Greetings, another little mod from me and again, only useful in multiplayer. What does Coxis ServerMessage do? With Coxis ServerMessage (short: CSM) you, as in the serveradmin can display any text-information for your players that you want. This text will be displayed for every connecting player in a modal window. The player can still play the game, but the window will stay atop. If the player clicks the OK-button the window will close. How do I (=Serveradmin) edit the text? That's pretty simple: With the mod ships a CSMrules.txt, you can add your text there. Be careful to not make this to long at the moment (will get changed in a future update). Example preview: Download: Sourcecode on Github Steam Workshop

Greetings all! I modded this thing in a couple of minutes and thought it might be useful for other people as well. I coded it mainly for my own purpose and want to run this mod once the Workshop works fully. Coxis Reload-Sync is only working in MP and still has some bugs, use at your own risk! This mod supports TinyAVC! What does Coxis Reload-Sync do? Well, the name pretty much sums it up. With this mod you (=Serveradmin) can choose a reloaddifficulty and automatically sync it to your clients. The clients aren´t able to change the setting while the mod is loaded. How do I (=Serveradmin) choose the difficulty? Within the mod folder you find a "reloadsettings.ini" which should be pretty self-explanatory. Here is a quick example: If I wanted to set the difficulty to medium my "reloadsettings.ini" would look like this: [SETTINGS] ;Choose the desired difficulty here: ;1 = Easy ;2 = Medium ;3 = Hard difficulty=2 Sourcecode: Github Steam Workshop

Hello everyone! In short, two friends and I are playing in the coop mode, I wanted to know if for example the one who created the map or the world can pass it to another so they can continue playing when he is not there. Thanks

I hope it's not too contentious a thought to be said but... Any chance the team could get someone to help put @nolanri's Survivors on MP? Secretly, even? This is just such a game-changer I don't even think of it as a "mod" anymore. It's at the point where playing Zomboid means choosing between playing a quiet scavenger game with a handful of friends, OR diving into a chaotic zombie apocalypse. I would REALLY love to do both (as would likely everyone who subscribes to Survivors). I don't mean "quiet scavenger game" to be a disparaging remark- I've had a semi-regular group going at this game for most of the year I've had it, so obviously things are doing fine! Props to the team for where the game has gone over just my year of playing it. Anyways, there it is, cheers all! I hope I incur no wrath in posting this, and I will not be offended if this comment gets shut down or removed for being too similar to a demand for the three letter N word! Dirty, dirty word...

Hey there! I've started a Multiplayer Dedicated server on Project Zomboid for playing with my friends without requirement of inviting them, so they can get in, but when I give myself admin from console, I have infinite carryweight and I can easily move very fast Items on my inventory and I don't want to have it. I have limited carryweight on backpacks, but I have infinite carryweight on normal Inventory. Is there any way, or command to stop having this Infinite Carryweight?

Another multiplayer request, maybe super simple? I'm wanting to bind my party to a shared fate/endgame. I think I have the effect I want (from Snake's Spiffo Skills Mod), but I can't figure out the right event to make it happen. The event would be something like "On player update, if player isdead," then I want this to happen for all online players: local dmg = ZombRand(5) + 15; player:getBodyDamage():getBodyPart(BodyPartType.ForeArm_L):AddDamage(dmg); player:getBodyDamage():getBodyPart(BodyPartType.ForeArm_L):setScratched(true); player:getBodyDamage():setInfectionLevel(1); So that effectively on player death, all other players become infected. If one player dies they take the party with them! Would anyone be able to make this happen for me or give me some advice?

If I were a braver man and weren't so scared of learning to code I would try to do this myself... Would it be tricky to throw together a mod that does something like this in MP (local co-op): -Trigger: Any player dies -Spawn 10 zombies near random player -Trigger noise on said random player to draw zeds to them immediately -Add a counter to create +5 additional zombies next time this event is triggered. Easy? Difficult? Could someone throw that together for me? I'm trying to get my buds to stop friggin dying all the time without consequence, while also adding a challenge for everyone else.

Enigma Edit: https://timee.io/20170823T1900 Countdown timer for those that do not trust our time-traveling shenanigans! Soon to be added to the IWBUMS public beta is an optimization made and discovered by Steve of BitBaboon that could optimize zombie transmission over the network quite a bit. This optimization limits the amount of zombie placement and zombie movement data that’s shared between players, while still keeping the online gameplay rolling. It has the potential to be quite a big deal, but we need to know just *how* big a deal. As such this Wednesday 23rd August at 7pm GMT (8pm BST, 9pm CEST, 2pm ET)* we will be running a test IWBUMS server with this running alongside Stas' previous 'Server Save' work. Anyone willing to jump on and play the game for an hour will AGAIN get a free Project Zomboid code to give to a friend/enemy/close family relation. All we need is for you to be running around on the server for an hour or so, and it’ll probably be quite a fun escapade. The only difference between this time and the last Megatest is that, to properly emulate a normal live PZ server, we will be capping the number of participants at 50. When the test is over, however, we will open the server a little wider. This does mean, however, that there will only be 50 Steam codes up for grabs for those initial testers. The fifty people who are online one hour after the event start (so an exact moment around/about 9pm BST) will be given a free PZ Steam code upon PM-ing an organiser with: The Steam ID number they were playing with. An in-game screenshot of the player scoreboard with your Steam account / character name visible. (Press ESC -> Players) No free codes will be handed out beyond this set time at/around 9pm BST. SERVER DETAILS: Test server is online and connectable! Just switch over to the IWBUMS build and find "IWBUMS Multi-Mega Test Two" on the server list to get there. Q. How do I get my Steam ID? Q. What should the screenshot look like? Q. How long will it take to get my key? *TIMEZONE CONVERTER https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html?iso=20170822T190000&p1=224&p2=75&p3=413&p4=179&p5=233&p6=tz_gmt&p7=136&p8=37&p9=367&p10=152

So In multiplayer I'm the leader of a faction and on our server we have safe-houses. I'd like there to be a second type of safe-house. It would be set as owned by a faction and anyone with that faction tag would be able to go in. Maybe they would all have access to the add a person to the safe-house feature or maybe only the faction leader would be able to add anyone who did not have the faction name or maybe if you don't have the faction name there is no way to add you... Any of those options would be fine with me as long as anyone within the faction, with the faction tag, has access to the house. This would be sooooo much easier... I have a safe-house in my name and I have to add anyone I want to have access but the house has kind of become our base and I have at least 9 people who consider that their main house or location or whatever. We all share food and items but also have individual rooms which you can give locking doors to. It would just be so nice if someone who was added to the faction, could go in without me having to be at the house and add them. I don't think it would be a hugely difficult change (however I know nothing of programming or anything)

"Play until you die" is great for single player but in private multiplayer servers, death means less. You don't want to stop at death because all of your friends are still in, but if you respawn you know it never ends. To prevent this cycle that ends in burnout for some, a leaderboard and admin conditions could make for a clearer endgame. Who can survive the longest character in a year? Who can end the most zombies? Who can maintain the longest original character? An in-game record of player bests could give players these endgame goals, while scripted win conditions could do even more. Any chance of seeing any of this?

i am starting to miss the old servers with no mods pvp/pve on and it kept my ping balance, nowadays we get servers with mods that completely ruins the entire game and increases lag everywhere and makes the game unrealistic and crashes it and there are some servers that have infection off which is no fun and how do u even call that a zombie apocalypse since no zombie cant hurt you? just pisses me off, i say please remove the mods in the servers, i think mods should be used on private servers which ppl use for them and their friends, i am requesting the game developers to bring back the official servers with no mods please.. i miss my game.. btw 32 build was the best build i have ever played probably much better than now cause there are no servers to play now.. I REPEAT REMOVE THE MODS! peace.

Hello - It's mini topic. Guys, how about an iron doors and iron walls that could not be broken with an axe? So if you really hide your things, it's safe and without a key you would not take them? Sorry for my English Yours faithfully, the guy from cold Russia.

Heya folks! I've been fiddling around and trying to get my server functional, but I've run to a problem that I just cannot figure out - don't know if it's a problem at my end, or if the early state of the alpha multiplayer is to blame. Anyway, here goes: My ports are open (16261-16326, both TCP and UDP ) and even tried setting the server outside the DMZ, with disabled firewall and Antivirus(Not recommended, but only for troubleshooting). People can connect, but after a short time interval new areas stop to load for them, locking the player down to a small limited area, with black borders around it. Zombies still are active and everything in the limited playable area is functional. Manually disconnecting or attempting to quit at this point crashes the player client. Such issue does not appear on other servers for me, only on mine so far. Here are the excerpts from the consoles when the 'incident' happens, both server and client. Server Console: java.net.BindException: Address already in use: JVM_Bind at java.net.DualStackPlainSocketImpl.bind0(Native Method) at java.net.DualStackPlainSocketImpl.socketBind(DualStackPlainSocketImpl.java:106)Loading cell: 166, 143 (38, 33) at java.net.AbstractPlainSocketImpl.bind(AbstractPlainSocketImpl.java:376) at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.bind(PlainSocketImpl.java:190) at java.net.ServerSocket.bind(ServerSocket.java:376) at java.net.ServerSocket.<init>(ServerSocket.java:237) at java.net.ServerSocket.<init>(ServerSocket.java:128) at zombie.network.PlayerDownloadServer$1.run(PlayerDownloadServer.java:349)Exception in thread "Thread-74" java.lang.NullPointerException at zombie.network.PlayerDownloadServer$1.run(PlayerDownloadServer.java:373)Client Console: Player Connect received for player Niuva id 0 (me)INDEX MISSPLACED -1 size 3INDEX MISSPLACED -1 size 3java.net.SocketException: socket closed at java.net.SocketInputStream.socketRead0(Native Method) at java.net.SocketInputStream.read(SocketInputStream.java:150) at java.net.SocketInputStream.read(SocketInputStream.java:121) at java.net.SocketInputStream.read(SocketInputStream.java:203) at zombie.network.GameFileClient.DoFileTransferZip(GameFileClient.java:497) at zombie.network.GameFileClient.access$000(GameFileClient.java:22) at zombie.network.GameFileClient$1.run(GameFileClient.java:233)receiveObjectChange AddRandomDamageFromZombiejava.net.SocketException: socket closed at java.net.SocketInputStream.socketRead0(Native Method) at java.net.SocketInputStream.read(SocketInputStream.java:150) at java.net.SocketInputStream.read(SocketInputStream.java:121) at java.net.SocketInputStream.read(SocketInputStream.java:203) at zombie.network.GameFileClient.DoFileTransferZip(GameFileClient.java:497) at zombie.network.GameFileClient.access$000(GameFileClient.java:22) at zombie.network.GameFileClient$1.run(GameFileClient.java:233)java.net.SocketException: socket closed at java.net.SocketInputStream.socketRead0(Native Method) at java.net.SocketInputStream.read(SocketInputStream.java:150) at java.net.SocketInputStream.read(SocketInputStream.java:121) at java.net.SocketInputStream.read(SocketInputStream.java:203) at zombie.network.GameFileClient.DoFileTransferZip(GameFileClient.java:497) at zombie.network.GameFileClient.access$000(GameFileClient.java:22) at zombie.network.GameFileClient$1.run(GameFileClient.java:233)When the client tries to disconnect the server / exit the game, the client crashes.

We have single player sandbox, and multiplayer sandbox. So... how about multiplayer versions of the challenge scenarios too? Who's with me?!!

Me and a friend have thinking they should port this game to consoles. I think it would be great for a port since my friend has an Xbox One and me too. He does not have a pc to play this game on. Also since there is already controller support for the game then i thought why not put this game on consoles? But i think it's just more work for the devs and that's why it's more of a 'to bother' suggestion. Just had this suggestion in mind ever since i started playing this game by my own on my pc. I'd say i'd be great to see it maybe this year, or after the huge updates they've planned (animes, npc, etc...) comes out. Thank you for you time reading this, i just wanted to suggest it and get it out of my mind.

Greetings! I think it's time to reveal the current mod I'm working on: SpiffoHunt SpiffoHunt is a Capture-the-Flag-like gamemode where two teams fight each other to (obviously) capture the Spiffo and have it as long as possible in their own safezone. I've worked on this for ages, but lost all the work a couple of months. So this is pretty much the second time I started coding this. Some basic things are currently working, but the mod is far from useable right now. Because of the bigger scope I would really appreciate it if some of you fellow coders are interested in helping with the mod. As my previos mods the sourcecode is hosted on github, that's also where you can find more information about it. I know that this post is currently pretty barren, but as stated above: All of this is far from finished/even working! Sneakpeeks: Link to github

Greetings, kinda stuck with LuaNet and really need your help guys. I want to transfer an inventoryitem (basically a table) with LuaNet, but for some reason it doesn´t send the table as payload, instead I receive an empty table transmitted. So what I want to do in a nutshell: local player = getPlayer(); local inv = player:getInventory(); module.sendPlayer(getPlayer(),"senditem", inv); (Maybe @turbotutone might know what´s going on there)

how can i send to server and sync to clients an updated character facing direction, after using player:faceLocation(float x, float y); client side?

So while renting a VPS is still a completely legitimate thing that you can do and so is hosting on your local computer, a couple of people don't want to go through the technicalities of setting up a VPS, or don't want to have a server running off a poxy personal computer. That's cool, this is the thread for you. The aim is to gather feedback from users of these hosts and show some reviews, ranking of them in one consolidated thread. The info here is not necessary to know, however if you wish to post a hoster or something along those lines you will want to read it. Each hoster will have their own section where we will give links, link or quote to user reviews in this thread or even link the threads hosters make themselves or link to replies hosters make in this thread. We will add hosts to the list as long as someone can post a link to their page and the hosts support Project Zomboid. I must ask that you DO NOT POST REFERRAL LINKS I obviously can not verify these hosts so you must use them at your own risk. Should you encounter a problem with a hoster regarding legitimacy feel free to send me a PM and once I check the complaint they may be removed from the list if necessary. I am not someone to voice your customer service grievance with. If however a host receives a lot of negative attention, I will remove them from the list. I will also be skeptical with reviews. If the user who posts the review is brand new, I'll be less inclined in linking it in the main post. Enough talk, here is the list. Remember tell me of any others you might know of. Website Country: Sweden(?) (Servers hosted in a few locations in the US and EU.) Cost: Each slot costs €0,99. Website Country: France(?) (Servers hosted in Canada/France) Cost: 8 slots cost €7,99 Will add more when more come to my attention. Website Country: US (Servers hosted in US and Europe) English/German support staff. Cost: €.97/month per slot. Accepts GBP and USD Website Country: Servers in multiple locations (such as US and Netherlands) Cost: Depending on ammount of RAM, no slot restrictions. 20 USD/month for a server with 1.5 GB RAM. Website Country: Europe, Canada and USA Cost: $7.42 | £4.99 | €6.84 per GB RAM (ranging from 1.5 to 8.5 GB RAM) Thread Website Country: Germany (Servers hosted in multiple locations) Cost: Servers start at €4,00 come with so many different options, slots appear to go up to 200.

I sometimes play with a friend and we always like to play pranks on each other.... and I always thought while he is AFK, it would be really fun to plant something in his pocket, or pickpocket him.... This could be very cool in multi-player, for example you know a horde is incoming and you decide to sacrifice one of your friends to aid your escape, you quickly set an alarm, plant it in his pocket while he remains calm and wait for your chance to make a run for it! or maybe you're bored and decide to fill your friends backpack with a few logs to slow him down and wait for him to notice

I've tried using the PZ Map Tool but did not succeed, it just puts items in some places help me plz

Does anyone know if there is a way to track days survived/zombies killed within a server? I've been running a server where players "win" by holding highest kills or longest survival at the end of a year. Players submit this info to me with screencaps which I use to update the server message board which displays the most current leaders. Is there a way to have this information tracked and updated automatically? Thanks for any help/ideas/suggestions!
