A16 Claim Block Singel Player

[Helios]

Keep it you need it to pickup certain blocks at your base like the ones for electricity also work bench ect. from patch notes : You start with a claim stone in single player because it now enables the pick-up ability for certain blocks. Was watching games4Kickz who was irritad by the claim block :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2EtHGhJayNI&feature=youtu.be&t=15

You cant pick up electrical blocks unless you own the claim that they are on? What does this mean for MP?

It means you can't pick up electrical blocks unless you own the claim that they are on. I think friends claims you might also be able to pick up.

should have been keeping them anyway, they prevented random zombie spawns in a radius around them

Wasn't that only the bedrolls that do that?

Only an active bedroll has a do not spawn radius. If claim blocks stopped z's from spawning people would spam them and we would never see complaints of zombies spawning inside bases.

Not only can you test this yourself if you don't believe me, but it's documented in the games files and I quote:

<property name="CanMobsSpawnOn" value="true" />

The default value for a block is now FALSE.

Static spawners in prefabs / POI completely ignore this flag.


A placed bedroll ("your" bedroll, not any that exists) works like a claim stone.
It blocks zombie spawns in a rectangular area of 31x31 meters from bedrock to sky.
(that's 15 + 1 + 15m)

It's bedrolls that function like a claimblock in relation to spawn blocking

You can find this note in the xml.txt file located
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\7 Days To Die\Data\Config

Neither claim blocks nor bedrolls stop POI placed zombies, they were never supposed to respawn anyway, but sometimes they do. And if they do, they ignore both the bedrolls and the claimblocks

But actual random spawned zombies: are blocked

I have no idea what changes will happen with sleepers coming in a16 or if the POI placement bug will be fixed

any natural ground or floor will spawn, replace with manmade of some sort

player made blocks stop random spawns ON THE BLOCK

claim blocks and bedrolls stop random spawns IN A RADIUS

Which means no matter how big you make your block area, you should still put some land claims around the edge to keep the randoms from spawning right next to it
