Unturned Dev Tracker

I'm glad you figured it out. :)

I'm not sure what you've tried. Can you clarify what you've actually done / tried doing?

To place a volume, the steps are:

• Go to the Volumes tab --> select Deadzone volume --> press [E] to place a volume

To change the visibility of a volume, the steps are:

• Go to the Volumes tab --> click the visibility button to the left of the corresponding volume's button

Did you add a Deadzone Volume from the Volumes menu?

The survey is now closed – thank you to everyone who participated! https://blog.smartlydressedgames.com/2024/02/12/unturned-2024-survey-results/

For Unity games on PC, you would be able to append the Unity-specific options to the launch executable's path. (Or through Steam, you'd add it to the Launch Options through the app.) https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/PlayerCommandLineArguments.html

For Unturned on PC and console platforms, you can configure resolution in-game. A few settings that can't be set from in-game can be set from the ...\Steam\steamapps\common\Unturned\Preferences.json file. There is no official Android version of the gam...

Unturned is not officially available on mobile. It's likely that nobody on the subreddit will be able to help you with your problem.

A6 Polaris is by the same developers.

A good starting point would be to visit the official resource for Unturned modding documentation. The most relevant article would be the one on the game data properties for Blueprints, but if you're brand new to modding you'll likely want to familiarize yourself with other concepts as well (like creating an item).

I recommend referencing any of the vanilla game data files that have blueprints, which can be found along the ...\Steam\steamapps\common\Unturned\Bundles\Items file path.

The gist of what you're wanting to do is fairly simple. Note that you can't add new crafting recipes without having them be part of an item's game data. The (very summarized) steps would generally look like this:

1. Create a new item. It doesn't nee...

That sounded like there must be something wrong to me, so I double-checked today. My wife has a low-spec MacBook Air from ~2016 that I previously used for testing Unturned's Mac compatibility, before getting the newer M1 Mac for M1 compatibility testing. On that MacBook Air I was able to walk around one of the Buak towns facing the center mountain (most performance-intensive viewpoint) at around 20 fps low settings. Obviously 20 fps isn't ideal, but Buak is the most graphically-demanding map in the game by a long shot, and that's even having made optimizations to the base game specifically targeting the map. (other maps run much better on that laptop)

My gut expectation is that nowadays if anything runs at 1 fps there's probably something wrong. What platform are you on? Do you have any additional launch options specified in the Unturned properties window in Steam?

Glad to hear you're enjoying it! One note regarding tools like playit.gg: relatively recently, support for Steam's Fake IP and Server Codes joining have added an equivalent feature built-in. That is to say, you can join by Server Code or Fake IP without port forwarding and without tunneling software.

I agree that would be useful. Certainly comes in handy in e.g. Minecraft or Valheim. Maybe can be included in a future similar poll/survey. Though I think it would be hard to coordinate everyone to agree to sleep in a PvP server.

Are you playing at higher settings though? I've kept an old laptop around for testing and generally the framerate has improved over the years on my end.

I may as well at least add the option for auto-updating server mods. The code is mostly already there and it's been requested a few times recently. When that feature was first added it wasn't *as* important for the server mods to be completely in sync, but now the game is pretty strict about asset mismatch to block some cheats.

Hmm not out of the question. I'd been thinking mostly of controller navigation in the UI, and perhaps updating to Unity's new input system. Considering how tightly coupled with Steam Unturned is already there wouldn't be much downside to using Steam Input directly...

To expand on this: The request for easier server hosting would technically be implemented as "listen server hosting". In that mode your client would run as both the client and server simultaneously and your friends could join without the separate dedicated server software.

That's how multiplayer worked in 2.0. There is a host player in the world and everyone joins them. This approach isn't without downsides, however, and so dedicated server support was one of the absolute top priorities with 3.0. I over-corrected though and didn't factor in listen server hosting as being an important feature.

Singleplayer sort of runs as a listen server. It's running both the client and server code simultaneously. Unfortunately, it's not as easy as just enabling joining singleplayer to make listen server hosting work at this point. Lots of code the has been written with only dedicated servers and singleplayer in mind, and would function unexpectedly on listen servers.

It wou...

1. Yes – but you'll have to update the Workshop submission every time you update your map locally.
2. Save your map, go to the main menu, go to "Single-player", and you can load up your map from there. There are some(?) third-party tools that allow for loading into your map while still within the level editor, but these tools are not officially supported.

If you have a few minutes, I’d appreciate your input on this survey! The goal is to collect feedback on what the Unturned community is most interested in seeing in 2024: https://forms.gle/Fv4guTqb5ApacQbM9

I will post it in-game as well a little bit later. The reason for waiting is to get any comments/criticisms on the survey itself before posting to a wider audience.
