bring medpacks and start in summer and you can ride a horse swimming to the arctic.

Thats how we got snowflake there, as soon as you're about to die fromt he cold, hop off the horse, take a medpack, back on the horse and keep going.

Took us about 3 medpacks.

Bring a campfire for when you arrive, you'll want to warm up.

before the update i was messing with some bridge type stuff. would be more of a dock structure but when you got to the end it would tp you to its adjoined bridge. prefabs are "kind of" broken since the update. you now have to manually assign the textures, this adds alot of unneeded file handling and code that would just need removed later.

wouldn't mind a ride able seahorse!

Awsome, glad I could help.

what you say "spam" kill, how fast are we talking? I know threw api you could do like 1k a sec lol.

and to set the weather (untested since a few updates ago).

public void setWeather(String newWeather){
        WeatherDefs.Weather newWeatherDef = Definitions.getWeather(newWeather);
        Server.setWeather(newWeatherDef, false);
    }

you passing your output the instance of the weather def and not the weather name.

public void weatherTest(){
        WeatherDefs.Weather def = Server.getCurrentWeather();
        String weatherName = def.name;
        println(weatherName, 14);
    }

there are already unicorns in the game.

Could it be a texture issue? because the collision box is there.

it may be. tho im not 100 percent. i would break it down to the basic's and just create the prefab with no components.

Quote from Itoryu Anuwon

Since the last update my elevators have been invisible. Is there a fix for this?

No, the creator has to rebuild the assets.

make sure you are using Unity 6000.0.60f1

the permission denied means something needs changed in the player permissions.

Quote from red51

Just to avoid misunderstandings: the game does not spawn new threads or something like that. It just creates a new JNIenv pointer everytime you access an API method from a new thread (that was not created by the game). It's a waste of resources ofc and could also result in other issues, so it's definitely a more serious bug.

Unfortunately there are no more hotfixes planned, but I'll prepare at least a hotfix for the server which fixes this bug, would that work for you? The next regular update (which also contains the fix) should still be ready this year

whatever works for you. I've added a sett8ng for now to disable multi threads in my plugin so really no rush. AS long as its not really creating hundreds of threads lol.

yes I only run them on dedicated servers. I never test in single player or p2p

i have been working on a rather large plugin and i NEED to implement threading. i have been driving myself crazy with an issue tho. it seems to me that if i create a new thread the API creates hundreds of new threads. i have done some testing and i dont no think it is my code. any input would be helpful.

logs to show what i think is an issue

Again it may be me but o do not believe it is.

Quote from red51

Oh, that's actually intended This was meant was a preview of the new position (similar to hitting the move buttons in the menu)... but if you hit Cancel, the npc should go back to the original position.

What exactly are you trying to do? i know some about D&D and i think i understand what your trying to with the billboard posters. I have been "tinkering" with interactive billboard images in the API. if you need something like a static billboard image i could put a small plugin together for you. so the way it would work, you place images into a folder. the plugin would allow you load those images into the world. i could make them interactive in case a "DM" needed to move them. would also be able to resize them.

I search but i can't find yet release note about API Changes. It still unreleased or just i don't find it?

Red51 doesnt have the API change log ready yet. He's working on it.

red51 great work as always! any info on API changes?

Quote from Ravenwood

No. I want to know how far from their spawn point will they wander. Is it a set limit.

Think of cows on a real farm. They can only wander within the fenced off pasture and no further. When they reach the fence they turn around and stay within the boundaries. (Their radius from centre field.)

In which case we cannot move them to another field further away.

I know that in a future update we will be able to lure them away but I figured it may be fun to work with what we have and herd them onto my farm which is a fair distance away.

They will go wherever you put them. There is no limit. Keep in mind, some animals are in groups(herds), If you move one the others will fallow and they seem to want get to one another.

Quote from SonoBionda

That sounds good... I'll replace the barbarian vendor... Having a druid in the selection would still be nice (at some point we might have healing potions too)... at least he could sell herbs and bandages

before i i decided to make it one plugin i was already reworking the vendors system. the new version on the plugin you will be able to create a vendor with a settings file so you will be able to theme them how you like.
