V2.5+ Survival Revival Dev Diary

Take your time, but it would be really awesome if Damage Numbers was added as an option/toggle so I didnt have to type in "showhits damage" every time I started up the game.

Showhits Damage

We are actually adding a sandbox option for that.

I'm not sure if anyone here can help, but I was just thinking of something...

Where's the @#&^%^$@^ %* &&%^% *( (&%$# #%^ %^$#* & ^%#$# % %^$ **&%$ Update 2.6 Experimental?

Just a passing thought. @faatal ? Anything you know that you want to share?

@faatal seems alot of people are pressuring TFP to release 2.6
i wanted to give my thought on its release real quick,
after looking at the update history notes to the build and the previous posts about all the bugs being fixed, to me it just seems like there are to many bugs you folks are having to be dealt with atm.
so i propose you guys holding off on 2.6 release for another month or so to ensure all the nasty bugs are squashed.
Instead make a concrete ROADMAP FOR 2.6 RELEASE in 2 months.

thanks

So, if we feel it is ready today or tomorrow, we should just sit on it for two months? No thanks.

@Grandpa Minion
You're afraid of losing players because of bugs... Make a test server, I'm looking forward to it, although of course the online numbers are lower than yours...

I would not play an experimental if I was worried about bugs.

Sure. 2+2=4 and 2.6 localization was updated yesterday, which I think they were waiting on.

There aren't many people who need this. You can enable it; why clutter the new game menu with unnecessary options?

Why crop the screen so much? Both the computer and console screens have the same aspect ratio as the game image. Why cut off two-thirds of the image at the edges, turning the gameplay video into a keyhole view?

We lowly console players do not have the option to enable it, so it would be really nice if they added it for us, which it seems that Faatal said that they will be.

Uh, yeah, someone else already commented and answered your second question about aspect ratio, but that is how YouTube Shorts/Reels look. It has nothing to do with anything really.

What does the "Have a Cookie" reaction mean?

I have always viewed the "Have a Cookie" reaction as "You shared your opinion or statement. Good job. Whether anyone agrees or cares is unknown, but have a cookie anyway."

 

[Roland]

The cookie reaction is meant to be positive. It gives positive reputation when awarded. None of the reactions are meant to be used sarcastically though that won’t stop folks from doing so. None of them give negative reputation. The ones that are obviously positive give positive rep and the rest are neutral as far as rep is concerned.

From the context of posts I’ve seen with a cookie it always seemed like a sympathy prize.

 

[Vaeliorin]

I always viewed the cookie as "Congratulations, you're an idiot. Have a cookie."

Found a description:

"The cookie emoji () generally symbolizes a treat, reward, or comfort food, often sent to signify kindness, congratulations, or encouragement."

So guys, bring on the cookies, you know you want to... Right Jost Amman?

 

[bdubyah]

Yeah, definitely a sarcastic reaction to me. Haha. Especially when about the only ones I get are from Hammer, I know he isn't rewarding me for anything.
