I have been thinking of doing this as A21 is the most boring version of 7DTD I have played since its release. They have made farming, crafting irrelivant and many of the perk lines now make no real sense. level 60 you can now make level 4 bone knife 'whoo hoo' the learn by reading is garbage and the lighting even though it was supposed to be fixed in the stable release is definatly not sunrise 21.56 and pitch black at 10am. The spawning is also a major point of my disgust at this version with zombies spawning out of thin air and pois you have to stand in the middle of a trap to get Zombies to spawn to complete clear missions as least you can by pass this BS.

I have been playing the game for 6 years its its never been balanced its become more unbalanced with each Alpha the performance has improved the graphics have improved the game play has not thankfully the modders have saved it and I look forward to seeing how they redress the poor decision made by TFP.

You have burnt meat until you find enough cook books to make grilled meat which is dependent on how many cupboards you can loot. My 1st 2 attempts both had same start point had very few cupboards. But the mountain of food I had by the time I was lvl 30 on my 3rd attempt was 16 meat stew 15 blueberry pie 9 spaghetti (loot from lvl 5) 7 hot dogs and various canned food. I have 20 meat stew and 15 blueberry cooking but it takes days for that much.

The water changes so confuse me we now have fluid water a big change and selling point in A21 but now we don't use it for anything. The whole water changes are pointless like the farming changes in A20 its just a tedious task we now have to perform. I have a level 30 avatar and in my storage I have 100 spare water and cooked food for weeks and ingredients for months I only have 3 dew collectors but I do have 100k in dukes so could build a dew farm of 50000 dew collectors, I would need a lot of storage. The change only really impacts the first couple of days that in my opinion where already tough enough. As for crafting its the final nail in the coffin as the mags lag so far behind the game stage, I just looted a level 5 secure box and got you now craft a level 4 wooden club whoopee. p.s I do not stop back to back trader missions no shortage of looting.

Most of the learning groups are irrelevant as perks add the relevant skills to weapons and the mags are for crafting only and as loot and rewards out level crafting skills its mute. Except for work bench's and vehicles so the loot skills system controls the progress of the game slowing it down or in my experience making it stagnant. All that it really done is make the game much slower and much much harder for the 1st 3days or so where you can cook anything until you find enough recipes to make basic food. My 1st 2 attempt where on Navesgane and the trader was in the middle of nowhere and without access to a town I starved before I could find enough recipe to cook the mountain of food I had.

Motorbike I have bicycle

Even without daring Adventurer the crafting is pointless I have lv 6smg 2 lvl5 AR's lvl5 bow 2 full sets of military armour and so on no point crafting anything except a bike but no bike and all I have done is trader missions so its should be levelled up to sell me one. Typical ill thought out dumb idea same as the farming and the water Jars so now they finally have fluid water but we can not use for anything anymore!.

I have looted every auto related POI I can find so I have a bicycle I have looked for them another towns and traders but no auto mags for sale or motorbikes. That's one of the problems with the learn by reading depending on what poi's are located in your area fix's the skills you can develop.

I had hoped for a return of crafting but its even more redundant then A20 the learn by reading is pointless, its so far behind the player level you can buy loot, or get as reward items much greater then you can craft. It also makes the perk system less relevant taking away some sense on control of player development, I am level 40 and still stuck on bicycle I am finding A21 really boring to play.

There is a MOD to replace the jar system its a ill thought out idea it is only a problem at the start the A21 is dull as dish water.

I have access to announcements and the rules but " If you want to talk or discuss anime, keep it out of general. Instead use the channel ⁠No Access for it, you can get access by clicking on the emote below. (edited) [1:45 PM].." After this there is no emote to click. Seen as you are going to be very busy with A21 its bad timing to bother, sorry.

hi Kaine I have been trying to join Discord but there is no emote to click on I read the rules and the faq looked every where I could but can not find it, the tick emote.

I found a small bug you may already know, when you craft using the broadcast upgrade if you have the items in your inventory it takes from both the container and the inventory, easy fix I know turn of the broadcast or empty the inventory into the container but I forget.

I finally worked out what I was doing wrong with the broadcast upgrade apart from not noticing the switch I was trying to upgrade using the actual broadcast upgrade and not using the the upgrade tool Doh! Thanks Brevan I got the mysterious door at Doc's lair to open, if you click on it show's you what you need.

Thanks for the clarity on the tech Bio perk makes perfect sense and explains the NA suffix which had me confused. I still can not get the broadcast upgrade to work I have tried on three different games one I got the box's to upgrade but not connect to work stations on the other two I have the walkie talking in my tool bar but right click, left click nothing happens no options so not sure how I turn it on. Sorry to bother you sure you have better stuff to do. I will start a new game with a fresh install as I got some errors at the start when I loaded one of the old saves. Great mod much appreciated.
