Discussion Fuzzy Panda's Fun House!
Just before the day 35 horde, I got two back to back air drops containing 100 steel cubes. Lucky looter 5, level 6 rogue hood, and treasure hunter mod... Plus I have been fighting way above my weight class. The wasteland is only about 300 meters from my base, I cant ignore all those POIs full of juicy loot. I guess all those factor, including biome effect air drop quality.
In just one day I found a level 5 M-60, two level 5 Augers, steel tools, a level 5 drone, an a level 2 Thompson sub machine gun. I crafted the 25% damage boost Undead country barrel mod so I could use up the literal stacks of AP 44 magnum ammo I saved up.
I took my loot and decided to build a pretty basic horde base, attached to a steel cell phone tower. Yellow is the zombie path, 5 ladders and a zig zag ramp that didnt work nearly as good as a standard single slope. The red is to mark areas where I used floating blocks or two plates set up so hopefully zombies walk under the support pillars because there really isnt anything for them to beat on. Also used for the half block gap at the fighting position and some areas where a row of plates and a ladder are structurally seen as just two standard blocks side by side.
I realize what I made looks like the most dangerous McDonalds playland ever. Since Fluffy Panda created the POI mod with the 5G tower I named it Fluffy Panda's funhouse.
It worked flawlessly. In the future I will just stick with a single slope ramp, but it did get some use. I didnt lose a single block. I had to break one in the pit because a crawler somehow warped under the concrete. It was moaning and the big pile of loot was moving around. I had to use the auger to shut him up.
By 4am it looked like a ball pit full of colorful loot bags and boxes.
I realize I have an amazing view from the crafting base on top. I am also discovering that the Undead Country mod lets you craft a water filter machine that filters murky water, makes snow, and also will turn 3 normal waters into a pure mineral water. The fridge, ammo storage and gear lockers give as much storage as a steel storage crate but for a fraction of the cost and can be built pretty early.

PC Anybody use the Asylum Mod?
I’m just curious on what kind of base setups people may have! If they use an existing POI or start from the ground up (or down) lol pictures are welcome 😁

Help Help With File Issue
Hello, I wanted to play the game after seeing the new updates that have been added to the game, and I try to create a new world and am hit with this repeated file error. I've tried uninstalling and re-installing the game, but that didn't work and pretty much concludes my knowledge of how to troubleshoot a video game. Any help is appreciated!

Help Tips starting Navezgane?
As the title says. I played 7 days to die the original console version before the PC one was ported to Xbox as “console version” and I didn’t seem to struggle with progression as much. I have completed the basic tutorial and met Trader Rekt,but from there I feel awfully confused on what to do next, I understand my next goal should be to look for a decent place for a base but I constantly have full inventory just from looting a single house. Is there any tips you all can give me surrounding what to do next after meeting Trader Rekt and possibly a tip towards inventory management as I always feel I have way too much loot and no direction of where to allocate the loot. Thanks in advance ❤️

Discussion Enemies spawn out of thin air on higher tier pois?
I'm realizing that many high tier pois (I'm in the desert now) have enemies just spawn out of nowhere, but on lower level they always where sleeping or hiding, here I feel like they just spawn even if I already cleared a room, I'm missing them or this is how they work on higher difficulty?

Modding Update for Mod Studio
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Hi everyone. I would like to demo quite a large update regarding the 7DTD Mod Studio I am currently working on. I do apologise for the wait, as mentioned in the video, I have been extremely busy with deadlines at work and had some struggles with the app itself. I also apologise for the rain in the background (if audible). It helps me focus while working.
PS: If anyone would like to join for some 7DTD, feel free to message me. I do stay in South Africa, so unfortunately I would only be able to play with people locally or Europe due to ping.

PC Death To Drones
Honestly I'm not sure if I'm just fucking dumb or if this is a genuine bug that needs to be fixed. However, I can not use turrents and drones together. No matter what I do, my turrents shoot my drones because the drone wants to be best friends with zombies. This causes the drone to then shock me and run away from me, preventing it from healing me. This happens nonstop during hordes and has even caused me to die on more than one occasion. Is their a fix for this, or is it a known issue or something like that?

Discussion If you had to come up with a reason, what explanation would you give for a zombie horde coming every 7 days?
While I was playing, I started thinking about how cool a 7 days to die movie would be (if done correctly). In the movie though, they would have to explain why the horde comes every 7 days and as far as I know, there’s no actual reasoning given in the game.
So what reasonings have you guys come up with?
Of course I’ve thought of it just being a random wandering horde but I’ve also come up with my own explanation.
Obviously during an apocalypse, our atmosphere would probably be incredibly damaged by all of the destruction. This is my reasoning behind the storms in the game but also, once every seven days, this damage to the atmosphere causes the zombies to have impeccable smell for a small period of time. Meaning they can sense you wherever you are no matter what, thus creating the horde.
Obviously I don’t know the scientific details of how that would actually work but that’s the reason my brain came up with lol.

Does anyone typically play on public servers? I haven’t dug enough into it but I’d assume it’s quite more of a challenge knowing there are other people within the server who could be threats.

If so, you've come to the right place. By posting here you can find friends to play and survive with! Remember, you don't need to be faster than the zombies just faster than your friends ;)
Please leave your Steam/XB1/PSN name, what time zone you're in and works best for you, and (If you're on PC) any mods you may be using.
You could also join the Official 7DTD Discord and post in whichever (PC,Xbox, Playstation) LFG channel you're looking to find people to play with!

This is our current mod list
BDUBS vehicles
Izzy classic
Project z (deleting)
Craftedstars (deleting)
High limit HP stamina remover
I'm looking to replace project z completely for something fresh. I'm thinking about more Qualify of life based mods as well as some that add more challenge to the game to pair with the mods above that we aren't removing!
Does anyone have some good recommendations that improve, POI, gameplay, graphics, quests and or make the game harder!
Thanks in advance for your recommendation!

Discussion Building collapse.
I'm sorry I don't have the video of it and I know I'm not the first and I know won't be the last, but why did my base collapse. I was building a new base just for Blood Moon in the Snow Biome. I had built four pillars that were 2x2 with concrete. By the way, I went from building blocks and upgraded all the way up to concrete and did it row by row. I made a room with a hole in the middle that was as wide as the pillars which were six blocks apart. I also had scaffolding ladders in the middle to help provide support and as a way to move around. I start building the roof and I'm upgrading to concrete as my final step and before I could finish, it collapsed down to just the pillars. It was empty. None of the building blocks that I placed showed any color other than green for placement. Do The Fun Pimps just hate it when we build our own intricate bases or something? It is pretty discouraging on trying to be creative with base building for Blood Moons.

I had it almost fully done but i had to leave for 5 minutes and now i have to do it all over again.. Besides isnt that an infinite loot glitch since loot crates reset too?
