BFT2020

Yes I did 🙂 Previously I would just show some self-restraint on using mods in them, but I found I would cheat here and there to reduce my stuff in inventory. So for preparation of Alpha 20, I will be modding out mod slots for Tier0 weapons, armor, and tools. Doing the same thing with starter quests and bringing back Q6 crafting. Alpha 20 will probably be slightly modified at first in my gameplays and then I will probably introduce my trader / loot overhaul changes I been working on.

It’s why I mod out the ability of tier0 tools / weapons of having mod slots

Maybe if you are nice, someone will make a modlet which is easy to install and increase the number of zombies in the world for you.

Never played that game, but it doesn't look like the game is a fully destructable environment like 7D2D is. That's like comparing pumpkins (7D2D) to apples. Games like these can increase the size of hordes because they don't have the same environmental resource requirements like 7D2D does.

Yes, I saw that. I did the same thing which is what my picture shows. You said you did a modlet. Are you using other mods? Where is the modlet load order? Can you also post the config dump file for items in pastebin?

Yes that affects the stack quantities. https://imgur.com/a/HqO8eLm Right now, without anymore information on exactly what you did or your files for us to review, it looks like user error

Link should be to a modlet I just created that will modify the file for anyone that is interested (remove conditions for initial trader quest) https://github.com/BFT2020/MyMods Let me know if this doesn't work (the link as this is the first time I am using github) KhaineGB has a quest file in his mod that does the same thing, except he excludes Wasteland biomes

Yes I was (I looked in the file to verify - not being cocky here as I will admit when I am wrong) In the Quests xml file, you would need to change the following for the trader request I will see if removing those lines opens up to any biome. I think this was done to prevent people from having to go to harder biomes at the start of the game. Edit: yes, removing (or making into comments) the top 2 property name lines above fixes that issue. I just did a desert only map and it found the nearest trader.

That's hilarious 😆 @Apoc Fyerah Try perking into Miner69r on the strength branch and see how the axe works for you. No need to mod anything as the values in it seems to align with what you are wanting.

The trader quest is only for traders in pine forest biomes. If you got a single biome that is not pine forest, it won’t point you to the nearest trader.

I want to first check the numbers to make sure (from a math perspective) that I didn't make it too OP to start with. I also want to make a minimum effort on the text to improve it (minimum effort as I am an engineer and wasn't hired for my English skills 😉 ) After I get that done, I will zip it up and figure out a place to upload it so you can download it. Make sure you can virus scan it as I am just someone on the net offering to help you. I know I got good intentions, but you should always verify (Trust but verify) 😉

So this is the rough draft I was able to get done this evening https://imgur.com/a/sWfSi4x The text needs flavor, but you can see in the description fields on what it does. This is from the readme file I created with the modlet I will see what I can do with the descriptions. Iron axe entity damage starts at 15.1 and steel axe at 28.9 (clubs are 17.4 and 26.2)

It's exactly the same. Spectating (watching an action movie, watching a sports game, watching a streamer play 7D2D) vs actively participating (performing an action stunt, playing a sport, playing 7D2D). Actually it is a correct comparison. Not every sports game is professional sports. Have you never gone and watch a youth game? Watching a bunch of 5/6 year olds play Tee ball is not the same as watching a professional baseball team play, but the entertainment value is still there. We get it. You don't care for streamers. That doesn't mean others don't get entertainment value from them. But just because you don't like it doesn't mean it should be taken from others. We will get the release of Alpha 20 on Day X (which is 2.5 days after the streamers get early access to play and stream the game online). Removing the streaming event is not going to change Day X. When the streamer event it announced, you will know that the release of Alpha 20 is just around the corner. Use that time to prepare for the release: Do a clean uninstall and remove all files so once Alpha 20 is drop, you can do a clean install.

No planes there could also mean that every one of them were used to get away from the area when the zombies overran it. Might even make it look like that the last one got out before the perimeter was breached by a horde. Though I am not very creative myself to do POIs (or maybe just not patient enough) so what I think might look cool is actually something that falls flat on its face.

*cracks his knuckles* Let me see what I can do on a modlet taking what you put in your post. I would probably put the perk tree in fortitude as it doesn't align with either Perception or Intellect.

You quoted the wrong person, just FYI

Sometimes we like to use items not because they are the most "efficient" use of X resources. When I build a base, I do go with generators at first because I don't have enough batteries or solar panels to setup an electrical circuit that is self-sufficient. However, once I do, I like to go that route as my gas needs drop significantly (just vehicles and auger). That reduces my trips to the desert to dig up oil shale. The last base I made from the ground up, I made a generator room to support all my electrical devices. Eventually, it transfered over to battery banks with a spare generator connected to several battery banks to recharge them (seems weird, but I found it mildly enjoyable to switch out fresh charge batteries from there and replace the ones in the banks supply the base). Eventually, as I got solar panels, I switch the base towards 100% renewable (and because I was planning ahead, I used the battery banks for charging to support new electrical equipment I was bringing online). Most efficient? Probably not, but definitely was enjoyable when I was playing that base.

This may be obvious and not applies, but you do have objects / assets in the game called Lvl1 Green Loot box, Level2 Yellow loot box, etc?

Am I seeing something that is not there, or is the color scheme in Twitch an attempt to insult two groups of people at the same time? I’m willing to be wrong here, but the use of those colors just seems suspicious to me.

Technically they are neither alive nor dead. 😁

Once I went there, I remembered seeing them before; but didn't make the connection as I have just been playing vanilla 7D2D before I recently got in the mood to do some modding. I don't know why, but seeing those xml files that I can load into Notepad++ and see where my mod is making the changes....... 😁👍👏

Are you getting any errors when the game loads up the mod? Also, have you looked at the ConfigDumps files to see what your mod is doing to the original files after it loads up? I might try copying and pasting this into a file when I get home tonight and see what it does on my end with a vanilla game of no mods.

Similar to how I go about it. Once I get solar banks / batteries / cells going, I stop using the generators so I don't have to fuel them anymore (and reduce my gas consumption). Early game, once I have battery banks I recharge them using generators until I get solar up and running.

Even better. See, I was fine with 7 days and you promised us 2.5 days later 😉 In my latest post, I did get the wait period correct; though I still think it doesn't matter if it is just a few days later or 7 days later. The amount of time to wait is minuscule compared to life as a whole.

You and I got early access. I been playing since Alpha 16, not sure when you purchased the game. However, when you and I purchased the game, it was at that stage of the game. There were no guarantees as to what the final product was going to be or when it was going to be released. It was the same with development patches throughout the Early Access phase of this game. I don't know about all of the streamers, but your a-h streamers comment was way out of line. I can name several that seriously play the game - Capp00, Glock, Max Fox, KhaineGB, Kage848, GameEdged, and Skippy0330 are the ones I follow and they are passionate about the game. A lot of people on that list that Roland posted have been playing this game for awhile. But I don't think you made your argument based on facts or even research on your part, it was just a way to take a cheapshot on those that are streamers who will be getting the game 2 - 3 days ahead of everyone else. Does it matter that someone plays the game differently than you? I see the developers play the game differently than I do, but I never think that they "don't know how to play the game." I just chuck it up as people playing the game differently than I do which is their prerogative. You and I will get the game 2-3 days after the streamers weekend, it is not a total disrespect of paying customers. Again, you already paid for the game when it was at Stage X. Anything else after that is a bonus (which you are not paying for anything after your initial payment for the game). Nothing prevents them from buying the game today and playing it today. Even if they buy it while the streamers are streaming the game, they get Alpha 19 with Alpha 20 just around the corner. I don't see any fatal flaw there. By the time we get the game, there are typically not any bugs that will break the game. And typically, the streamer would mention that bug as an early access issue - which when they buy it, there are notices on the store page about that very issue. Besides which, I can think of recent final release games that came out with serious bugs....... Again, it is a marketing decision that TFP have made for their game. They are not disrespecting their paying customers as none of us are technically paying customers. We paid for the product that they already delievered to us when we made that purchase, now TFP are adding more elements and improving what we already paid for.
