knarox Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Hi all, a little idea for cooperate gameplay. Adding an option to spawn together, so you dont have to search for eachother. Searching is nice but sometimes it would be more nice just to start together. Technical the following player will spawn at the same location or very close to the host. You could go one step deeper and say you can make n groups and you can select a group where you want to spawn. This spawning will only be working when joining the first time or/and maybe the firt n minutes. How do you guys like this idea? Greetings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoppaTot Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 I like that everyone spawns far away from each other. It leads to different traders in the starter quests, discussions of what they were around when they spawned, what cool POIs they can make and share, ect.

theFlu Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 As an idea, it's nice. You would need a way to premake the groups, or at least have a "pick your spawn point" dialog in the first login. Wouldn't oppose at face value. If you want to edit it in into your friendly peer-to-peer game, you can quite easily. You can edit the spawnpoints.xml of your world, remove all entries but one and you should be spawning there.

knarox Posted February 1, 2019 Author Share Posted February 1, 2019 I was thinking of it as an additional option. Not to replace the old one. It can be very interesting to spawn in different location - like you said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khulkhuum Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 I would see this as an enhancement to the existing options, where you can choose to select the first spawn point at the start (or any of the spawn points) or random. This way we can have many spawn points written, but decide what you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knarox Posted February 14, 2019 Author Share Posted February 14, 2019 yes you can set the amount of spawn point and choose a number before join. optional maybe only chooseable for the first time or until day x in game is reached or until x realtime minutes are over.

Royal Deluxe Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 hmm maybe only one option. "Spawn all at/near 0.0" Sure would be a bit problematic on PVP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knarox Posted February 14, 2019 Author Share Posted February 14, 2019 you could disable this feature on a pvp server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royal Deluxe Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 The other question is why people not simply teleport to their friend if they play local/as admin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoppaTot Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 The other question is why people not simply teleport to their friend if they play local/as admin Because if the game wanted us to spawn on top of each other, we would. It literally takes around 10 - 20 minutes to meet up with people on the map?.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knarox Posted February 15, 2019 Author Share Posted February 15, 2019 This feature would allow to edit the spawning within regular gaming option and not have to use admin commands. The other option to add n numbers where you can choose your random start location is some additional idead. For example n=4 The game create for each n a starting location (maybe with and minimum distance to all) and the player can use at first start only (or usable only firt x minutes etc.). This option would be fine for group pvp. Each team picks their number etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gazz Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 It should be spawnpoints.xml, just like for Navezgane. One of the Big Deal features is that once the world is generated it works exactly as Navezgane. You have the one game mode, the generated map, and an adjustable number of other players that can join. No more separate special snowflake code bases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please make players spawn next to each other upon starting new map. It’s so crap that we start a billion miles away and have to run to each other and most of the time die few times in the process and spawn even further away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
