      How come a switch sometimes will not work when wiring it to electric relay then to a generator bank.
      I was trying to use a switch then wire 2 shotgun turrets to the switch allowing me to have some better control of the turret for my horde defense.

      @@michaelzephyros7725 Only things I can think is make sure you're not using timer relays (make sure they're just normal wire relays) & make sure you have enough power. Otherwise try just going straight from the generator to the switch to the turret, that should work fine.

    Wow... I have been playing 7 days to die for about 2 weeks. I learned about the game from Neebs gaming and decided to try an Int build just to get the sledge turret ( Dick puncher ).... I got a trap bundle that came with some blade traps and got a few fence posts from the trader but really had no idea how to use them.
    I currently have a double iron door place horizontally right in front of my fighting window and can drop the doors and all the zombies if they get too thick. My best friend has a spot to toss flaming cocktails when they land... the pit is concreted in and has a lip they have to climb over to get out. Otherwise I have only used a set of sledge turrets.... day 28 was actually quite boring.

    Super how to video on wiring and traps. Your explanations are fantastic. Do you get XP from all traps if you max out the perk in A21 or do you also need books/magazines? I love how well your bases work and how inexpensive they tend to be early game yet upgradable for later with traps. I hate to build temporary even if I intend to move later. Your bases are easily upgradable as time moves on. Great video, thank you.

    • @NotOnly25
      @NotOnly25  Рік тому

      Thanks for the kind words! Advanced Engineering gives more XP from traps the higher you level it, it doesn't ever hit 100% but it gets pretty close from what I remember.

    Just a quick question: Do you need your own land claim block placed down in order to actually make the blade traps work?
    A group of friends play and we've had one of the players place a land block. However, if I place down an electric trap and wire it up as in this video, it won't work at all. Does the player who places the land claim block need to place the trap for it to work?
    Awesome video! Makes it loads easier to understand.
    My apologies if I missed any mention of land block claims in the video.

    i forget if its 27 or 32 off the top of my head, but since darts stop after a set distance, you can also point them towards you from out in the distance and shoot the zombies in the backs, but you'll stay safe and out of reach cus they just poof away, and you can also use a step trap sensor on a wall or floor and just press it and set it to x seconds, so you set it up in the corner or something, back up into it, and go back to fighting without even turning your head, instead of pressing a switch that you have to aim at and push/interact with... love your basebuilds and vids, notonly25, have you considered an a21 darkness falls game? i'd love to watch you go for it sometime

    • @NotOnly25
      @NotOnly25  5 місяців тому

      Not sure, but stringing more than 2 fences together at a time does leave you open for one of the middle ones breaking and breaking the chain, so always preferable to do them in 2's where possible and know that the last one in line takes the damage. I would never string more than 2 together so I don't know the answer to your question I'm afraid. Thanks for watching!
