^This.

For whatever reason, ppl tend to forget about the "Well Insulated" perk.

oh i didn't forgot about that perk... i put 2 points in here as soon as i could

But this is just a minor detail ... i need to adapt better to the biome. I was mostly in plains or forest during the last alpha.

 
Has to do with a radiated vulture spawn during blood moon. It's been fixed for next build already. Until then, you either have to mod it out, mod a replacement, or just keep trying and hoping you get lucky it isn't one of the spawns, lol. I'm sure someone can give you a quick fix for it for now.

Oh i suspected that, thank you man. Btw green Boars instead of vultures in camps are adorable easy meat source :smile-new:

 
Guys, when i was doing video record on 56 horde night with melee base game kinda crashed - opened console with infinite errors flow that i couldn't even close so had to interrupt record, but you can notice it in the end of video.

That was SHOCKING!

Maybe replace the floor with some log spikes.

I don't know about the error. Does it have a pattern like the hoard suddenly stops coming?

I've yet to see a green Boar, lol. I keep hearing all about them. I just gave up trying to get past that radiated vulture spawn. Tried so many times on day 21... was so frustrating too :/

I had this on my first horde night and i just quit and relaunch and it was fine ... and i had radiated spider zombie and cops already so glad to not have the radiated vulture as well :)

 
You really should try the log spikes. I first started comparing and working with them to spikes in A-9.3 and they are much better. The regular wood spikes are faster cheaper and quicker to deploy but they take damage when something hits them. They degrade quickly.

The log spikes are only damaged if you hit them but keep damaging as long as the thing being damaged is in range.

Ideally, you will want to dig a trench at least two spaces wide all-the-way around your fort. Then place the log spikes in the trench two spaces wide, same as the trench. This will insure maximum damage to your enemy's as they attack the fort because of them having to walk on them.

Zombies will attack the spikes but not so much and log spikes will last so much longer than the other type.

Plus you can upgrade them. If you have the metal, you can make medal log spikes which can save wood but cost a trainload in medal. They are better both in defense and offence but expensive.

except the log spikes no longer exist.

Also, the two wide trench no longer works. Regular zombies can jump three blocks, spiders can jump five. They will also stand on top of each other to climb out of moats. I have seen them dog pile up six blocks, and the one on top leaped to the top of the block six blocks up.

Things that used to work no longer do.

Yeah, I did that on day 14, got past it... I've tried some number of double digits now on day 21, keep getting it every freaking time... so I'm just done, lol. I'll start a new game for now, haha.

Again, the log spikes no longer exist. Have you even played the experimental version?

And if you haven't, why are you getting all uppity with people who have?

Yep, the radiated vultures are bugged. The same just happened to me a few minutes ago.

I haven't started a new game yet since A17e was released, but I think I will with the next update.

Yeah, wasn't meant as a dig in any way, so hope you didn't take it that way.

Just my way of reiterating it for more ppl. Been watching quite a few different streamers and YTrs, going on and on about the temp shifts, and not seeing any of them even put points into it.

Don't worry i didn't take it that way.

And you're right it's a perk that can be overlooked.

Glad i read the perk list before choosing where to put my points.

 
the A17 has become very nice, but 7 Days was always a game for me in which I could build a nice base, which I can also defend. Unfortunately, this is no longer possible for me. is it the experimental version, or is it so wanted by the game?

I think it is very sad. Also, some of the disposal elements are no longer available in the build menu.

if I still enjoy 7 Days, I doubt vaguely

Sorry for my english

It was the first night when I checked all of the perks I could go for. But the interesting thing I recognize later is that the cowboy hat you can find in loot is way better in comparison to the plant fiber hat. And you maybe need to go from plant fiber armor to leather armor cuz of the heat stats of scrap armor.
