BigChef 55 Posted August 24, 2013 I thought of this the other night on my drive home from work while I was checking out the moon over Lake Superior and wondered if any of the true time servers follow the actual moon phases??? Is it even possible? LOL or do they already do so and i haven't noticed? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IkaikaKekai 1957 Posted August 24, 2013 They did at one point, but due to bitching it's been changed to full moon nights in an effort to bring night cycles back to servers instead of 24/7 day. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigChef 55 Posted August 24, 2013 Too bad, all full moons while not as bad as 24/7 daylight, is still...ugh, too much typing today, gonna go play. Thanks for the reply. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fraggle (DayZ) 15720 Posted August 24, 2013 (edited) In Arma (and initially DayZ) the gameworld has a complete and authentic lunar-cycle. You can even use the stars to navigate if you know how in the same way you can use your watch and shadows in game to find north in the daytime. I hope the SA really fixes nightime gameplay. I can't navigate using the stars but I like knowing I could if I wanted to. Edited August 24, 2013 by Fraggle 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigChef 55 Posted August 24, 2013 I'm with you Fraggle! Navigating with stars would be very cool indeed, I would need to familiarize myself with the Cherarus night sky, however i believe Ursis Minor (North Star) should be veiwable from there and that's all I need for starters.

pegruder 1 Posted October 18, 2013 Hate to bring this back but it looked like I had a moon cycle in 1.8, and now its back to just a full moon. Is there any editing that will allow a lunar cycle again? It also seems dawn/dusk cycles are off since 1.8.0.3. It used to be right on the money, now its off by about 2 hours for me.

Stop bumping necro'd threads. Seriously. I'm 100% super ultra serious. This is just getting annoying.Edit: Why didn't you just make a new thread?

bibbish 49 Posted October 18, 2013 Well the amount of times people say 'you should have searched, there is already a thread on this' is probably the reason he replied to this old thread... and so what? The thread is so old I didn't even know it existed and it turned out to be fairly interesting. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
