7 day horde attack electric wire relay and destroy them even they are in bunker?

[Goodbody]

i have a problem , 7 day horde all the time attack by some mechanism my electric wire relay and cut of electric power from traps.


i have all eletric wire relay in smaall bunkers , concrete+bunker hatch. Its intact but realy inside is destroyed.


How is that possible? How can i protect wire relays ? its super boring make a lot of traps and see how in literally first minute of horde attack its everything offline, because wiore relay is destroyd (by maagic, because hatch and concrete around ar intact.

Please help me understand what is happenening and how to protect relays better.

Electric wire relay take damage if it get triggered by several zombies at the same time (or in a short interval, I don't know exactly). Also (less sure about that), I think that cops zombies, when they explode, deal some damage through blocks (since they only have 250hp it can break rather quickly).

When the electric wire relay already took some damage (half hp or something like that) it starts being less efficient (i.e it will stun the first zombie but then stop working for some time, letting the next zombies go through).

AFAIK the electric wire each time it damage zombie or stun (each zombie gets immunity for like 3 seconds after being stunned by it, so it wont trigger the wire), wire will take damage (durability loss).
If it happens to damage player instead, durability will degrade steadily as long as wire keeps damaging the player (no 3 sec immunity for players).

This means wires need a maintenance every once in a while, as they get damaged each time they trigger.

Looks like the above two comments are talking about electric fences. But you're talking about relays, right petr.vjm? That's weird to me if the zombies are singling out the relays to attack, and even weirder if they're being hit while protected by a layer of concrete.

Oh right, it was relay not fences...
Then my guess is that the explosion radius of the cop zombie go though block (maybe doesn't deal full damage if there are block between the zombie and the relay).

yes its about RELAYS. what is confusing me is that i have relays in concrete+bunker hatch and they hit it in first shot )maybe secon) in 7 day horde day.


so everything is usseles and i m frustrated from making complicated eletrics traps, because they are gone at the moment when horde hit EXACTLY crucial relay which is powering everything.

i look down, nothing is working, just one hit and very well sealed electric realy and all is dosconected. They hit thru concrete, but concrete lives, relays not.

Put them underground... then u dont see the wiring either...

Try putting them on the roof, with steel bars on each side and a hatch at the top. Wont take damage then. It sounds like it's coming from either zombie explosion or puke which can aoe through blocks.
