My questions Thread

[Waylander The Origional 21]

Turns out I have a lot more to ask, so Ill keep it all in the one thread.

1: Do doors stop zombies from entering

2: Can zombies use ladders

3: How can I communicate with others on my server.

4: Do zombies have any worthwhile loot.

5: How do I use my flashlight

I shall update this as I die more. I have gone from being owned anywhere within a 5 block radius of a zombie to actualy managing to loot now.

To make a more educated reply to you're question.

Drogur if you are going to answer question's please put more detail and effort into it.

1: Do doors stop zombies from entering

Doors will not stop a zombie from entering, although when u close a door the zed's lose the Line of sight and you can get away that way.

2: Can zombies use ladder

Yes zeds can use a ladder, you can just shoot them off while they are climbing up to you.

3: How can I communicate with others on my server.

Press the Backslash key if you want to Text chat \ \

Press the , and . to switch channels, holding down Capslock will enable Voice chat as long as it's held down, Double tapping Capslock 2 times will enable voice chat untill you double tap it again to turn voice chat off.

4: Do zombies have any worthwhile loot.

Some Zed's can drop ammo ( Ammo is kind of rare to drop ) the more common item that a zed will drop is Food and Drink. Some people consider it a rare drop, but it will drop more frequently then ammo.

5: How do I use my flashlight

Press G to open you're inventory, Right click the Flashlight, Select remove from toolbelt, Press the L key to turn it on and off.

Here is what each channel does and is.

Side channel --- Readable all over the server, Most servers do not like people using Voice comms in this channel.

Direct communication --- Readable in a certain area around you (40m) This is Generally the channel you use when you are with you're squad mates OR other players are near you, and you do not want anyone who is not near you to hear you talking.

Vehicle channel --- People within the Vehicle can hear you.

Group Channel --- Used for chatting in the lobby.
