Zombie Cops are becoming a MASSIVE problem! - 7 Days to Die (Ep.23)

[@coreyperez8817]

Tem: You need to create a break in the wall so that they don't see a viable path. Pick a pair of columns, like between your spotlights maybe, and remove all the blocks, then replace with blocks that they won't path over, like corner poles, or slope plate fillers. Then you can put sheets over the outside so that it looks like a solid wall again.

[@syphon583]

Seconded. I suggested nearly this exact idea to him the last video, but I highly doubt he was able to read it before doing this episode.

[@arnomeke1]

was just also gone suggest making a gap on the side of the outer stairs

[@swordvaporcat]

"Reverse the polarity!" ... totally a Star Trek thing! I really enjoyed following your thinking in your base upgrades. It was like I was Spock watching Kirk build a primitive cannon in the TOS episode "Arena"... "He knows, Doctor McCoy, he KNOWS. Recall your basic chemistry , Doctor..."

[@AmFFFers]

Tem: Zombie cops are becoming a Massive problem! Glock: Oh Shtz Drops...

[@h1n14lifegaming]

Lmao he would say something o along those line. And the irony is he made a series with just all zombies are cop.

[@ColinTimmins]

@@h1n14lifegamingI’m stoked for Glock9 new series, it’s going to be fun. =]

[@sophiamarchildon3998]

That's why I love both.

[@syphon583]

Tem, it is said often, but it needs to be said again. Your editing choices are just top notch. That horde showing up just after you left that first mine and timing that moment with the change in key of the music was subtle, but just... *chefs kiss*.

[@DarkSunGameplay]

21:15 Perhaps what the zombies are trying to accomplish is carving a staircase up to the ceiling so they can dig down right on top of you?

[@ColinTimmins]

I’ve seen a few creators having this issue now. They changed the zombie brains to carve stairs now. Master engineers they are! lol

[@Mark-jc5wt]

Really went down the rabbit hole today.

[@assko11]

Spikes do a great job of convincing zombies to take different path. Maybe lining the walls with spikes will solve the problem of carving them walls every night.

[@Vex-Milk]

Great idea, people have commented this every episode. I guess Tem doesn't bother to read comments very often.

[@Triad_Orion]

Yeah, it feels like the Auto Repair block pretty much excels at fixing up minor damage you might overlook on incidental blocks. It seems like for critical bits you'll need to repair things yourself to get it done reliably. I dunno if *more* repair blocks will actually do anything here, but yeah.

[@ColinTimmins]

23:21 Aww, he’s waving “bye bye”… 🤣

[@blaythenplaisance6338]

your editing is so good i just wanna firmly shake your hand

[@lokideus5094]

"Oh there's a rabbit down here, I'll show mercy by letting it slowly starve to death in an unending agony, unable to find its way out while at the same time having the sun shine in, and the path to freedom, just out of its reach." Legit.

[@robertnesbitt4556]

The repair block is great once it is up and running, and takes a few days to repair everything. Works best on the normal horde every 7 days.

[@mrexz7107]

Hello!!! Greetings from Poland!

[@OuabiGaming]

Actually shutters are pretty good. Hatches are cop's puke magnets, you sould remove them. Even if cops don't see you, they will spit if there's a hatch between you and them. Pseudo Posse has made great videos with tons of testing with different blocks to avoid cop spit. And he found out some blocks that helps, some blocks to avoid. Hatches, plates or semi-blocks are cop spits magnets. While shutters aren't. Very nice episode.

[@DanKoenigJr]

I have a recommendation to fix the wall digging issue. Move your doors in one space that will solve two issues. 1the zombies can’t pathfind over it like they are right now. 2. Since it’s difficult to navigate over it they wanna dig out one wall over and climb but they the system shows it as a non passable block their only option is to continue digging to get to that molding you can see at 28:18

[@janneaalto3956]

When I started making more electrified bases, I kept losing lines and relays left and right. I soon began to put every piece of infrastructure behind walls or hatches and made maintenance spaces so I could go and fix any piece, with a battery of turrets I'd activate to thin down the horde while I was being mr. handyman.

[@markgrygielewicz8047]

Used the Auto repair, it seems to take 7 days to fully repair a base (within your claim block), thought it was too slow and it was quicker just doing it myself.

[@shadowproductions969]

it didn't used to call for a solar cell, making it less viable now, but you CAN craft multiple repair blocks and it'll speed up the process a lot.. I did it with 4 or 5 last time I used it.. makes it much more viable

[@markgrygielewicz8047]

@@shadowproductions969 Cheers, might have to go down that route, I just had one, what's the maximum you can use?

[@shadowproductions969]

@markgrygielewicz8047 sorry, didn't get notified of your reply... I don't think there is a limit.. you can add them until your game starts to lag... there is a new improved mod that is better though called "efficient base repair" that uses a different technique and works a lot better and less laggy

[@markgrygielewicz8047]

@@shadowproductions969 I'll have to try that.

[@ampeg187]

15:27 - i think auto repair block has the same range as land claim block so it is basically reparing everything in that range also your roof so its gonna take quite some time for it to catch up. I still think you should do manual repairs here and there at least critical areas and hidden spots left for auto repair block.

[@GamingAfter50]

22:09 did that cop spit through your glass? Great fight, you're right, they do lots of damage. I'm surprised also that they didn't try to undermine your base from the pit, fortunate turn. I also agree that horde loot isn't particularly stellar.

[@richardsnyder5901]

Shotgun Turrets have a VERY short range. For a roof that size, you would need a few, strategically placed.

[@pepijneefsting1229]

The mining timelapse are really satisfying

[@joooodah]

Hi Guns, I am enjoying this series very much. Super fun man, looking forward to the next one : ) : )

[@runninK]

Don't forget to close the door when you go back and forth. Maybe setup a plate system so it closes automatically?

[@dustinsmith608]

I actually only use the lanterns now days. I either just buy them when I see them in the trader or make them when I get the ability to make them. I have seen a bug where if you use the light bulbs that even though they are on its dark and just a very dim light. not to mention they cost energy from a generator. so I only use lanterns now and keep my base lit up.

[@magnus33john]

The auto repair fixes any block including traps unless they receive damage during the repair which cancels its. Doesn't matter if zombies are near by or not and the repair well start again when it randomly gets back to that block.

[@ZedMagnet]

Great content. Yeah, one taco just won't cut it.

[@rayquinn1974]

You handled the adversity well, Tem, undoubtedly better than I would have. I noticed some stanky police cheesery going on @ 22:05 - 10. Made me wonder if the game only checks up until a vomit line to be good once (through vanity counter block) before hocking a loogey on a moving target that then clips through otherwise impassable blocks (glass pane & scaffold ladder blocks). I hope not, but perhaps it's classic FP simplification at work.

[@sabriinnnaaaa]

i think the zoms are dropping off and falling onto the belt of plates, maybe add a wedge ontop so they slid off of it.

[@d3wdrop-o9q]

might be a good idea to add ramp blocks to your inner truss to prevent zombies from treating those plates as a platform and "encourage" them to slide all the way into the pit instead of getting caught on the side! it's looking like rage mode is doing the most damage to the base of the walls and it's hard to address that without being able to hit the zombies while they're in the pit

[@NuadaSilverlance1]

Love your Vid's as always

[@MildFracas]

Maybe they’re trying to climb into the attic to get to you?? Reinforce the ceiling with concrete and they might stop digging the walls. Just a thought.

[@BATBALLZISALLZ]

Tem. Leave that break in the wall that the z's made. Surround the opening blocks with steel so that they have a clear pathway. The path you are currently relying on is too long and complicated for the directional a.i sequencing. This will give them an easier and more of a flow mechanic.

[@donlomo]

Hi Tem , could it be that they might want to reach you over the roof? Else you might also think about a gap in the wall.

[@crone2219]

It really gets hairy sometimes. Kuddos to you

[@Steelwolf579]

Big news with 7DTD dropped yesterday! You got a video idea planned about your thoughts Tem? I mean 1.0 release is great but you can't help but wonder how much TFP left on the chopping block for 1.0

[@ThePlainswalker13]

From the sounds of it. It is just a name change from alpha to full release. It looks like they intend on releasing iterative updates like they have for the last decade. It will now just be 1.01, 1.02, etc. instead of A21 and so on.

[@Wanderinpaladin]

You just took out the pole. Unfortunately with A21 cops "see" through anything less then a full block Psuedo Posse has a video on it. He found work arounds, but them spitting up is going to be a problem.

[@KassFireborn]

"[The rabbit] will probably starve to death eventually." Tem you're in his warren.

[@IaIaCthulhuFtagn]

[@Marc_von_Hoffrichter]

Thanks Tem, cheers mate.

[@jonesy3million26]

Maybe you could put a few mixers up in the attic to help upgrade your base faster...

[@sophiamarchildon3998]

23:20 The spanking Morty hard at work.

[@richardsnyder5901]

Flip the Vault Door orientation so that your bridge is open when off. The devs nerfed the preferable orientation. Some of the other powered doors could work. My rig is down right now or I would tell you which ones.

[@juggernaut3576]

Slight buzzing with the voice recording today. Maybe something to look into? Otherwise, top video as always! :)

[@dagnard5707]

Tem, just a suggestion. add three blade traps above each zombie lane. that way they are taking damage and then she should path correctly. on outside each of each lane that is

[@DarthRektar]

Love the thumbnail

[@davidjames1993]

The problem with cop spit is that the ferals and up spit even if they can't see you and it splits hitting random spots.

[@mh6617]

You should set up some electric fences on the cat walks it could help stall the enemies at the very least

[@jesselynch317]

The hord is endless. They will never stop pushing tell you have joined them or die.

[@ernie3249]

Remember, on that night of the roof damage, it was headshots only, even on the birds. So the turret was extremely unlikely to be effective.

[@akuokami1677]

Still think if you had the door under your melee position would work better it's a built in grenade chute and when the zombies stack up and you can't do anything you can just open the door resetting them and giving time to eat drink heal

[@joeb5316]

Fish tacos during a zombie apocalypse? Sounds like Taco Hell to me.

[@jamiekrautkremer9962]

Instead of a canary in a coal mine you got a rabbit.

[@justcallmebard]

cop spit and my electrical systems are always a problem, I don't know if it's just that i tend to put the electrical bits in the wrong places or if those buggers actually target them, but they'll snipe stuff i coulda sworn they'd never be able to hit.

[@shadowproductions969]

my general rule of thumb is leave 2-3 blocks on each side and put all electrical on the sides, spit can splash damage about 2 blocks in all directions from the hit

[@notazombie...notatall8577]

Bases like this work better as a standalone structure, having walls that go all the way around results in the problem you're having, the zombies just try to carve through the walls trying to get to you

[@shadowproductions969]

he COULD simply remove the block to each side of the stairway/ catwalk. You'd only have to do to columns completely removed

[@SC6Fhqwhgads]

Would a second repair block positioned at the other end of your crafting area help? Different location so they’re not trying to target the same blocks maybe.

[@georgegaming8031]

I didnt want to comment this, but I cant wait anymore :D Why is he not upgrading the blocks they keep destroying to steel? It would deter them more from hitting and destroying them, especially on 300% block dmg. You really need to upgrade to at least concrete blocks everywhere, there are still spots with cobble blocks! I hate to see the base so destroyed every day.

[@mechanical_chaos]

Yeah usually he's atop having a well maintained base but I think the hordes every night has him in triage mode. It's been driving me crazy that everything isn't at least cement or so. 😂

If u paint can u get all the wood/cobblestone blocks to at least concrete so ur not fixing things all the time. I like fixing things but only if I need to they have way too many things to break so that is what they do. Smg turrets might be good for birds for more distance

[@wtftolate3782]

Dig a trench around your building. It will help

[@ThePurplemaneater]

Can you lay down multiple of those repair blocks and load them up with materials, or are you limited to just one? I can imagine late game having 3 or 4 of them for your base would be amazing, at least for people not doing blood moons every night lol

[@mikeriley2475]

Do those repair blocks stack? Repair 2 blocks at a time? 3 blocks? 4? You'll have to go around each morning and fix up the sidewalk so it doesn't waste time on them :P Check the health of that catwalk underneath your crafting room i saw some zombies riding piggyback last night!

[@sorrowsoul8979]

i "think" you need to put some iron in the auto repair block to repair the shuters & electric post

[@ejsvegas5724]

I'm not sure what the FunPimps can do to fix the spit and zombies going through blocks. It happens a lot getting punched and spit on through doors and blocks.

[@bannankev]

Never used the mod to repair stuff around the base. But my question is could you maybe double them up? Like make another one and it would repair twice as fast? Maybe use a better Solar cell for faster speed? I don’t know, Never used it not sure.

[@Neoreaver]

How about a hatch catwalk? You can drop out sections at will.

[@Gochen86]

I've been curious why you haven't put any points into the Penetrator perk yet. Even the spear benefits from it. With all the AP ammo you made, I would have thought you'd put points into it.

Just me or anyone else hear his mic doing some funky stuff in the background when music isn't playing or something? Not sure how to describe it. Not exactly static, but like when someone tries to plug in the cord for a speaker it makes that electrical noise. It's only when he's talking.

Why not just remove 2 width of wall next to each ramp so it's kinda open and they cant reach the side walls to whack? They would be forced to just move forward as they wont be able to reach the side wall of the building if the ramps aren't attached to the immediate wall.
