14 Days To Die Is Live With 1.0 Stable!


 

That's right, my most popular server mode is live now. The Blood Moon only comes every 14 days so you have a lot of time to prepare and enhance your bases! This is a build focused server with mods that don't ruin the game balance, but definitely help you make the best base possible. Oh, and they're all server side, so you just have to log on, you won't have to download or install any mods yourself.

This map also has larger cities than normal, including in the forest and desert biomes.

To find this server, use the in-game Join Menu to search for; "14 Days To Die" 

The testing phase for this server went is over after over a month, and I'm pleased with the results.

Server Rules

- Use your claim blocks. It's the only way to prevent griefing along with a locked door. Blocks are 100 times tougher with a claim block.

- World Regenerations are performed periodically. During this time, all blocks that have not been visited within 3 in-game days will be restored to their original version. These days will be scheduled here, so you'll see an announcement on this blog before it happens. This is to give you a chance to visit all your claims and the area around them to make sure they're not overwritten.

- Do not claim points of interest. Claim blocks found in cities, towns, or reserving structures in the wild will be deleted. This has to happen so the quest system can run unimpeded.

- Be kind. This English server is the foundation for a creative community dedicated to having fun, whether alone or in a group. Feel free to ask questions.

- This server is free. I don't accept donations at this point in time for expenses. If that changes, you'll see it in the logon message or here, no where else. Even when donations are open, they won't be required.

MODS

After extensive testing over several weeks, Chill and Build very few mods were kept so high performance could be maintained while improving the game. Here are the mods that made the cut:

GNS Weather Mod:

1. Lowers the frequency of rain, storms, and fog in all biomes.
2. Removes the smog from the burnt biome, now it looks dry and dusty.
3. Decreases the fog slightly on horde night.
4. No changes to the Wasteland (currently)

GNS Beautiful Bases Mod:

My favourite mod on the list. Very light weight, and balanced to increase the fun but not give anyone a new advantage in the game.

1. Pick up various pictures, posters, signs, and décor items out in the world
2. Craft military barriers (from the cement mixer with two recipes) and barbed wire (available as a variable helper)
3. Craft hoist gear (available as a variable helper)
4. Pick up all flags in the world and craft your own variable helper flag which includes all flag variations
5. Craft the GNS Logo lamp (created by Mumpfy)
6. Craft jail doors and walls. This is highly exploitable, so use at your own discretion.
7. Harvest neon "open" and "cold beer" signs with your wrench and hook them up to power

GNS 2x2 Dew Collector

Makes the dew collector 2x2 instead of 3x3. One block space needs to be open above the dew collector for it to function (it's the block above the "P" in the Pass-n-Gas sticker.

(V1.0) Self Seed Farming (Still in early testing)

Allows plants to return directly to planted seedlings when harvested at the end of their growth cycle. The trade off is not being able to receive any seed drop. Living off the Land and wearing a Farmer's Outfit continue to increase plant yield. This is a server side only mod.

More Biome Cities

This was used during world generation to make sure that there were plenty of cities on the map and that they'd be large enough for a significant server population. As an added bonus, we get a bigger variety of Points of Interest as well.

Solar Plus (Server Side Only)

 Solar cells and solar bank can be crafted via the electrician skill in a workbench.

Epicspire's 66 Slot Backpack

The name says it all! I normally wouldn't include this, but since it's a Building Focused server, it seems like a requirement.

More Info

This world is backed up regularly. If it lasts more than a few weeks, and a reset is required that'll wipe the world, I'll make the files available here so you can visit your builds on your own.

Thank you for checking out the Chill and Build PVE server, I hope you enjoy your stay!

14 Days to Die - The Builder's Server for 7 Days to Die

Image
To find this server, simply search for "14 Days To Die" and look at the description for "The original 14 Days to Die Server," using the normal in-game server browser, you don't need the IP or Port to join.    There's a lot in that title, I know. What it really means is that this blog is meant to support a dedicated server for the game 7 Days To Die for the Fun Pimps. The main server is slightly modified but still ruled by Anti-Cheat. Blood Moons come along every 14 days. Zombies usually walk instead of sprinting or running. Users have multiple large claims so you can build to your heart's content. The map is a minimum of 10k with unclaimed blocks resetting every 14 days. Wipes will occur with major patches to maintain compatibility. There are other details I'm forgetting, I'm sure, but I'll add them as they come to mind. This server features the lightweight and delightful GNS Beautiful Bases Mod, which allows everyone to steal posters from po

The World May Be Ending On August 19, 2023. Only you can stop it!

  One of the stickiest questions that can plague a dedicated server in 7 Days To Die is when it's time to reset the world, forcing everyone to restart. The most obvious time is when a new major patch hits, like the advancement from Alpha 20 to Alpha 21. The map isn't compatible from one to the other, so it's a no-briainer. What about between major patches? After a while the world will accumulate abandoned player camps, new POI's may drop, and some players may start yearning to start over so they can use what they've learned during their last play though. This gives everyone who has met on the server the opportunity to start over at the same time, for the map to change, and for a few new rules to be made that reflect the desires of the community. It has been a pleasure meeting and playing with you on this new version of the server. Alpha 21 brought some new features in that I was eager to try, such as the chunk reloading system. It turns out that the system isn't
