How to disable self repair of npc houses?

[Collector]

Hello all,

 

I'm pretty new in the game but I really enjoy to farm materials in the 7d2d-world, especially farm all usefull things from existing houses (iron, glas, paper, mechanical stuff and so on). So I always farm everything out of a house, leaving it only with stone or wood walls/roofs.

 

Due to family and work I cant play daily so I thought about a way how to remember myself, which house is done/clear already and which is still open to farm.

 

I decided to destroy all kind of windows and doors at those houses. This way has 2 advantages for me:

a) I can easy see from outside, whether the house is done or not

b) I can see through the open windows, whether the zombies already respawned or not

 

The problem for me is: I realized, that the houses have some kind of self-repair, which means after some days the windows do spawn again. I made a smal test: cleaned some houses and set 24h time to 10min and waited some days.

When I went back to those houses, some had their full amount of windows back, while others didn't get them back.

 

Question: Is there a way to disable the self-repair of the houses?

 

I play in single mode with navezgane map. In Advanced options, the third option line (dont know the correct english description, cause I'm playing in german language settings) I can set a time for reappearing of loot.

Does this option also effect on self-repair of houses? I thought its only for loot in boxes, bagpacks, rubbish and so on and I set it to 15 days. But self-repair of houses is faster then these 15 days.

Not that I am aware of. The Quest system restores houses as well. You might ask in the modding questions section, as what you want would be changing the core functions of the game.

Thanks SylenThunder for your answer. I didn't realize the quest restoring so far. All my quests sent me to new locations.

 

To bad that this house restoring is part of the main game function. I was hoping I can realize my wish with a simply change in settings. I have no knowledge about creating or using mods. But I will ask in the section you mentioned.
