I'm not trying to be whiny, i know this game is in alpha but isn't this point in the dev cycle the time for these discussions? also there need to be more junk type items added to the game for immersion's sake. in fallout 4 for example, you don't just find scrap plastic, you...Read more
Water is still stored in the chunks we already have. It will just not be as blocks.
Vehicle tinting and mods have already been worked on and should be in a20. Three of the mods need code support, but it is not major work.
Not sure, but currently water blocks just convert to the new water data format.

Thus why there's a loot timer.
that kinda makes sense. but if that is the route the devs wanna take then they need to find an immersive way to convey that fact. not everyone will assume that.
No time for playing in the dirt for a20.

Plus people already more or less despise other debuffs, I can't imagine one for not sleeping enough would go over well.

A20 NEWS!!!!!!!
Started on the water overhaul this week. I'm working on the water chunk data and another programmer will be doing simulation/mesh changes.
My plan is water will not be a block, but additional chunk data, which is a pretty big change. It makes more sense, since any block could have water in it while still being whatever block it is.
Originally posted by seven: You put points in Archery under the Agility skill.To elaborate, crafting quality is tied to the skill that bolsters the items effects. EG: to raise bow and crossbow crafting quality, you raise the archery skill in agility. Or for clubs you raise the club skill in strength. Or for tools like the pickaxe you raise the miner 69er skill in strength, and so on.

I love new Unity versions, but as we are getting into a gold mindset and have been talking to Unity, we plan on using LTS releases. A20 should be on 2019.4 LTS and next year hopefully move to the 2020 LTS for A21, so would be able to get those benefits.
Not likely. Vehicle speed is limited by chunk loading speed. Last week I make an improvement to chunk deco spawning speed, but a lot more would have to be done to the total speed.
No. The current one may get a few tweaks and will probably go stable within a month.
A lot of team time is now going into A20.
It would be a performance issue in the current way it works. We need a corpse manager that deletes oldest/farthest corpses, in addition to the current timer.
Many sounds originate from the player. Hopefully that gets improved someday.

Is the chorizo pork or beef? i've wanted to try it but i'm allergic if it's pork, i normally get a large #1 with cheese and extra pickles
