Building

Post by Briboy2005 » 25 Nov 2015, 13:14

I am having a very frustrating problem when I go to build something.
Example
I go to build a kiln
I get the little board with the cross on it which tells me all the stuff I need to build the kiln
I go off and start collecting all the items I need.
Obviously I cant carry it all, so I put some of the items in the build board.
I go off to get some more items and when I get back its gone!!!
Of course I have lost all the items I put in the build board.
This is frustrating beyond belief!
I had to make 3 attempts to build a tiny hut the other day. It took me an age. Has anyone else had this problem?
I am at my wits end with this! :x

Does the server that you play on has decay enabled? And if yes, what is their decay rate?

Yes the decay rate is 10 but I have turned it off for now. Was that the problem do you think?
Also I have been getting back to my little hut to find it on fire! This has happened twice now. I am the only one on my server so what is causing this have you any idea please?

The current decay rate is way to high.

The lowest decay rate of 1 already reduces an object's durability by 500 per ingame day. A decay of 10 reduces several thousend points in durability.

If you use a decay rate of 10, then not only signs will disappear almost immediately, but even the perfect buildings of the maximum 20000 durability will break down within 1 real life day.

If you want decay on your server I'd suggest never going above a rate of 1.

Many thanks for taking the trouble of getting back to me on this it was a great help. What about my coming home to a burning hut? Any ideas why I am getting that problem? I am the only one on my server!

Decay is most likely borked . I play in a minimum decay server and it still has construction signs disappearing left and right , not even in the same time intervals (one disappeared in 45 mins the other , less than 15) and the sad part is , the thing doesn't refresh this unrealistic decay timer when you interact with it (before its built , I don't mind if t doesn't resresh after its built as that's what repairing is for , but dexay before its even built ? A joke .). Please remove this silly dexay system for unbuilt structures or at least make it 5 times longer than the server decay rate for built structures . Make this game less frustrating devs , please make simple quality of life changes like this .

Briboy the burning hut is exactly the same as disappearing signs. The decay.


Without decay huts will never get on fire.

So if I end up with lots of building boards all over the place its just a case of turning the decay mode on for a short time. I am slowly getting the drift of this game. My burning hut is OK as it acts as a homing beacon for me at night :D
