Darkness Falls: They mostly come out at night...

[Scyris]

I think I changed the plants to look for water within 4 blocks. Otherwise, no.
The reason I'm using that code is because it makes it WAY less likely for plants to just randomly die than the old code. Instead of dying when there's no water, they just don't grow.

Most folks take the rain catcher, dig 2 blocks down, place it at the bottom and just let the game do it's thing.

This is how one player has been doing all of their farms on 2.04 and says it works great.

Could I cover the water holes with like wooden bars or something so I don't fall into them when I walk over it? and for 2 blocks down I assume 2 down from the height of the farm?

Hello, nice MOD and great work.
I have a question, during the game we unlock some skills points, but i don't know if they are applied to my character or if that only makes them unlocked and I must buy them with the skills books.

For example, I have the level 100 in guns unlocked, the icon of the cart in green, but I can buy the skills, I have done the test of making 10 books and apply them, but I have not seen that any improvement has been applied to the stats of the gun.

Thanks for all the work!!!!!!!!.

Nope. They are unlocked. The problem is that effects from skills will not be shown on the UI for guns, which is kinda annoying, but hey.

However the green numbers will be gone in 2.1.

You could but I don't recommend it. The reason is it spawns water on top and it's caused NRE's when the game tries to push water into another block.

And yes, 2 down from the height of the farm, so if you stand on top of the barrel, you'd be 1 below the farm

Latest experimental version, can't repair the "IRON REINFORCED CLUB"

in the items.xml i found "resourceScrapiron" as well as "resourceScrapIron", could that be responsible for not being able to repair items made from "ScrapIron"?

 

[KhaineGB]

Yep, should be resourceScrapIron instead... with the capital I.

Cheers, fixed it while updating the XML for 17.3.

 

[Xylvier]

Thanks, became tough crafting a new one in the heat of battle instead of repairing it ...

Ok, just so folks know...

Stable on the launcher is still version 2.04.

Experimental on the launcher is v2.1-Build9 and ONLY works on A17.2. It does not work on A17.3, so don't try.

The experimental version of the mod is actually pretty stable at this point, but I'm going to hold off releasing 2.1 until A17.3 is ALSO in stable. I figure I'm better off converting it all over now and thus delay release, rather than release now and then convert it later.

For existing games started in 2.04 with stable 17.2, should we update vanilla to 17.3 or stick with the 17.2? Thanks!

 

[KhaineGB]

I'd wait. When 2.1 DOES come out, it's going to need a restart anyways.

Hey there, loving the mod so far, just had a question regarding the classes and their corresponding perks.

How do I go about unlocking the other classes / starting their quests? I finished the Laborer quest and would like to start unlocking some of the perks of the other classes as well.

any way to increase the construction skill faster? using which tools is best to do it?

When you find books/schematics in the world (or if you are cashed up use the trader) if you all ready know the skill/perk etc you can scrap them for blank skill notes papers. Use the writing bench to then create a new blank class paper. It's kind of costly though as each class paper costs 120 blank skill notes and scrapping the schematics/books only yeilds 3 notes per.

I found the best way early on was to get a hammer (level 1 is ok) cut down a bunch of trees and upgrade some poi's from wood to the next tier, or run around and upgrade the trader from wood to the next tier. Other than that, there was no easy way. The wrench takes too long and the nail gun was slower than the hammer but not sure if it yeilds more skill points towards construction tools than the hammer does.

Claw hammer or Stone hammer? Or titanium HAmmer? upgrading blocks of traders is good idea, thanks

Died and Gained You are feeling an illness coming over you it seems it's duration is increasing rather than decreasing antibiotics do not work and it is currently hindering the crafting due to the negative effects so far I've had the illness for 1hr 30 mins

Let a zombie hit you. Should take care of it or at least it does for me.

Sorry mate, claw hammer. I used the stone hammer from the beginning quest to start with until I looted a claw hammer.

Yesterday i give a try of this mode, and I must admit i had more fun then with vanilla. I am also confused a bit, and cant find information to solve that out. I found a book "minibike for dumb♥♥♥♥" and book for p225 pistol, but I cant read them why? Should I unlock some specific class to perform that? When I look at perk/skill tree I was amazed, but also is it possible to maxed out everything? Do we have any xp cap here?

 

[KhaineGB]

Books have to be read from the hotbar, NOT the shortcut key. It doesn't work for some reason.

Level cap is 200, but you can make/find a book that gives +1 skill point. So if you constantly loot, constantly grind, etc... there's technically no cap.

Oh, but as I remember correctly, the "Read" button on the hotbar was not active. I wasnt able to push it. Is is possible, that I have - somehow - installed mode uncorretly? I did use mode launcher though.

Hey mate, put it in your hotbar and then when you have it selected, left mouse click. Most of them will say you just gained........ or you already know this....... you will also get a few that won't do anything, this, I have found, is because you all ready know it and you are good to scrap it because if you actually select it in the inventory screen and hit USE it will cause the screen to flicker and disappear giving you nothing and wasting the 3 scrap papers you could have got from scrapping it instead.

^ this.

The read shortcut does not work. At all.

You put it on your hotbar, select it and left click.

Hiya KhaineGB, I have now unlocked every class and still loving it. Just noticed though I cannot craft Steel Wrench or 4x4. These are suppose to be unlocked in the mechanic class but doesn't appear to be working. I can craft the normal wrench and the bike and minibike (haven't tried the motorbike).

It does seem to appear in the Mechanic Perks (Mastery) progression.cfg file as vehicle4x4TruckChassis,vehicle4x4TruckAccessories,vehicle4x4TruckPlaceable,DFoilPump,DFmeleeToolSteelWrench

so I am not sure where the problem is.
