Tyron Posted Tuesday at 07:43 PM Report Posted Tuesday at 07:43 PM Dear Extraordinary Survivalists v1.22.0-rc.5, an unstable release, can now be downloaded through the account manager. We're working nearly non-stop since the TOPS re-launch in order to get the game running smoothly. The work continues with this release... Screenshot by TylerSantaFe, shared on discord #screenshots Game updates Tweak: Performance: Minor improvements to server TPS on large multiplayer servers (TOPS) Tweak: Performance: Game freezing when many blocks started falling Tweak: For Server owners: A quick little solution to tell apart your server staff - "/player [playername] privilege grant staffentitlement" will give you a cyan colored [Staff] prefix Tweak: Simple AFK kick timer for game servers (enable via /sc afkkickseconds and /sc afkwarnseconds) Tweak: Added /sc timeoutkickseconds Tweak: Bear seeking ranges reduced. Bear attack ranges are now shorter and different for different sizes of bear Tweak: Reduced meat and bone drops for some fish (many of the smaller fish that previously yielded a bone will now yield none) Tweak: Dough stink bait is now a separate bait type from other meat-based stink baits. Output of stink bait cooking recipe reduced, and red meat and poultry will produce more stink bait than dough or other meats. Tweak: Theater arm clothing fully implemented. Tweak: Shelf displayable attributes added/improved for ceramic bowls, pots, crocks, ingot molds, oil lamps, nails and strips, poultices, and bandages, including stacking where appropriate. Also added shelf displayable attributes for crucibles, flower pots, and jugs, even though they do not fit on the current cabinet shelving Tweak: The server /stats commands now no longer includes connecting players in the current player count Fixed: Should fix rare Support beam errors causing player disconnection; and fixes Support Beams sometimes placing incorrectly/invisibly or with ? textures [existing beams with ? textures can be removed using the Crowbar tool] Fixed: Logged errors when a Worm Grunter stick reaches zero durability Fixed: Error log spam from hidden clothing parts when wearing armor Fixed: Crash when trading and buy and sell amount are equal: would cause no money to be transferred Fixed: Game crash caused by gnats Fixed: Game crash caused by ground storage Fixed: Prevent server crash on exception in BehaviorBodyTemperature and log additional information Fixed: Stones thrown straight up getting stuck mid-air Fixed: Bowl water splash particles not colored correctly Fixed: Ambient slider in settings not working when settings are not expanded Fixed: Seraph 'grin' face and 'kind' face swapped Fixed: Berry bushes will properly randomize their appearance Fixed: Dropped items forever rotating even when colliding with the ground Fixed: Some small fish would appear to leave behind bones when ground processed, but when picked up no bone would appear in inventory Fixed: Iron blooms did not always have enough metal voxels to make a full ingot Fixed: Prevent exploit where 2 small water wheels can be placed overlapping in the same stream Fixed: Animals still able to multiply with dead males nearby Fixed: Psychedelic mushrooms would not properly get you high when used in a meal Fixed: Various berry bush fixes Berry bushes would not properly save and load the amount of time it took to transition to the next stage of growth Wild berry bushes would incorrectly pretend to be young when spawned Grown berry bushes would not have a young stage Young berry bushes would not use the proper graphics Thin skinned and thick skinned berry bush traits were accidentally swapped Berry bushes would not properly pause their growth when below or above the pausing growth temperatures Fixed: Farmland would not recover while growing, instead recovering when the crop was ripe Fixed: Rollers place inconsistently based on player's orientation Fixed: The clayforming gui still said bowls could be made into lamps, and had no descriptions for tiles or lamp bodies.

Something tells me there will be lots of shenanigans in multiplayer this update... 17 minutes ago, Tyron said: Fixed: Iron blooms did not always have enough metal voxels to make a full ingot Nice! No more needing to use creative or rely on the helve hammer to fix the duds! 7
john_p Posted Tuesday at 08:08 PM Report Posted Tuesday at 08:08 PM Is there supposed to be a chance of failing to harvest pine resin, kind of like mushrooms? It's a really low chance, and doesn't bother me.
Calmest_of_lakes Posted Tuesday at 09:29 PM Report Posted Tuesday at 09:29 PM I'm so glad farming is basically back to normal now. thank you 3

The VS devs work fast. 2 hours ago, Tyron said: Fixed: Farmland would not recover while growing, instead recovering when the crop was ripe I know this was getting discussed here a fair bit the other day; whether it was a bug or an intended feature of farmland. Glad to see that cleared up so folks can stop worrying about their crops. Pretty much everything here feels like bugsmashing & tweaks. Feels like we're nearing the finish line!

I have never had crops take so long to grow. My Flax was 8/9 and 29% growth speed.

My Flax was 8/9 and 29% growth speed. One of the intentional changes in this update did increase crop nutrient consumption, which will effectively reduce growth speed. So you can now expect them to grow slower than in 1.21 still, although not quite as slowly as in the previous 1.22 RCs. 3
EnbyKaiju Posted Tuesday at 11:01 PM Report Posted Tuesday at 11:01 PM I just jumped into creative and started stacking bowls & empty oil lamps on shelves. My inner interior decorator is jumping with joy, haha It's going to be so nice making a full-one pottery workshop with shelves for works in progress, and ones to take later, and not just have them neatly stacked up & feeling a lot less static. 10/10 inclusion that demonstrates how small changes can add up to a lot. 2

I'll take the drop in melee damage (years of Zomboid have taught me the value of not getting hit by the enemy), for those tasty foraging bonuses. The Blackguard & Tailor are going to be super-necessary in multiplayer worlds, especially with the tougher enemies and so many new clothes to make, but solo feels like the realm of the outcast

That's typically the combo my friend and I roll with, and we can pretty easily dominate most any threat that comes after us. The worst enemy we tend to face is ourselves(of which there are a few stories in the funny story thread). 2 1

It's all very personal to your play style and vibe, and there's no looking down on folks who play commoner. I'm a very "be gay, do crimes" kinda creature, so Malefactor is my vibe. But I love hearing stories about how others approach the game, the stories they build within it, and how their choices face up to what the game throws at you. I should go read those stories in the funny thread, I could do with some giggles. 1 1

If you mean the fix to the number of growth stages when calculating growth times and nutrient consumption being one higher than it should be, then that seems to have been effectively reverted now by adjusting the base nutrient consumption and growth time defined for individual crops to 1 - 1 / growthStages of the 1.21 values. 4
Hmuda Posted yesterday at 10:17 AM Report Posted yesterday at 10:17 AM Thanks for updating the flatpak version, using the terminal dealt with it nicely.

Probably for the best, although the longer growth times weren't all bad. I was starting to get used to the idea of fewer harvests. I hope they apply some rounding to these new numbers though. Flax consuming 44.4 K just looks funny.
