"I'll bite your legs off!" - 7 Days to Die (Ep.24)

[@SBChaevok]

The Blade Traps - They are extended just over the zombie heads due to the stairs. You can push the stairs back a block or two and it would be in line with ttheir heads. I've run blade traps like that before. WOrks fine. Also, use electric fences in line with the traps at the top of the stairs after you extend them. Great vid as always Tem. In today's setup, they are literally just half a block under the trap in the game's eyes.

[@assko11]

Or just put them inside of the building, above the electrical doors

[@mechanical_chaos]

​@@assko11 This is what I was thinking. Way less construction work and probably looks nice.

[@SBChaevok]

@@mechanical_chaos The problem I think he's trying to avoid putting them inside the house is explosions and errant cop puke. Putting it outside before they get damaged prevents more dmg to the traps.

[@bannankev]

22:43 you can see the repair block went and ticked (highlighted yellow) to the steel above the fighting position. Pretty neat it’s helping out during horde night keep stuff tip top 😆

[@ssmith3573]

"For having worked on this base every single day, there's still a ton of work left to do." Almost like there are consequences to a horde every night. Loving watching the iterations of the base design. Alas I couldn't get my friends to bite on doing a horde every night run for the next playthrough we do.

[@IaIaCthulhuFtagn]

Because of the stairs the zombies aren't getting their heads at the proper height to be chopped until they are already past the blades. Just flip them to the interior wall and they should work fine.

[@moonshock]

You could put the blade traps on the inside opposite to where you had them on the outside. It’ll still look aesthetically pleasing and will still hit them on the head for those headshot days. All you’d need to do is open up three blocks of the ceiling and it’s wood anyway so easy-peasy. That’s what I’d do at least. 😊 Really enjoying this particular series. Your channel truly is criminally under subbed, my friend.

[@Jasenspeed401]

Great series!! Loving every minute of it! Lot of fun!! At the 15:59 time mark, I strongly urge that you make a Steel ladder for the zeds to use. Between their flailing about, cop-puke and your bombs, all of that damage adds up to wrecked ladders early on if you use any of the weaker materials. Also, if they are trapped in the pit, that's fine, but they might just start undermining the building as a whole; we know how much these zeds love to dig. Anyroad, keep up the great work! Can't wait for the next video!

[@mitchelkral8190]

Perhaps powered doors above the ladders where's bomb chute lanes are at to keep them down there confirming they get hit with the explosion?

[@ericharris1853]

Can’t wait for your next episode

[@jccmuir]

If you shock falling Zs they glitch through blocks when they land. You had the same problem in your bedrock series. Also as already mentioned, blade trap position was fine, its the stairs messing it up :)

25:05 We have another friendly zombie waving hello! 🤣

[@carrot1977]

I was about to mention that while watching, when Tem focused on the waving arm 😂😂

[@ampeg187]

14:22 - also i think you should lower the bouderies of land claim block cuz it works also for Auto repair one. So it will repair blocks closer to the base EDIT: 15:02 - look on the right side near the wall, its reparing random block, worth to take that wall off completely and fix a pad a bit.

[@ReclusiveZ-GamingwithDragons]

The military zombie was giving off some Montry Python Black Knight vibes when he bit GNS ankle. I'll bite your legs off!

[@syphon583]

For the blades traps, the problem isn't the orientation, it's that the zombies' heads aren't coming into contact with the blades since they're coming from below This is clear since the blades are hitting some of the zombies, likely the taller ones.. If the blades were orientated off an arm, it wouldn't fix anything, in fact it might make the problem worse. I would either place the blades on either side of the doorway, thereby making them lower to the stairwell. Or place them in the same spot, but on the opposite side of the wall. It still won't hit spiders, but it should contact all walking zombies.

[@86Kiaser]

For the bade traps, maybe put them head level on the right side. As that would be where the blades come down?

[@neuro3423]

The zapping as they fall will also help with Destroy Area Mode

[@jamesbrassfield8409]

That zombie wanted to say hi

[@Mr1DragonLord]

After glocks Higashi loot bag series I wouldnt mind never seeing another loot bag again. Unless I need brass.....

[@leenomedal-lafon5994]

Great performance and glad the base is working for you. A thought on your blade trap issue. Could you not put a horizontal 'arm' going straight out from the main wall, parallel to the travel of the zombies over the stairs and then put a trap upside down onto it so that it clips their heads as they reach the top of the stairs? Just a thought... really good series!

[@lvparm]

Can I just say your music choices for these edits are just,, top notch 👏🏻

[@richardwells9786]

If you go 2 repair blocks load them with different materials. E.g. one cobble and the other cement, that way they target and repair different blocks.

[@Spicy6969]

Maybe bring the blade traps in 1 towards you for them to hit their head.

[@DefiantFC3S]

What about setting up the blade traps on an "arm" but in like an inverted mount? Like a ceiling fan.

[@ryanclapp6467]

The waving hand! lol!

[@GamingAfter50]

Great fight! That penetrator perk is well worth it, until Demos, then it gets interesting! Love the idea of the "hollow" wall, it will be interesting to see how the zombies react to that. 👍

[@micflynn1]

Put a 45 deg block above doors with blade traps attached to get the trap to chop at 45 deg with ground...

[@thocknell]

make a moat or something to slow the zombies or have sentry's no the perimeter to temporarily lessen the horde temporarily.

[@AeroSW]

The idea on the Double Plate block may work up until the ground, where I believe the zombies will just see it as a path to walk through. Maybe at the bottom of it, you can use some of the 4 grouped ramps, and just lightly nudge the zombies falling inside of your wall into the pit.

[@paybackntf4017]

Very satisfying to see a night go almost perfect

[@wolfnight6791]

i think you should move the stairs back one block and that will do it for you

[@noxkraven4985]

Try putting wood spikes into the pit and then upgraded it up to steel

[@akuokami1677]

11:50 if there is a church at the end of that road thats where i live i call it coyote pass

[@StevenMcnutt]

They're running under the blade traps, you need to extend by one block out on the stairs to the fighting position.

[@hoppie538]

Blade traps are not working all the time because of the stairs. You could place them an the inside of the base instead of the outside. Love this series.

[@ericharris1853]

Oh and what will wooden spikes do in your pit will it help? Because I don’t know if it will kill the smell zombies and not the taller ones but idk 🤷‍♂️

[@jeffrobagman2834]

16:43 double headshot! Edit: I'm a lumberjack and I'm OK, i got no arms and i got no legs...

[@robertnesbitt4556]

For the plate double thing - do it on the side of the base, by the spot lights, and you will need double wide, maybe 3 blocks to full break pathing. You could also do the JaWoodle force field (a ramp plate filler upside down, and a road stripe). Power - You might want to start running traps on one bank and lights on another bank. Or at least consider it. Pit, since the 3 lanes are so close, you should do 2 plate blocks, like the beltway around the base, it will keep them separated but still have enough area so the falling zombies completely fit inside. and maybe a ramp plate filler over the top block so there is a "tip"

[@samiam4544]

Fighting a horde and getting a handy at the same time. Next level multitasking.

[@CutieCatori]

You managed to hit up the house in Diersville that my ex, his brother and I turned into our base. That was the second house and the first house was my OWN base when I played by myself afterwards.

[@KyleModifier]

I think the blade traps aren’t working because they are technically over the stairs and one block down therefore not hitting the zombies. I think that the block you are wanting to use for the walls would work great!

[@GunsNerdsandSteel]

Turns out, in that orientation, the zombies are moving too fast to reliably contact the blades. At least in my testing

[@maximilien885]

The drop down wall just has to be below where they are breaking, the wall they are breaking could still be solid

[@kennethwillis6936]

Take a layer off the ceiling just inside the zombie entrance. Then place the blade traps inside the base on the block three blocks above the powered door. Add a second repair block on the other side of the base and a third in the attic above the zombie entrance. And cool idea with the double plate blocks. Curious to see if it would work.

[@dracoten23]

If you had maybe 3 repair block, 1 doing concrete+cobble, 1 doing trap components, and one doing like wood and extra that way theres no overlap on repairs and spreads the workload

Move the stairs one block back, and the old bladetrap setup will work fine.

[@mikeriley2475]

Double plates huh? Only one way to find out!

[@theovermynd3930]

I think if you just added a little bit of a landing at the top of the stairs so they are walking straight and not up as they move into the blade trap it would work!

[@nightmaresnake7050]

Your awesome you make 7 days into a show

[@saskiawillems9435]

The bladetraps arent really protected against damage or spit where you put them now... maybe push 1 bloc back and have a protection bloc on the same row in front somewhere. Love the content. Thank you.

[@Neverblade911]

Looks like the zombies are basically ducking under the vertical blade traps... i think they would need a flat runway for them to be effective

[@Equitine]

21:21 the trap is working if slightly there are a few there with your camman where the blood splat was showing but i think its because zombies are moving through that small space quickly enough its only giving one in x amounts as actual hits.

[@morticiatrollsgaming5476]

What mods do you have on your spear that makes it one hit in the head every time or do you just have insane luck?

[@XBOXGTDSMCR]

That's why I believe wandering hordes should have a screamer in them to make them more of a threat. I know if you get your heat map up they'll spawn in blah blah blah but I think in random words a screamer should spawn. And if you're in the wasteland biome or you're at a high enough game stage then there should be a possibility of getting one or two maybe even three screamers

[@GunsNerdsandSteel]

I would definitely welcome a vanilla setting to alter the threat of screamers. I love the screamer difficulty in Darkness Falls where you have to REALLY account for them

[@XBOXGTDSMCR]

Right. Screamers arent really a threat I mean they are but they're not I think it would be cool if they would turn the crawlers into screamers. Make those little bastards more of a threat instead of an annoyance that sneaks up on you and smacks you in the toe. Or have the chance that a random zombie could be a screamer not just the traditional screamer look but like I don't know one of the other lady zombies could potentially be a screamer or something now that would make it interesting

[@mrexz7107]

Only me scrolling building parts?😅

[@Gochen86]

Why not just put the stair-top blade traps on the inside of the doorway (above the pole) instead of outside (above the stairs)? That way they'd be chopping heads instead of just barely missing them due to the stairway angles putting the zombies just out of range. That said, gotta love the undead shenanigans in this one. Recreating the Monty Python Black Knight, trying to grab ya through the wall even after being killed again, ninja bird popping outta nowhere and sitting on nothing like "Hi, I'm here, end me please."

[@ericharris1853]

Oh and why not make more concrete that way you can make the hole base concrete but like I sed it’s your game and how well is that fixing block will it a lot to long to fix everything does it have the same range as a claim block or bigger or smaller? And if you have two will they work together or will one not work ?

[@tombo3342]

Put the blade traps on the inside of the wall. So they run under them on level ground?

[@iLLSniper]

War3zuk overhaul next?

[@Jasenspeed401]

The blade traps at the top of the stairs; this is a great idea and they are positioned perfectly. What you need is a flat platform at the top of the stairs in front of the entrance. That way, the blades will hit the zeds. Right now, it looks as though most of the zeds are literally walking under the blades and onto the path on the steel doors, so they are NOT getting hit.

[@Wanderinpaladin]

The original configuration for the Blade Traps would work if you moved all the stairs out one block The problem is they are running up the stairs and sometimes just missing the trap. Especially in the case of Steve Tom and Arlene. I think the double plate will work for blocking the path but it opens you up to Cops since anything less then a full block might as well be glass.

[@skyknight6467]

[@DarkPegasus87]

As for the plan with the wall, it would become an improvised elevator if it didn't break their pathing. Worth it in my opinion. If they want to go that way, they can put themselves in a loop.

I'm an experienced vanilla player starting a Darkness Falls playthrough for the first time, however I don't know what POIs are good for a horde base and would like some overall advice for the mod, could someone help?

[@dainbramage9508]

I made a "floating" base once using the smallest corner cylinder block and rotating them so that 4 were butted up next to each other and the space between was 1.92m effectively, functionally the game sees it as supporting my base and the zombies see full blocks that they suddenly fall through, if you leave those quarter walls next to your blade traps the zombies will attempt to walk on them and break through your weaker walls

Instead of the plate double go with a cat walk the double will break just like your wooden doors you had they will clip on to the side of it if you can walk on it so can they basically if you can do it so can the zombies us the cat walk you can make a floating wall they can’t hit you can make the walls in to two more paths you can use to kill them or them killing you but it can stop your base from collapsing on you I was thinking do the same thing as your Stairs the reinforcement you used on the you can do the same thing do the inter Indian outer part it will do the same thing as your double piece but will be some what stronger then one piece that’s acting like one

I've thought about it. I played it for about 20 hours and while I find the game to be enjoyable, I don't think it makes for very exciting/entertaining youtube content. The pace is VERY slow and with my editing style the videos would end up being very short with very long recording times. Kind of like Ark, where I could record for 10 hours and get a 25 minute video. Just not a very efficient use of time.
