Originally posted by The Militant Penguin Front: We need an option to limit trader quest to X per day or some such. I have a server and one player spams quest like it's going out of style. Because of this he has literally thousands of kills more than anyone else and is driving up the game stage way too fast for my other players.

It's great that he can play so well but we need an option to limit the number of quest per day to balance that game for all players.

Gamestage is done on a user by user basis, Joe's gamestage wont affect Eddy unless the two are within 50-80 meters of one another, even if they're in a party.

Now, if he's part of your party and you're all fighting together in the same horde base, it'd be a problem; But from how you described it, he's just a random player on the server doing his own thing off on his own; And if that's correct, as I said above, his gamestage wont affect the... Read more

Server has been updated to A21.1 B16 experimental.

A21.1 b16 EXP

Hello Survivors!
While testing we were able to unearth and fix a few more issues.
Here is what changed since b15:

Changes :

• Trader POIs are now excluded from the chunk reset system. This avoids issues with resetting player-rented vending machines
  
• Increased the block range of spears

Fixes:

• Error while saving player file in some disconnect scenarios
  
• Argument Exception from hitting object with vehicle
  
• NRE with GameManager+ freezes zombies and other entities on dedicated server

For violation of forum rules of course. A notification was given to offending parties. It should also be noted that discussing moderation actions is a violation as well. Might take a few to familiarize yourself with ... Read more

Originally posted by Kara: wow, can't be a bug or anything. Let's just insult the OP instead...

I mean, the OP basically described exactly what would happen if you performed those actions and did not watch your health.

He didn't describe a bug. He described ignorance of an existing game mechanic. It isn't like he just suddenly died out of nowhere. He was busy repairing his base. Performing an action repetitively that would decrease his health in each occurrence of the action.

If he wants to provide evidence to the contrary, then maybe it could be presented as a bug. Then we would need definitive information like a log and video of reproducing the event. He hasn't been back since posting though, so we have no fur... Read more

Originally posted by Mithrandir: As much as it's normal to get hurt in this situation, I do think we should have a better UI feedback on each hp loss doing that. It's too easy to miss it and die without even being aware of what's going on.

You get an audial warning on each "attack" when your arm is sprained.
A normal attack is 1hp per use. A power attack/repair is 4hp per use.

You do get both visual UI and audio feedback when you hit 25% hp.

The only reason the OP died, is because they weren't paying any attention to their character.

The numbers on the left are you 'digesting' your food/water; Your actual hunger/thirst bars are at the bottom below the hotbar- The green and blue bar being hunger and thirst respectively. You can also view the actual value in the character menu stats screen.

Moving to General Discussions because this is a matter of opinion rather than an objective knowledge base kind of question.

You get it by opting into the unstable experimental build.

Originally posted by Freak: I think it should adhere to the settings I have too but chances are since it's the first thing you see the settings haven't loaded in yet. Not sure.

Ark does this with the menu music. It doesn't work. You still get blasted with a few seconds of music before the settings get loaded.

Party gamestage multiplies a little oddly, +1 player is actually the biggest leap in difficulty, and it trails off after that.

They get sorted from highest to lowest, then multiplied by the starting weight with the weight being modified down with each additional player.

Here's the blurb from the gamestages xml:

Originally posted by Gamestages.xml: This is how the game stage (GS) of a PARTY is calculated:

The GS of all players in the party are calculated.
The players are sorted by GS.
The highest GS number is multiplied by "startingWeight".
This then loops down the list and "startingWeight" is multiplied by "diminishingReturns" every time.
The final result is then converted to an INT that rounds down.

Example:
Players with GS 204, 30, 60, 91, 5, 1, 2, 80
startingWeight= 1, diminishingReturns=0.5 (defined in this xml file below)

So we get
204 * 1.0000...

Wiki is outdated and not up to date with A21. In A21, you no longer unlock crafting recipes with skill points; Instead, it has all crafting skills behind reading magazines you loot or buy; The one you're looking for specifically is Forging Ahead iirc, which you need to read 30 of to unlock the mixer, and you only have 29... so get one more and you're done.
