True Survival

I'm pretty sure I just knocked down a pine tree and received a pair of sneakers from it, Easter egg or bug? Either way I got a chuckle.
I believe its intentional. Sometimes trees drop honey, paper kites, garbage bags....

Edit - Didn't see RomRom's post. Sorry

Where can I get some bats? Yeah, regular bats. To craft shockstick specifically. The only one I got was when I unlocked fitness instructor profession. Bats seem to be used in several recipes, but are impossible to craft, which means they should be pretty common, yet I have not found even one.
bandints and followers are my main source of bats

Thanks, I'll try them out. Didn't notice them dropping "regular" bats, however. Only good night and TPX. And with such drop rates lvling up the shockstick is going to take ages.

So you're stuck on the loading screen when it says "loading players"? I've got this problem too, but I found a way to fix it, go to options, find your profile, select "edit" and change the beard for example. Helps me every time.

Hope this'll help you too!

 
Is it just me or does anyone else find their base area becoming littered with craters from boomer zombies after a few weeks? Thinking I might just remove them or make them extremely rare due to this, just don't have the time to fill in all the ditches they cause.

Yeah, my first base quickly started to look like Stalingrad, after it was bombed. Had to abandon it - the zombies started to dig under my base. What I did in my next base, I made the cobblestone floor - they still destroy it, but it helps a lot.

Edit:

By the way, has anyone found a legit way to get 50 at gunsmithing skill to unlock casings and tips? I don't really want to waste thousands of gunpowder on blunderbuss ammo. Is there anything else you can craft to raise that skill?

Repair every gun part you find. That worked for me

I just filled them in with grassy soil, and if I didn't have any available, I used hay bales or wood frames until I did. Do that as a stopgap so zeds won't dig them out more. I plan to upgrade the area around my base with concrete eventually. exploders just help excavate. :)

btw, I was a bit surprised that bedrock wasn't at -57 like vanilla. Shallower than I expected.

 
So, I spent about 4 hours wandering the wasteland biome. Got a weird mix of snow, irradiated and wasteland all in one biome. Couldn't find any surface nitrate. Any tips on finding nitrate? This one seems harder to obtain than steel.

Edit: haven't found any underground biome-specific ores, besides gravel veins, however I was mining in the forest. Is it worth to try in wasteland?

Wasteland is the right place to find nitrate, I got plenty of this TS A16.2, I guess you just got unlucky. Underground caves (black dotes on map) also have plenty of nitrate and hanging moss.

Also, forest has some iron/lead veins. Unlucky again. But I don't know if there are more veins depending in what biome you are.

Thanks for the info, will try digging in the wasteland) But still, where can I find surface nitrate?

 
Hey @Spider,

Few of questions;

- Is animal farming in True Survival (If not it would be really cool)

- Is there a way to set the zombie movement speed to always walk (day and night except for ferals and boss zombies like in vanilla)

- Is there a way to run vanilla style RW

- Will you be updating to 16.4?

Many thanks.

Spider has gone inactive on the mod for now but I can answer most of these for you.

-No animal farming.

-Not through ingame menus but I'm fairly sure it's be easy to mod in Entityclasses.xml as all the runner zombies are labelled as runners.

-Yes, just copy over vanilla RWG, no compatibility issues besides no tropical biome spawning which isn't a game breaker.

-Dunno
