerdpoling.

---

Personally I basically only use nerdpoling for building & mining. Main use being for foundation piers/pilings.

I find early game mining very tedious, ~25+ pecks of a stone axe, so I prefer to dig straight down say 15 blocks then nerdpole back up leaving flagstone blocks behind for support piers for the base above. Later I can mine at night under the base without worrying that it will collapse.

Yes, I could mine out 2 wide on the way down and then place blocks and ladders to get back up, but that just seems like additional needless tedium, to me.

 
Evidence this update is awesome!

i think i have found a bit of an exploit. 

if you have a quest marker on a poi that you have previously cleared, activate the quest marker to reload/refresh ready tfor the quest. and quit and come back in.

the poi is still refreshed and the quest marker is back.

clear poi, reactivate quest marker, clear poi again. 3 clears for 1 poi.

nice when its crack a book 🙂

its actually exactly as nukemded said, when you take a quest head to the quest location, start the quest, quit your game, when you reload your game the poi will still have been reset but so will the quest, loot the poi, start the quest, then remain in the quest area and quit your game, reload again and boom, your quest is back again and the loot is back again

 
Huh that sucks I suppose it is better than quest being completely broken on relog. Looking at you "a19 b177"

Thanks man! If you hear something crying it's either the baby, or myself, if I crack from the stress/pressure :D

Also, if anyone wants to sext me, PM me for my number.

As much as I hated them in Alpha 18 I have to admit that now, with blade traps not triggering their bomb anymore, they are quite feasible. Sadly I cannot use my turrets any longer during horde night but blade traps, electric fences and aimed shots on their heads deal with demolishers pretty successfully.

Tx for the feedback - if only blade traps work without trigger, it limits automated base support systems to one design for later stages, though, so personally I still see room for improvement there. Alas, I haven't had the time to get that far in testing these Alpha yet, so that's all I can say on it. I very much hope regular base building with a variety in designs gets feasible again.
