    An auger is one of those things I found an ass-ton of schematics for, and a few parts, but never completed one.

    I think the game is cockteasing me.All I find are schematics. I have a almost 600 quality engine and 400+ql handlebars waiting for that precious auger blade.. that never appears.

    Also I forgot to mention, but day 8 saw a zombie bear/direwolf horde. Thankfully i had spikes down, and a sniper rifle on my roof.

    Ugh that auger! I've always either found the schematics but then can't find the parts or have all the parts and then a freaking schematic won't appear.

    Really need to get back in this as alpha 16 looks pretty cool!

    I need to spin up a server for this again. The last time I did it, I accidentally spun up an elastic Amazon server that respawned itself after I terminated it and cost myself $100 in unplanned charges. (Thankfully AWS customer service refunded it when they agreed it was an accident I didn't use.)

    Anyone got any good walkthroughs on setting up a server with the recent software?

    What is this I don't even.

    If you don't want to spend ANY money, I have a couple spare blades in my basement and a bitching internet connection. I can build us one, if you want?

    Oh wow, nice!

    Following-up: any desire for a PA server? I'll make sure I set up people as admins, too.

  • DarkewolfeDarkewolfe Registered User regular
    I appreciate the offer, but I'm mostly just looking to play with two buds in the evening as a method more of hanging out in voice chat than with any strong intention toward playing the game more often. Thank you though!

    Yup, I'd be down.

  • ButtcleftButtcleft Registered User regular
    My giant helical penis has thoroughly fucked the terrain around me.

    In one day I gained like 20 levels, and brought back enough shale to make 30,000 more gas.

    I have scrap iron for years, I am churning ou forged steel by the asston.

    and I am on Day 14.

  • BladeXBladeX Registered User regular
    All hail the helical penis, bringer of shale.

    Drill baby drill.

    And he drills!

    Oh my god did I drill! It was such a thrill

    Myar!

    Pass the Gas-o-line Can!

    And I say
    Hey! Yeah yeah yeah yeah
    Hey yeah yeah
    I said hey
    My best friend is now drill!!

    Alternatively
    Brothers of the mine rejoice!
    Drill, Drill, Drill with me
    Raise your drill and raise your voice!
    Sing, sing, sing with me
    Down and down into the deep
    Who knows what we'll find beneath?
    Diamonds, silver, gold and more
    Hidden in the mountain store
    Born underground, suckled from a teat of stone
    Raised in the dark, the safety of our mountain home
    Armor made of iron, steel in our bones
    To Drill and Drill makes us free
    Come on brothers sing with me!
    I am a dwarf and I'm drilling a hole
    Drilly Drilly hole, Drilly Drilly hole
    I am a dwarf and I'm Drilling a hole
    Drilly Drilly hole, Drilling a hole
    The sunlight will not reach this low
    Deep, deep in the mine
    Never seen the blue moon glow
    Dwarves won't fly so high
    Fill a glass and down some beer!
    Stuff your bellies at the feast!
    Stumble home and fall asleep
    Dreaming in our mountain keep
    Born underground, grown inside a rocky womb
    The earth is our cradle; the mountain shall become our tomb
    Face us on the battlefield; you will meet your doom
    We do not fear what lies beneath
    We can never Drill too deep
    I am a dwarf and I'm Drilling a hole
    Drilly Drilly hole, Drilly Drilly hole
    I am a dwarf and I'm drilling a hole
    Drilly Drilly hole, Drilling a hole
    I am a dwarf and I'm Drilling a hole
    Drilly Drilly hole, Drilly Drilly hole
    I am a dwarf and I'm Drilling a hole
    Drilly Drilly hole, Drilling a hole
    Born underground, suckled from a teat of stone
    Raised in the dark, the safety of our mountain home
    Armor made of iron, steel in our bones
    To Drill and Drill makes us free
    Come on brothers sing with me!
    I am a dwarf and I'm Drilling a hole
    Drilly Drilly hole, Drilly Drilly hole
    I am a dwarf and I'm Drilling a hole

    Random gen or the prefab world?
    Is there a way to import a custom map? I like the exploration aspect of random, but the prefab world makes more sense.

    Don't know. Lemmie research.

  • DietarySupplementDietarySupplement Still not approved by the FDA Dublin, OHRegistered User regular
    Okay, server is up. Should be listed as [PA] Giant Helical Penis.

    Password is the usual, lower case.

    If you are unsure what the password is, just remember that we're all nice guys.

    I prefer random gen, makes it more interesting since you dont know where anything is. the wonder of exploration.

  • ButtcleftButtcleft Registered User regular
    I played on the server for..i dont know how long.

    Its almost night on the first day, managed to find a house near a trader to shack up in for the night.

    Excellent! I tweaked the server settings a bit:

    - Upped loot to 120%
    - Days last 80 minutes, not 60, in real-time
    - Nightfall starts at 20:00 instead of 18:00
    - PvE

    Everything else is the same. If you haven't yet, add me as a friend on Steam. My next goal is to look into getting you guys access to the admin panel from outside my home domain (or maybe setting up VPN connections).

    Thanks for putting that together, will hop on at some point although if it's anything like last time someone put up a server I had a knack for going on just as night hits.

  • DietarySupplementDietarySupplement Still not approved by the FDA Dublin, OHRegistered User regular
    Yeah that's why I shrink the night window down a lot. I feel the default settings are just a tad unfair, especially if you've recently died.

    Dont take this the wrong way, but I;m good with not having admin.

    Alright, if you guys don't mind maybe I'll creep on your server at least a little and be a hobo.

    It's here for everyone. Share and enjoy.

    Server is capped at 16 players for now (anything over 8 gets dicey as-is) but if I need to increase it I can. Currently it's on an ESXi 6.5 host with 4 vCPUs and 32GB of dedicated RAM (the blade has 192 in it for now). I can go higher on both values if it gets sluggish. I've got 300 down/ 30 up going into the house too, so I'd love to hear about your ping times.

  • General_ArmchairGeneral_Armchair Registered User regular
    I'm tempted to give this game another play. Tis the season for zombie games after all. I never managed to get my hands on firearms on my last attempt at playing.

    I never bother with firearms, it's melee only for me.

    It would be nice to have one, even if it's normally not worth using it.

    I have no idea if they aren't worth it really. I'd just rather have six iron clubs then six boxes of bullets.

    I really liked my bow, but I had trouble finding feathers near my house after awhile. I don't know if nests eventually refill after enough time, but a friend who was playing destroyed every nest within a billion mile radius of home.

    theres was slight lag last night, but i'm not one to nitpick about it. Just means its not wise to do melee combat.
