Sora Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 Electrical overload causes severe lag + Suggested fix (Fuse at source) Summary: Electrical overload causes severe lag (Solar Bank, Generator, Battery Bank) [+ Suggested fix (Fuse at source). Version: a17.1 Platform: PC OS/Version: Windows 7 Game mode: client on dedi (NAV) Did you wipe old saves? No Did you start a new game? No Did you validate your files? Yes Are you using any mods? No EAC on or off: On Status: Known Bug Description: Overloading of electrical sources (Solar Bank, Generator, Battery Bank) will cause severe lag, especially for complex bases / electrical systems. This is a known issue from at least a16. Below I have proposed a workaround to sidestep the cause of the lag. I would like to propose an easy to implement solution to sidestep this bug: Implement a "fuse" to each electrical source, which will auto shut off the power source upon an overload event. Along with the auto shutting off of the electrical source, I would recommend that the game plays a sound cue (i.e. electrical zap, not too loud) to alert nearby players of the fuse tripping, as well as a text indicator letting surrounding players know that the fuse has tripped. A quick tutorial / tip showing up the first time upon the fuse tripping would help new players understand this mechanism. To reset, the player has to find the electrical source that is off and turn it back on again manually. I would like to recommend that the reset does not cost any resources to "fix", as modern electrical appliances and houses typically have reset-able fuse(s). Ideally a visible indicator on the electrical source would help make it easier to identify the problem. Examples: a red light or lack of a power indicator light, electrical "zaps" shown on the device zapping or Alternatively a lightning symbol popup floating shown above the device. This will not fix the cause of the lag, but will allow the devs to sidestep the issue while allowing players to design bases and electrical systems however they want without worrying about lag inducing overloads. Reproduction steps: Wire up a solar bank (with cells) to a battery bank (with batteries), then connect as many downstream electricity consuming objects as possible until the power drawn exceeds the solar bank's generation capacity. The more complex the wiring involved (many relays/timers/sensors) the worse the lag induced. Installing multiple solar banks, battery banks and generators in the same area will help increase the lag and make it ... more noticeable. Actual result: Once electrical power drain exceeds generation capacity of electrical sources (Solar Bank, Generator, Battery Bank), the game will noticeably increase in lag. Extreme cases/electrical setups will drop game frame-rates to < 1fps and make it impossible to move. If memory serves me right, overloads in a16 would cause the game to "randomly" un-power devices connected to the power source until the power drawn drops below the generation capacity. Unfortunately this recalculation (or at least back in a16) keeps re-occurring, as each device turned "off" would trigger another round of recalculations. Expected result: Electrical power drains exceeding generation capacity should in real life, trip a fuse and cut off electricity. In-game, we would expect the electrical system upon overload to also shutoff, or at the very least not lag. My apologies if the above suggested fix has already been bought up before, or difficult to implement. Thank you, will look into this. -Hated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sora Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 Summary: Solar panels may sporadically work at night. Version: a17.1 Platform: PC OS/Version: Windows 7 Game mode: client on dedi (both RWG and NAV) Did you wipe old saves? No Did you start a new game? No(a17.0) Did you validate your files? Yes Are you using any mods? No EAC on or off: On Status: Sporadic bug since at least a16 (unreported?). Bug Description: Solar Panels may sporadically work at night, especially horde nights. The solar panels seem to generate electricity based on ambient light levels? I noticed power being generated during horde nights with a brightly lit sky, as well as when lightning happens. It could have been a coincidence however. If the solar panels do indeed generate power based on ambient light conditions in-game, I would like to recommend that they turn on/off along with the night/morning audio cues (or upon re-logging/loading the region upon entering, do a quick calculation to determine on/off state once only). Reproduction steps: Install a solar bank, hook it up with a load, watch the generated watts during the night, especially on horde nights. Actual result: Solar Banks may generate power sporadically during nights. Expected result: Solar Banks should stop generating power upon the transition to "night", then resume generation once morning arrives. Ideally the change should happen with the in-game day/night server set hours when the audio cues are played to indicate the day/night change. Thank you, looking into this. -Hated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Star69 Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 Summary: Trees Planted on second floor cannot be harvested on second floor Version: Platform: PC OS/Version: Windows Game mode, client on dedi RWG Did you wipe old saves? yes Did you start a new game? Yes Did you validate your files? Yes Are you using any mods? No EAC off Status: NEW Bug Description: If you plant a tree on a roof of user-made building on top of a pillar, when trees mature you must harvest them by destroying pillar blocks on first floor then chopping the trees. You cannot chop down trees from second floor. Reproduce steps: 1) Build square building using any block types....say 13 x 13 x 13 2) Place floor to roof pillar using flagstone blocks(block type not critical but this is what I use) 3) Go to roof and put one piece of soil, type doesn't matter, on top of pillar 4) Plant blue spruce seed on piece of soil....blue spruce gives dramatic effect compared to other seeds 5) Leave chunk for a period of time until seed grows to second stage of growth 6) Enter first floor of building, notice branches and leaves fill the first floor even though tree planted on roof 7) Go to roof and try to use axe on tree....you hit soil no matter how high on tree you try to chop 8) Go back to first floor, destroy a block midway of pillar....now you can chop down the tree in the space where the destroyed block was. As the tree falls, it attempts to rise back up to roof where planted before falling over. Actual result: It seems that if you plant a tree on top of a user building, when it grows it snaps down to the ground rather than growing from placed soil. If you have several trees planted on a roof, your entire first floor will be filled with limbs and leaves to the point of not being able to see anything in that room. Expected result: If you plant trees on a roof, you should be able to harvest on the roof, not have the trees grow downward. Side note: If a player is on the roof next to the tree and another player chops down the tree via the first floor, the roof player is very often tossed off the roof.

I always end up getting it on linux, then with no changes whatsoever, I will reinstall the server and it goes away. I get this from time to time, but it's never the server with the exception of a corrupted world, I've had a few. Restarting Steam often fixes it. In extreme case, changing to a different seed/world likewise fixes problems. Sometimes just waiting without doing anything at all works. But I've never seen anything get fixed by reinstalling the server, at least not on Linux. The Linux client has problems from time to time telling if Steam is connected or not. I don't think that is the problem you are describing, though, because it tells you that Steam is not logged in. When this happens, Steam is working fine, and other Steam games likewise work fine. Just not 7D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Report back if you have performance improvements. EDIT: I should add that in my own experience, on Windows it raises the minimums, so I don't get freezes/choppiness. On Linux using wine I actually got a higher framerate due to the game using both NUMA nodes of my Threadripper. All the project does is convert DX11 calls to Vulkan calls. Doing so can lead to threaded optimizations, but it doesn't work for every game. It does happen to work quite well for 7 days to die. In the desert biome I get over 100fps at times.

dcsobral Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Summary: Loot Extremely Poor Version: 17.1 B9 Platform: PC OS/Version: Windows Game mode, SP (RWG) Did you wipe old saves? yes Did you start a new game? yes Did you validate your files? yes Are you using any mods? no EAC on or off ? off Status: NEW Bug Description: Loot in the game is extremely poor for the gamestage, which makes prefab scavenging not worthwhile for players putting points into Intelligence, and seriously impacting players NOT putting points into scavenging. I didn't want to put this into an issue as it is feedback (I made related comments on the dev diary), but I've had an experience which have prompted me to do so. First, let me state that this is not an unique experience. I've progressed even farther on Alpha 17 B240, with pretty much the same results. There, I put points into Intelligence and its perks, so the stuff I looted was pretty much useless. Better to just scrap all weapons right away, get the ammo, and sell self-made weapons to the trader. The stuff *I* used was all self-made. On Alpha 17.1 B9, I'm playing without putting any points into Intelligence. As a result, I have no armor pieces above quality 2. I have no guns above quality 2 except for pistols and hunting rifles. My melee weapon was bought at the trader, since I didn't get anything above quality 2. That's not to say I never got anything above quality 2 -- I looted a quality 6 wrench, and quality 4 hoe, in addition to the pistols and hunting rifles. And a quality 3 magnum, I think. And then, at gamestage 183, with Lucky Goggles on, and 4 points into Lucky Looter perk (Loot Bonus 250 according to player stats), I looted the Shotgun Messiah factory -- the factory, not the office/pub/warehouse that's more commonly found. I didn't find a single AK-47, Marksman Rifle or SMG. The only item above quality 2 I found was a quality 4 pistol. Ammunition per shotgun crate was in single digit quantities. The *whole* building gave me less than 50 7.62mm bullets. That is not an RNG issue, since that's ballpark for every building I go into. And, even if it was bad luck, wearing Lucky Goggles and having a high level of Lucky Looter, the impact of lack of luck with RNG ought to be curtailed. Reproduce steps: Press F1 to open the console, then type dbs This will open a panel in game for you to type the bug in. once done click ok there will then be a SCREENSHOTS folder in the main 7 days folder. 1) Create new character, level up to 100, buy Perception 10, Lucky Looter 5, get Lucky Goggles from creative and wear them. 2) Advance to day 30. 3) Spawn in/Go to prefabs with large amounts of shotgun messiah or working stiff crates. 4) Loot them. Actual result: Looted equipment on par with a level 20 character putting points into Intelligence and related skills can craft outright. Expected result: Looted equipment on par with the needs of a level 100 character on day 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Star69 Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 Summary: Loot Extremely Poor Version: 17.1 B9 Platform: PC OS/Version: Windows Game mode, SP (RWG) Did you wipe old saves? yes Did you start a new game? yes Did you validate your files? yes Are you using any mods? no EAC on or off ? off Status: NEW Bug Description: Loot in the game is extremely poor for the gamestage, which makes prefab scavenging not worthwhile for players putting points into Intelligence, and seriously impacting players NOT putting points into scavenging. I didn't want to put this into an issue as it is feedback (I made related comments on the dev diary), but I've had an experience which have prompted me to do so. First, let me state that this is not an unique experience. I've progressed even farther on Alpha 17 B240, with pretty much the same results. There, I put points into Intelligence and its perks, so the stuff I looted was pretty much useless. Better to just scrap all weapons right away, get the ammo, and sell self-made weapons to the trader. The stuff *I* used was all self-made. On Alpha 17.1 B9, I'm playing without putting any points into Intelligence. As a result, I have no armor pieces above quality 2. I have no guns above quality 2 except for pistols and hunting rifles. My melee weapon was bought at the trader, since I didn't get anything above quality 2. That's not to say I never got anything above quality 2 -- I looted a quality 6 wrench, and quality 4 hoe, in addition to the pistols and hunting rifles. And a quality 3 magnum, I think. And then, at gamestage 183, with Lucky Goggles on, and 4 points into Lucky Looter perk (Loot Bonus 250 according to player stats), I looted the Shotgun Messiah factory -- the factory, not the office/pub/warehouse that's more commonly found. I didn't find a single AK-47, Marksman Rifle or SMG. The only item above quality 2 I found was a quality 4 pistol. Ammunition per shotgun crate was in single digit quantities. The *whole* building gave me less than 50 7.62mm bullets. That is not an RNG issue, since that's ballpark for every building I go into. And, even if it was bad luck, wearing Lucky Goggles and having a high level of Lucky Looter, the impact of lack of luck with RNG ought to be curtailed.

I second this but will go one step further.....I have all 5 Lucky Looters and Lucky goggles and rarely get anything over quality 1, if I do it might be a rare green item. This has occurred on multiple maps, multiple servers. Feels similar to the bug in A16 when Quality Joe was broken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LilMissNorti Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 Summary: Loot Extremely Poor <snipped for space> I second this but will go one step further.....I have all 5 Lucky Looters and Lucky goggles and rarely get anything over quality 1, if I do it might be a rare green item. This has occurred on multiple maps, multiple servers. Feels similar to the bug in A16 when Quality Joe was broken. +1 Level 1-2 quality guns and weaponry is mostly just scrapped at this point when I can make lvl 6 everything (either for use or sale). At least if the possibility of more than 1 candlestick, or 5 bullets was also possible with better 'Luck'... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
