Zombies still exist because their backstory has changed to that of a normal zombie apocalypse. That’s why it’s called “Classic Zombies” :P.

But they still get back up which is due to the thing that caused the other stuff in the first place, meaning that if that thing was removed from the classic zombie mod, they wouldnt get back up 😃

Yes im totally just picking on stuff from the game, but thanks for the explanation, guess after my charachter dies im just gonna go back to fighting all kinds of Z 🙂

Accuracy is helped by perception, damage is boosted by strength.

So will throwing be useful if you have high perception, but low dex and str?

higher dex to hit better then str to hit harder then finally perception to throw accurately at longer ranges. (by longer at least higher than 7 tiles)  
So Dex\>Str\>Per and combat knives are good throwing weapons and lighter than javelins just make sure you have at least 2-3 for each normal zombie normally 1 combat knife if you get the headshot in.

I have question for you guys playing 0.6 git release/nightly builds. have you found vaccine shots in the game already? (they are meant to be rare cause it provides a large healthy boost) just need some statistics/proof that they can be found from time to time in places that spawns non addiction drugs.

You probably need to “clean the window frame” with the construction menu.

Oh, oops. Misread the question :P. It is possible to make windows with curtains, if you look at the window construction then the final STAGE will convert it into a domestic window. If you didn’t have all of the required components for that stage when you built it the first time, then the construction would have stopped early and you would be left with a window without them. Once you have the required components simply select to build window and then choose the window you want to upgrade and it should upgrade it just fine.
