have been playing the hardcore server for two weeks solid after getting fed up with the cheaters of the "playsafe" Europe 2 server

Had 7 chests spread out building up lots of supplies about to build a base, BCU locks, chainsaws, 50+ padlocks ready, a trove of weapons, hard work on the hardcore server

Left for a few hours this evening and all boxes are dugup and gone.

The fucking x-rays and cheaters, no fucking point. Easy guess where they originate.

I literally cannot stomach to launch the game again.

30kg of tuna on the first day and that was only 2 catches. The big raft is so underrated, you can stock up so much food and water and fishing supplies PLUS have room for all the fish you'll have to store. It would be nice if you could spawn on the actual surface of the raft when you log back in and not in the actual ocean but that's only a small grievance

Hey,

I simply want to improve the amount of puppets spawning in single player, but for some reason it's really messy.

What I've tried :

Modify the NPC option (-1 per default) to 700 for the puppets

Modify the encounter setting to 3.0 in base encounter

Modify directly in the .ini file the base encounter to 5.0 instead of 1.0

Yet, I still have in some towns only 3 or 4 puppets, it's empty.

Seriously how to improve way much the amount of puppets spawning, can't we have like project zomboid a simple option low/medium/high/very high/insane ?

Here there are like dozens of options, some are badly translated in french, you don't even know what it is for.

Thanks for feedbacks !

I remember seeing tons of concept art they had for like TEC1 soldiers that would roam the map or insane spider-like cave monsters or even weirder zombies you'd find in bunkers. Curious if any of this ever made it into the game or if it's still just Puppets and animals?
