WTF!

In turbo's branch it's fixed, but not here

 

Btw, It would be great when you dismantle a radio/walkie, the battery appears in the same way that other components...

Some moveable objects can not be destroyed by zombies (attack).

(sofa, TV……)

 

In addition, we still can not translate the names of these movable objects?

So if I right-click and "Walk to" an area and fast forward I'll stop? 

 

ugh. Terrible.

So, will lighters have their "charges" increased? Will smoking a cigarette use less than it takes to start a fire? Because a full standard lighter will light literally hundreds and hundreds of cigarettes. (Hell, as it stand even when lighting fires in-game, lighters run out way too quickly. Again, a standard cigarette lighter will light hundreds of fires.) A regular "BiC" lighter will light up to 3,000 times. 

A standard full book of matches will light 20 cigarettes. 

 

That is to say, if using the lighter for this purpose will use any charges at all.

If it was fixed in Turbo's branch then it should be here too, Turbo just didn't gave me the full changelog probably...

 

Dedicated should be in 36 tho

This.

 

Give us bicycles, skateboards, rollerskates - SOMETHING so we can cover long distances! Without the walk to /fast forward method, the western farm by the pony-roam-o is basically off limits for me now, it just takes too damn long in real life to get there.

[Guest]

Eh, it takes all of 15-20 minutes to walk/run to most areas on the map. It's not as long as it feels and shuold be regarded as a challenge like any other. The writing was on the wall for movement while fast forwarding anyway, since normal movement disables fast forwarding, anyway.

 

If you want faster travel, rather than demand TIS implement vehicles right this minute you can just use mods.

[cheeley]

I'm not demanding vehicles right this minute.

 

I have limited gaming time. I like Zomboid SP because I can play it in 20 - 30 minute chunks when I get a chance. Spending one of my 20 minute chunks running in a straight line is not my idea of fun.

I just tested in a new game and it's fixed.

Sorry for the confusion...

 

Btw, some problems with concrete road block...

 

 

It's like a wall, you can't see the other side, and when attempting to dismantle it, it shows this error...

Then visit one of the many side areas along the way. Plan your trips. Take a tent with you.

 

Survive.

Just going to point out that just because this one time we were able to find a solution (VCRedist 2013) that's no excuse for not keeping your system up to date. if there's problems preventing you from updating it, then that falls to you to solve it.  The game "not being GTA 5" is no reason to ignore it's requirements or think they're un-necessary.

 

We got lucky that it was possible to downgrade.

It was just convenient to use fast-forward walking trick to save your character's stamina for covering long distances and having enough breath to fight AND saving your IRL time. Especially when Obese and Unfit. Or when walking with a generator and 20 logs in your backpack from the other side of the city. Or just the generator, for that matter.

 

Oh, well.

FINALLY! I can play again after the VCREDIST 2015 update didn't allow me to! Thanks Devs! 

[sugarskull]

Loving the multi-tile item move, but I'm now getting lots of errors when trying to dismantle stuff (sinks, toilets, doors) via metalworking or carpentry.

 

Tried to get the relevant stuff from the console, if that helps:

There is a mod that adds vehicles, that fills that neat little gap that you and i experience. 

But the real pain is in MP, i still dont know how people do the trips in modded maps like, the game map becomes huge, i just dont see the appeal of running that time either. 

[Chugawuga]

Hi There,

Thanks for the update.

Also getting an error every time I try to either dismantle something or pickup an object larger than 1 tile

The main advantage of going far, far away is that others often don't follow.

 

So you pick regular encounters with not so nice fellows vs. one epic journey to New Denver. This also means better loot distribution: if everyone spawns in Muld, Muld becomes bare, then everyone is forced to spread out over time to collect (excessively horde) more supplies.

Hi Robert, do you have any plans to increase the drop rate of jars and lids?

 

I and most players I've spoken to have either never found any or have found 1-2 max per play through. It would help gameplay through the winter as you can only really eat cans and trap birds currently through that season.

Not really, specially now I added box of jars & lids + freezer, I think it's balanced, it's not intended to be easily foundable as it'll ruin the whole survive during winter
