we have new damage values for all the loot that spawns. i think its a small, but one of the best changes with 1.19. nomore massive amounts of pristine items in an apocalyptic world. so - thank you! in the old cfgspawnabletypes file we had a general line for damage values just on the top of that file: <damage min="0.3" max="0.7" /> <- i ASSUME (theres no documentary i know about) 0.0 would be ruined, 0.1 badly damaged, 1.0 would be pristine. maybe? at which number the damage state changes from damaged to badly damaged etc.? in the NEW config file for 1.19 theres nomore a general damage line on top, but under many single items this damagevalues will be used now, example: <type name="NVGoggles"> <damage min="0.01" max="0.32" /> <- so those will only spawn closed to ruined? do i got that right? </type> can i still use the "general damage value" on top of the file, using it for all items that are in the cfgspawnabletypes.xml or do i have to edit every single item on its own? that would be aLOT of copy and paste, while im fine to use random damage values for all files.

How the petrol stations have an unlimited supply of fuel
etwas replied to lewtaedoung06's topic in General Discussion
disagree with what? that there are bigger concerns with the game? i dont disagree with that. im taken offense cos this topic gets derailed with vehicle issues. if that is the counter argument, we can close the feedback tracker and concentrate on vehicle updates only. if there was a thread 2 months ago about inertia or needed changes to the loot economy (random damage values), the replies would probably be the same like in this thread. i dunno how i would do that. im just saying that there is an endless resource of gasoline and water in a survival GAME and it just doesnt feel right to me. thats it. and i really dont care much if this is gonna be changed at some point or doesnt, but if they find a better way with fuel and water sources, im fine with it. any extra challenge in the game i appreciate. as i said, with the medical attention mod gasstation and waterwells can be configured by server owners; giving them a % chance to give fuel/water only or disable em at all. some servers that run this mod might even disable all wells outside the spawnarea. -
the transitbus is still in the server files, but not added back to the vanilla game yet. im positive we see its comeback at some point and ofc consoles will get those too then. only mods on pc give the bus, like the expansion mod for example.

etwas replied to lewtaedoung06's topic in General Discussion
noone will stop u from commenting whatever u like, i just dont see the value of your first comment - specially now with your 2nd comment: i thought this is just a video game!? come on! please, its not about agreeing with anything. just dont derail the topic with the stupid vehicles, just because u have no interest in this thngs and have other concerns with the games. -

etwas replied to lewtaedoung06's topic in General Discussion
its just the usual ignorance and sarcasm i guess. if u dont like the topic, just dont comment on it. geez. u guys make more out of this topic than OP and me together. just because this is not the 894th discussion about vehicles, doesnt mean people cant suggest other things for the game. -
How the petrol stations have an unlimited supply of fuel
etwas replied to lewtaedoung06's topic in General Discussion
sure... those items respawn, but not in front of u where u picked them up. and its limited just by the amount it spawns. gasoline is a guaranteed endless resource, water from wells is. oh yes, nothing game breaking or high priority dev issue.... just a suggestion from someone i commented on. ? -

etwas replied to lewtaedoung06's topic in General Discussion
no, u cant say that. cos everything u mentioned is actually limited (apart from water from the wells), while the gasstations have an unlimited source of fuel. so yea, i would like to see some limits there too. the medical attention mod allows you for example to completly disable wells and gasstations or make them just randomly give fuel/water (simple to configure with a percent change per well/gasstation). -
that sucks 😞 it would be nice if the devs add something to remember your friend. i know they did this in the past and not only once - adding a cross to locations where the person last logged out.
-
i think theres a few locations now on deerisle that seem impossible, specially in the arctic crypt... i wouldnt bother goin there at the moment. other maps have issues too, like namalsk. cant enter certain objects, getting off certain ladders will result in falling to death etc.. hopefully a hotfix for movement will fix it by BI and no map terrain updates are needed.
-
the path is correct. it seems your files didnt get updated? u could download the dayz server files from steam. they are always up to date.
-
BI, this does NOT inspire confidence
etwas replied to THEGordonFreeman's topic in General Discussion
they are server side and always have been in dayz sa. im surprised u dont know that (looking at your "awesome vehicle" thread). -
u collected stuff for your wife in a game for 5 months when she doesnt even own it?
-
im really hoping for an answer before this hits stable on the 18th of october.
-
nevermind. i realized u talking bout sumraks stream few days ago. ofc some ppl make some clips out of it and call it a trailer for 1.19 on yt.
-
where can i watch it?
-
so its faster to heal a broken leg than filling up a barrel in dayz. hmmm
-
<active>0</active> did u set it to zero in the events.xml under "<event name="StaticPoliceCar">"? that should stop spawning them in. try vanilla missionfiles and only edit that part.
-
yea i unfortunatelyi had to disable them too as they spawned in dozens in the center of a dynamic gasstrike.... . i added them to the cfgignorelist.xml file: <ignore> <type name="Grenade_ChemGas"></type> </ignore>
-
oh dear. thats some lame behaviour. he probably put some effort into eden and it had some great potential. sad to throw it in the trash like that.
-
well thank you both. zarges statement sounds reasonable.
-
wow dude! how ignorant u gotta be? this is a discussion forum of a game we all love. not twitter or facebook where people throw random brainfarts at each other. u came up with some statement and u dont want to back it up. whats the purpose?
-
so it was just in your head then or what? why wouldnt u give a source. might stop all the speculation. or dont reply at all.

Cooking pot not attaching to stone fireplace?
etwas replied to CommMolander's question in Troubleshooting
yea you're right - i just looked it up and i actually reported it myself on their feedback tracker last december hahaha never even got assigned by Geez. -

etwas replied to CommMolander's question in Troubleshooting
interesting. im on pc and i always thought this is a conflict with whatever mod. im surprised noone ever reported this, as i remember this bug since nearly a year.... -
while i agree that in general the CLE is terrible configured, i dunno the fuss about the crashsites and why u are confused about my personal opinion on it. i made some suggestions to the CLE on their feedback tracker, but that was a pointless attempt as it never even got assigned by Geez. i can still quote Sumrak from like a year ago with "we dont have the time and manpower to go over the CLE". which i really dont understand, while they seem to invest a lot of time on other nonsense.
