7 days to die Progression XML (How to make me level up by crafting)

[Go Deep Sheep]

Hi the new patch made it impossible to level up by crafting, how do i change it? And how do I basically fix it so its back to normal more or less. So I get level from: Crafting, mining, killing, working with tools, and so on. I fixed a lot of things in Items.xml and block and so on. Since the new patch destroyed my old mods and setting.

Plz help, it would really mean a lot to me ^^

You do get exp from " mining killing and working with tools " you dont get exp from spam crafting anymore.

Theres nothing to fix as nothing is broken.

You do still level by doing things, like contruction skill for for reparining and upgrading, or mining skill for well mining. They just eliminated the exploit that was spam crafting with some perks. Also xp gained and cost of skills/perks was changed to reflect this too. Welcome to the new normal. You have to roll back to A15 for the old broken way.

I personally love the new progression system.

If you want to be level 40 by day 7, use console commands.

Ill figure it out myself. If you dont know how to, there is not need to be a ♥♥♥♥ about it and telling me to use cheats you know... I liked how the game was before, and i put a lot of effort into it. Not only do I have to start over now because my old saves dont work, but the mods are resat as well. So do spare me the details of the new ''fantastic'' patch that destroyed all the time my friends and I put into the server.

Well, if you like the game, you might want to get used to that factor. When A17 comes out, we will most likely have to wipe and start all over again. Although, most of us find it tends to get a little boring in late game anyway and starting over is kind of fun. I can still see the reason for grunting about starting over though. It's a fact we will have to evenetually. Which is why the Dev team is doing the updates the way they do... farther apart with more content built into them as opposed to frequent smaller ones. This way we get more playtime in current build before a wipe is necessary.

As to the current system, if you build the appropriate tool skills, your avatar gets better at it and in the long run, you can harvest MORE than in A15 and craft just as well as before. The difference is you are more limited in early game unless you use "cheats" as was mentioned.

I wouldn't bash anyone who wants to change things up to suit their own playstyle and tastes. More power to you, and I hope you get it sorted. :)

I would like to mention that this new system is how the devs are planning to go forward. There will be tweaks and such, but I don't think it will revert back to the previous way of things especially on the crafting side of things. You'll had to make your changes 'every time' the devs make even the slightest tweak to those files. Not to mention, it might isolate you and your friends from being able to play with others outside your group.

You can also expect more major changes in which will require complete restarts. It is inevitable. It might be awhile, but it will come again.

Anyways... Good luck!

So basically you spent time and effort to build an elaborate sandcastle on the beach and are getting upset cuz the tide will come in and wipe it out ?

Did you nor your freinds realize this was a WIP/EA/always changing ?

And were being ♥♥♥♥♥ ...............

Copy paste the progression xml from 15 to the current config folder, click accept on the override prompts. Cross your fingers, and cry elsewhere

Your advice on ''rerolling the game'' isnt a solution u know. Its called being retarded. It seems to me you like the world to be revolving around you, your opinion and how you are the only person that is right.

I havent commented on the way you play being wrong, nor have i said how you should play the game. Yet you seemto think its perfectly normal to do that towards me. Honestly its just shoving your opinion down my throat at this point.

Personally think it should be a combo of old and new.
Start crafting a level 10 axe. Spam craft can take it to lvl 25. To unlock 25-50 buy a perk, craft 25-50, unlock 50-100 buy a perk, craft from 50 till you can craft at 100, then you need to buy another perk.

It would give the more natural feel as well as being gated by the idea you have to concentrate Skill Points to the task to be able to achieve the next level of mastery.

I just haven't had the time to do such for my own games yet.
Note: I never spam crafted in 15. I simply craft what I needed when I needed (usually instead of repairing). I just like the feel and idea of skill getting better the magic bumps for spending skill points is a bit too artificial for me. I'd rather it level, then be locked at the peak until I buy the next perk. It would still gate spam crafting like the current system but give the natural progression feel of the old system.

Note: I removed a lot of unnecessary from this thread (playstyle attacking, attacking people for asking how to do something, said person getting upset due to said attacks, etc).
