K.... that one one WAS funny

YOU DRINK YOUR WOMEN BLACK!?! Damn Rednecks with tophats let me just say one thing to you sir. HOW DARE THY COPY YOUR LORD AC30FSPAD353TH... YOU MUST DIE Yelling at people for humor can be misconstrued in RL, let alone in a flawed medium like a forum..... But I get it I think

that is not a bug from this mod its a bug in the game I noticed it too, while testing the "I told you not to push it" event.... Its just more noticable because you can spawn guns & ammo at will. I haven't gone anywhere near the reloading mechanics

Smoking actually makes you unhappy atm making your boredom/happiness worse.... Never really agreed with it, but spose it needs flaws

As was said in the other post "I know how" is not a valid reason for something being common knowledge. You missed the point of that entirely..... Your argument about the number of practicing SMITHS is moot because FABRICATORS are taught how while they're going to Tradeshcool a couple of days a week during their apprenticeship. Yes I'm talking about ACTUAL Fabricators.... Tradesmen.... Its a fairly common profession too.... EDIT: Not intensive "smithing" training but we're taught the basics about shaping & heat treatment I've got a Boral distributor & RussTech Inc. in Louisville.... So refractory cement is in the GENERAL area. Actual proof, FOR OR AGAINST, any closer than that is a BIG ask especially since its a fictional town BASED on a RL town.... That "Rail Depot" looks more like a Sale Yard to me And you still refuse to acknowledge the point that there's no fucking point in going to all this trouble when you could find solutions without spending months preparing that works as well as if not better than your forging. This is a little incomprehensible but based on your other posts... EDIT: Either I mis-read or you edited, either way.... meh Quantity over Quality After a few months/years the number of weapons will start to dwindle, if you've spent the majority of your combat skill points on blade, you may be happier with a number of crappy tomahawks than a frypan Realistically speaking, & I say this under duress because I dislike Zombie Apocalypse hypotheticals, I would feel safer with a number of crappy tomahawks than a "good" weapon. What if I drop or my "good" weapon gets stuck, loosing my "good" weapon is a real loss, loosing one of many crappy tomahawks is VIRTUALLY not an issue because I know I can replace it. Have the furnace argument if you want it THAT badly because with it goes your last point about realism.... I was shown how to make "tomahawk" heads out of railway spikes & an Oxy-Acetylene torch & there's no way that a town like that, with industry like that, wouldn't have COMMON fabricating tools. As for what the devs have time for.... Is that really up to anyone but the devs? Hell when it comes right down to it this entire thread is arguing semantics.... How many of the recent Implementations were community based? That's not rhetorical, I don't think its many but correct me if I'm wrong....

Good point, I plain old wouldn't drink from a well with a corpse in it.... let alone a rotten, previously reanimated corpse

woah, settle down.... Taking this a little seriously aren't you I already submitted in that IF IT WERE to be implemented it would be based on profession How about providing some FACTS that you couldn't find any of the items

Sorry If I have misinterpreted you but it sounds like the first part of your idea is referring infected animals? If I am correct it has actually been stated as one of the "big no's" that there will be no zombie animals.... Although I spose its possible your talking about animals dying from being bitten. Sorry I'm unclear on that point.... Care to elaborate? As for the second part, the zombies aren't actually caused by a virus. Personally I would prefer that these types of situations be avoided in the game as it draws attention to the nature of the zombies which is to remain unspecified. Welcome to the forums

YOU DRINK YOUR WOMEN BLACK!?! Damn Rednecks with tophats

Getting bitten causes a tiny little footmuffin to grow inside your stomach & the only way to delay it from taking control of your body with an elaborate system of hugs & cuteness is to distract him with cake "Also, there is one golden rule of proper zombie films IMO. Satirized by Shaun of the Dead perfectly. It should never be really explained why the dead are rising. You can think it's a virus, and there's sure to be scientists working under that assumption. It can be spread from zombie to person like some infection, but we don't want to black and white state it's a virus and not, say, some supernatural apocalypse. Even though it is very likely a virus in actuality." - Lemmy101 2011 Sorry but that's incorrect.... "infection" is one of those, for lack of a better word things EDIT: Not that I disagree with your point

^^ The problem with text conversations.... Surly you can see how that could be misconstrued

Yeah, getting kinda harsh there.... Any particular reason? Scratch out "other towns" & the idea pretty much consists of NPC's seeking you out for one reason or another

Sorry, was in a smartass mood.... Glad I could help

The issue I'm seeing here is you seem to be under the impression that its an exact science.... ITS NOT A LOT of engineering comes down to "rig it together but do a good job". At first glance the tolerances are utterly horrifying but that's the way it works, like my example of the burner. Rig together a couple of pieces of pipe, drill some holes in it & attach a injection molded gas fitting & hey presto you got a BBQ burner.... Taper the outlets & purge the joins for extra strength & you got a high pressure torch See everyone? People are really frickin stupid. There are ways to go about it but all of the OH&S drills you go through for Hazardous containers don't apply to gas cylinders..... AGREED!

OMG! Possible contender for the Darwin Awards! Cut up a Propane tank

This isn't a good one but still demonstrates that in can be done Refractory Cement can be substituted for Ceramic Fiber Blanket, & its not unrealistic to assume that these materials would be stocked at the logging company for use in their wood kilns (although I AM making assumptions there) Zircon Paint = thermal paint.... the guy is talking himself up

Welcome to the forums 1. Gameplay aside, having a cure implies a scientific nature to the "infection". This is a quote from one of the devs on the issue "Also, there is one golden rule of proper zombie films IMO. Satirized by Shaun of the Dead perfectly. It should never be really explained why the dead are rising. You can think it's a virus, and there's sure to be scientists working under that assumption. It can be spread from zombie to person like some infection, but we don't want to black and white state it's a virus and not, say, some supernatural apocalypse. Even though it is very likely a virus in actuality." - Lemmy101 2011 2. This would be a MASSIVE undertaking for a handful of guys, the towns in game are based on RL towns & I don't think there are any Pump Stations in the immediate vicinity (correct me if I'm wrong). Given that generators are planned, it would be far easier to use pumps/wells/water towers to supply water to your new society 3, 4 & 5 like this is from the How To Write A Good Suggestion topic Posting your idea! Time to post your idea, finally! (Finally? Oh come on it didn't take that long.) First, your title. Titles should be short and they should give the basic idea of your suggestion. Three examples to show the extremes people go through with titles: 1: idea2: Automobiles3: Devs, add in cars now please and also buses and trains and tanks and bicycles and blimps and zeppelins and submarines and autogyros.Please don't ever make your title just your name followed by the word suggestions (Rathlord's Suggestions!). Its not that big a deal it just makes it difficult to reference your ideas in future topics

While its true that Smithing is a dying Trade/Art form its still taught as part of a Fabrication profession.... I have a damn fine pair of dividers in my toolbox that were half forged (shaped & hot riveted) & again building those was a prerequisite of me passing my course. "Forging a weapon would get you a silly, impractical, unrealistic weapon that's weaker than what you can find" I knew a Smith that used to make "tomahawk" heads out of railway spikes & as for "weaker than what you can find" are you going to elaborate on this at all.... It sounds like your talking about work hardening but, as I said earlier, this can be fixed with basic heat treatment skills.... again taught in a Fabrication profession. "it would require a good amount of dev time for new items, new systems, and new skills" I don't see how this is a point ​Virtually any new content is going to require a good amount of dev time.... queue some BS about Dinosaurs with lasers "dude im 16 i can easily build a table i actually did and a chair too not that hard :l its really easy" ​that was aimed at the sub discussion of knowing HOW to build something, you wouldn't have known if someone didn't tell you EDIT: On the other hand, yes SOMETIMES there is a better way than forging. I also knew a guy that would make blades out of hand files because the steel was already tempered, those were as good as anything you could buy.... Mind you, you still have to be VERY careful because grinders & sanders CAN generate enough heat to cause work hardening.... not to mention "blowtorches" (oxy-accetalyne?) Its also noteworthy that this guy was an abatwa worker so he knew his knives but had no noteworthy fabricating skills.... Which brings me back to my point about Hicks & Rednecks WOW! Go to sleep, wake up & the topic has virtually doubled in size.... Next point. Impurities in scrap steel. This IS a valid point as far as forging & welding is concerned (though in forging its not THAT big of a deal).... not casting though. Impurities will get "burnt out" at those temperatures resulting in SLIGHTLY more carbon in your steel or SMALL imperfections caused by foreign metals which didn't bond to the main metal in the melt. The guys in the foundry used to throw their rubbish in the ladle during smoko & lunch, just letting it burn during their next melt. They probably shouldn't have been doing that but it made virtually no difference to the end product

Its obvious we're not going to agree here.... I think common knowledge for the kind of person who lives in Hicksville, Kentucky is more relevant. Lets face it, the game IS NOT about a city slicker who wakes up one day in the middle of nowhere with zombies running around.... But I digress.... Spose occupation based would be agreeable

No, no, no, no...... NO..... I mean yes he's being arrogant I'll entertain the discussion about weather or not an average Joe would know HOW to make a furnace because that's the only relevant argument here. The materials PROBABLY would be in Muldraugh, probably not the ladle but I'm pretty sure casting one out of the same refractory concrete would do the job. "Metalworking" is a different kettle of fish. GMAW (MIG) welding is the easiest thing on the planet & there would DEFINITELY be MIG welders & ArgoShield in Muldraugh

We are DISCUSSING both casting & forging But yes your right, Iron for example can be worked cold. However working metal at any temperature will change the grain structure of the metal you are working. Fixing this requires annealing which is a controlled decrease in temperature, it doesn't need to be melting point but still pretty high. I'm working from trade knowledge & cant be bothered looking up annealing temperatures thx for your input EDIT: Sorry, got ahead of myself. By changing the grain structure I mean, compacting the grain structure which makes the metal hard & brittle

HA..... Obviously "cars, helicopters, and..... pony's :P" pony's cheekiness

Beasts of burden as vehicles..... I think it suits the setting of the game. IT IS Muldraugh, Kentucky after all

I don't know why, but the topic made me think of this

Infection Morality? Do the spores infect you then feel bad about it for 2 days I know what you mean, just being a dick
