This is game changing as it will make Trebuchet, Ballista and Flamethrower Ammos sustainable with a proper ratio on the required buildings.

If you have 1 Oil Pump and on the unlucky side you only get 1 Oil every 3 hours.
That's 10 Gas. You need 2 Gas per 10 Treb Bombs.

You can get about 5 Iron Ores(max) on the Mining and need 2 gas to Reload it.

So in 3 hours.. you get 8 Gas to use and about 4~ Iron Ores. so you can make 40 Treb Bombs every 3 hours while also maintaining the Mining Machine...

Similarly, Ballistas can also be used sparingly now.

Tree Plantation gives Tree Branches and Logs
So not only a grind but now micromanaging... cant wait!!!!

It's a very welcome change. This will allow a better usage of the Range Traps.
Thanks for the test!

1. It takes about 3hours for the Quarrying, Mining and Oil Machine to produce something.

2. All of which needs MAINTENANCE KIT to reload and some more. Maintenance Kit needs 10 Research Material, 5 Cloth, 1 Rubber Ring, 4 Piece of Iron to make 1. All of which can easily be obtained from the Horde Wave

3. Oil Machine yielded 2 Oil(20 Gas) on first try, needs 4 Maintenance Kit and 3 Log and to reload

4. Quarrying yielded 2 Limestone, 2 Small stones, 5 Boulder, 6 Stone on first try. Need 1 MK and 1 Gas to reload

5. Mining Machine yielded 1 Copper Ore, 5 pieces of Iron and 4 Iron ore on first try. Need 2 Maintenance Kit and 2 Fuel to reload.

6. All the above machines will stop their animation when they are done producing their outputs.

7. Bush and Tree Plantation takes about 7hours to finish producing their products.

8. Tree Plantation's first yield was 5 Logs, 17 Leaves, 1 Apple, 10 Tree Branch. and needs 1 Seed and 1 Manure to reload.

9. Bush Plantation's first yield was 4 Vines, 1 Herb, 4 Tree Branch and 14 Leaves. and needs 1 Seed and 1 Manure to reload.

10. Both Tree and Bush plantation will show "growing" animation and stops when its harvestable.

11. IMPORTANT: All machines/plantation has random yield. Got 1 Gas / 2 Limestone, 3 Stone, 3 Small stones, 8 Boulder/ 5 Piece of Iron, 2 Iron Ore ON second yield of the respective machines.

Overall, this is GAME CHANGING in terms of resources.


Great info. Thank you! By the way, it is possible to make more of each machines/plantations right?
Bug Report: In a prison southeast of the map, zombies are buried under the floor and attack from under the floor.

You can go to the Discord and report that, but it's already a known issue but hasn't been fixed yet.

@FartVader, yes you can make more than one.
the machine has one use, its pretty much just exchanging resource for ores.

happens in almost every other building, including hospital, they are pretty loud and annoying.
Bush/tree plantation needs seeds but doesn't yield any seeds? Doesn't that make them useless in the long run, as you will still have to harvest wild bushes to get seeds? Plus you also need seeds to reload traps to get meat to make manure...
Nice that tree plantation produces 10 branches!
Still, the best value to me is that you can use trees to make your base look nicer :D
They don't. The current addition of structures don't make the game infinitely sustainable with how much they output. But it does prolong it somehow.

Seeds are easy to get, you'd still have to whack on those bushes and chop down trees. But passive resource gains would always be welcome.

With the current system, it would be best to use:
2 Tree Plantation
1 Oil Pump
5 Mining Machine.

That could allow you to refill.
Tree Plantation supplies the LOG for the Oil Pump and the Oil Pump supplies Gas for the Mining Machine.

That's just to get some passive Iron Ore and a chance on Copper Ore.

After you're satisfied with the number of traps you have, can probably change to Quarrying Machines instead of Mining Machine.

2 Tree Plantation
1 Oil Pump
5 Quarrying Machine

Tree > Oil Pump > Quarrying to Trebuchet Bombs.
ok so just the bush plantation is pointless right now => invest 2 seeds to get 4 branches (6 branches if you convert the vines)

Copper isn't very frequent, one round I got 2 of 4 machines giving 1 copper, and next round just 1 of 4... needs lots of machines if you want to build up copper, good that maintenance kits are cheap and you can collect it several times a day :D

Yeah, that's why I said it's random. I also don't always get much Copper. If you want, you can Save > Reload the Machines > pass 10-15mins of real time or 2-3hours in game time > Check machines if yields are desirable > Save if yes LOAD if not.
The game needs horde night options. I find the game to rushed and would like a bit more time to enjoy exploring the city. I don't want to feel rushed to gather, gather, gather, build traps, gather, gather, wash and repeat.
