PC V2.0 b294 EXP Update

I actually had a ticket from Allan on that from March, but it got lost in all the stuff I have going on, so it was good it got noticed. Changes for crouching broke it and I made it better to boot.
Oh, I believe it. Definitely not trying to give JaWoodle credit. It's just funny to me that he made a video about it just a couple days ago.

Awesome work as always! Keep it up!

I will throw J some credit as it did remind me I needed to fix it after Allan reminded me that he saw it first!
 
But in my opinion, the length of the day should not affect the duration of storms.
I completely concur with this statement,
storms tend to last too long when servers are operating with extended durations, which is the case for most servers.
There needs to be a setting to implement a configuration change that allows server owners to modify the duration of storms.
Overwhelmingly, on our server 98% of players have expressed their dissatisfaction regarding the length of storms, particularly since we operate on a 120-minute day cycle.
 
It comes down to a matter of choice, and for choices there are consequences.
Now, you've got me wanting to play 4 hour+ days. I mean that I like modding and that
single setting sounds like it would lean toward RPG style play. Thanks for the answers I
never put it together in thought before. You know Forest Trees adage.
 
These storms in the wasteland are very annoying. They seem to start immediately as I log in and last...a long time. 15 minutes ? Its a killjoy as I have to log off.

The storm-safe logic is also broken. I can be 50 m underground and get affected by the storm.

I just made a fix to make the duration real time, so DayNightLength will not effect it. That will get tested Monday and should make 2.1.

Do you have the hole above you blocked? Or at least have you moved to the side so there isn't a hole above you?
 
Actual plague spitters, or are you just getting bees when chopping stumps.
I get the bees randomly while chopping stumps, but I expect that. I actually have had plague spitters appear in the forest and in the burnt biome. Once each. I wish everything was selectable in the menu, for me it's taking away the fun of the exploration I like in the game and making it deadly all the time and everywhere. It's ok, I'm just gonna stay with 1.4 until they quit supporting it. Dying on day 2 because I don't have the armor or weapons to defend myself from zombies I shouldn't have to encounter in places I don't expect them to be just isn't fun for me.

I've been safe from the storm by just standing in the front porch of a house... I was thinking it worked a bit like light with farm plots.
 
storms are still 15 minute long on our new seed 2.2 stable
our server is on 120 minute days.

Your server is so heavily modded, and outside of supported values, that I wouldn't count that towards an issue with the client. Most likely, something else is preventing it from functioning as it should.

i have not yet tested the time in vanilla so that could very well be the case,
if you test it let me know... since you are the "tester", thanks.
be sure to test no mods, single player, game time=120.
but yeah before throwing that catch phrase "modded server" show us some results.

That's really up to you to do. You can't expect others to figure out what's wrong with a heavily modded server. If people are having trouble with storms in 2.2, I'd expect to see posts about that ... in a 2.2 thread or support thread rather than a 2.0 EXP thread.
