drslam31 5 Posted March 21, 2014 So i have Dayz standalone on 2 machines. 1 works fine with no issues. The 2nd machine is my sons and he is unable to walk in the game. Everytime he tries to walk it goes prone. He can try moving in any direction and it goes prone. I read that this is what happens when you have a broken leg, but he has no indicator on the screen that the has a broken bone and he has drowned twice to ensure this was not the issue. I have replaced the keyboard with no luck. Anyone else had this issue? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Villain 16 Posted March 21, 2014 No I have not heard or seen of this before...Have you applied a splint or morphine to see if that does fix your issue, I know you have killed your toon a couple of times but it could be a weird server issue you have ran in to...That's what I would do...Also have you logged into both accounts on your p.c and does your sons toon still go prone on your p.c?

preacherlr 614 Posted March 21, 2014 You can drown?You can, It's touch and go though, Sometimes you don't respawn, you just pop back under water.

drslam31 5 Posted March 21, 2014 (edited) Villian, I have not tried to apply morphine or anything, I've only been playing for a few days so learning myself. I'll try to login as him on my pc tonight and see what happens. I'll update with what I find. Preach, Yes I have checked the key bindings as well. Thank You for the suggestion. My son is 10 and is getting frustrated so I may have to let him play as me. Edited March 21, 2014 by drslam31 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VPPTrue 9 Posted March 21, 2014 (edited) You drowned your son...You monster!!!! Joking aside, I believe the last post said try morphine..I think his legs were broken and for some reason killing the character didn't reset it.

Mr Sinister 167 Posted March 21, 2014 Let a zombie shred his character or beat it to death with the your character, that water/drowning (and spawning from it) is a real grey area at the moment for alot of reasons. After that if its still happening, id go for a complete wipe of the game off his comp and re- install. Bout all i can think of, GL with it. If you can get on the game at all its good fortune alone, with how the desync problem is :). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drslam31 5 Posted March 21, 2014 I have been thinking about killing my son since I found out about the broken bones issue. I guess I'll log both accounts in and then go kill my son HAHAHAAHAH. I'll try a few things and let you all know what happens. I don't have the items needed to heal him so an axe to the head is all I can do :/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now we know :)I'm glad you didn't have to kill your son lol..Good to hear you got it resolved..Run into a lot of bugs in Alpha builds and sometimes you just have to go through an elimination process to find the issue..All the bestVillain Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
