This is interesting not just for turrets, but also has useful implications for powered doors. if a turret can track through those blocks, motion sensors work past those blocks as well. That could help solve the "two sides and one trigger" problem powered doors run into in a new and interesting way. I would be worried that cops will also see / spit through them though.

You want to know something that will blow your mind? Motion sensor can sense through walls :) It's the dumbest thing ever, and I found that out the hard way on my last base and had to rewire them because I was triggering the garage doors a floor above through concrete w/ a motion sensor. try it out!

Doing some (very) brief testing, some blocks that seem to work like the now patched Baluster Corner 01 are: Siding Burnt 01 - Has way less hit points then a full block would, but you can shoot straight through it and one side is identical to the side of a full block. Plate Bracket Centered - This is the magic block for now I think. Has full hit points and one face that is identical to a full block. Can shoot straight through it like it isn't there. Cube 1/2 Centered Confessional - Honorable mention. Doesn't have a full face like the previous two but you can shoot straight through it even if it is oriented side on such that there is no visible gap that you would be shooting through. Might be applicable in some niche ways. Happy building.

@@WaywardEko Most possibly lmfao Also, not sure if you know, but if you place Powered Hatches on a block on the floor (vertically to one side so the hatch door opens down towards the floor and closes upwards, you can set them with motion sensors so as to make the sensor tell the hatches when to open up when detecting zombies, and place turrets behind the hatches. Since the hatches will be closed with no motion, the turrets won't have any line of sight and thus not shoot unneccessarily at either normal zombies, or stuff like bunnies. Saves a lot of ammo and repairs for horde night. I have the hatches, and electric fences operating all by motion sensors so when a zombie shows up, everything is powered up for an instant, the zombie dies, and I don't waste much power usage in the process, but it's like a bunker. All closed up until a zombie shows up and the bunker opens up and turrets start raining hell on them then the hatches close again. It's fun, should give it a try.

I used trussing 3d in my horde base on my new playthrough, I only used it because it was one of the 2 blocks available in Alpha 9 to 12 that you could stand on and shoot through for horde base overhangs and now to see an OG keystone horde base component come back as a pivotal use in a horde base is kinda poetic. I didn't think to use it as a part of an endgame base to take advantage of its small hitbox, in fact I was annoyed when I upgraded a block I didn't intend to, through my trussing blocks. Will consider using these shapes as the weeks go by. Very concise and informative 7 Days to Die channel, subbed and liked.

We have a bigger area with a pit for pipe bombs and blade traps, BUT was thinking about making the floor of this pit out of steel bars, then add two blocks below so we can walk around and collect loot bag drops by looking up (only zombie issues SHOULD be cops spitting and demolitioners exploding. Is there a bar shake that would let the loot bags fall through? OR is there a slopped block that would have the bags all fall to a collection point (kind of thinking out loud here) and collect the stacks of loot Bags from A secure entry point???

No blocks that the loot bags would fall through. I have seen people build underground fighting positions so that when the zombies drop stuff, it rolls to the fighting position where you can snag it.

Cop spit is considered a bullet - so if you can shoot through they can. The trick is that zombies target you are the fastest way to get to you. So if you use that to your advantage and place turrets in flanking positions - it’s unlikely the cops will turn that direction to spit

This is interesting not just for turrets, but also has useful implications for powered doors. if a turret can track through those blocks, motion sensors work past those blocks as well.

Doing some (very) brief testing, some blocks that seem to work like the now patched Baluster Corner 01 are: Siding Burnt 01 - Has way less hit points then a full block would, but you can shoot straight through it and one side is identical to the side of a full block. Plate Bracket Centered - This is the magic block for now I think. Has full hit points and one face that is identical to a full block. Can shoot straight through it like it isn't there. Cube 1/2 Centered Confessional - Honorable mention. Doesn't have a full face like the previous two but you can shoot straight through it even if it is oriented side on such that there is no visible gap that you would be shooting through. Might be applicable in some niche ways. Happy building.

@@WaywardEko Most possibly lmfao Also, not sure if you know, but if you place Powered Hatches on a block on the floor (vertically to one side so the hatch door opens down towards the floor and closes upwards, you can set them with motion sensors so as to make the sensor tell the hatches when to open up when detecting zombies, and place turrets behind the hatches. Since the hatches will be closed with no motion, the turrets won't have any line of sight and thus not shoot unneccessarily at either normal zombies, or stuff like bunnies. Saves a lot of ammo and repairs for horde night. I have the hatches, and electric fences operating all by motion sensors so when a zombie shows up, everything is powered up for an instant, the zombie dies, and I don't waste much power usage in the process, but it's like a bunker. All closed up until a zombie shows up and the bunker opens up and turrets start raining hell on them then the hatches close again. It's fun, should give it a try.

I used trussing 3d in my horde base on my new playthrough, I only used it because it was one of the 2 blocks available in Alpha 9 to 12 that you could stand on and shoot through for horde base overhangs and now to see an OG keystone horde base component come back as a pivotal use in a horde base is kinda poetic. I didn't think to use it as a part of an endgame base to take advantage of its small hitbox, in fact I was annoyed when I upgraded a block I didn't intend to, through my trussing blocks.

Yes - sorry - cop spit is a bullet type I believe and thus can pass through.
How does this work in A22?

They fixed the baluster block ... all the rest is still relevant in A21.
what block can you shoot thru but cops cant spit thru or see you?

Cop spit is considered a bullet - so if you can shoot through they can. The trick is that zombies target you are the fastest way to get to you. So if you use that to your advantage and place turrets in flanking positions - it’s unlikely the cops will turn that direction to spit

@@WaywardEko i dunno if they changed the cops spit in the recent update or the blocks cos the bars i was using before spit didnt get thru and now it goes thru.. is it better to have turrets one block up so they go for headshots or does the turret automatically aim for the head?
When did they change/nerf the arrow slits? And more important WHY? Not being able to repair through them is stupid.

I am fairly certain that it was introduced with A20 experimental -- definitely saw that really early. I'm just confused how the code decides that, because I can't find another attribute in the XML that would govern that.

@@WaywardEko But it is still a stupid decision. There is an opening right through the middle to interact with the other side. Why can't I repair stuff on the other side??
And the stupid part is that frame block with shape of ramp cant be shoot through

Is this related to why you will get rained on while indoors? 🧐

I would say yes ... except that it also rains through all the solid blocks you can't shoot through :)

The baluster block got patched out, but I believe the rest is still valid.
Ill just use perhaps 3 layers of the metal truss 3d to cage my self protected while i can shoot the zombies in my secure location jobs where u have to kill 100+ zombies that just keep spawning untill u hit the kill count lol

@@mikecarter3983 Nope. I believe the cop vomit counts as bullet/arrow type projectile and will go through. No answer to shooting out but stopping that. I think the best use case here is for traps that are offset from your fighting position as it's unlikely for cops to target them.

@@WaywardEko I solved the vomit problem by making myself a mod that seriously nerfs the vomit. With my mod installed the cops can only vomit for about a 6 meter distance and the vomit does only five hit points worth of block damage now.

Just use flipped and inversed scaffolding ladders so they act as bars. Blocks most vomits, you can shoot and melee through.
Bruh... okk I don't care about wiring. What are all the blocks with no bullet collision? Baluster rails or whatever are really chunky so I'd like to know what the others are. I need a TLDR list because this video seems mislabeled and just talks about wiring and repairing for most of these blocks...

@@WaywardEko you literally only spoke about wiring most of the video then said, "mustve acdidentally shot this one away" leading me to believe that the line up had everything to do with the only thing you were talking about (wiring) and nothing to do with bullet collision unless you mentioned it on the specific block... I'm good. I just tested in prefab editor and tester. Don't tag me again
