You can use the electric fence post just upside down to shock the dogs and spiders on the first block. This way you dont need to put extra half blocks on the path. You can place the fence post to a roof block with on face rotating mode or just simply rotate it to upside down on its own (it just looks weird). I always used to use it this way, because so I dont have to lower it one block in to the floor.

Thank you and welcome aboard!! We appreciate the feedback! I think I may have adjusted my audio settings since this video but I am always looking to improve the audio quality. Thanks for bringing it to our attention. For cops at least, I do have a couple videos dedicated to them specifically :) For cops at least, it is all about obstructing line of sight to the player as they reach your fighting position. If you intend to eliminate them directly, try to construct your base to make headshots as easy as possible so you can take them out quickly. Of course you could also rely on traps to do the dirty work but make sure you have enough dps to take them out before they explode. A similar strategy can be used for demos. Speaking of which, NEVER use grenades/molotovs into a swarm of enemies with demos. You will cause them to detonate so at higher GS, always look before tossing an explosive. The best way to deal with demos is to either let traps eliminate them or by completely ignoring them and let them run an endless loop. Again if you have an easy headshot base, that can be pretty reliable though that is more dependent on your steady aim to take them out without blowing your base to hell.

It is more than just a pure 11 block distance from the player. I've done plenty of bases in which I am far beyond 11 blocks distance, but the zombies fall a shorter distance down (like 8 or 9 blocks) and consistently go into rage mode. In his test setup that worked, he was 11 blocks high, but in effect further than 11 blocks from the actual landing position to the player.

Luv your stuff. BUT... Much of it is way too OCD. KISS is a principle I like to follow if possible. I found experimenting with the "Wood Base Challenge" an excellent teacher for me, a relative noob. A day 168 (7 day weeks, which is the 24th week) hoard base made from wood helped me to understand the game and keyboard use. I have used some of your ideas and many of my own to craft my own all wood bases that are viable up to and probably beyond day 168. All this for no more than about 300~400 wood blocks. That's equal to 3,000~4,000 pieces of wood. I know it is fun to DM and CM these bases but not really practical because the time and resources needed could be much better spent on other things. Keep it up coz great stuff.
@pseudoposse
10 ай бұрын
I do love to obsess over my designs lol, guilty! You could easily use lots of these tips in a wood base design if that is more your style. The wedge narrows especially are an excellent choice for a wood base. I had created a working cobblestone base using wedge narrows and the 1/2 pillar 0.025 side centered shapes (shown somewhere in the video, and a separate video on the channel) built of a cliffside that probably uses about 150-200 blocks. That could also be converted to wood with some minor changes to account for wood's lower horizontal support. I can definitely understand the desire to spend time doing other things instead of resource gathering. That is why I have taco in our playthroughs to grab it all for me so I can build and fulfill my OCD :D

Hey man, great video! New to the channel :) This gave me inspiration to keep my horde base as simple as I can. I'm using just a simple 12 block high 4x4 tower with a clear path to me made by 3 ramps with triangular catwalk for ramps corner protection, a line of 10 centered security gates with 3 or 4 csg every 2 or 3 bloks to make them jump and 2 Robotic Sledge Hammers and 2 Robotic Turrets at the very end. Spikes on top for stupid birds and a grenade hole for dogs. In about 200 hr of gameplay no stupid zombie reached my "fight" position. No traps whatsoever. Not a single swing from my Baton. Just me and my 4 Robotic friends. Robotic Turrets ammo are NOT a waste of resource, 'cause you only need lead to make tons even at day 2 (int build). I will make some elettrtic fences and 3 other pathways (one for side) with the "open close doors" to reroute the stupid AI, eventually. I love your 1 block ladder cheesing method, I will give it a try. Thanks for sharing your knowledge :)
@pseudoposse

Welcome to the channel! No problem happy to share :) Simplicity is king, glad I can impart some knowledge to improve your design. Your setup sounds good and the robotic friends will definitely do the trick. The one block ladder works quite well, just make sure to scale it up a bit if doing later hordes. A single ladder can be swarmed and destroyed by later hordes so having extra ladders with the diagonal is a good idea. You can also put a block above the diagonal to prevent any zombies from climbing on top of each other if the ladder is too short or you don't kill them fast enough.

here's a thing that i have been doing. i just build a horde base and place my forges, work benches and storage out in the open 150 meters or so from my horde base. i have noticed that the zombies do not touch that stuff. i also place my horde base (fighting position part), up against a trader compound, that helps direct the zombies to the stairs to get to me. what i would like to know is, will this set up still work in end game or with darkness falls or any other of that type of modding?
@pseudoposse
10 ай бұрын
So placing your benches/storage that far away should work in any mod during the horde as zombies will spawn 40 or so blocks from you; well within the 150 block distance from you and your base. As zombies have no reason to head towards your belongings, those should remain untouched no matter what mod you use. As for the trader compound, that may not work in other mods. I think some mods like DF remove the compound's indestructible state allowing the blocks to be destroyed. So building up against the side of a trader may provide as much protection as building up against a regular POI.

@pseudoposse
8 ай бұрын
As of alpha 21, zombies will spawn in water. You can prevent them from spawning in the region you built with player placed blocks but that is not very realistic to do in the water. It sounds like the only way into your base is from the shore? If you are standing far into the water, then the entrance to the shore would be too far away. If the zombies feel the direct path to you is too long, they'll beat on your structure instead of walking the path. You'll need to create a path from within the water to your main path to fix the problem. If you make a path in the water itself, they will follow it despite being able to swim over it. But the underwater path needs to connect to your main path, otherwise they'll ignore it. Hope that helps!

When I did a bridge design, I used London's Tower Bridge as my aesthetic inspiration...reason I liked that one is that it has the towers on either end which could be used as storage/living space or you could turn it into the area in which you defend. I chose the former and made the base on the bridge portion itself.

So what determines horde difficulty (called gamestage) is player level, days survived, and the difficulty setting. When you have multiple people in a party, it will increase gamestage. It has diminishing returns so 2 people won't double the gamestage.

Best Base build video EVAAAAH! Huge respect for the knowledge and effort into building the vid, can only imagine the amount of hours. Life changed a bit so been watching vids during comute, so haven't commented latetly. Curious for the next survivor couple series :) (this one saw at home) Also curious on GUI developments, wondering if you can affect more specific stuff like infected POI loot or book loot. I tend to play with min loot and noticed infected POI loot and books are probably unaffected by loot % . Lately have been hand tunning a map from the GUI and picking some POIs to do a city suvivor POI like those on zomboid in POI editor. Looking to do a future gen using them with GUI values for gen. Thx for the awsome content, from utility to entertainment.

Haha thanks, we appreciate that! It definitely was many hours between the both of us :) We are taking a little break from a playthrough series till we come up with a good idea. In meantime, we'll keep pumping out 7 days content as well as trying new games here and there. The GUI is still in development, been mainly focusing on adding new assets. I have plans for a bit of an overhaul mod which will be released in piecemeal as independent modlets in the GUI. Eventually, there will be an overhaul mod categories page in the GUI to configure the entire thing, plus you know all the individual mods as exists now. For loot stuff, it is definitely possible to change looting percentages of various loots in containers. However, that isn't POI specific, rather container specific. So say you change the loot rate of some item in a construction crate, it will affect all crates whether they are in a POI or out in the world. That being said, adjusting individual loot spawn percentages is definitely doable. Thanks for the support and glad you find us entertaining!

Once the map is done will tweek zeds so them become more like that game.

Wow, great video! :D I was even starting to think that my best horde base design might get exposed here, hehe. Seriously though, great job. This must have taken a long time to make. I tend to approach things a little differently in base designs I think though. I don't try to slow zombies down, but rather do all I can to expedite their path into the kill zone, for maximum xp & loot. Even to the point that I use machine gun turrets for birds to kill them at a distance, so they will die faster/sooner, and get out of the spawn table more quickly to make room for higher value zombies. Personally, I don't use trigger pates anywhere that zombies are pathing. Much too fragile. They are useful for players to trigger though, like your doors example. But you can also trigger traps manually, as the player, by stepping on them. Much faster & easier to use than a switch lever. There's also some ways of selectively damaging zombies of different types with traps, which is very useful for shaving down the health bar on 'big' zombies, before they enter the kill zone for full xp by player-kill. And, perhaps it should be obvious, but it's worth mentioning in a tips video, how daisy-chaining traps is like having x-mas lights which are wired in series instead of in parallel. Basically the whole line goes out when one trap goes out if they're wired in series. So you really want to wire them in parallel. It might not even seem like something which needs mentioning, but a LOT of players don't really grasp that issue. Neebs Gaming for example has been making that mistake for years on end now.
@pseudoposse
10 ай бұрын
Thanks I appreciate that! Agreed, in general, I connect things in parallel unless I need to daisy chain some triggers together to do something specific. Otherwise, I will use the max connections from my generator or switch to independently connect everything. Pressure plates are definitely fragile which is why you need to put them out of the line of fire or in a position where zombies don't rage. Otherwise, they'll go down extremely fast. Different schools of thought 😁. Funneling them quickly into a killzone will definitely give you lots of XP but I imagine it's a lot of upkeep for all the ammo, darts. Sometimes I go that route at times I feel overburdened by keeping all the traps maintained. Thanks again for the well thought out comment! Thanks for watching :)

@@pseudoposse just rewatched this video because there's a lot of good info in it, and noticed you had replied :) Forgot to mention that there are some ways to extend 'support' from the sides, rather than from below. The block-counting for support is kinda counter-intuitive in some ways. For example, if you have a single pillar going up to a 3x3 platform, you can build a beam out from that _further_ than you could if it was a 3x3 pillar to the ground. This is because your beam is effectively attaching to 4 sides of the support block, rather than 1. Effectively this means with a very wide span, you can collapse it by _adding_ support columns, depending on where they are. In the 3x3 platform example, if you build up the block in the 3x3 which borders the span beam, as soon as it becomes a support column, you reduce the number of accessed attach-points of the beam from 4 to 1, and it'll fall. Even though it _looks_ like more support, and rationally should be more support. - not sure if that would have enabled your bridge without support underneath, or not. But it _might_ have. As for the ammo and dart upkeep of a "high XP" design... my ideal layout is to selectively pre-soften tough zombies entering the target zone. Have a target zone which is junk turret friendly (even with demo's), those are cheap to operate. And ultimately the path beyond the target zone ends in some extra traps for trap-XP, if needed, and then an AFK design endpoint... so that basically you can go make a sandwich during the horde if you're really hungry ...or depending on how much iron & ammo you have collected/crafted that week. Basically make it scalable in uh... 'aggression'. But really, very little ever survives the target-zone... so if you want to use less ammo for less xp, just shoot slower. Also, a design which avoids significant repair costs (clear lines of fire, minimal blocks near pathing) leaves more time to gather iron & ammo. Like a Day-Anything base which only needs 100-200 concrete, or a couple hours in-game, to become like new again, gives you a lot more time for ammo & trap upkeep. And rifle and shotgun builds can be much more ammo efficient if the target zone is laid out correctly. An AP-rifle build, or shotgun which penetrates due to some wonky game code, can really do work. Even if the M60 or SMG-5 is more fun (and a little safer in POI's). I kinda set out to min-max base design to maximize XP & loot, accelerate K's, _AND_ take a bare minimum of upkeep to maintain. Kind of a 50 mpg formula 1, with a spacious trunk and plenty of seating. Basically a game-breaker base. Granted, I never tested such a design on darkness falls (which I saw some of your footage was using). In practice, I actually kinda avoid using a completely min-maxed design, cuz it trivializes gameplay. But that also means i haven't tested a really min-maxed design in DF... because I'm just not in the habit of using it regularly. Now that I think about it, I'm kinda curious how it would work in DF. It's an A18 design, which has remained unaffected in potency through A21 (except for electric fence height adjustment). But I've only loosely tested it in A19-21, cuz it's more fun to have risk while playing. Anyway, again, great video :)

3:29 "exception to the rule: if a door is used..." so this is hearsay, but I've heard that when calculating Hit Points for pathing resistance, doors and hatches are evaluated at half their max HP. You can test it out if you are interested.
@stevdor6146
10 ай бұрын
so for a math example, a 15k hp vault door is considered 7500hp of resistance, which is more than 1 block of 5k hp concrete, but less than 2 blocks of concrete (10k hp), since the door is 7500 hp over 2 blocks, its more favorable to do that than to break 2 concrete blocks of 5k hp each.
