You should create your post in the support forum and include a log so someone can help.

Oh that's lovely! Thank you from someone who uses 4k worlds!

This is also a question not for anything in the hotfix, but how does one save a randomly generated world from the previewer without exiting and re-entering, and is there a way to preserve these settings upon doing that? I tend to make a lot of maps all at once and I only recently noticed the worlds only save if you save them manually. Having a toggle option would be nice for us digital pack rats !

The General Support forum has a sticky that tells you where to get the log.  It is generally in your %appdata%\7DaysToDie\ folder.

 
The changes to screamers seems a little overtuned. I had a screamer spawn while clearing a tier 3 POI far from my base. I used a pipe machine gun and a hunting rifle to deal with a wight. I was using melee up to that point.  Not sure what TFP is aiming for here but I wouldn’t expect a screamer to spawn after so few rounds were fired with such a low rate of fire. My expectations may be colored by past alphas but I would expect to need prolonged automatic fire with a high fire rate to spawn screamers—like using a SMG to clear a tier 4 or 5. I’ll have to give this some more thought but I’m not sure I’m keen on screamers spawning just from light weapon fire when clearing a POI.
 
 Also the hitboxes for screamer’s heads seem very wonky. It seems like you need to aim for their neck to get a hit from an elevated position.

I wish in general it was possible to adjust screamers in the settings to be more/less, or even just not have them spawn at all, instead of just an unmodifiable flat effect. regardless of how they are adjusted, they just are not my cup of tea and I’ve never really had fun dealing with them. I understand that differs for people and it’s why I want it to be an intended consequence, but for me it’s just a no-go and these changes really don’t make that opinion shift much.

That and zombie spawn setting. 

I think the reason why they did that is so that there can be more zombies to fight since more people complain about the lack of zombies which I'm okay with that but also settings and stuff for other people is always nice

store_book_01, did a pass on reducing how many books were in the store section of the POI, removed about 40%

Wow that's a pretty big nerf. These bookstores are in virtually every major city in the generated maps and were the primary source of books. I know at least one Youtuber who will be ranting about it. Greetings to @IzPrebuilt

Only allowed to complain if they also complain about animals learning how to read ;)  

 
Has anything changed in the heat balance? I was mining stones and suddenly there was a radioactive screamer in my mine followed by another radioactive screamer which apparently spawned another radioactive screamer. I've never had this problem before while mining stone. The heat was always below 100%.
 

 
Yes sir!

Changed: Improved screamer spawning rules to account for a wider range of player activity (ActivityLevelToSpawn 100>25, SpawnChance .7>.2, CooldownDelay 15>4, +CooldownLongDelay 22, CooldownNeighborDelay 4>3)

Wow. I can already see my future mining trips. Screamers on top of Screamers with Screamer sauce and Screamers as side dish.

I need a better PC or this will be a slide show.
