unlike them Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 What items/actions are tied to Engineering skill now? Using the wrench used to be a good way to level that skill but i believe that action is now tied to Journeyman crafting. So, how are people now raising their engineering skill in the early/mid game? I make purification tablets, purify water (or make red bull), and using a screwdriver (crafted in metal workbench) to upgrade blocks also levels engineering. Also gunpowder (if only I could find a Potassium deposite). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hobohack Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 did you use the mod launcher or extract the files to the directory yourself? I used the launcher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unlike them Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 I used the launcher The only thing I can suggest: delete the game completely and reinstall the game and the mod. When starting the mod for the first time there gonna be a long wait, don't kill the process but let it complete download (it took me about 30-40 min). I hope that helps.

unlike them Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 For some reason I can no longer connect to the official server. I can restart the server (Spider authorized me), but that doesn't help. Can anyone connect? upd: finally connected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamida Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 Excellent work, you are a champ ! p.s. Regarding Point 5, I believe it has been like this in vanilla for some time anyway. I was going to mention this also that it already happens this way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grieverskel Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 I really don't know if this is a bug, glitch or something else but I lost 40k+ pieces of Bullet Casing (ingame currency) for the second time after reconnecting to the game (SP). I left my character outside a Trading Post before disconnecting and i know i have 40k+ casing on my inventory. The first time it happened i had 30k+ casing and i left my character just outside a Town, when i reconnected the casing was missing. I sold everything from my storage that has value to the trader hoping to find some Steel tools from them but now i'm broke again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wolverine576 Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 How do i remove the need to stare at the item being crafted? For me that takes away from being able to multi task. No fun playing while staring at a camp fire waiting for water to boil to get credit for the skill points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeNormand50 Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 Crafting menu not si clear Hey Spider, Thanks for the amazing work. And thanks to Skippy as well who introduced the mis perfeclty on YT. A quick note about some game aspects I do not feel confortable. 1) Not easy to explain: the crafting menu (forge, campfire, inventory, etc...) is quite difficult to understand. Some items are shown in the menu, but I can't craft it (no craft button). Usually it is when I search for something. I suppose they must be done using another workbench but the game do not tell me about it. I would rather not seeing these items if not available in the current workbench/inventory/... Moreover, i can find some items only by searching them or clicking on Recipes. As an example, i can find the first storage bag only via clicking Recipes on cloth fragment (maybe with search as well, didnt tried it), not at all in standard menu. So not a bug, but more a non-user-friendly menu. 2) In random Gen, i usually spend more than a day to find a decent spot for the first night, being usually far from the road or City. Maybe it should be cool to see more treehouse for temporary backup ? 3) question: I Saw lot of crazy POI on Skippy vids, I wonder if they are also integrated un Navezgane map or no. Up to now, i didn't find any modded POI on Navezgane. Do you plan to do that if it's not done already?

Jeoshua Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 Okay, as far as my hack, initial testing is good. I have been able to eliminate both Search and Forge Lag. Search Lag - Search will not initiate until you have typed at least 3 characters into the search box. Forge Lag - When using a forge, there should be no lag when smelting, burning fuel, or having items completed. "Lag" still does happen tho. After certain events, a full UI update is triggered. This will take a couple milliseconds, you will drop a frame or two, and the game will update everything on the backend. Formerly, this was happening every frame. Now this will happen when the following occurs: Opening/Closing Forge Moving inventory in Belt/Backpack Starting a Craft Cancelling a Craft Selecting a Recipe Changing Pages in the Recipe List Searching the Recipe List (again, after 3 characters) Single player shows no problems when forging, leaving the cell, returning, cancelling, smelting, using workbenches, campfires, or search strings. I have yet to replicate the crash event, and am a few versions of the hack in since that point, so I'm ready to mark that "A Wild Crash Appears!, Could not repro, Bug tracker closed, etc". For the second round of testing, I'm releasing the hacked DLL and the Patch XML files publicly. I cannot guarantee proper usage online, with a server, or anything of that nature... and that's why I'm releasing it. More eyes need to pass over it. I was able to connect to the server, but since I have been testing on my personal installation and the progression in this mod is a bit slow, I don't have access to any workbenches on Spider's server. I was able to connect to my own hosted MP game and everything worked flawlessly, but then this isn't a Dedi and I'm not sure if this needs to be a client side hack or server side. If it needs a Dedi version, will begin work on that immediately. From what it looks like, tho, it's entirely UI related. So if anyone is willing to help test, I need a few things done... and if you need clarification on how to do any of this, please step down as a tester. I need people who know what they're doing, this isn't a finished product: 1) See if replacing the Assembly-CSharp.dll file lets you run single player. 2) See if forge lag and search lag still occur 3) Beat on the workstations. Try to break them. I don't mean physically (although, do try that too). Don't try to make them work, try to make them LAG. Try to get them to act strange. Make them work improperly in a way they used to work. If you can, tell me how you did it. 4) If you can find no fault, try it on a dedicated server (preferably your own, in case it kills Spider's) 5) Try it on Vanilla, Recompile an SDX mod using it, see if the lag is gone. The same standard set of warnings from using any mod apply to this. You use this at your own risk. If it makes your computer blow up or destroys your castle you've been making since Alpha 7, I accept no responsibility. This is not compatible with EAC, so if you get banned from half the world's servers, take it up with them.

I know it is just a game but we may need some balance for xp this way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xFORCERx Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 I got a minibike error when entering the server today. Note that I just today hit "play mod" in mod launcher and it, hopefully, autoupdated. Also, what's with the SDX errors showing it cannot load an asset? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeoshua Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 Also, what's with the SDX errors showing it cannot load an asset? Probably the same error. You lost your minibike... or someone lost their minibike. They're bugged beyond this mod. They're so bugged last time someone brought up minibike bugs this often, Spider removed them from his mod.

So those SDX "failed to load" errors shouldn't be too much important to worry about? I think some are normal. You could post the complete log if you'd like me to review them closer. Go to the View menu of the Mod Launcher, click on Log Files, then select the 7 Days To Die's output.txt, and click on the Upload button. Then give me the link it gives you.
