Simply put, I don't have an interest in pointing out this works both in SP, MP and in dedicated servers. During the day leading up to the blood moon, you start a high level infested mission (I did it and rechecked to confirm). While the mission is in progress and blood moon starts, the only zombies that will ever spawn, are those in direct affiliation with the mission you are doing. This still applies even if you die. There will be no zombies affiliated with blood moon. I was doing the initial mission in Dishong tower (Infested), and I recreated the incident in the very same tower with an identical mission. On day 7, I started both missions, and didn't deliberatedly die untill I was in the middle of the blood moon. I died by accident the first time around, which triggered the no zombies spawning for blood moon. I then waited till the next comming blood moon, and redid everything. started mission well before the horde should arrive, but intentionally didn't finish it. Then BM started, and I deliberately decided to die again, just to verify that I could recreate the bug. Which I did.. I then recreated it a SP and self hosted MP. all 4 times, I ended up with no blood moon zombies spawning, when dying during a mission and having blood moon active.

If I'm not mistaken, the tactical is based on a M4, which uses 5.56... I guess they use the same ammo, to make it easier for people to administer their ammo production/consumption. That they don't do the same amount of damage, probably comes down to the above. the tactical isn't fullauto either, you have to mod it for that feature. The M60 comes full auto, so you can add an other mod. But yes, there is no benefit from using the tactical for other purposes than as a backup.. And then there is the rarety of those guns... I haven't found a since of them, at any decent quality, and the M60 is quite often a mission reward.

Let's be honest, I have no idea where to put this, but this seems as good as any other place. I play a lightly modded MP server (most settings are vanilla, but we had the admin increase bullet stacks to 300, max level is 300 and we have respawning cars on the server, which is the only mod installed). We also had the owner enabled the log spikes for passive fortification against screamers. I myself, love the farming aspect, unfortunately, that also comes with some "problems". Me and my friend, have been playing since A10.4, so we have a great understanding of the game. Now, to my proposals. The return of the lead and brass ingots. I know, some people are having a hard time getting brass and finding other key materials, but that is simply becuse they don't know how to abuse the game itself. There are tons of sources for brass. cars, inhouse radiators, aircons, lamps etc etc. Not forgetting Wasteland Treasures volume 5 (brass from doors). I have included a screenshot of my current stockpile (yes, I said stockpile) of brass, which has, in lack of a better word, come to the amount of stupid. We get regular bullets from missions, we smelt those to get casings, and then we craft the AP we need (7.62 and shotgun) in bulk (stacks of 100). So far, I managed to have a permanent upkeep of a reserve of 13 stacks of shotgun AP ammo and a full crate of 7.62 AP ammo. all in stacks. And then there is the "overflow" of bullets that I smelted into good old fashioned brass. That now almost fulls a writable crate. I added SS of both types of ammo we use. And no, nothing we have, is admin powered. all is farmed the legit way. with legit tools and weapons. Current day on the server is 216, daytime is 18/6 and spans over 2 IRL hours. What I would love to get back, is the brass ingot. "Cooking" something like 1.000 brass and 50 clay into 1 ingot (at the cost of fuel and clay), would be awesome. or just have it at the same "cost" as forged iron, would be nice. Even the lead ingot would be usefull, as the only thing you can do to lead, is either 6k stacks or pack them into stacks (6k pr stack). Regards

Cannot Join Multiplayer Game, Stuck on Creating Character
Cruiser commented on Teckdragon's record in Work in Progress
So far, there is only 1 fix for this. You need to get in touch with the one who has direct server access. They need to do 1 of 2 things. 1. Delete your character, because the one you have, is bugged. 2, Have him/her restore an older backup of your character, if one exists. Just be carefull about this, since if either of the character versions had a drone out, you will no longer have the ability to place a new one. I hope this helps you. -
Okay, it turns out that this was only fixed through a restoration of a backup version of my character. Which in turn, led to a whole new problem with my drone. I mentioned this in a new post.
-
Okay, so nobody has ever mentioned the elephant in the room. The drone, that goes bunkers, if your character ever has to be recovered from a backup. This issue has persisted ever since they were introduced into the game (few weeks after introduction, a player onthe server, had to have his character restored) Personally, I play on a dedicated server, where I a week ago, had to have my character restored form a backup. Now, the server itself, went on as usual, but my character had to be rolled back roughly 18 hours. I can not remember which version of the chracter had the drone out, be it the one that was bugged or the one that came out of the backup. None the less, when I try to place a drone, it tells me, I already have one. And before anyone asks, I have been to the exact spots where the characters were. I went to the coords of the failed character, even dug into the ground, all the way to bedrock. Did the same for the character that was restored from a backup. I am not sure exactly what a future fix will have in store, but a suggestion could be to not have a dedicated server think a player has a drone, while the character information doesn't contain one (or vice versa), by extracting the information into its own file. Content of the file, could be as simple as a list of players ever generated, and have a true/false, level, mods etc etc listed. Currently, the only available fix to this, is deleting the characters information from the server. That means, ALL progression will be lost, making it pointless to even give it a go again, untill a new Alpha stable is released. Yes, an admin can give you XP and books, but when you only need a handfull of books for these new skills (I had learned every volume book), no admin in his/her right mind, is going to sit for 30 minutes and pump out 100 books of each type for you to read.

Yes Did you start a new game? Yes Did you validate your files? Yes Are you using any mods? Yes - Servertools with /home and /gimme enabled (not used in a long time) EAC ON Status: NEW Bug Description: Unable to rejoin server. Detailed steps to reproduce the bug: Unable to reproduce, single server issue, I try to login to the server, the same thing happens again and again. Actual result: So, the day before yesterday, I upgraded our base in size. After doing this, I am not entirely sure what I were doing, because I was super tired, but I remember logging out inside our base. Yesterday, I wanted to log back in and start doing some missions and mining, but I were met with a WRN warning in the console, as soon a I pressed the "continue" button. I did some checking with the other players, and they said I never logged ingame. In the afternoon, I tried again, and let my PC just "hang" there. While I never got past the continue button, I did get messages in the console about other players joining. This then had my friend do some checking for me. He said, that I was ingame, level 1 (I were above level 150), standing at 0.0, and while he was on top of me at altitude 67, I were directly beneath him 57 meters away, so I were at altitude 10 meters. I never saw the actual ingame stuff, and could not progress further than the "drop" of the console, where I got the WRN, which is also shown in the provided screenshot. I tried verifying files. I tried uninstalling and then reinstalling. I tried uninstall, shutdown, power on and reinstall. neither worked, and after each step, I tried to log into the gameserver. Expected result: That I would be able to rejoin the server without any kind of problems... Link to Pastebin Output Log: https://pastebin.com/FBVF2P33
