Temperature

[harley9699]

Read the A14 notes and didn't see anything about the temperature system being adjusted. Either we missed that they're fixing it or the devs are happy with it. Main reason our group quit playing, it's just too finicky. So, are they still looking at it or is it set or is it to be addressed somewhere down the line?

(I would have asked on the official forums, but I guess I'm banned over there or something, since I can't post anything)

What is wrong with the temperature?

[hyperion]

The termperature thing can be sort of wacky. I've had a base in maple forest for 63 days and until a few days ago, I was never cold there. Nightfall came around day 58 or so and I'm suddenly cold, so put on puffer coat. Looking at external temperature and is 26 farenheit. So I'm thinking wtf just happened? Is it winter? The leaves are all still green, doesn't look like winter, but suddenly I'm cold. Oh well, early access.

There are no A 14 notes out yet. You have a link for theese phantom A 14 notes?

i dont blame you the temperature in the game should not be a finished part fo the game since its pretty awful in its current state jumping around too much

Those aren't notes, those are an old list of what was being worked on in A14 and includes vague stuff like hundreds of xml fixes which can include temperature settings.

That being said it sounds like the people you play with suck, the temperature system is super easy and is not hard to survive with.

Spawning first into miles of snow biome can be a bit annoying at times, but generally ... the temp. system isn't nearly as bad as some make it out to be. It does tend to restrict what clothing/armor you can wear (per biome), however, which I find kind of irritating. That is, it's too much of a predictability thing. You end up wearing essentially the same combo of things, I mean...at least if you want all slots filled vs. skipping some.

But anyway ... I haven't heard/seen anything about such via Madmole's posts. They're happy with the GUI and the RWG size limit...but no word on the temp system.

You and your friends could just disable the weather system while playing, btw.

Really? How do you do that? Turn it off, that is.
We played 30-40 hours (of A13 alone) and it was put on some clothes, take them off, put them on again, take....
A toggle we didn't see or an xml adjustment?

I don't feel the game is as you say, maybe if you switch to differents extreme biome in the same run, but usually if your not in the Desert, burned forest or snow, you can wander around most other biome without having to dress/undress like you say...

Actually i rarelly change cloths, most of the time i'll just remove my shades at night and it's all fixed...

Anyway who would keep their shades at night walking in a forest?

You have to link your steam account to the 7 days to die website before you can post on their website. I had the same issue, created an account on their website couldn' t post in the forums until I linked my steam account to the 7 days to die website.

It's a console command, so one has to be the Admin or in SP, I think.

Open console (usually the ~ key) and type

weathersurvival off.

Hit enter. Close console. You'd have to repeat it every time you restart/load a savegame (unless Admin can set it to always be like that, no clue)

Alternatively, the weathersurvival.xml parameters can be altered to reduce certain weather effect, elevation height and activity temp changes to a pretty minimal thing.

If the temperature identifier was simply changed from degrees to % then it would make more sense. Over 100% you are starting to get overheated and need to adjust. Under 30% and you need to warm up.


It really is not that hard to maintain a fairly even temperature as long as you pay attention to the stats on your clothing. If you are going to be in the snow then wear a cloth cap not a football helmet. Also iron armor will chill you out in the cold whereas scrap armor will warm you slightly. Goggles also warm you up.

Of course puffer coat on or off can make a huge difference.

For the heat a cowboy hat and iron armor works wonders.

You can also play around with the various drinks with coffee warming you and chrysanthemum tea coolling you and golden rod tea being neutral.

It is actually a fairly decent working system if you think % instead of degrees.

Sometimes if you try to get to fancy with everything it can take away from the experience, I mean its not finished yet but more complexity doesn't always equate to a fun experience. I'm suprise the guys don't get to pick a bigger package if they want on there guy, I think women can pick a bigger bust if they want. Maybe they should consider acne breakouts and milaria from mosquitos, lime disease, rabies, and who knows what else, maybe a tetnous infiection from stepping on a rusty nail, poison ivy, rashes, or die from allergies to bee stings. The game is going somewhere but i'm not certain totally where that is.
