rocket 16567 Posted February 5, 2014 Branch: Stable ETA: Complete Version: 0.33.114926 This build continues with small bugfixes and several engine changes. A late addition of a significant change to the server variable processing has provided us a major performance boost on the server of around 5-10 FPS. This helps with a great deal of issues and results in a much smoother game experience from players even on a smooth server. Once several more of these optimizations are made it will allow us to increase player/zombie numbers and enable loot and zombie respawning. Known Issues:- Spawns: Loot is not spawning in military tents- Spawns: Some structures in Svetlo currently do not spawn loot- Server: Servers under load can delay actions from the client- Graphics: Only 4 dynamic light sources will be rendered at one time currently- Actions: Looting a dead body may make a ghost clone copy of the inventory New:- Actions: chambering SKS round from pile, loading 10 rounds from pile- Actions: You can uncuff other players with the hacksaw- Actions: Cannot use an item (e.g. drink/eat) if it is "Ruined"- Actions: Interactions with items reworked.

mage_3719 7 Posted February 5, 2014 (edited) I wrote about this here. Check the quick FAQ at the bottom of the OP: http://forums.dayzgame.com/index.php?/topic/170826-managing-logoutlogin-post-033114782/ Thanks for the link. Basically, so if you aren't in the server for 30minutes the penalty would be a 5 minutes waiting time? Either wise it would be just the 30 seconds? EDIT: When I read the changelog it seemed to me the penalty for leaving the server early is higher if you exit the server quicker, up to a maximum of 5 minutes and a minimum of 30 seconds (just throwing out a number here. For example you leave 15 minutes in the penalty is 2.5 minutes). I guess its either 5 minutes or 30 seconds then from what I read on your FAQ. Also, what about server restarts? When a server restart before the 30 minutes are up, would I be slapped with the 5 minutes penalty? Edited February 5, 2014 by mage_3719 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sgt.Shadz 5 Posted February 5, 2014 Question regarding penalty ... if I loose connection to the server ... will I not be able to join the SAME server again for 5 mins .. or more, if I get dropped out??? ( Before the 30 mins playtime ) I've had my fair share of "no message recieved" error, where I need to log out, or get the battleeye error ... will this mean that I will be punished for this?`or does this apply only if changing server? What about if I log on to the server like 10 mins before the server restart to reset the daytime? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When a server restart before the 30 minutes are up, would I be slapped with the 5 minutes penalty?No, I think it's linear. I've gotten a 280 second penalty in experimental. And server restarts don't seem to count. At least crashes don't. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The no message received is usually the server restarting, and it doesn't count. However, yesterday in experimental I was getting session closed instead on server restarts. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
