    Day 15, normal difficulty, I had 3 screamers show up at night at my crafting base (yes, land claimed), 1 of them feral. Only the dew collector was active. Should also mention, ferals were being summoned by the screams

    I have an automated screamer defense system at my base using traps that is primarily a quality of life addition. They take care of screamers and wandering hordes easily so I can completely ignore them. But the 2 tasks I do in which I do not want to be bothered by screamers is clearing high level infested poi's and mining.
    It is quite possible to run out of ammo clearing an infested poi and then having multiple screamers show (I play at max settings-insane, nightmare). I've been cheesing most of my poi's now with the assassin set and I still occasionally get screamers. Like using the M60 and shotgun? They generate a ton of heat...welcome to screamer central... I've literally had to build mini-horde bases just outside large poi's so I can more easily manage the resulting screamer hordes without using crazy amounts of ammo. It's been working quite well. Location is very important of course...has to be outside of the poi itself so it does not disappear when the poi resets but close enough that you can use it without failing the quest...
    For mining- I don't like to be bothered while mining. I'm buffed with candy, etc. and my focus is all about gaining resources and not combat. To that end, I actually go through the trouble of setting up a perimeter around my mining area that takes out screamers automatically before they can see me and scream in a horde. Low level it's a perimeter wall with spikes and higher levels it's a wall with electric traps. It's a small pain to do but prevents just a big hassle later so I'm not fighting a screamer horde while my rock candy buff is uselessly burning away. There are ways of mining to mitigate this of course, such as incline tunnel mining... but I'm just a lover of full excavation mining...just my style, can't help it lol. :)

    "Not spawning more than you can handle" is debatable. You start getting radiated spawns around GS103. But you don't see any in POIs until GS125 and GS133 for Horde Nights.

    Really informative video. Had a mate earlier trying to generate heat to spawn some screamers, and he was at his wits end when no matter what he did nothing was happening - I suspect after watching this he kept missing on his "roll" to spawn a screamer after hitting 25%, and thus triggering the ~4 minute cooldown multiple times.

    • @Firespark81
      @Firespark81  28 дней назад +2

      yea just spam click an auger 26 times or fire a gun 26 times then if you dont get them wait 4 min try again. Do note that there may also be something in the code that prevents them from spawning back to back. I was never able to get any back to back in the same chunk after a cooldown but then again that could have just been bad RNG. Just know it's possible that is could be a thing.
      I really wish the full screamer code was available in the xml files so we could see exactly how they work.

    From what I've seen, the ones who are more freaked out about screamers spawning are old school 7 day players. Pre 1.0 Screaming could only spawn at 100% of the heat system. For them it was a 4x increase of screamers

    I love this game and I am playing it both ways with a creative save and normal one and having creative save is like being rich 😂 just survived first blood moon in creative mode but it was hard, luckily we built a steel base and surrounded it with steel spike traps all the way around and inside all the way around we put up barbed wire and more wood steel spike traps, but we read every single book and all the volume magazines in creative mode and it has made it hard because it thinks that we are a higher level and I suppose that we're by reading them all but it literally sends hordes throughout the whole day and night every day, first horde night was absolutely insane and I wish that we had live streamed it and we are going to on the next one just to show how insane it is when you level up to the max with the books and magazines in creative mode 😂 it literally is crazy and using the auger to knock anything down, it pretty much sends mini hordes and you are surrounded pretty quickly, but it is fun on creative mode, i like creative mode but playing it normally is fun too it just makes it more challenging, but i guess both ways is challenging and fun in different aspects, thanks for sharing this with us all

      In this video I'm alone and was getting two so I'm not sure. But the game does do some fun stuff with game stage when in a party so it's perfectly safe to say it could also look at party when it decides to spawn them.
      So much of that stuff is hidden in the actual code though so most we can ever do is test and make educated guesses.

    I'm not worried about screamers i'm ready for. As long as they don't do the silent thing. I want to say it was alpha 16 or 17 maybe, that they could wander RIGHT up behind me while I'm building or chopping trees and wait to be right behind me before they scream and give me a freaking heart attack. Thats what's always in the back of my mind whenever i'm out doing missions etc. I get a thrill out of SOME jump scares but that scream right in my ear left an impression years later.

  • @fletchslade5718
    @fletchslade5718 16 дней назад +1

    Small clarification - The number of screamers that can spawn from the generation is actually 1 or 2, not just 1. The chances are at 25%, 50%, 75% and if you got that far without spawning - at 100%, a spawn is guaranteed.
    Each screamer can spawn additional screamers in their horde spawns even though it does not appear that way in the code. Have seen it happen many times.
    What I am unsure about is how many times the added screamers can call hordes of their own. If each screamer summoned can spawn, it could get way out of control and now that entities do not despawn, but tend to stay until a player comes back to a chunk - this is very exciting in unhappy ways on MP servers.
    Melee and tactical spike deployment to clean up the mess as quietly as possible is advised.

  • @kraevgames
    @kraevgames 27 дней назад +3

    So, first off, by "they will never give you more than you can handle", I assume you mean specifically on default settings, considering 20 irradiated zombies on day 15, while you're still using pipe weapons and playing on warrior difficulty, is definitely more than one can handle.
    After discussing this with an admin on the server I use, and watching a few of these types of videos, and doing some minor testing myself, it seems like being on a server with other players changes how some of this works. There doesn't seem to be any indication of this theory in the xml files, but as most of us know by now, the xml files aren't always 100% accurate. The admin's hypothesis is that, like airdrops, players being far apart might cause screamers to spawn near someone else, rather than near the chunk that's actually generating heat. As I said before, I have had 4 irradiated screamers show up at the exact same time, while the only things generating heat anywhere near me were just 2 dew collectors. You theorized that could have been from my base generating heat in multiple chunks, but that simply isn't possible with only 2 dew collectors.
    Screamers used to only spawn in when heat reached 100%, and even then, it was only a chance, not a guarantee. As you, and others, have pointed out, that isn't the case any longer, which explains why many people are confused about how often they spawn.
    My experience, plus your research, leads me to believe that scouts have, in fact, been re-added to the game. Based on your conclusion, there is no other explanation as to why I've gotten so many screamers in such short amounts of time. I understand that time sometimes feels as though it goes by at different paces when gaming, but there have been times that I only played for an hour and had screamers show up 5 times. (Yes, I do count, and watch the clock.)
    The funny thing is that when I only had dew collectors and campfires at my base, I was getting screamers constantly. After a couple weeks, once I got everything set up, (4 dew collectors, 3 campfires, 3 forges, 2 chem stations, a generator, a battery bank, a dozen lights, and 4 turrets) I only get screamers once or twice a day. It's important to remember that every time TFP change the code, they create tiny glitches throughout, which often leads to things not working the way people expect them to. I've spent a large portion of my experience in this game doing things over and over, because people like to say things like "That can't happen, it's in the code" after I've seen it happen. No amount of "Trust me, I know the code" will ever undo thousands of hours of seeing it first hand.
    All in all, I appreciate you taking the time to do more research on this matter, regardless of how accurate your findings are. You, and anyone else interested, should check out the video "Pseudo Posse" just put out on this subject as well. They go a little more in depth than you did here, but you both made some very valid points and observations.

I don't want my game stage to get higher than what I'm ready to handle and I want to extend my play -- the game is basically over for you when you have everything maxed out - there's nothing to play for. My record was 1200 in one horde night - but since I did that many they reduced the spawn rate and how close they can spawn to you. Like it used to be if you were killing them really fast you'd see them spawn in right up close to you - they don't do that anymore.
    I just surround my base with electrical fence and stay inside so the screamers don't see me. They'll walk right into your traps and die.
    You only generate heat mining metal ores - iron and lead. You don't generate as much heat if you mash down the button until you run out of gas -- it only increases turning power equipment off and on. I just stick with steel picks and shovel. Never get a screamer while mining.

      Don't use torches or candles for lighting. Only use one of each work station at a time that require fire to operate. Keep your dew collector away from your base for two reasons -- the zombies will attack them if they can and you keep the heat away from you. Stay crouched down at night inside your base and you won't hardly even see any zombies and after a while your whole area will be devoid of them. That's if you don't want to be bothered with them.

      Anything thats metal does not gen heat. You can open metal chests with no problem. Also you game stage is going to go up not matter what you do cause you gain exp doing most things. Its based on level and days alive. If you dont want it to go up or be high all you gotta do is let them zombies eat you a few times then work off the debt.

But I will give some people the benefit of the doubt as I have learned that sometimes the game does not do what the xml files say. So now I verify the info I read in them just to be sure.
      A really good example is healing factor. It should not chew through your food. Should only eat up water according to the XML files. But it does indeed cause you to consume food faster and not water on pc.

      Too negate cop spit you can setup a wall using “4 way pole center” blocks as kill holes and then put “5cm cylinder” blocks on the outer side of the wall.
      The cylinders need to be spaced a block apart, they block the cop spit and you can still shoot and hit through no problem.

    • @keenkrozzy949
      @keenkrozzy949 18 дней назад

      I think he might still correct, and this might be why: When the heat triggers a screamer spawn, it can spawn 1-3 screamers. It doesn't spawn them right next to each other, they are spaced apart pretty far sometimes and start walking towards the chunk that triggered them. So they might be spaced out a little bit and appear to have been more than one screamer triggered within 21 minutes, but it in fact was just one trigger.

    I play mostly overhaul mods for this game, but the best policy is to have two bases: horde and crafting, near by, and build the crafting on columns (column = 4xcorner pole) at least 15 block up - no "destroy the area" rage in zeds. Plus it gives a nice LOS to what is below.
    Off course you can have more horde based in different biomes (loot stage thing).

      The water change is hated mainly cause it doesn't add a challenge to the game. It just makes it more tedious. That's the problem.
      Rather than expanding on the system to make it harder to get water, they just made it more tedious. For example, making it so boiled water still has a chance to get you sick(or adding infection risk to unpurify water would be good) and you needing a filter would have been a nice change. Maybe the dew can give you straight up pure water that you can collect in your jars.
      The current system is just tedious and just add in "artificial" difficulty. Water is everywhere and it's easy to get yes. But the overall change is still bad.

Once I filled the interior, I then placed plates on the ground in a 25? square circumference, except leaving a 10x10 bare ground space at the 'front' of my structure for the zombies to spawn; it worked like a charm.
