This is a bit late and rather off topic... but for those who are experiencing a drastic spike in food usage, I recently found out that the Healing Factor perk can be the culprit. While I have played around 2000 Steam hours of 7DTD (Since A13 or 14 I think?), I never realized this when the park was added. The tooltip specifies "This perk does not work while you are starving" but I had always thought it was designed to stop healing you otherwise you wouldn't starve to death from damage. It seems the mechanic is similar to that of Minecraft, where is drains your hunger bar to replace your health bar. Just wanted to chime in since I saw some people talking about severe hunger. If the Devs could update the tooltip with the words "drains hunger" I wouldn't be upset xD Anywho, I'm rambling... Carry on! ^_^

So it looks like this is an EAC related problem. When I disable EAC via the launcher it launches without incident. Not sure how to rectify the EAC issue though...

I clicked the banner you mentioned; I am no longer running the experimental build but I ran the steps as they were listed. I also went into Steam and Uninstalled 7DTD, then did a clean install. Still getting the "Game Client encountered an application error. (Error Code: 15)" when I try to launch.

Hello! I think this is posted in the correct place, but if not I apologize. I just did a long overdue Windows Update and something has gone amiss. The game doesn't seem to want to launch anymore. When I click Play in Steam I get the EAC popup, which loads all the way, but then errors-out after a minute. I get the following message "Game Client encountered an application error. (Error Code: 15)" with the the following details in the dropdown box. GameID: 17 (64bit) Windows Version: 10.0 (Build 19041) Error Code: 15 Process Exit Code: 103h UUID: (redacted) I clicked the link in the popup box and was redirected to https://www.easy.ac/en-us/support/7dtd/issues/guide/. I have tried the following... 1. Verify connectivity to Easy Anti-Cheat (I have gone into steam/steamapps/common/7DTD/EAC folder and repaired and uninstalled + reinstalled) 2. Update Windows (everything is completely updated now) 3. ran SFC /scannow 4. Update the game (have also verified file integrity) 5. Close all unnecessary programs 6. Manage your anti-virus (have not made any changes to my antivirus since last successful play attempt) And yes, I have restarted my computer a few times as well for good measure. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

Worked like a charm. Thank you for all the help @arramus.

@arramus Thank you much for this! I knew there had to be a way but I could not remember which XML had that option. Follow up question- Because this is a Saved Game Data specific change, (i.e. the data saved in the \Username\AppData\Roaming\7DaysToDie\Saves\Etc etc) and not an actual hosted server, will I need to change the GameOptions.SDF file? Thanks again! -Mike P.S. Apologies regarding the thread placement; I thought this was the most correct spot for it.

Hi all- Anybody know of a way to make it night time all the time? Or to limit sunlight to maybe an hour or two per day? Thanks. -Mike
