Hey Survivalist,
We’ve just released Alpha 16.3 Patch. Which includes fixes for many of the most important bugs reported by the community.
It is strongly recommended to start a new RWG map, as the fixes necessitated core changes to the chunk code. We apologize for this inconvenience.

For those of you that experience any problems please use your steam client to delete local files and reinstall the game. Also wiping your player profile data might be helpful. To delete the saved game and player profile data delete all files and folders that reside here: C:\Users\yourName\AppData\Roaming\7DaysToDie
Official Alpha 16.3 Release Notes!

Changed

Terrain generation rules to not generate so many jagged peaks in rwgmixer.xml
Socket generation rules in rwgmixer.xml
Challenge quests yield more skill points
Tuned in weapon bob when running and walking for new smooth bob code

Fixed

The issue where chunks would no longer load due to faulty triggers , which causes players to be stuck on building environment (NRE spam on server) is fixed, but requires a new map, as it does nto work retroactively.
The issue where minibikes and the power.dat would not save properly is fixed.
A reason where the game freezes while “Creating player” is fixed.
