Wiki
Field notes for two private servers that share a password and a bad name. Read the page that matches the problem you actually have. The rules are the short version of what you owe other people.
Project Zomboid on this server is build 42.21 with a fixed Workshop list: first person through Project Viewpoint, a grid inventory from Knox, Gael’s guns, extra food, and a skill journal so a death is expensive instead of final. Tekxit 4 is the Fabric 1.19.2 pack, pinned here at 16.8.4, which means tech and exploration on the same map: Create, Open Parties and Claims, meteors, riftways, and chunk loaders that will punish a careless base.
Nothing here is a secret wiki that drifts away from the games. If a key or a mod name on these pages disagrees with what the game just showed you, the game is right and the page should be corrected. Threads on the board are where that correction usually starts.
New on Zomboid: do the first night, then the loader, in that order if you are already in, and in the other order if you cannot get in. New on Tekxit: start there, then claim land before you build a machine.
