Just remember... while you are sleeping a disciple will tear through the barricades and kill you.

[Orb]

Just remember... while you are sleeping a disciple will tear through the barricades and kill you.

Thats why you sleep in the middle of a shop. Now you dont waste time building a barricade just so a disciple can find you! 

[cowofdoom78963]

Well my foods ran out so I went out to look for more...

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

wow. People just leave foods lieing all over the place.

[MetalSlimeHunt]

It also seems they've been careless with their weapons. And blood. And bones. And organs.

Tisk. Tisk.

[Saint]

That won't stop them.

It does when said zombie is unable to path to you, I find they time out if you have 2 tiles or more of space they cannot see through in a row.

[Cthulhu]

Yeah, but some zombies are especially hate objects, and will smash any furniture they find.

Trust me, if you stay in a building more than a few days, you'll notice exploratory attacks on your barricades.

He's right. I stayed in an unraided general store for a few days and they broke right past my barricade. Several dozen zombies, lead by a Zombie Master, swarmed in and ate me.

[cowofdoom78963]

I stood in that shop for 16 days and the front shelf was untouched.

So far I have been doing alright, but I was almost killed by a disciple. Though thanks to the pile of medkits I found that some people droped I managed to survive by the skin of my teeth. It's day 21 I think.

The district simulation at this point takes way too long.

[MetalSlimeHunt]

Yeah, base settings have my simulation time at 45 seconds. Max settings are 3 minutes 50 seconds. Ugh.

[cowofdoom78963]

bah. Died to suprise diciple. It just spawned on top of me and instadeath. How lame.
Though I did pretty good up to that point. I kicked zombie ass left and right for 28 days. Well... more like 12 days...

[Dakk]

The trick is to fully barricade the front doors and THEN putting the shelves in place. Zombies seem to have a preference for smashing furniture rather then barricades, so it'll last much longer. I slept inside a huge grocery store for almost 20 days beore they started actualy breaking in.

[KaelGotDwarves]

huh, does food respawn in those grocery shops? I keep swapping districts when things get too hot in the current one.

[Jervous]

The one thing you have to think about is: Location, location, location. See a house that has one entrance concealed by 3 cars you can jump over? Great. Cars are the best defense.


You guys actually wait for the district time simulation..?

[Thexor]

I don't believe so, no. Dead survivors will, however, drop their groceries - which creates a pretty convincing illusion of respawning stuff.

[nichaey]

I've been holed up in a gun store for almost a month now. I lucked out and spawned a shopping district with ~9 stores in it.
