Merida Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Their known issues list is so long that by the time they address those, A17 will be a done thing and they will move on to A18. So I don't really see any real RWG improvements until A18. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackelmyer Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Patience guys. Just in case you missed this from kinyajuu 4 weeks ago in the dev diary thread. That's largely why I wish they could get a full time person on RWG. It's kinda the red headed step feature that everyone wants and loves. It's not that fataal can't get it going, he's just not able to prioritize it. Kind of a bummer considering how many use RWG and seek RWG for a core component of what they like about the game.

Roland Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 There will be more RWG fixes for 17.2. Kinyajuu has already done some things to improve it and is still working on it. They committed internally A17.2 b9 today. Sorry, I don't know a timeline for when it will be released to experimental. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Roland, is there anyway you can get a feel from Kinyajuu for people starting a new RWG play through? Worth waiting for 17.2 or changes coming are going to be minor at the moment?

Worth waiting for 17.2 or changes coming are going to be minor at the moment? One of the internal testers asked if it was ready for them to start testing and giving bug reports and Kinyajuu said not quite yet so I'm not sure yet how significant the changes will be. I just know he has turned his attention to it so improvements should start rolling in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Progress is being worked on. Thanks for the update and feed back Roland! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roland I'm sure you don't know about this but the picture MM posted to his Twitter page showed an island build are they planning on different worlds like small islands, continents, all land, or any number of other world build types. I think that the island MM showed would be good enough. I think it would be awesome to have a bunch of options. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks That would be awesome if you could configure RWG more in your favor rather than just constantly throw darts at the wall and hope your next RWG is good, especially when it now takes a very long time to generate a new RW. Like tell it "have a lot of oceans" or "have no water, or not much", "make a lot of caves"... ok I'm probably dreaming, but you can't tell me it wouldn't be fun to have a RWG the way you want it... lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khulkhuum Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 One thing i wish they would update is how the stability calculation is done. For instance, add some kind of indicator that there is a ground level (or a big portion of ground under checked blocks) which is decided as "stable ground" on which you can build, but also dig underneath (at a reasonable depth) that wouldn't compromise the stability. Additional checks or changes to the "stable ground" marker would be done only if blocks in the vicinity are "updated" and not needing to perform hundreds of calculations each second. I see the potential of caverns and underground POIs appearing, but then again i wonder how much of a strain it would be against the CPU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LuckyStar Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 You people never learn. NEVER play RWG before update XX.3 or .4. That's decent advice. Here's a baby lama for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khulkhuum Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 I don't mind the lack of indication for losing stability. On the other hand, i have read quite a lot about pertaining it and new players will have it difficult to get into it right off the bat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
