Guest Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 @faatal, will the bug with the Molotov cocktail be fixed in A20, when after the fire disappears, you can catch fire for a few seconds? And is there a chance that in the future ( maybe in 100 years ) a metro or something similar will appear in random generation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aero Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Some of it must be asked and answered before, so sorry if I'm a repeat... but here it goes... Since RWG is changing so much as well as POI's (different ones and the placement), maybe most of these questions are solved because of that. Been playing a new world again a few weeks ago and for a while now I'm almost only getting tier 5 quests, which is getting very (very) repetitive (especially since these are the same from previous alpha's). I have (really) a lot of shamway and shotgun factories and only the smallest of the skyscraper. - Will there be more tier 5 quest buildings? - Will there be a better distribution of all of the different tier 5 buildings? (so not like now, having 5 shamway factories, but not other tier 5 buildings) - Can the Shamway factory get better (end) loot? What I mean is, when I get a new quest from the trader, it's hard to choose for the Shamway factory, when I also get the Shotgun one. I like them both a lot, but the time it takes to complete the quest, it's hard to choose the Shamway one because of the lack of good loot. - And last one, can the quest picking be changed at the trader? Now when you reach a certain level, you only get tier 5 quests, but I'm missing out on some fun lower tier quests or I can't repeat the fun ones. Since I'm higher in level, the zombies in those building will be harder also. Maybe let the player select which tier level they want a quest from? (when you have opened up that tier from leveling up ofc) Thanks for reading and maybe answering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blake_ Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 14 hours ago, faatal said: I think I fixed that months ago. Do you mean that time when you made a pass at the molotovs and made them better and even reduced the case of self-immolating situations? Yeah. Well if you mean that (and we should have that in a19) then you didn't fix this particular issue, which is actually very simple as it might have to do with particle generation. Code seems to be right, but fire effects finish a bit BEFORE the actual end of the burning event and you can (no matter admin or client) catch fire in a seemingly fire-free area right after you see the flames disappear (it can be subtle, but it happens). It might also have to do with the Particle video option, as it happens to me at 5% and 25% particles. Particles should be always visible in all the area, but maybe with a quality downgrade for lower video options (to allow for fire detection), not a full vanish. Also, molotovs might need an even smaller "animation collider", to account for some very common cases of half-block throwings. Actually, they shouldn't result in self-immolating accidents both for gameplay purposes and realistic purposes ever (I don't believe you as a human being would crash a burning bottle in the corner of a tiny window while throwing it, ever). So the actual throwing immolating accident should only happen in the center cross, ignoring the animation, allowing for throwings in any place with holes, even arrowslits. We would be very thankful if you check this out for us pyromaniac psicos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam the Waster Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 @faatal So how will the sewers work? will they be across the city? are they a POI will they span in citys or across the map?

Pritch Posted August 30, 2021 Share Posted August 30, 2021 After 19 Alphas my only criticism is with combat and zombie pathing. Hand-to-hand combat is unbearable especially at low levels: zombies don't flinch properly (if at all), hit box at point blank doesn't make sense, and animations make game play non-intuitive. Zombies should always respond to receiving a hit. Sometimes this is a knock back, knockdown, or decapitation; sometimes this is a flinch. A flinch should be a random interruption duration between a split second (where zombies will attack before you can swing again) and a slightly longer duration (allowing you a second swing before it recovers). Flinches need animations. Flinches are not as effective as knock backs but represent minimal effect from receiving blows. This feedback mechanism should be happening with each hit--melee or ranged. Zombie pathing around obstacles is not the problem. The pathing problem is related to the compass' orientation between the user and the zombie. If you aim N, S, E, or W the zombie will run straight at you (good). However, if you aim NE, NW, SE, or SW the zombie will zig-zag block to block rather than run directly at you (bad). This is highly unrealistic and makes ranged combat unbearable. A zombie is dumb and should be running straight at you and not zig-zag just because you are shooting in a NE, NW, SE, or SW direction. Other changes are looking great. Keep up the good work TFP. ❤️❤️❤️ Pritch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have massive fps drops in my base at around 23 o clock. It drops from 50fps to 20. After midnight it goes back to normal.

I'm pretty sure the sewers are just part of the POI, so only certain POIs would have them.
