FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What are Apex Coins and how can I use them?

Apex Coins are our currency that you can earn in-game by simply playing the game. You earn 1 coin per minute you are in-game and 1 coin per zombie kill on 7D2D. You can also earn 200 Apex Coins every time you vote on each server. The donor multiplier is applied to each coin per minute, voting rewards and each zombie kill.

On each of the 7D2D servers, there is an in-game shop where you can purchase items that you would be able to acquire in the world. You can check your balance by typing /wallet in-game chat.

The shop can be accessible through the escape menu in-game. The links for these shops can also be found at the following links:

On PVP you are allocated 3 active landclaim blocks.
Custom, Vanilla, & Modded servers you are allocated 2 active landclaim blocks.
What is drop mining and why am I jailed?
Drop Mining is the result of any action that causes a large collapse of blocks.  This can be done by mining without installing proper supports for the mine, removing structural support in a POI, or by collateral damage from the use of explosives.

We suggest putting supports every 5 blocks under a surface to ensure that drop mining won’t occur.

If you drop mine you will be warned and the APG Team will be notified.  If you drop mine a lot of blocks, you will be jailed and the APG Team will be notified.
How do I join your Discord?

We post frequently about what is going on with the server, including wipes, changes, and events on our Discord channel. We highly suggest joining our Discord to stay up to date on all of the happenings and chat with others!

What do I do if no one is in game to help me?

APG aims to have enough team members across time zones to have someone available in-game at all times, but there it is always possible someone is not in-game to assist you. You can always create a ticket in Discord and one of our team members will assist you as soon as we can! 

Where can I make suggestions to improve the server?

Suggestions from players are always encouraged so we can make adjustments to the server based on what the players want! We have our suggestion channel in our Discord where you can write anything that you think needs improving or suggest new ideas.

How often do the servers wipe?

Our 7 Days to Die PVE servers wipe every 6 weeks
Our 7 Days to Die PVP server wipes monthly
Our 7 Days to Die Modded servers wipe based on player activity
Our Vanilla server is intended to rarely ever wipe so players can play at their leisure. 

What do I do if I have lost my vehicle?

It is common for players to lose their vehicle, especially during scheduled restarts. Most often their vehicle will be along the path they were traveling or where they first got on the vehicle. 

There are troubleshooting commands you can try to have Bishop deliver your vehicle back to you. The command is /vehicle (vehicle equaling whatever type of vehicle it is: /bicycle /motorcycle /minibike /jeep /gyrocopter)

If these commands do not work for you and you have searched along the path you were on, it will generally show up after a bit. If it cannot be found, please create a ticket and we will locate it for you or replace it until it shows up.

Why is there so much lag on this server?

The Fun Pimps have not optimized 7 Days to Die to run with more than 8 people on the server. Therefore, there will be lag. Sometimes worse than other times, but you will encounter it. When a player is downloading the world, that will also cause lag which is why when new seeds are launched, the lag can be worse. Just please be patient and it will work itself out. This is another reason we have 90-minute restarts to ensure that the server is running to the best of its ability. 

Another thing we suggest to improve lag is to disable your dynamic mesh in the video settings of the game. You will have to log out of the server to be able to toggle this on or off.

How do I verify my Steam files?

Sometimes verifying your Steam files can help resolve issues where you are not able to log in. To verify your files, you go to your Steam library – right click on 7 Days to Die – click “Local Files” – then click “Verify Integrity of Game Files”

What is Donor City and how do I live there?

It is a central area where you can have vending machines for players to buy things from and trade with other players. To get to Donor City you can type the command /city in game chat.

Why can't I access any boxes or loot?

If you attempt to use teleport commands while inside storage, a loot crate, or a workstation, you will encounter a glitch that prevents access to storage boxes, workbenches, and loot interaction. This issue will be resolved during the 90-minute scheduled restart. Regrettably, this is the only remedy for this horrible disease. Therefore, exercise caution when initiating teleport commands and ensure that you are not in any form of inventory to prevent this temporary infection!
