  1. I believe this is the issue. A lot of players still don't do the missions that traders offer. I honestly only use them when I need something, like filters early on.
  2. This is why we use mineral water. I believe it is 65 points of water, among other bonuses that reduce food consumption.
  3. I am surprised this discussion is still happening. That said, people keep mentioning boiling water. Has anybody here, in real life, done this? I have. I grew up in the wilderness in an era before we had The Internet. Boiling water may make it safe in an emergency, but the water is NASTY. Distilling makes clear, safe water. Filtering and boiling make it clear. If you simply boil water that has other things in it, those things remain, even if neutralized. Games always get this wrong. Heck, they had to slap a warning on "The Long Dark" stating that it was a game and not a replacement for real survival training due to facts like this. As such, the dew collectors produce FAR safer water. As for the jars, I could take or leave them. Played with them for years and while I miss them, it's one less thing to scavenge and worry about.
  4. Each dew collector creates 2% heat per hour and it lingers for five hours. If you empty it out regularly, this equates to 10% heat per DC as long as they run. If they fill up with three jars, no heat is created.
  5. Defaults. I did write a mod that decreases heat produced by dew collectors due to the screamer-parties they caused, but I played vanilla before writing the mod I did normal without too much trouble.
  6. I get around a hundred waters (dirty/yellow) a week from toilets and such. We DO have a dew collector farm since I make all kinds of foods requiring water, but I also turn water into mineral water and we use less that way.
  7. Okay, I thought that the "scream" what a custom method in her class/entity/whatever that did the work. Am I wrong in remembering back in like A15 a spawned screamer WOULD spawn zeds?
  8. Just adding my experience here also. In A20 and now A21, if you spawn in a screamer, she can scream, but nothing spawns. I am NOT having issue with screamers spawned normally bringing in hordes, some of which include more screamers.
  9. It is also common on high-security Windows Server boxes, or workstations in a high-security environment. Gaming rigs, not so much. I used to manage a server-farm that had 2022 on USB3.2 drives on a special port on the motherboard (USB 3.2 port) and the RAID disks in the servers was solely for data.
  10. I have had them on the island in my pit base, on a farm away from our base, and at other locations and they DO get attacked. Not often, but it happens.
  11. Yeah, I am not boycotting any of the great Unity games out there. 7 Days, The Long Dark, Subnautica 1 and 2, The Forest and Sons of The Forest, Thief Simulator and American Theft 80's, Firewatch, Kona, Party Hard and PH2, and so many more. My concern now is if these games will be removed from my library should the companies go away.
  12. Incorrect. We have lost several to zeds on more than one occasion.
  13. I would start by resetting everything to default, selecting your NATIVE resolution, and setting exclusive fullscreen mode (highest framerate in exclusive). Go from there.
  14. I didn't realize people were still finding out about the jar change. I don't mind it. It was hard at first, but now I just setup a field of dew collectors at our farm and we're good. Granted, we run my mod that reduces heat from them down to 2% max instead of 10% max (I expect the devs to tweak this value at some point), but beyond that we're good with the change. I do miss grabbing water from lakes and rivers, but it's all good. Now it generates automatically for me. I do wish that the collectors would rapidly produce water while it rains though. That or give us a water-collector. Either could be very useful.
  15. I suppose I should put my mods on GitHub too. I keep them on my PC and Google Drive, but that would simplify things.
  16. My big issue in A21 is how sometimes, for no apparent reason, a zombie will get on all-fours and come at you at super-speed. Had a lumberjack I knocked down. He got up to all fours and moved REALLY fast at me. Even hit me because he was so fast. Then he stood up again.
  17. Like in Ark. Currently, turrets are fairly useless since they keep changing targets. I'd love to set a list of what to shoot at and have them only attack THOSE targets. You know, like demolishers and cops. Nothing else. I don't currently use turrets due to how they shoot for a moment and stop, then choose a different target and repeat. Would love a few on each side of my base to help with the troublesome ones.
  18. I get more brass than ANYTHING by a WIDE margin. I have three forges at 30k brass each and a safe almost full of it. I also get FAR more 7.62 ammo than any other kind.
  19. Oh Jesus, hope you all are okay. Now I understand what you meant.
  20. This isn't the Unreal Engine. Just exit the gyrocopter over water! You then have the fun task of picking up the submerged copter from the bottom of the water you landed in and taking it to shore with you.
  21. Batteries are rated far higher than 20AH now. The two in my diesel pickup are 80 or 90AH ratings. The one in my F-150 when I had it was 60AH from the factory but I replaced it with a 70AH battery. The F-150 had a BMS in it and no setting for a 70AH battery, so I disabled the BMS and the truck ran like my diesel does, basic charging system. I had to program the BMS to tell it I put in a new battery too, so it would learn the charging characteristics, but Ford's database in the BMS only consisted of their batteries, hence the need to disable the BMS. I digress!
  22. That's what I assumed, but wanted to be sure. Thanks! Hope you're doing well!
  23. If I build a small building for a friend and said friend places her LCB there, will she get the block bonuses despite me having built the small structure? Also, if I place blocks down in her base, will those blocks get the bonuses conferred from the LCB there? I know if I place a chest down she cannot PIN-code it, so she places all of those, but I wasn't sure about normal blocks.
  24. Nuking your grid? Are you in Europe? These batteries are from 2012. When the internal four die or get weak, I just replace them. Yes, eight batteries for TWO UPS devices with AVR. It isn't cheap, but it protects my stuff! I do like the way you wired those BIG batteries into the UPS devices though. Very clever, and they offer WAY more amps than the tiny batteries that came in them!
