Unturned Dev Tracker

Is there an issue you're having with following SDG's (and by extension, the Valve Developer Community's) official documentation?

Several weeks of May were used to push out necessary/backlogged updates for Unturned. Unturned II devlogs are released when we feel there's enough to discuss or push out an update for.

For resources regarding information like this, it's usually posted on the official roadmap, or in the latest U3 patch note or U4 devlog (whichever one is more relevant at the time).

To clarify slightly: steering is also bound to arrow keys, so that you can fly in third-person where using a mouse isn't an option.

This is super false -- anybody can host their own server. Now, if your ISP is blocking ports and they make it difficult for you to port forward, that's a different issue entirely.

Just to bounce off this comment -- you basically answered your question of "what takes that long" yourself. The last couple weeks were used to provide necessary updates to U3 (alongside some other stuff that has been planned/requested but backlogged for a while).

If Steam can detect the input device (in this case, your Thrustmaster) then it should work but you'd obviously have to map controls yourself through Big Picture Mode. If Steam doesn't recognize the device, or it recognizes the device but not the inputs, then you'll likely have to use an emulator so Steam recognizes the inputs.

U3 has had controller support since 2015. What specific issues were you having?

I think there's a misunderstanding of what's being discussed in the comment chain. A "private game" doesn't mean anything besides that it's private, such as with a password or a whitelist. It's not the opposite of a dedicated server, nor has anything to do with whether or not you port forward. Anyone can make a private server.

It's not the opposite of a dedicated server, which could more accurately be described as a listen server. But when people think of games like Don't Starve, Garry's Mod, and Terraria, those are actually using Steamwork servers.

When Turkey-er mentioned P2P, they're probably referring to peer-to-peer (not pay-to-play, which I think you may have interpreted it as).

Are you sure you've downloaded and installed those maps?

I believe we've said there'd be a playable beta/demo version of the game by 2019 (which has happened), and more-or-less jokingly said that the game would most definitely be publicly available to everyone before 2025.

We've never put out an actual release date, but an actual release date will be available when it makes sense to have one. It doesn't make sense to have one right now.

You might be.

All boxes that require keys were removed from playtime drops several years ago.

Doesn't look like a heat press was used, unless maybe it was done straight-on the shirt and is just super faded now. Is this just fabric paint?

👌 regardless.

There are, which is why I didn't make a comment about plugins.

My prior understanding was that Hykscraft offers pre-compiled versions of a lot of the plugins linked on the official RocketMod subreddit, and provides (will provide?) services to future plugin developers.

I don't have anything to say regarding that, so I didn't. :X

RocketMod should only be acquired from the patched version included with the game's base installation. Using older versions (i.e., versions from archives / third-party websites) won't work, especially for Linux hosters.

I'm not exactly sure what you're referring to by "upgraded objects".

Thanks for bringing this up! The reasons it's wonky at the moment:

• Field of view is horizontal, rather than vertical. For competitive games enforcing a consistent horizontal field of view between players makes sense, but for Unturned I think it makes more sense to allow a wider horizontal field of view for wide screens.
• User interface safe zones are undefined and not configurable yet, but in the future should allow all of the UI to be kept in the center area.

I'll open a card for this on the quality-of-life roadmap list, as it is fairly important.

Technically it's possible by support manual recovery - if you send me an email with a link to your Steam profile at [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]) I'll take a look!

Thanks for supporting the development, as well as for still linking the update notes! :)

On a more general note: thank you to everyone who has supported the development both interactively and financially, I hope Unturned II is worth the wait! Can't thank everyone enough, but there will definitely be 3.0 supporter benefits in 4.0 as well.

Following up on my comment from the other day: the Steam team confirmed that all the VR settings are disabled, so they're going to investigate what's going on here.
