Once an alpha is stable, we won't break saves for that alpha unless it is some major issue we can't work around.spacepiggio said:
In the future, keys or some such mechanism will address that.
Ultimately this is player choice. While I am sure there are some things TFP can do, the basic premise of the game is that every block is destroyable. There will always be shortcuts to loot. And to be honest, it's not like the loot in the caches is all that great anyway. Cars are one of the better sources of tools. Weapons are more easily obtained from Trader Rewards and Trader Inventory. Schematics are best found looking in mailboxes, book shelves, and random trash. And the best drop for Ammo is zombie loot bags. Just going to the Snow or Wasteland biomes and looting every car is probably a more efficient use of time than destroying blocks to get into loot caches.
BTW, I noticed that vehicles can hit an invisible wall (usually at top speed, but happened with bicycle in a 10k map a few times too) and result in stuff like jumping several meters into the air, bouncing off the invisible wall, backflipping, etc. The physics of the invisible wall issue can vary between vehicles and where you hit it at the time.
This issue has existed for a couple of Alphas now and the Devs haven't been able to track it down. I think the bigger issue is that vehicles are teleporting once you get off them and sometimes get buried in the ground in their new location. I have that happen a couple of times to my bicycle. This has never happened to me in previous Alphas (I play solo only).
Yeah, somehow it became quite frequent when chunk loading is getting stressed (edit: slow ram and/or not enough ram) , like in 10k maps. It used to happen just in Multiplayer. Now it's even common in Single player.
Could be chunks not loading/generating fast enough. Could be the Unity decides to make a semi functional collider issue, which requires a regen of collider and we don't know until the vehicle is trying to drive over it.
I get the same issue from time to time if I quit off on my vehicle aswell it telrports to where I last got on it its really strange it never used to happen it started happening in a18 I'm sure to some extent but became more common I'm a19 in sp too
Not heard of that from the test team. Could be an old data issue. Is this a new A20 game using an A20 world without mods?
Has anybody an Idea what this is ? There are these "ghost blocks" you can see them from time to time, but you can also walk right through them so they are not really there , andybody an idea if this bug is allready known? they are all over the map and look like parts of POI's. They are randomly appearing. Saw them in the city's the majority of the time.
I read somewhere that this can be caused by disembarking (E) while still holding (W)
Different issue. Collision mesh baking thread is new. AFAIK teleporting is fixed. What appears to be happening now is vehicles being thrown by physics due to some delayed or broken mesh colliders. I already tried to fix it and abuse it, but you think it is fixed and a tester turns around and says it happened, but then I can't repro.
Which is probably a server data issue. Deleting data locally won't fix it if the server turns around and sends you junk data again. All A19 worlds should to be deleted off the server because it is possible an A20 game could be started using an A19 world.
It's an annoying little bug. Have your vehicle parked up nicely so you can drop some loot into it on a T4/T5 run and you come back outside to find it 100m away
Yep I've seen this issue once or twice in A20 too. A door I had put into a POI was open but had 2 "ghost blocks" inside the door frame upon loading. Once the door was shut they went away. I've seen the issue with "ghost terrain" in many alphas and saw it once or twice in A20 as well, but it seems more rare now. That is where you have edited the terrain manually and upon loading in it is the old terrain visually but it doesn't actually exist (ie you can fall in holes prior created). Damaging the terrain seems to cause an update and fixes it.
All of my cases were Single player with a bicycle (because bicycle is good for your health,lol) . It didn't happen in single player back in a19 (it happened to my partners as p2p clients a couple of times in a19), but then again chunks weren't so crowded in the previous alpha.
