Every niofght the monster break the defensive line ad decimate the population of my colony. Whit a threat level of 300 i rely mainly on bows and a couple of crossbows. The problem is that i do not produce enough crossbow darts. I have around 1600 rations and 120 colonists, so getting new ones isn't really a problem. But the zombies survive the night and kill my dellow colonists at their workstations whil i try to kill whem with only bow and arrows. I have traps and a labirinth they need to cross, but the always get in because of the lack of crossbow darts. I simply do not produce enough copper, and if i do i do not produce enough darts for the night. Can anybody help?

Hi there,

I'm playing this game right now for the first time (Windows Version) and I'm having some trouble with the game controls.

What is that envelope that sometimes pops up? How can I open it? I found nothing about this so far, and the AI just tells me to use the cursor (??)

Are those messages even worth opening?

I want to start a playthrough of Colony Survival on my YT channel. I've been wanting to play this game for years ever since I watched the YOGScast play it however long ago that was. I'm not sure wether I should keep it vanilla for my first playthrough or if I should incorporate modded elements to it. If I were to add mods, which mods would you recommend?

Coming back to this game after many years and saw they have cherry trees among a whole host of other things, but from my brief googles, there doesn't seem to be much guidance on inputting world codes to get different starting areas. Is there a way to increase my odds of getting a good amount of Cherry trees to have my foresters plant (or a mod that let's me choose what trees foresters plant). I was breaking some blocks on a test world and they just dropped regular saplings. The tinker, mill, and quest system also seems interesting.

I Still love playing the old version 0.8.1 alot more than 0.9+ the massive overhaul feels like a completely differant game to me. I grew up playing this version when I was younger and when i cam back year+ later everything had changed. I did play alittle of the new version but the old one just feels better. I wish they had finished the arctic update so the game had a better sort of ending

I recently started a new game after 6 years and im wondering if some things have been removed from the game.

things like: coffee, olives, papyrus, etc

Is it no longer needed to travel great distances to the east and west to get these tradegoods?

We just finally cooked our memorial in colony survival.

Back to back here we go again

We farmed so long to actually finish all the quests 🙏

The coal plant, 2 houses, whatever temple, fission reactor, river of beds and the black box

I'm around 200 colonists in 0.17 and my colony has become a mess.

One of the most annoying issues is beds: even when I place beds right next to specific jobs (for example miners or guards), colonists keep choosing beds from other areas. This causes much longer walking times than I hoped for.

I'm also running out of space because farms take a lot of room, and my banner radius is getting too small (I have upgraded it once already).

I'm considering moving the banner and rebuilding with dedicated districts (farm area, mining area, industry, housing), but I don't want to lose my progress.

Is there a better way to manage bed assignments, or is a "clean rebuild" the normal approach at this stage?

The lights are made out of snow covered in torches. Very cheap and super bright. This is also helpful even you go by foot.

I can see the glasses last longer, but they're nowhere near as good. I'm currently setting my colony not to make glasses and to keep to Bronze. You would have thought the later technology of glasses would have been better than the previous tool.

Am I missing something other than duration?

for now, my best design is 4, im curious if theres something better. Also, is there a way to make something like a one way gate/path? Something that would give the ability to colonists to exit but not enter

I am in a famine right now so i am making a food fort is this a good design? anything I should change?

Hey I just started colony survival a couple days ago. My strategy is to build in the mountains I feel this is more secure and better reflects my playing still. While it is harder to get through the stone then it would be to build in the open I have two berry farms outside and one in the mountains along with one wheat farm in the mountains. Is there anything I can do to get through the stone faster right now I’m at stone tools. Will it get easier with high level tools or down that even material for the players

I’m playing with my boys and when I join his game it’s laggy. Takes awhile to break blocks and stuff. When I do /tps it’s only at 30 how do I get that up.

I found this funny bug while exploring my colony survival world and now the zombies can't reach me anymore.

A few screenshots from my 2nd largest city in that save. It was built as a port city on an older version and recently I came back to that save and started finishing some builds and decorating the cities.

When I finish the rest of the builds i may post more screenshots.

So I've been wondering what would happen if I place one outpost under seige mode?
Would all other outpost and main colony get the 6x food consumption or just the one?
Lastly are there any other consequences that outpost get for being in siege mode?
