Kirrus got a reaction from heartborne in Wiki :-)
Hello all!
I hope you're all having fun with the new builds We've certainly gathered a nice long list of new bugs to squish, thanks for all the reports, it's helpful!
Our official(ish) wiki http://pzwiki.net, which we host, but don't currently curate (we've not got the time unfortunately), has gotten a little out of date again. If some of you would be willing to invest a little time in expanding the wiki it would help us tremendously, anything that can be done to make the learning curve easier for our new zombie fighters would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you! <3

The game does not use log4j

Kirrus got a reaction from Akahoshi in Waffles vs Pancakes
Waffles with icing sugar on top. Or with cold vanilla icecream. Or melted chocolate.

Kirrus got a reaction from Magic Mark in IWBUMS: The I Will BackUp My Save branch.
Congratulations Indie Stone forum member. You have been promoted to official tester of Project Zomboid.
As such, you will now have access, if you should so desire, to much more frequent, but likely or potentially much more broken versions of the game, if indeed this is of interest to you.
So say hello to the 'iwillbackupmysave' branch of PZ. This will be updated with builds as soon as we feel we can safely make them public, to aid us in finding remaining issues before it is rolled out to eveyone.
Anyone who wants to share details on how to get on this branch, please respect our wishes and forward people to this post and insist it is read in full before any downloading commences.
Before participating, please read the following bullet-points and scream I AGREE at the top of your voice at the screen:
I accept by playing the game on this branch, at some point I am almost certainly going to hit crippling bugs, and potentially lose progress or worlds. I will therefore back up any saves I deem important (located in C:/Users/<Username>/Zomboid on windows systems, HD:/Users/<Username>/Zomboid on Mac, and /home/<Username>/Zomboid/ on linux. I will not get angry or complain of any bugs, or balance, or changes, or remark that 'this build is more buggy than the last one!' or similar - That is the entire reason it's on this branch. If I have problems with the final build as released to the main branch, then of course a bad review is perfectly valid if the game has not lived up to my expectations. However, I accept that negative reviews with justification based on the stability, or otherwise non-final status of IWBUMS builds will be justifiably flagged. If I encounter problems, I will either wait until the final build, or discuss my thoughts and concerns civilly on the forums so the final build has the opportunity to address my concerns. I will title my streams and/or videos accordingly, stating that the shown build is a work in progress and part of the IWBUMS beta branch. I know what the console log is, and on the event of a crash I know to post the text therein on this forum, and not just say 'it crashed!' Right. We good?
Right click Project Zomboid in your Steam library and select "Properties". Navigate to the Steam Beta tab and select the "iwillbackupmysave" beta branch from the dropdown.
No password is required.
GIF Instruction for Steam:
For Build 41, it does not matter if you subscribe to the "build41" beta or "iwillbackupmysave". The two are identical.
GIF Instructions for GOG Galaxy:
The Linux users of GOG will be able to access beta branches through the offline installers in the Downloads section for PZ in your library.
The IWBUMS branch allows us to have much wider and faster feedback on general updates, while allowing us to concentrate on wider more in-depth, focused and crucially less time-pressured/demanding testing with the testing team. Hurrah!
Extra reading
Still here? Awesome! So, if you run into a bug, the best thing to do is to either report it on our bug forum. If you've a spare 10 minutes, give this a read. It explains how to report problems in a way that can let us help you easily. (Seriously, please read it. Please. Pretty please. With Pink sugar icing on top.)
If you can, always post your console.txt file. On Windows, you can find this in C:\Users\Username\Zomboid (Where Username is your windows username). On Mac and Linux it'll be in your /home/username/Zomboid/ folder.

Kirrus got a reaction from crossed in This game is a copy of CDDA, Might as well steal some shit from it.
The game *does* take a lot of inspiration from CDDA, it's a good game! However, the sci-fi elements definitely won't fit in with the intended theme for PZ, and it's setting. A really cool single-player experience and story is planned.
More than welcome to make a mod to add in some more CDDA elements!

Survival requires stealth, but isn't stealth focused. You can 'win' survival without stealth, it's not a stealth game.

Kirrus got a reaction from hunger john in Transgender/Non binary genders
Here's where I disagree with Rathlord a little, gender is a brilliant thing to explore in games.
However, Project Zomboid is not the game for that really, it's about survival at stupidly difficult odds, and simulating the world closely whilst being fun. And zombies.
Would this be an interesting to have? Maybe.
Would it be fun in the survival context? Probably not.
Would it add to the simulation / game to a great degree? Probably not.
Do the devs want to talk about or explore gender & gender politics in this game? Not in this way, see Lemmy's statement in general discussions, the women-different-from-men thread.
So, this really is one that'll be a mod-or-roleplay.
Feel free to discuss this, but unless a dev decides otherwise, this is effectively Confirmed: No, and discussion here is not going to change their minds.
If you choose to discuss, remember the forums golden rule at all times.
Edit: I should add, this game is not going into the details of gender identity and sexuality, because that's not what this game is about, but gender identity and sexuality *is* something interesting to discuss in a game that'd be more suited to it.
