  1. Is my dew collector working correctly? I get about 1 and a half jars of water a day. As far as I can judge need about 5+ jars just to drink per day - and then the early stage food either needs water (eg boil eggs and boiled meat) or makes you more thirsty (eg charred meat) , so more for that, plus extra to make glue to make another dew collector. We have loot set at 50% which might not be helping as only found 5 jars of water by day 7, so having to have buy it wholesale from the trader. I wouldn't mind so much but in our game it is raining 50% of the time - so I'm 'walking' slowly away from z'ds at 0% drink, and I'm dying of thirst when its raining? Dew collectors ought to quadruple production in the rain at least! I can see the reason it's been added, but we are just going to end up with a big field of dew collectors (bit like an ugly solar farm!) and its not really going to slow end game production of glue much just make it more annoying. Instead they could of kept the empty jars, but made them harder to forge, eg you need charcoal to get to a higher forge temperature to make glass and steel you can't just burn wood, or something like that. For now i've modded the rate of production in the dew collector so it makes it a bit faster - less hassle than putting the empty jars back in. Hopefully this will make the game playable. There is fine line between liking a challenge and rage quitting. I've been playing 7 days since August 2013 so this isn't a newb complaint . 7 Days is still one of the best coop games to play with friends, and the amount of epic play moments we've had over the last 10 years is worth some of the ups and downs of design change. (And when we don't like it , we tweak the xml, until we like it again! )

  3. I honestly don't understand the 3000 hours and now complain bit. It's not like a book or film where you are waiting for an ending - (Hey George R R Martin!- I mean you) its an ongoing process where the journey is the enjoyment. I've played for over 2000 hours, and its been the best £15 I ever spent on a game - And I liked Valheim,ARK,Skyrim,Reddead,No Mans sky, but 7days has still been the best coop I've ever played, due to the totally random ermergent stuff where systems combine to make weirdness. Yeah I'd like the A20 before XMAS but if it doesn't happen, we'll get to play sometime early next year.
  4. I half agree with the opener, but I do wonder how many of the people shouting 'shut up your face' have teen-aged daughters. Might just be an age thing, or maybe we are more repressed here in the UK. I haven't problems with porn/strip clubs/sex shops in real life, as long as its between consenting adults, and as long as it doesn't have huge neon signs saying SEX SEX SEX in a non-suitable location. I don't have a problem with the booby hatch even, but I found the stripper z to be a bit tasteless and 'skanky' (okay fair enough that zombies are always going to be a bit skanky) Nothing to do with religion or morals just a personal preference against skanky strippers. Alternatively might be that my daughters PC is next to mine and she looks at my screen, and I look at hers - am I only allowed to play when she's in bed if the game is 'M' rated? Anyway I modded the stripper out (swapped for the slightly less tasteless nursies) Been playing 7days since 2013 - and the option to easily mod stuff out - 1 line changes is one of the reasons I keep playing/
  5. I used to love playing this as a 'quick' mini game. As you say tempting just to reload it for that.
  6. Hey Slaan, watching your tutorials videos and they are a great help to prefabbing newbie. Just wanted to know if are you okay with us stealing bits out of your masterpieces to work into larger prefabs? I'm working on a map with some big prefabs to fill out for an experiment, easier to borrow from vanilla and elsewhere than remaking the wheel for some sections. Obviously if it turns out good enough , will share here and acknowledge sources.
