chaosterone Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 My home is appropriately decorated as a Pre-Apocalypse domicile. So you still have stacks of emergency supplies left from Y2K with the windows blacked out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazz Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 I always thought the Bandit were not in because of the accuracy issues, or the fact that Bandits are dead accurate and will murder you the second you turn a corner. I hope the new buff system allows for a accuracy balance and can be applied to the Bandits later. It very much does. An item/skill/buff can apply an "effect". Since NPC or zombies can (theoretically) have skills, some can be bad shots. Or it can be a random buff applied on spawning. Not sure which exact way 1.0 of that will be working...

bayaholic Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 Thanks for the video MM. Nice progress on certain things. However, what's the story on (zombie) AI and/or bandits? It's awefully quiet on that front... The bandits are using the new stealth system. They are sneaking into a POI near you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VikingGerbil Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 Generator/Battery/Solar panel question please. Question please. Just got around to placing a second generator on a 4x4x4 column on the outside perimeter of my topside base to power 2x shotgun turrets facing down two axis of said perimeter. I go back on to the roof of my bunker and there is no noise coming from my first generator (had to be on the roof, fumes an all). So first question is: does noise/sound effect only come from last genie placed. Also would have used a battery bank but have never found a schematic. Have bought one from a not previously visited Trader which I've already used as an inline backup if the topside genie gets fragged, so do schematics exist? Also solar cells/panels which would have been great to recharge a battery bank during the day to run during the night (on a timer). Never found/seen any of them in the game either (saw one on a fellas YouTube demo). DO they exist as finds or should I just keep looking for more more (not visited) trader's and up the Secret Stash perk to the max? I thought these things were all in for A16 but perhaps they are not fully implemented and are to be completed in A17? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beerfly Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 You are doing right, maybe you haven`t leveled enough to be able to get the solar bank/sells from traders. Battery bank schematic is midgame stuff and can be found in traders. Sound of the engines ..lets see what the guys will say, I have two and they are around 50 blocks away, so sound is good.

Crater Creator Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 It very much does. An item/skill/buff can apply an "effect".

I'm looking forward to the potential to enhance recipes. For instance, imagine adding honey to a lot of different foods for a, er, not wellness boost without having to script up separate items for "red tea with honey", "goldenrod tea with honey", "cornbread with honey", etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KronosKronight Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 Upgrading to the newer verion of Unity... has this helped with performance issues such as memory leaks and reduced ammount of RAM the game uses in general ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menace312 Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 Upgrading to the newer verion of Unity... has this helped with performance issues such as memory leaks and reduced ammount of RAM the game uses in general ? I don't believe that the memory leaks caused by to many players on server (more that 8), has anything to do with the Unity engine... In terms of ram usage, it's the same... We need better game optimizations, which will of cause not happen until we are well into beta... Of cause I don't know this for sure... But it really does not make sense to optimize an alpha product... Just saying... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lobison444 Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 Will the new bike be made by different pieces or will it be a single entity? Will you have a backpack? there will be difference in velosity? -my little brother asked me if it is necessary that in the post apocalypse everything has rusty spikes, and I told him that yes obviously Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will you have a backpack? there will be difference in velosity? -my little brother asked me if it is necessary that in the post apocalypse everything has rusty spikes, and I told him that yes obviously I believe it was said that the new hog will be the speed of the current minibike at top limit and the minibike speed will be reduced to suit so it feels like progress when you get the hog. And as for bike parts... i'm not entirely sure but it was touted to have 'Mods' or 'attachments' but yh not sure it was pretty vague as its still being worked on no doubt.

Anabella Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 Thanks. I can finally get my real point across. From the talk of peeing on electric fences that I saw some what earlier in the thread I would say that last part of it of it is VERY correct.

Guppycur Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 The plan might change, but the plan is to just plop it down after crafting it. So instead of a chassis you will have a full bike. This saves slots used now for "parts" and opens that data up for "mods". It's all pending the new legendary gun system, which is influx so its all an educated guess right now. Gun mod on bike or am I being optimistic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guppycur Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 The Guppy Effect will be a buff from a disgruntled Duke's army soldier where they become passive aggressive about the state of the Dukes army, its leadership, etc. You will get a mission called "Double Agent" where you have to find the spy and take care of him and his acolytes. I like it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
