Gazz Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 Madmole, Question about the new POIs... With all the new different versions of buildings being put out...they are very cool by the way.. What changes in game allowed for the mass diversification? Was it the new version of Unity ? Was it skills of the new designers? Time allowed ? Combination? Many new tools and functions in the editor. New block shapes and textures to solve specific problems. More manpower. I'm not directly involved in this but it does take multiple passes to get one such prefab shippable... and someone has to do the work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royal Deluxe Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 On a bike it's not completely insane. The bike is highly mobile and you wouldn't have a hand free to aim a pintle-mounted MG. Maybe for a High speed fight on a straight Highway. Can we expect this as new content ? Please imagine the use at 0:58 with a fixed version where you need to bring the vehicle in line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guppycur Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 Any inkling on the shape selector and whether or not it'll force another redo of block id's, and if so, if the new prefab editor will convert? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aldranon Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 FIXED guns, There is no way to aim. If you slow down you hit the ground in your front, if you speed up you shoot in the sky. And to hit something you need to move perfect straight. In real only planes and helicopter have fixed Weapons, and there it make sense. Moving the steering wheel a bit would aim it. Add bullet drop and firing while advancing from 500 to 200 meters would be deadly. If you starting firing closer it would still be OK for suppressing the enemy.

The Gronk Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 FIXED guns, There is no way to aim. If you slow down you hit the ground in your front, if you speed up you shoot in the sky. And to hit something you need to move perfect straight. In real only planes and helicopter have fixed Weapons, and there it make sense. You're right in that a fixed mount bullet-hose strapped to the front of a land vehicle would be pretty useless. You're also right about the mini-gun gor'ram jeep from "The 100" being pointless in a real-life combat scenario. Here's my logic for adding frikkin' mini-guns to cars in the zombie apocalypse. 1) Z's don't tend to dive for cover, making them essentially stationary targets which are far easier to hit than something with a working pre-frontal cortex. 2) It wouldn't be too much of an engineering challenge to add a small lever for the driver to fine-tune the aiming of the gun once it's pointed in roughly the right direction. It would no longer be a truly fixed-mount at this point and would probably feel like the crazy aiming system of "Time-splitters 2" (damn I loved that game). 3) I want one :-) ^timesplitters crazy aiming system. ^the fun to be had attaching frikkin' mini-guns to cars. <trigger warning - contains words ruder than bum> --edit- In practical game purposes the fine aiming can be done with a simple auto-aim script. Point the car in the general direction of a horde and press the trigger, it would still make running Z's harder to hit. --edit-- - - - Updated - - - Gubbins? Did you just say gubbins? What the heck is a gubbins?! I really want to know! Definition of gubbins 1 dialectal, British : fish parings or refuse; broadly : any bits and pieces : scraps 2 British : gadgets, gadgetry the gubbins for changing a tire all the navigational gubbins —J. L. Rhys 3 British : a foolish or futile person : simpleton you silly gubbins I was going for definition 2. I've lived on this damn island for decades now and I've never even heard of definitions 1 or 3. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FailFailWin Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 If you think about it, you are also able to fly if you ever utilise the full power of your brain. In other words: no. So wellness is being removed without replacement? I'm hoping not, because that would suck. The fact you have to care about your health is one of the things that really appealed to me when I bought the game, and it's one of the points I mention to others who enjoy a bit more authenticity in their games...

The whole Wellness/Stamina thing was wonky. How could you have 200 stamina and at the same time, 1 health left? You're at deaths door, yet can chop down 10 trees??? WTF? So, it needed a major rework or scrap the whole thing and try something new. The rewrite would have been your stamina can never be higher than your current health remaining. Looking forward to what they got. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're not far wrong... the inside bits of fowl, including turkey, are giblets. Ooooh! A slaughterhouse POI with lots of melee weapons scattered around.

I like what ValMOD did for the "chicken coop." You have a craftable item that places a birds nest. The nest becomes harvestable after a set number of days. It was a single block and fit in well with the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazywildfire Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 Why there is still no car on the feature list. Car or riot! The car isn't being added as of now anyway. They are just using it as a place holder for the Jeep. The jeep isn't completely ready yet. It most likely will be but until it is it isn't getting put on the list. But have I missed something it says wellness has been dropped. So they are not going to rework it now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There may be a slim chance that the unfinished car will be in the game files. Then perhaps it could be modded in? Also, the new physics may make it possible for modders to make vehicles. Who knows... Yes, the current wellness system is going away as far as I can work out. And good riddance I say. But of cause it will be replaced... And with a much better system too...
