very much agree here to. its ok to open map when fully stopped but please dont do it while driving.... it will give people the idea that its safe to do that in real life. :( whoa... NVM, hell people are doing it now.... i am too late.

true story - i did yell at a man one time for driving with the damn map open... he cussed me out and told me to mind my own business.... about 200 ft down the road he ran into a car stopped at the stop sign... i did run down to him and kindly reminded him that he should have listened to me.
My driver instructor told me something that got stuck into my head for now 12 years - "If you wanna crash just distract, change stations or text. Your life is yours, but other`s lifes is theirs"

Binding a Tab key for example, while bike is stopped is cool option to bring a map on the screen.

 
Saving waypoints is a bit crappy because some markers fade away with the distance growing. I agree there must be a way to know where is all this stuff on your map in some way. But why you need a gps is too much in survival postapocalyptic world. People survived hell and found new continents with a map and a compass. And no women on board.
You can use the track waypoint option to prevent them from fading away...

 
Hey Roland, I have a good question, i did ask this a few pages back but madmoles video came out so i never heard anyone on the topic, if you guys do anymore skill reworks can i make a suggestion, the repairing perk, can we possibly make that into a skill out of 100, i feel it should be like that for the more you use it the better at repairing you get rather than 5 perks bought and your done, to make it worth while to repair more stuff for other than trading, why not make it so the higher the skill the less resources it takes to repair an item, could even contribute to repairing the base that is built, i think it would help with the immersion and skill point distribution. What do you think?
That is a Gazz question. Maybe he will chime in.

 
@MM/TFP - with the addition of loot palettes in in the video will we see a chance to loot containers in POIs to match the plastic wrap? possible the introduction of warehouses where said plastic wrapped palettes came from?

how about adding a dolly or fork lift so I can move said palettes?

 
"Removed player collision from yucca and aloe to improve travel"

How about those twigs? They are everywhere in forests and the player collide with them is fine, but at least make them breakable while driving. Forests are already very crowded with obstructions.

If they break when you hit them then most likely your bike will take damage. I would prefer that to just stay the way it is. The 4 wheel one might be different though who knows lol

 
Since Zombies like doors, I tent to not have a door below 4 blocks. I build a boring 6x6x5 high SOLID with a mine shaft down the middle. I put everything on top of that block and use frames and eventually bars to control zombies and shoot through.
to get up I use a ramp and eventually a drawbridge.

Make a roof out of upgraded wood frames and put a garden up there. that controls weather and keeps vultures at bay. it seems Vultures will not fly into your place.

a couple of rows of log spikes help with screamers if you want to avoid them. I like 2 rows of spikes around the base and two rows about 10-15 blocks out so that I Can control zombie pukers.

Any Suggestions for a quick solution for things like the Phone or Front Door in M/P so you don't get chewed up by a Z?

*********************

I think that spacepiggio was talking about when he was playing someone would call on his phone or knock on the door to his house. Or she, never know if the person is male or female by their handle.

For me, I have the phone near my computer desk and I can see who is calling, I just look at the name, let the machine pick it up and if I want to talk pick it up, if not, ignore it.

For the door, we are new to our neighborhood, so we don't have that many visitors, family is in other states. MP is a hard one because you can't pause the game so have to take the chance the zombies won't eat you while you go to answer the door; same with having to run to the bathroom I guess, hope you don't die in the process. I play single player and use the pause button, a lot. The ones who demand my attention are the family "children" our dogs. If I ignore the "monster" he just plops his head on my arm and I can't move it until I tell him okay, and then he raises it so I can give him the attention he wants. Not much help, sorry.

 
They should enable the pause button on MP when there is only 1 player in the game.

...and as a bonus, enable a "global pause" just to piss off other players. =)

If the server is paused because of only one player, can a 2nd player log in? If yes, what happens to the first player that thinks they are paused. Thinking you are paused and then it going away is worse than not being able to do it in the first place.

Followed by a 3 hour AFK?

Game stays paused. ...but really I just want that feature to cause rage.

It would be nice to use a hand truck to move your full chests as well. (Minecraft's Open Blocks mod has this. When moving a chest, your stamina goes to zero while moving for balance.)

Minecraft has a lot this game doesn't that is why this game isn't called Minecraft.

But seriously it be easier and better to just make a new chest and empty out from one to the other lIke it is now. Why would I want to take longer to move a chest?

Suggestions are just... suggestions.

Yeah, it would be fun as a server admin.

You can't leave it paused. People would abuse it. Log in to a server, wait til you are the last player on, pause server, and leave it running in the background. You just took the server offline whether you are an admin or not.
