Then when this thread popped up it just made me think is all. I just usually like making large farms and felt the impact of the time sink more than a resource drain or anything else.
I feel kinda bad saying anything at all really.
An adjustment like the ability to press "e" to pick crops then automatically deducting a seed from player inventory to replant, if you have one of the same type, would be a nice little QoL change maybe. I don't think crops are broken or anything like that either, Its just a pretty questionable decision with equally questionable effectiveness to me. I'm not saying the mechanic breaks the game or anything like that, there's still fun to be had all over the place. At the end of the day you just need to find some more seeds than you would in a19 until you get that first LoL perk then you're right back at infinite food and farm expansion like a19 again. It doesn't mitigate the unlimited resource situation and it doesn't make anything more challenging, just takes more time. Placing one single point in LoL essentially allows you to attain unlimited food as it is now. I'm no game design expert but maybe make farming require slightly more complex infrastructure, anything other than waste player time. Adding mechanics like zombie's trampling crops or animals like pigs being drawn to crops and damaging them as well might be preferable. I like the scarcity of food in loot compared to a19 and I agree with you about the balance and resource sinks completely, but a player's time is a valuable commodity and wasting it is like the worst way to go about things. It is a basic rule of any game economy that anything that has an endless source needs a drain as well.Įdited Decemby meganoth (see edit history) But the functional change that you need to replenish seeds is a much needed drain on an otherwise endless resource. I don't like the added grind as well (which could easily be halved by having seeds you get from harvest stay in the ground). It would mean you had wasted 200 hours without learning the game. How many hours have you in the game? If it is more than 200 then I would say shame on you if you ever starve to death now. That may be in your case, but a lot of new players have been complaining about food even in A19 or A18, and A20 will be no difference. Just watch how most streamers or youtubers like Kage848 live off of them. As for easy money, as long as traders exist I don't think they can avoid that issue. I only started playing in a19 so I can't say how things hold up to prior to that but this iteration of farming is tedious and in A19 its mostly pointless so. I haven't come close to running out of food or starving yet.
I'm all for balancing survival more but I don't think this really did it. which we may re-release with the original authors consent.Yeah, I don't feel it effected my sense of survival in any meaningful way.
Our greatest undergound garden was truly a sweet looking project, unfortunately didnt get screenshots before last server wipe, however it was saved to a highly edited / customized prefab someone else created. If you look toward the top of the screenshot you can see the windowed skylights spaced to give us a longer garden "strip" Here are some screenshots of the latest garden (though not underground) it is covered by a roof and protected.
#7 days to die farming light windows
You can literally line a 50 cube deep shaft with 50 upgraded windows and sunlight will still pass thought them all, but good luck to raiders trying t break them all. (which of course are very hard to break when keystone protected. Light will shine thorugh windows, even those upgraded the max level. IF you stratigically place multiple skylights you can effectively make a nice subterranian garden protected from raids, zombies and animals. So your garden plot would more accurately be a 9x9 Octagon (dont place dirt on the corners) So a top Down diagram will look like this: (O= skylight and X's are your crops) its a little tricky.but for every "skylight" you make, you can place dirt outward in all directions 4 cubes, this doesnt exactly make it a 9x9 garden as the 4 corners are technically 5 blocks from the sunlight so anything planted on your corners WONT GROW. (water isnt needed nearby to grow crops anymore) If you build a room or greenhouese type structure, you will need some access to sunlight (as mentioned, an open wall can suffice.) but as soon as you close up all sunlight sources, your plants will "explode" and pop out of the soil. All you need is one open block / window / shaft to daylight above.Plants will only grow withim 4 cubes sunlight., and before the latest patch, 8 cubes of water. I have had excellent results farming underground (if thats what youre going for).
