Hi, just wondering what this popup at the bottom right of my screen is as i am making salads etc. It has a countdown, not sure if it is how many more options, or ingredients I have left, but it is a hazard popup, I am scared I am downloading a virus or something if i continue and get it to zero. Google searches, PZ forum searches have not provided any information. Can someone help and explain this? I am on the IWBUMS beta test thing. On first bite, which seems to be really just annoying tbh as i can't even move around the map since the zomboids are respawning more than my exhaustion can handle. But what is this red popup with a countdown.. It only happens now and then, once in a while, I have made tons of salads, but only a few days in the 2 months it does this.

I understand that taking carpentry points (or characters that start with carpentry levels), and perks like fast learner could help, but the point was that the multiplier is NOT working. That was the point. New players are going to quickly get frustrated, disillusioned or think this game takes way to long to level skills if the multiplier is not 'working'. Currently skill books being obsolete, The illiterate skill and slow learner etc would be viable for the high points if the skill books no longer give extra boosts or help with the learning of skills. Just my thoughts, from a Project Zomboid player who was been here since the beginning.

From the recent update (IWBUMS - IWILLBACKUPMYSAVE) Early Access V31.6. I am experiencing this problem too. Since the levels for all the skills went from 5 to 10. I have a XP multiplier of 3 on my level 0- carpentry, yet barricading windows, sawing logs only give 1 experience. The level multiplier is not working. Also Can not 'build' anything at this level since I am zero. So have to saw/barricade 75 logs and windows to get to the first level. Chopping, carrying, sawing about 5-6 logs usually exhausts me, so I have to go and rest, then repeat the process. Hopefully there is a fix that does not destroy my game. 1 month, 24 days and 10 hours so far into my survival game and only got my first Axe 6 days ago after 700+ zombies killed. A harder feat with the overbearing exhaustion system, where I could pretty much only kill 5-6 zombies early game and become exhausted until i rested. Have resorted to using Hammers since they seemed to not give me the quick exhaustion that the baseball bats (which i have not found hardly any. only two in the first month) Sorry long post, but yeah to the original poster, this is not how it should be ( Putting reality aside since this is a game, and previously the mutlipliers did work) I don't mind the exhaustion system, but we need the level multipliers running asap. New players will get very frustrated and not bother playing. I have been playing for almost 2 years, so i realise, expect the bugs and the restarts, plus it is fun to restart and raid the larders and pantries then go OH no power! NOOOO no water!
