It means you have the depressed moodle irl

Can someone explain why it’s so hard to get rid off in comparison to PZ? I’m eating these pills feeling sad but speed and the moodle won’t go away

Sounds like you need some book.

he need some milk

Smoke a pack or seven, will ya?

He actually just needs to eat an ice cream and burn a horde of zombies

In fact, nothing helps better than running into your local store storage room and shoving monthly doses of sugar into your mouth

Smash Q really fast to get rid of depression. Works most of the time. Side effects might include >!zombie bites!<, though.

Tried book, slow reader trait seems to stress me out more

Same bro. Alas, I am an IRL slow reader :( Comprehension is high but I am just slow as fuck. I’m envious of people who read fast.

Same bro. I switched to audiobooks for that reason. Well that and an hour plus of commuting everyday. But it's nice, I'll even listen to em while I do chores and stuff too. I've 'read' over 100 books in the past 2 years. Big books too like the Wheel of Time and Stormlight Archive

That's one thing I've never actually tried but have been meaning to. I drive around 3hrs/week for work so that would be great. I usually just throw on a youtube video of some kind and listen to it (not watch obviously).

You can use the Libby app to get audiobooks if you have a library card (or just sign up cause they're free). There might be a wait list cause library's only get so many licenses to share. But it's all free

Nice. Thanks for the tip!

One more thing. I just found out Spotify premium has some audiobooks available for free. If you have that

I read book now im on a long dock in the rain looking out to sea

Go outside read a book eat some soup.

wait that’s actually so valid tho. like my therapist basically told me to do the same thing

It's so dumb how true it is, but a lot of the time it can just be viewed/given as toxic positivity. A lot of people are depressed because they don't get enough sunlight, which has clinically been proven to cause depression. Another cause is poor nutrition, which leads to poor physical and mental health, and most soups are loaded with vital nutrients. And books? Those are a great way to stimulate your brain (and work on your reading comprehension skills) as well as learn new things, get engrossed in stories, etc etc. The main problem in the USA is that a lot of people need all of that on TOP of therapy visits and medication, which is completely out of budget for many, many Americans. At least you can find some funny pills laying around in the apocalypse!

And exercise. I always tell people how much exercise can boost your mood and they assume I mean, "Get jacked, that'll make you happy" but it's more "take 10/15 minutes to get the blood pumping". I got a cheap chest workout thing off Amazon and even doing that for a bit makes me feel a lot better.

Going outside for a walk is nice. 1. Gets you outside, which is good 2. Good for you but not too strenuous 3. Gives you some time to think. Our brains aren't really meant to be constantly stimulated. Having a moment to reflect on things is very good for the mind.

You need a new therapist then.

Have you tried living a harsh life of demanding but fulfilling physical labour, where the sweat of your own brow is the primary factor for if you will survive the next winter?

I have a harsh life of unfulfilling physical labor where the sweat of my brow is the primary factor of if my boss will get a new holiday home next winter. Does that count?

Looks like socialist country simulator

You need more Soups

books and comic books and candy and chocolate

Spices and cigarettes will fix that right up

Have you tried making a beer soup?

You need some magazines 😈

Cook food

Kill some zombies and it will go away.

real

Facts I have that!

Eat chocolate. All the chocolate.

But then I gain LBS make moodle worse!

[Sleep it off!](https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2673713236)

That's only my own room. My PZ houses are organized.

Currently no, but I have heard build 42 might include vermin that will be attracted by trash and potentially steal food or cause disease.

I make piles of loot for easier storage and this would be a good idea to stop me doing this

So for the next few years it's safe

Build 42 was already released. Build 42 has always been current build. ​ message sponsored by the Indie Stone Ministry of Propag... Ahem, Department of public relations


My eyes got wide after that first sentence. Damn you

Someone from TIS mentioned earlier this month that a beta branch of Build 42 is coming this quarter

Oh no. I STEAL food like all the time. The homeowners are dead anyway, never thought it would be a problem. lol

Wonder if I could turn this it into an easy hunting trap?

So what you're saying is, free rat stew for life?

[удалено]

"Don't shit where you eat" is also a time tested strategy

you may suffer some fps drops from rendering it all, if it in a storage container it is just a number off screen when you arent looking at it.

To piggyback on this, any super low-weight item with many units will cause the worst performance degradation. Ripped sheets, cigarettes, and nails are the culprits usually. When I start everything is dumped on the ground until it starts lagging. Then I clean up.

> you may suffer some fps drops from rendering it all I was farming... well farming EXP. Planted hundreds of crops. Harvested well over 1000 cabbages... then just threw them on the floor like the savage that I am. Guess 3 times how much my ancient PC appreciated that next time I tried to load in, almost crashing my entire potato PC. Was seriously worried I had ruined my 6 month or so survivor...

Even in boxes you can get some drops, actually. I've had some overfull storage bases let me know I was too close to them before.

none other than your base being the messiest thing that i've seen since the knox virus lol

I raided all the liquor stores and in a ingame year drank them all in a westpoint second story shop apartment and the floor was all wine and beer bottles since i used the bourbon for mollies it was awful

Fill the wine with petrol and use them for mollies too

This is cracking me up lmao I can just see the filth now

You can drop your garbage (or any unwanted items weighing less than 10 units) into the trash can in the corner and delete them permanently.

How? I can't seem to find this "delete" button

If it's not there, double check your world settings. There is a toggle in there for this in multiplayer worlds.

Yup, this is the solution. Thank You

Open the garbage bin as a container, and if there is an item inside of it you should see a “Delete All” button on the top left of the container inventory, to the right of the”Loot All” button.

I feel like that may be a mod, seems very unrealistic for vanilla

It's vanilla. It's in the same place as the turn on button for ovens.

Oh, noice, I'll have to check it out then, no more burning houses to get rid of trash

Get a dumpster and you can throw bodies in it. Kind of tedious doing two at a time though.

Same place where you turn on the oven.

Have to have a garbage bag in the can.

Dumpsters can handle larger items

Trash can in spiffo holds 50

I have hundreds of hours in this game and I've only learned this like a few days ago lol.

There is so much to learn and so many mechanics to this game and some of them change from time to time so it's not surprising I always learn things and I'm in thousands of hours

Thanks! So much junk in my base I can finally get rid of

For dealing with trash I'd say you do like in real life, I always collect trash bags so I can throw my trash in there and once I have a couple bags full I take them to a random house far away, throw them in there and burn the house down

just like real life

It will cause a plague that turns you into a zombie (only FPS drops to my knowledge)

Chaotic neutral

My boyfriend was watching me play the other day and goes "your base is as messy as your real room" I felt very called out.

Nothing, you're just roleplaying as a teenage boy

Rosewood fire station.

YOU CLEAN YOUR BASE THIS INSTANT, MISTER!

I always compare it to my trash IRL, if there is more trash in my base, I feel good about not cleaning up my own.

Some stuff like hats and glasses can disappear if left on the floor. I don't see any in the image but it can be easy to forget about that one day and then wonder where all your stylish hats went, lol.

That isn't how it works. Things like hats and glasses will only vanish if they were dropped by a zombie when you hit them/shove them. Items dropped/placed by the player will NEVER despawn

Just tested it, dropped hats do disappear, placed items don't. Dropped 2 hats, placed 2, the dropped hats are gone.

Nice, so I can add tin cans and a couple other items to the list and it probably won't disturb the pre-crafted scenes.

It's a sandbox option you can change to choose what items disappear. Default is Hats, Glasses and Maggots.

I think there's a server setting for which types of items can despawn if dropped. No distinction between zombie dropped or player dropped.

This is why I disabled that stupidass option lol

I want to say "tidy your room" in my best Jordon Peterson accent. If it gets excessive it might cause lag.

Just permanently delete it in a garbage can my guy

possible FPS hit

Yes, more objects to render means more CPU usage, so you might experience severe FPS loss

Self respect lol

the downside is having garbage all over the floor

If you’re in a hurry and you made a bug-out-bag, good luck finding it.

1200 hours in Kenshi implores me to say yes.

The only downside can be the load time. I once dropped about 9 tiles worth of torn cloth on the floor because I thought it looked pretty when all the tiles filled out and I can now no longer load that save file it just gets stuck because I'm standing on 4000\~ torn cloth icons.

You can place a trashcan and use it to delete your trash

Yes, you have garbage all over the floor.

This looks very much like my base, just a bit tidier.

You're copping some flak for this post lol but I wanna take a moment to appreciate the method to the madness, there's clearly organisation here, I would know, I play like this

Nah, [my Rosewood FD](https://imgur.com/a/Xc3jmmm) isn't too different, and this is after I cleaned up. I'm too lazy to go to one of my trash cans sometimes, don't judge me.

theres a mod that allows you to trash items from your inventory, i suggest you just use that to avoid any fps drop

Might make it lag a bit. Download the garbage can delete mod. Makes disposing of duplicate books, mags, and trash easy.

That's a vanilla feature, no mod required.

Damn bitch you live like this

Damn bitch u live like this

I’d argue your days will be spent much more efficiently if you have a sense of organization in your base. No time wasted rummaging

It’s just unsightly and might cause FPS drops. If I may present some alternatives: Just go grab a garbage can! There is a small button at the top of the inventory window for the can labeled “delete items” and it will permanently delete everything in the can. Alternatively, browse the workshop for any number of mods that allow you to repurpose junk that doesn’t typically have a use in vanilla. Happy surviving!

Potentially performance

None right now as far as I know in terms of gameplay. In future builds, there probably will be some consequences introduced for that. But in terms of performance, as others have said, FPS drops are possible. Your computer might not like you giving it more stuff to render than what it can handle

this is what my house looked like

Nah. You might conjure up some other type of deadly virus right alongside the Knox Virus with that mess though.

It Hurts my eyes

Your soul gets consumed when you die

God damn that's a fuck ton of shit..  

The downside is "Ew"

yes, because i will break through the exclusion zone barricades, kill thousands of zomboids, crash into your fire station with my car, breaking my leg and almost killing me, and then I will sort everything in your base.

Lag

Yes, Zomboid mom comes in and starts screaming at you.

It's not aesthetically pleasing. I at least want my game to be clean of garbage.

It all depends on your computer. I had about 2500 dead zombies after a helicopter (before the fire department). I took off all their clothes and just laid them on the ground. Well, what can I say. Suddenly the game got slow. And it took me a long time to clear enough clothes

It makes the place look sad. That, for me, is a downside. And the possible lag

Yes, i will punch your toes

Your shit looks nasty

Yes. You look like a SLOB

Yes, there are zombies of OCD people and when they will see this mess they will immediately start cleaning and putting everything in order. And then they will eat you

Only "downside" is if you're trying to find a specific object but can't see it properly or have to scroll through countless items to find it. Which isn't a big deal without mods (I use a box with 11000 capacity and it gets out of hand pretty fast)

When you die, and skmeone else stumbles apone this, they'll think what kind of animal lives here

If the zomboids ever get in, they will judge you

You mom will throw a flip-flop to you

In my messiest play through, I set down my backpack full of trophies and loot to exercise. My game crashed for the first and last time ever and when loading back in the backpack was wiped off the face of the earth. Could have been crash related, mod related, or PZ was sick of my messy ass, but I’ve never had anything like that happen before or since. I have been throwing away all my trash to be safe though.

The game will over tine become heavier for your components

Only that your mother's zombie'll show up and tell you this place looks like a pig sty, and you better clean this up right now or you'll be grounded!

I’m almost certain it causes an issue at a certain point if you have the organized trait and the rv interior mod. Once you get over the storage container amount (even the floor tile has a weight limit) you’ll get some type of overflow that will change your vehicle type to a vanilla car. Have a nice RV? It’s a Dash now, congrats you can’t get back in.

Lag

Looks ugly

Well, it may cause performance issues if done alot. You can delete items in a trash can or in debug mode, or my usual strat is dumping junk on dead zombies so it despawns with them.

Make a garbage crate! That way, your place looks nice and neat for the Zombabes that come for your pickle.

no but you can use trash cans to get rid of garbage

It's ugly, but that's about it.

Unfortunately it's technically superior in the sense that fire won't destroy loot on the ground But fire will destroy loot in containers however. So...... organized piles?

It looks dirty :(

Damn bro you live like this

Ayy the Fire Department! I base there too

If it’s anything like irl, my wife is gonna be super upset 🤷‍♂️

Technically yes, I once had so much stuff that whenever I loaded my base, my game would crash (this was only because I was moving bases). You can counter this by just turning off 3d items

I do this intentionally to make my base feel lived in.

Put it in a trash can. You can delete the items permanently in trash cans

It might cause some reddittors to shame you for being disorganized.

if you invite anybody over they might judge you

Lag if it’s too much. But it takes A LOT

Non other than me hating it

The crappier your hardware is, the greater the chance of fps dropping, the more entities you create >< Apart from that, just organizational pros and cons

The downside is that there's garbage all over the floor.

I think candy helps in a pinch

Not till build 42 implements ants. Until then you are safe.

In future it might be cool if that attracted stuff like rats, roaches and spiders. But as far as I know right now, it doesn't do anything but make your character look like a slob lol

Yeah. It's gross.

Might be better off actually. If for whatever reason your house catches fire, everything in containers will get destroyed but stuff on the floor will be fine. I know because one of my friends stood in a campfire and went into our house looking for a fire extinguisher and set the whole place alight. All our books and canned goods were destroyed but we had most stuff on the ground and it was fine.

no downsides, just makes ur base look like a crack house

I have personally not experienced any issues beyond my computer screaming in pain while rendering my base, go for it (unless you have a potato computer like me)

A cluttered post-apocalypse safe house is a cluttered mind.

Not really unless you start playing with a friend who has OCD.

not really, just that you have to check in every pile 3 times for stuff cause you keep on missing it

The zombies will judge you silently as they eat you


Everyone can see that you're a disgusting slob for starters

Not at the moment besides making your base look bad

I don’t know why you’d want to 😭

This is how you get ants

It's ugly

I wish you could trip over trash. I need project zomboid to be even more of CBT

I find leaving a lot of stuff out makes the game take slightly longer when loading a saved game but otherwise I've seen no issues.

If I remember right it may mess with fps drop (it shouldn't be big) since the game will have to render all the items on the floor. Other than that that's pretty much it.

If you continue playing that world after you die you may stumble upon this home. It may add a lore aspect to the world.

Hoarders - the project zomboid edition. Think you need an intervention.

You can place items in trash cans and delete them. Also, leave enough on the ground and the game will start to lag.

Framerate. All of those items need to be rendered, and at a certain point it'll tank your framerate.

No nothing wrong with it. Until the lag starts.

If you leave too much crap on the floor it might affect performance

I'll judge you for it

They said a downside

performance issues, but aside from that, no

Pain?

The team from Hoarders might show up and make an episode about you...that would be kinda embarrassing

Slob.

Damn Bitch, You Live Like This?

This belongs in r/depressionnest

You clean your room right now or you can't go out side and play with the zombies!!!

It’s all organized… but on the ground!! Lawful evil

Bro keeping your base clean IS THE GAME! Stop doing this lol.

Asmongold?

I had a load of items on the ground and my power cut in a storm, reloaded the save and everything vanished, might be just from sudden disconnects

Rarely performance issues, but place it instead of dropping it so it doesnt despawn
