1) please add a couple of textures for the storage box. such as: for sale, fuel, building materials, raw materials, parts, mods etc.
2) add a boat model. that’s enough for us until you recycle the water and create a working boat. Modcreators use this model for create something working. Players, servers, can be played without loading boat models.
3) Create quests. Make a quest to repair or build an antenna, bridge, turret, etc. A quest for powering an object. A quest to deliver a box to another trader. quest to deliver resources to the trader.
4) remove the possibility to adjust the gamma or limit the diaposon, as in other survival games. For 4 years, played with over 500 people no one uses light. All twist the gamma.
5) add electrical appliances, forges, microwaves, ovens. The game has electricity, I don’t understand why not finish it.
6) modify the server part, there is not enough opportunity to work with zones. Modified quests do not work on a dedicated server. i wrote about this in detail in the forum.
p.s with love, a fan of the game played 2000 hours with friends, with the same avid players

Over 400 hours of alpha 18 (solo), and i am loving it so much. I gotta say i decided to buy by watching alpha 15 footage, anf that's why i agree, you need to update those zombies models, these new engine looks awesome, and old zombie models are a step back.
Loving your work, and i think you need even more zombie models. More cops, more bikers, medics, farmers, fast food employees, more millitary, navy, Swat, FBI, and ranks for each like Captain, Commander, General, etc. Assylum patients, convicts, mob. All kind of employees for each of youre POI's. For example Fireman, and of course "The Butcher".
In the other side, i think these game will last as long as you can find new POI's. There is a lot already and awesome ones, except some wich looks kind of flat. I was waiting so much from Police Department and Stadium on Navezgane, they are calling for a remake.
MCDyver addition it's greatest idea, to give some use to all the resources we are scrappping. And i can't ask you more.
So as a last thing, in the last place to ask for:
Improve biomes, like you did adding The Lumberjack for cold region. You could find some "inspired" characters from Friday 13th on the Forest, Nightmare on Elm Street on the Burn Forest or residential zone.
Seriously, loving and admiring all you hard work. These was the kind of game i was looking for since i saw my first zombie movie.
Thank you so much.

I thought so at first but Lathan mentioned the reason they have it is because they have plans for them to move around which makes sense...
...as long as the trader doesnt walk into the bathroom then that would be snowdog awkward....

I started a discussion over on the steam community about the upcoming analytics in A19, because I was worried that once news of that hit the general community of people who don't watch every livestream etc, things would turn into a garbage fire like with other games I have played. So I was trying to at least limit the garbage fire to one dumpster.
And in that conversation, one thought that came up was, will it be opt-in, or opt-out? Because if it were opt-in, that would be SO MUCH BETTER for community relations!

1) While I hope that they do add more paint textures, and I think that they are aware of community desires for more more more of those, there are apparently some kind of engine or performance limitations that limit the number of textures they can have, or some such. I'm not super clear on the details, but for some reason it's not as easy as just making a texture and including it in the build.
2) Modders can make models, too. The fun pimps are focused on other things right now.
3) They mentioned almost every one of those quest types in the recent livestream with Prime and Rick (does Rick have a dev nickname like everyone else?).
4) If you don't want your gamma adjusted, do not adjust your gamma.
5) They mentioned in the livestream that they do intend to do more with electricity before the game is done. However, no new electrical anything is in A19 as compared to 18.4, because they were focussed on other tasks for this iteration.
I don't know anything about 6.

In A19 gamma was changed to brightness when we switched to linear lighting. I limited the brightening compared to how bright you could go with the gamma setting.
Oh sweet! I forgot about the PBR stuff and lighting stuff they described! Is that going to make shadows cheaper? Will it have any impact on light underground?

Each paint texture uses more VRAM and are in a texture array that can't be streamed. The game slows if you run out of VRAM and textures start getting read from system RAM. Unity gives us no control over where textures are or even a way to tell if a texture made it into VRAM.
Thank you for that clear explanation, I will quote and reuse it when answering that question in the future!

Shadow rendering should be the same. Gamma vs linear should make no difference.
Underground lighting will be darker, as will indoor lighting, not from linear, but because we fade to different darker ambient light values when you are considered inside. This has a few side effects, since ambient colors are global, but works well enough.
Gotcha, thanks.
At least in my social circumstances, same here. I imagine it's more a cultural thing that depends on a biology thing, than a directly biological thing, but it's pretty firmly ingrained in my culture.I suppose you don't have an elder brother then... my elder brother is smaller and less fit than me but I still feel like he could boss me around lol

I liked the head tracking concept, BUT...did anyone find it a little weird that they all head track like there's a rope attached to their forehead and your character? It was too...samey? I still like it, but I think it needs a little work. I think they even mentioned it in the stream with the "Thriller" dance sequence. Keeping a little head bob, or randomize/delay the head tracking a bit so they aren't ALL synced together.
Yes, I also felt that the movement was a little too smooth and perfect.
For the traders, a big dose of random bobs and wavers would work. As for most of the zombies.
I feel like there should be maybe one zed, just one, who retains the current A19 pre-experimental behaviour forever. Just because it IS a little weird. And zombies are weird, sometimes.
