I just read through the chunk reset option and related and I really like the concept of it and very very greatly appreciate it's upcoming addition. While I currently use loot respawn, chunk resetting is far superior since terrain, blocks, and challenge get restored rather than say loot rooms...

Question: SMG Turrets and Shotgun Turrets no longer seem to set off demolishers, but junk sledge and junk turrets still do. I didn't see mention of this on either the patch notes nor on the Public A20 KI List yet. Is this a bug? a balance change? intentional difference between turret types? I...

Man, I feel you. My friend and I have experienced this bug as well, it's been especially brutal since I'm an INT main. He's had it as the host and I've had it happen as the client connected to his game. When he's reported his turret as having fallen, I was still seeing it still where he placed...

I'm excited for the drone, but I'm also confused by lack of documentation/communication regarding it. I had to wait for streamer weekend for more info and I still feel in the dark. I understand the drone was originally built as an INT class weapon, but it's been changed so that it's effectively...

The backend work TFP has done on major systems are solid examples that this update is just the size is needs to be: The work done on blocks, building menu, distant imposters, and RWG is a framework that will impact every update that comes after it. This kind of system engineering and...

Correct. While it's a great perk, it only impacts the player who took it. I'm thinking more about the player applying the benefit of their perk. Though honestly, I've mostly done SP recently. I can't even recall trying to use a splint on someone else in recent memory.

Seriously appreciate all the detail work you guys do. Good data reporting = better decision-making and more efficient use of time. As much as people are clamoring for a release, much rather you guys have time to find those show stopper bugs and the smaller bugs that wreck immersion -- like the...

It sounds like the emotional core of your argument is about feeling disrespected, jealous, and entitled to having the experimental update they are choosing to artificially allow access to. I get that that it sucks, I really do. There's nothing wrong about being passionate about wanting something...

Oh yeah. I completely agree on my points not being about salient or mechanical game balance. Personal feelings don't always make for intelligent design or for unbiased balance considerations. (however, feelings can inform how people derive fun/enjoyment or stumbling blocks to...

For the INT tree, My big question is: does the drone's heal get impacted by the drone owner's Physician perk? e.g. 25%, 40%, 55%, 75% added healing? Does the player who owns the drone also get the XP from the heal? and if so, is that XP boosted by Physician bonus? That synergy is going to be...

Really loved the Random gen stream. The tile system is fantastic and I'm really looking forward to seeing just how expandable it is. I know it's by no means finished and that more is always better for making a random world feel less 'empty' and more alive. What I'm most excited for is the part...

During some of the teaser videos of the tile system, we saw examples of the tiles rerolling POIs from their corresponding bucket of prefabs based on zoning type. It got me wondering: Would it be possible to set up a system where when taking a new trader quest you could have an option to keep or...
