Some random guy

Hi First of all, thanks DomiStyle for this tool. Being pretty new to it I'm sure these have been asked and answered before and if that is the case I apologise. 1. Under the Bans tab, can we have / can I see the name of the player that has been banned as one of the columns? 2. Is there a way to share the databases, specifically players and comments, so I could have several admins with a common player database and player comments section. That share could be as simple as sticking the databases in a dropbox folder. 3. On the 'All' tab for console, chat and logs; can I keep the same text colours used under the chat tab? At the moment all text under ALL is black and I can see which is Side and which is console text etc. 4. As a future thing; on the Players screen, can the co-ords of the player at the refresh be included when the player is in-game. Thanks!

He was kitted up but had no gun. I asked him to drop his backpack (the small orange one) and he could then go. He tried to delay, I asked again and he made a run for it so I shot him. The sad thing was that if he had just complied he would have left with some much since his pockets were full.

Cheers all Would be great if you could use the pen to write the blood type (or indeed a different blood type ;) ) on the bag with a pen!

Hi survivors - Just a couple of quick questions... 1. Blood type. I found a blood testing kit and I'm O+. Will I always be O+ or just until I die and respawn, when I'll need to test again? 2. How rare are blood testing kits? I found one on the second day of Alpha but haven't seen any since? Are they rare or am I just being unlucky and later to the loot?

What you've described is a complete misunderstanding of what alpha testing of software is. The whole point of any testing is to allow people to look at specific parts or scenarios and feedback on them. It is completely possible to have multiple servers running different combinations of the day night cycle during this stage and then having a proper cycle once we've moved to a beta build. It doesn't remove anything from anyone's experience as you have different, selectable options and actually gives back more data since you can calculate what percentages of the player base are choosing what types of servers and for how long they play rather than some player like yourself sticking their finger in the air and declaring "this many people don't want it". As for your comment about head torches, if I want to try head torches do I currently need to server hop to find a night server the same as I do if I want to play in the day so your own point is redundant. Asking for these to be selectable makes total sense at this stage.

I love this place. You say something which is anything other than "SA IS THE GREATEST!!!!" and you're met with replies of "Its an alpha noob!!" and then you make a constructive post asking for something sensible and it's met with "The games supposed to be dark / hard / about survival / about PVP noob!!" I too would like a daytime server because I'd like to experience the game during the day at a time which is suitable to me; where do things spawn? what are the textures like? the views? the draw distance? How do I move? look? behave? How does my own PC cope with the different settings available etc. In the same breath, I want to all of that during the night time too. Since this is an alpha we should have the option to cherry pick which one we're using before the game moves on and becomes a game which includes the daytime cycling (which is something I like about the game). You can apply the same logic to the weather patterns. So far I've only seen sunshine or dark. Lots of people have spoken about the rain and how good it looks so why can't I just search out a daytime rainy server to experience it? After all, an alpha is where we're looking to experience and then feedback the things we find and NOT the final game which is a combination of all of these elements.
