THEGordonFreeman 664 Posted January 19, 2023 @Kyiara forgive me, I see individual fixes for certain vehicles, I see tires can now be left off vehicles, but I don't see any reference to further fixes of vehicle stability. Can you clarify this? I was under the impression that this patch would further iterate on the change with vehicles from last patch 1.19. Also, curious, why put the connection and server messages in. The game originally had a connection icon (link chain), and it was decided it wasn't needed. Why bring that back now? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Supsuli 0 Posted January 19, 2023 (edited) Can we please fix vehicles, they are completely broken since 1.19. Also why don't damage settings for tents and fences work?

Our server has set disabledamage to 0 but they can still be broken. BI does ignore it's own variables. I have deadplayerlifetime set at default, 3600 seconds, yet player bodies despawn after 20 minutes. I have set that GLOBAL variable to 5 seconds, yet, player bodies despawn after 20 minutes. I could go on, but yeah, it is what it is at this point. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I could go on, but yeah, it is what it is at this point. Body lifetimes are bugged as fudge, yet when testing internally the devs have been unable to confirm this, so despite multiple tickets on the subject they have gotten nowhere with it. There is a workaround however - add each survivor model's classname to types.xml and set their lifetime to whatever you want it to be. Server restarts will still clear dead bodies, no way around that, but in this manner you can get bodies to at least remain until next server restart. Which means you get to see their decomposition stages, which are practically never seen since bodies despawn as soon as you turn your back...

Xeonmeister 22 Posted January 19, 2023 Love the update and cars feel much better now. Still wish they had more traction and maneuverability after slipping a little. One thing i don't like is how much slower the character gets by carrying more weight. If I have 50% of my stamina it feels like I'm heavy as a truck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mobbie 9 Posted January 20, 2023 (edited) Is this going fix AMD GPU issues like playing at 144 locked in most cases unless am in town's dip to 60-70 fps.. And when am looking around at 144 fps i drop 40 fps and feels like playing a game at locked 60 fps? Also getting off DX11_1 to DX11_3 would fix all issues AMD gpus have.

It is absolutely wonderful to see that the developers have patched up the final remaining minor bugs related to vehicles in 1.20. Of course they didn't touch vehicle stability; that was already addressed and taken care of in 1.19, in case you missed the memo. Now that we got an engine update for stability at a bug patch to follow we finally have as perfect a vehicle experience as you can get in just about any video game on the market. Congratulations BI, you really outdid yourselves this time! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Derleth 1357 Posted January 20, 2023 (edited) Quote Adjusted the geometry of barrels and fireplaces to cause less issues when colliding with vehicles So "adjusted" in this case equals "removed"? You can now walk through barrels as if they are not there... While this will certainly frustrate base raiders and save the odd vehicle, it is not a good change. What happened with those "heavy object physics" you were working on two (or is it three???) years ago. For one build in one experimental, barrels would roll downhill (and servers crash...), having vehicles' mass actually trumping that of the barrel to send it flying would be just a tad more elegant than making it immaterial.

Sorry, I made this bug on the tracker, but they made it private and just don't care. I've been waiting for almost a year. My goal is to make sure that as many people as possible know this. I will spam this link wherever possible. That's the only way developers do things. An example is Wobo's last bug about "Hitboxes of items in characters hands were misplaced" as soon as many people found out about it they did something.
