The Big Stuff

ETA! When will . . .
TIS has a strict no-ETAs policy, while they may have their own internal timeframes. Only features in a playable (and fun state) will be released to the stable branch. For those looking to live dangerously, there's IWBUMS.

Where're the NPCS?
tl;dr Perpetually slaved over by our dedicated founders, NPCs are in the works and likely won't be out for quite a while yet.  More information will likely be provided after the animation update.

What are your priorities?
Because TIS is a large (if small) team working remotely from one another, some features may be completed faster than others. This doesn't mean other highly requested features are being ignored; TIS has gone out of their way to avoid being side-tracked by hiring General Arcade to assist with MP development. Smaller stuff will be addressed when individual devs find time.

NPCs remain the highest priority. Only things close to release are discussed in the Mondoids; this does not mean other things are being ignored or that the developers have changed their priorities.

How often does PZ update?
The IWBUMS branch can update anywhere from several times a day to once a week, usually, while the stable branch can take anywhere from one to three months for updates to trickle down. This timeframe depends on the complexity of the feature(s), the stability of the game, and how much polish is necessary, thanks to community feedback.

What do Build Numbers mean?
Not much. They're just a way of compartmentalizing features, bug fixes, tweaks .etc into manageable bites. If something is not ready for a planned build number, but the rest of a build number is significantly complete, that feature may be held back until it's ready for release.

Survival Mode -- It's Too Difficult!
Back in the early days, PZ was a much more difficult game. Since Build 30, PZ has tried to recapture that sense of danger in the optional Survival mode. Be wary of the hardcore description, it means it.

VHS Fix

- Fixed ClientPlayerDB handling of WorldVersion.
- Transfer known media lines from recorded_media.bin to the player on the first load.
- Check for null arguments to RecordedMedia.hasListenedToAll(). A mod seems to pass null for the IsoPlayer argument, which was ok when listened-to lines were stored globally instead of per-player.
 The mod file is es.info.books.main.lua.
 
MODDER WARNING: This could break any mods that modify ISRadioInteractions.lua or are using the OnDeviceText event (which gained a new parameter).
 

MODDING
- Fixed mod animations not being loaded if they aren't in a subdirectory of anims_X, or aren't in a subdirectory registered in animations_meshes.txt. Any such animations are added to the MaleBody model by default.
Item tagging changes
 
MODDERS: PLEASE READ ADDENDUM DOCUMENTATION FOR INFO
 
- Added new tags to some items: BlowTorch, Fork, GasMask, Glue, HazmatSuit, Knife, Razor, Scissors, Sledgehammer, Spoon, StartFire, WeldingMask. These tags are used in multiple places instead of looking for specific item types.
- Added methods ItemContainer.getBestConditionEvalArg() and ItemContainer.getBestConditionEvalArgRecurse().
- Script properties item.staticModel and item.worldStaticModel are set to the fully-qualified "module.type" after loading scripts. This is to fix mod items not finding "model" scripts that aren't in the Base module.
- Added a new item-script property ReplaceTypes which supersedes ReplaceOnUseOn (which is still supported).
    The format is "ReplaceTypes=Key1 Type1;Key2 Type2;..." where each key is some string (such as WaterSource) and each type is an item type.
    ReplaceTypes allows specifying different replacement item types for different uses of an item, for example, filling an empty item with water and/or with gasoline.
    It is used for the same thing as ReplaceOnUseOn, but allows multiple key/type mappings instead of only one.
    These new methods were added to both Item and InventoryItem classes:
        String getReplaceType()
        HashMap<String,String> getReplaceTypes()
        String getReplaceType(String key)
        boolean hasReplaceType(String key)
    The existing ReplaceOnUseOn lines in items.txt add a new value to the item's ReplaceTypes HashMap.
 

SOUND CHANGES
- Added global parameters Electricity, RoomType, and Water.
- Added a new tile property named "AmbientSound" to support custom ambient sounds from objects. Current values assigned to some tiles are:
    FactoryMachineAmbiance
    HotdogMachineAmbiance
    PayPhoneAmbiance
    StreetLightAmbiance
    NeonLightAmbiance
    NeonSignAmbiance
    JukeboxAmbiance
    ControlStationAmbiance
    ClockAmbiance
    GasPumpAmbiance
    LightBulbAmbiance
    
- The FMOD global parameter "Electricity" is set to 0.0 when the new WorldEventElectricityShutdown event passes the "ElectricityOff" timeline marker.
- Added FMOD parameter value RoomType=Factory.
- Changed debugSetRoomType() to accept an integer instead of the name of an enum value.
- Added sounds:
    ArcadeMachineAmbiance
    CanisterAddFuelFromGasPump
    CanisterAddFuelSiphon
    VehicleAddFuelFromCanister
    VehicleAddFuelFromGasPump
    VehicleHeadlightsOn
    VehicleHeadlightsOff
    VehicleWindowHandleOpen
    VehicleWindowHandleClose
    VehicleWindowElectricOpen
    VehicleWindowElectricClose
    
- Synchronize room lights and other objects losing power with the ElectricityOff timeline marker.
- Added PlaceOneSound and PlaceMultipleSound item script properties.
    These are played when placing items using the "Place Item" command.
    The default sound played if these aren't defined is PutItemInBag (the same sound played when dropping items).
    
- Added BoxOfRoundsOpenOne and BoxOfShellsOpenOne sounds to some recipes.
    Increased the time of these recipes to allow the sound to play.  The time is still quite short (was 5 ticks, now 15 ticks).  Probably nobody will die waiting.
- Added FountainBigAmbiance sound played to the multi-tile water fountain.
    The sound doesn't seem to loop and stops after several seconds.
    
- Added RepairWithWrench sound played when plumbing sinks and for the moveables Wrench tool sound.
- Added value MetalGate to the FenceTypeLow and TripObstacleType parameters.
- Added sounds:
    BBQPropaneTankInsert
    BBQPropaneTankRemove
    BBQPropaneRunning
    BBQRegularAddFuel
    BBQRegularLight
    BBQRegularRunning
    CampfireAddFuel
    CampfireRunning
    CampfireLight
    CampfireBuild
    FireplaceAddFuel
    FireplaceRunning
    FireplaceLight
    ZombieTrip
    ZombieThumpGarageDoor
- Added EquippedBaggageContainer FMOD parameter.
- Added "SoundParameter = Name Value" item-script property.
- Added FMOD parameter SinkType=Generic|Ceramic|Metallic which affects the WaterDrip sound.
- Hitting trees with weapons and bare hands plays the weapon's HitSound instead of ChopTree.
- A melee weapon's SwingSound is now played via animation events instead of at the start of SwipeStatePlayer.
    This allows using different sounds for different attack animations.
    Currently this is used to play a different sound for spear stab versus spear slash attacks.

- Play the WorldEventElectricityShutdown event from the nearest square in a building when outdoors.
- Set the FMOD parameter "RoomType" using RoomType objects added in WorldEd.
- Changed how ambient sounds are played from doors and windows.
    Instead of choosing random objects, only the nearest exterior objects will play sound.
    Different sounds are played depending on whether the door or window is open or closed.
    This will be used for playing rain and wind sounds when the player is inside.
    
- Fixed the BurningFlesh sound not stopping in multiplayer after a player dies.
- Fixed the barbecue and fireplace extinguish sounds stopping instead of being triggered to fade out.
- Play an animation when turning a propane barbecue on and off.
- Fixed crouching when extinguishing a charcoal barbecue.
- Fixed SFX and music cutting out in busy situations (often seen on MP servers)
- Reimplemented ZombieVocalsManager to limit zombie voice events to the nearest 20 zombies.

- Changed handling of object ambient sounds so they only play from the nearest 20 objects. This includes doors, fridges, trees, windows and any sprite with the AmbientSound property set.
- Removed DoorAndWindowEmitters.  This is combined with ObjectAmbientEmitters.
- Fixed ZombieVocalsManager not actually stopping vocal events when one of the 20 slots was reassigned to a different zombie.
 
 
CONTROLLER / STEAMDECK IMPROVEMENTS
- ProjectZomboid64.exe will disable the -XX:+UseZGC option if a required function is undefined in Kernel32.dll.
    Steam Proton does not define the MapViewOfFile3() function, which prevents the Windows version of the game starting on the Steam Deck.
    Conveniently, MapViewOfFile3() is only available on Windows 10 1803, the same version ZGC requires.
- When options.ini doesn't exist on startup, set the display to fullscreen desktop resolution.
- When options.ini doesn't exist on startup on Steam Deck, call Core.setOptionActiveController() to enable the controller.
- Allow precise positioning when placing items using a controller. This is done by holding the Y button and using either D-pad or the left joystick to move the item around the square. When there is more than one surface, it can be changed by pressing the right shoulder button while the Y button is held down.
- Enabled the on-screen keyboard in CoopUserName.lua.
- Leave room for two lines of tooltip text at the bottom of the character-creation profession ui.

Changes from 41.66 Unstable to 41.66 Stable are marked with an asterisk ( * ), you can CTRL+F for it.
 
MP CHANGES
 
Increased experimental maximum player limit to 100. Default remains at 32. Servers with more than 32 players will likely result in poor map streaming and desync, so proceed with caution.
  Optional Login Queue system for MP servers added. 
    - Players connecting to a full server will be placed in a login queue, connecting automatically once a slot freed up. The queue will advance after the client has finished loading the game.
   - LoginQueueConnectTimeout=60 server option determines for how long the server should wait for a connection of the client before they are timed out.
  Added options for automatic server backups. Several cheating security fixes to prevent unwanted admin access as well as unwanted actions performed by clients.
  Several improvements and fixes for VOIP. Added Automatic Gain Control options. Allow VOIP and text to travel to radios tuned into the same frequency. Non-equipped stationary radios now two-way for text comms.
  Added admin panel tool for creating custom safehouses/safezones Added new PvP icons. Moved to the left hand side with the other UI icons. Servers now set a Steam server rule named "PVP" with a value of "1" or "0" depending on the value of the "PVP" server option. This can be used by server browsers to distinguish between pure PVE and PVP enabled servers. Added a "SledgehammerOnlyInSafehouse" server option:
    - if AllowDestructionBySledgehammer is enabled, you can set SledgehammerOnlyInSafehouse to true to allow destroying stuff with sledge only in player's safehouse.
  Added buildUtil.setHaveConstruction
    - This is a function to set the haveConstruction flag on a zone to prevent loot respawn if ConstructionPreventsLootRespawn is enabled in the server sandbox settings.
   - set haveConstruction on zone for building, movable, barricading events and when claiming a safehouse, so a home won't spawn loot after being claimed, even if a player hasn't built anything in them yet.
  Updated /rainstart /rainstop and /thunder commands Added /lightning /startstorm and /stopweather commands Added providing optional reason in KickUserCommand Added providing optional coordinates in AddVehicleCommand Updated text for server commands Updated ShowOptionsCommand to allow use by non admins Disabled doubled-up commands AddAllToWhiteListCommand and AddUserToWhiteListCommand Removed unnecessary server options.
  Updated overhead username display
    - with only ShowFirstAndLastName enabled, show player nam

    - with both options enabled, show player name with username in brackets
  Server .ini file now has the tooltips for the various options and settings attached as comments Added limit for server public names to 64 characters and public descriptions to 256 characters Disabled NightLengthModifier since it is currently non-functional. Will be reintroduced soon. Added check and teleport for safehouse trespassing.
    - Fixes issue with players becoming trapped when a safehouse owner goes offline with DisableSafehouseWhenPlayerConnected enabled
    - Fixes issue with players intruding in safezone areas via movement exploits
  Safehouse fixes:
    - Admins and moderators can quit safehouse (if not owner)
    - Admins and moderators can invite themselves to a safehouse
    - Do not show the 'Quit Safehouse' button to admins who are not in this safehouse
  Fixed non-relevant Lucky/Unlucky traits being usable in MP. Fixed some duplication exploits. Fixed being unable to access/change player inventory as admin. Fixed Ping Limiter not working.  Fixed showing the "ADMIN POWER:" debug text in multiplayer. Fixed some cases where crashes at low speeds cause fatal injuries. Fixes for some instances where black boxing could still occur when players were passengers in vehicles. Fixed an exploit that allowed bypassing container item limits. Fixed non-members being able to perform moveables actions inside safehouses. Fixed admins in ghost/invisible mode still making sounds. Fixed "Medical check" on another char in a car causing chars to be stuck in a car Fixed crawlers sometimes teleporting when trying to path to a player. They will now turn to the target. Fixed, via removal, defunct server option "LogLocalChat". Fixed kicks in relation to Safehouse creations. Fixed being able to exit a vehicle when inside a safehouse without having appropriate permissions. Fixed a bug that rendered passengers unable to leave a car. Fixed death by bleeding while driving causing a kick from the server Fixed not being able to die near other players until hp drops down, and not being able to move if char died while other players try to rescue. Fixed looting animation stopping when another player attempts to grab the bag/container.  Fixed double-door opening and closing not being synced properly in multiplayer. * Fixed desync when a player heals via "godmode" at the same time as a character dies. * Fixed SafetyToggle timer speed and SafetyCooldown logic. *

MODDING
 
Added ISCarMechanicsOverlay.PartList[].vehicles tables to any parts that don't have them. VehiclePart.setInventoryItem() no longer calls setModelVisible(true|false) for all models, because this interferes with some mods that choose different models based on which item is installed for a part. Instead, a new method VehiclePart.setAllModelsVisible(true|false) was added that is called from these Lua functions:
                Vehicles.Init.XXX
                Vehicles.InstallComplete.XXX
                Vehicles.UninstallComplete.XXX
    Mods that define "init", "install.complete" and/or "uninstall.complete" Lua functions can now choose to hide or show whichever models they want.
    Additionally, VehiclePart.repair() now calls the part's "init" Lua function (if it is defined) when creating a missing item.
    This allows the "init" function to hide or show models.
  The game will look for mod texture-pack files named Pack2x.floor.pack (correct) and then Pack.floor2x.pack (incorrect) if the first file doesn't exist. Added IsoGameCharacter.XP.setPerkBoost(Perk perk, int level). This is for mods that want to change an existing player's XP multiplier for a skill. Added IsHidden parameter for recipes and evolved recipes
    - If true, this hides the recipe on the crafting menu
    - Hidden recipes are still able to be crafted via the right-click menu
    - Evolved recipes are hidden unless a result item exists
         - This allows adding additional ingredients via the crafting menu Fixed ClothingItemExtra script property not working for items that aren't in the Base module.*  

CONTROLLER
Pressing and holding the left analogue stick displays a radial menu that allows toggling crouching, sitting on the ground, and auto-walking. A quick press of the left joystick button toggles crouch, the same as before. Pressing the controller A button when a text entry has the focus displays the on-screen keyboard.
    - Left shoulder button changes focus between the text entry and keyboard.
    - D-pad navigates in the text entry. Foraging / Search mode improved to work with controllers.  

FIXES
Fixed a Lua error when trying to spawn a new character in-game when the AllClothesUnlocked sandbox option or Character.CreateAllOutfits debug option is enabled. Fixed the "Aim Outline" option default being "None" instead of "Ranged Weapons". Fixed the volume controls not working in multiplayer. Fixed Home VHS tapes switching from blank to not-blank after reloading sometimes. Fixed some unique Home VHS tapes never being spawned. Now CDs and VHS tapes are randomized in ItemPickerJava. Fixed translation files from required mods having priority over the mod that required it. If mod B requires mod A, then mod B's translation files will be loaded first so they override the same translation in mod A, if present. Fixed sitting zombies facing random angles in multiplayer. Fixed an IllegalArgumentException in IsoChunk.SafeRead() when reading an empty map_X_Y.bin file. Fixed the mini-map displaying the game's map data in cells that have been overridden by mods. Fixed some curved-road zones. Fixed traffic jams on curved roads by implementing "traffjam / ParkingStall" and "rtrafficjam / ParkingStall" for polyline zones Fixed exercises not starting when a two-handed weapon attached to the back is equipped in both hands. Fixed a thread-synchronization bug with ZomboidFileSystem.getString() accessing RelativeMap. This led to walls not being cutaway due to failing to load the CircleStencil Shader. Fixed Character.Debug.PlaySoundWhenInvisible default being true when it should be false. Fixed a few cases where sounds from invisible players could be heard in multiplayer. Fixed bug in world dictionary when an item similarly named to a base item but with different module would be removed. This was due to scriptmanager.getModule defaulting to 'base' when the module was not found. Fixed scriptmanager.getModule testing for equals("Base") or startsWith("Base.") instead of startsWith("Base"). This would otherwise result in the same error happening still if one would name their module for example "BaseBuilding". Fixed item loading when trying to create an item with the same name in a different module. When a mod adds "MyMod.Apple" this a new item that exists alongside "Base.Apple", when MyMod is removed the "MyMod.Apple" bytes in the saves should be skipped. However due to ItemFactory.CreateItem calling the same scriptmanager functions that default to "Base" when no module found, it would try and instance "Base.Apple". Fixed bug in WorldDictionary ItemInfo where print debug would not print all lines. Fixed GameLoadingState doing GameClient stuff in single player. Fixed any exception that occurs when the "failed to create vehicles database" message is displayed not being printed. Fixed spawned fish in shops and stories unable to be filleted. Fixed getting extra materials when multiple players scrap an object. Fixed being unable to construct objects or floors through an open window. Fixed being unable to disassemble closed doors facing S and E. Fixed "take pills" anim playing only once when the action is queued. Fixed 'take pills' action being possible while running (it has no animation). Fixed the resize behavior of the "Select Spawn Location" ui. Fixed disallowed scrolling of map description in the "Select Spawn Location" ui using a controller. Fixed some forest and vegetation zones near curved streets. Fixed "ReceiveRemoveCorpse: incorrect square" messages on the client due to corpse rotting. These messages weren't errors. Fixed incorrect looping in RandomizedZoneStoryBase.cleanAreaForStory(). Fixed multithreading issues on the server with the vehicles database.  Fixed radial menu for light sources only available for secondary item slot Fixed double-clicking a watch runs an action but doesn't equip it. Fixed adhesive bandages weighing too much. Fixed mechanics books not being in SkillBook category. Fixed missing Fishing.OnCreateFish function on server. Fixed default name of a profession preset not being the name of the profession (has a number if there is already a preset with that name) Fixed bowl of beans recipe not scaling to source can's hunger reduction. Fixed two-tile table stories possibly spawning on two different tables, possibly with a wall in between. Fixed trailers being detached on the client but attached on the server. Fixed explosive traps not damaging zombies in singleplayer. Fixed server soft-reset throwing errors. Fixed "bare hands" checks which used translated item names. Fixed lightbulbs breaking even if unpowered. Fixed inability to plumb sinks in existing buildings if the water is still on. Fixed zombies densities not affecting loot spawn in MP. This caused Sledgehammers and other items to be a lot rarer in MP than in SP. Fixed not being able to climb over tall fences when a vehicle is nearby. Fixed being able to get XP from VHS tapes again after relog. Fixed TVs showing test screen (only happens 14 days after apocalypse and onward). Fixed one TV screen not showing in the screen 'animation'. Fixed the first channel not being properly loaded when radio loads its savefile. Fixed, via disabling, zomboid radio debugger in mp client that was throwing errors due to stuff not being present on client Fixed bug that caused the temperature panel to display all values as zero. (the call to PZMath.clamp in the panels would randomly pick the int or float overload between diff game boots). Also added Thermoregulator node debugger panel.
