CHANGELOG v 1.0.5
Zombie corpses no longer lootable - they now drop an entity-specific red loot bag.
Tweaked container loot respawn - it now shows a timer for when the container will be lootable again.
Removed non-essential vehicle parts from loot & crafting.
Removed beds and bedrolls from crafting.
Removed LCB from crafting.
Removed treasure maps from loot.
Acid can now be made in the campfire, but a beaker is a required tool. Can also be crafted cheaper in the chem station.
Mod-specific loading screen tips.
Localization tweaks.
Perk books can now drop from zombies along with magazines. The chance of a perk book increases with the relevant perk points spent, just like skill magazines.
Loot tables adjusted accordingly, so certain zombies have a chance to drop certain perk books, just like skill magazines.
Removed Better Barter, Daring Adventurer and Charismatic Nature from the intellect skill tree.
Number of Dukes/old cash from Businessman/Party Girl is increased, probability increased from 10% to 20%.
Slight increase in oil shale from cement mixer loot.
Increased chance of antibiotics from nurses per perk point spent in Physician, up to a max chance of 35%.
Base chance of skill magazines from radiated zombies increased from 10% to 13%.
Changed the quest requirements for gathering gyro parts to reflect maxed-out Grease Monkey (removed a possible soft-lock)
Player placed workstations can be picked up with no need for a landclaim block. (Workstation MUST be empty of all tools, items, and materials for this to work)
This challenge places you, a lone survivor, in the eponymous Dishong Tower, a towering edifice of death incarnate. Your only means of escape is to gather everything you need to be able to craft a gyrocopter and make your escape from the rooftop to the nearby settlement. You have one life. Make it count.
A mini overhaul mod, re-imagined for Alpha 21. One tower, one trader, one means of escape.
Four custom worlds, each a different biome, so you can choose your starting "difficulty" - Forest, Desert, Snow, or the ultimate challenge, Wasteland.
Custom-edited Dishong Tower POI, giving you everything you need to be able to complete your quest.
Custom questline, guiding you on your way.
Custom HUD, and in-game options added for toggling crosshair visibility, health bar visibility, etc. Pause the game, and look for "Video", then the "Customize" tab.
Challenge Rules:
1: You must enter the Dishong Tower immediately (being on the front porch counts as being in) and cannot leave thereafter.
2: The rubble on the ground around the tower is NOT part of the tower, and as such may NOT be used to support any structures, or to grow any crops, unless you can do this WITHOUT touching it.
3: You may build bridges off the side of the building to reach things, but those bridges must support themselves and cannot touch the ground.
4: You may NOT mine or dig under the building.
5: All default game settings, unless you want to turn up the size of the hordes. It's recommended to have loot respawn set to 7 days and turn airdrops OFF.
6: If you die, the game is over.
7: You must survive until you are able to build a gyrocopter and fly off the roof.

###Credit to Glock9 for the very first idea of the challenge, which inspired the creation of the mod.
##Installation:
The mod comes already pre-bundled in a Mods folder - just extract that Mods folder into your base game directory, usually Steam\steampps\common\7DaystoDie, then run the game. Alternatively, the mod is on the mod launcher - just install it from there. This mod is optimized for Alpha 21.2, but should run on all Alpha 21 installations. When starting the game, make sure you choose one of the four game worlds called Dishong Challenge
