Initial Tests on objectDecayRate Values.

Decay Value: 1 (one day cycle)

A building with 20000 Durability lost 500.
A movable object (Chest/Crate) of 12200 durability lost 500.

Decay Value: 5 (one day cycle)

A building with 20000 Durability lost 2500
A movable object (Chest/Crate) of 12200 durability lost 2500

I feel that even at the Lowest Value of 1 the decay on movable & unmovable objects is WAY to high of 1000 per day.
Would be more viable if it was a percentage value like 5% per objectDecayRate Values.

Very painful to test as you have to shut down the server change the value restart and wait for a day cycle.

Completely agreed. Currently objects break down at 50% durability. With the default 3 hour day cycle, your buildings will break down in just 1 real life day. Even your best buildings will break down in 2 days. Also if I understand it correctly, decay only works outside of claims, I hope in due time decay will work inside claims but just has a lower decay rate.

I feel decay is a really cool feature and it ´forces´ people to build inside their claim area and actually actively maintain their buildings. I really hope that this default server feature gets balanced out, so we can properly use it.

Decay setting of 1 I thought only did 500 durability damage. That has been my experience at least with it and the setting we use for Arkhaya.

You are right... its 500
did i retest.... must of missed a day cycle....
