Guns won't ever happen, there will be alternative ranged weapons but no actual guns outside of sandbox mode.
Guns would be way too powerful. If just a nail gun could break wheels on murderfur, imagine how actual guns would affect the game?
Like I said, no guns outside of Sandbox mode. You can obviously just mailbox them from a sandbox save or cheat them in with unlocker and nobody is stopping you, but you won't just be getting a gun in normal story mode.
yeah that makes sense. Can't obtain them without cheats or mailbox, I see your point now.
At the very least a battery with 0 charge should be relabeled so it doesn't stack with batteries that have charge.
Enable "Extreme combat" in Experimental settings, it reenables the usage of more extreme weaponry.
Yhea, I actually found that out just now, and was gonna retract my previous statement
thank you for the information
The game literally tells you how to do this. If you get a number higher than 10 then you would just put the number in the ones place as your answer, so 11 would be 1 and 12 would be 2, so on and so forth. you will never have a negative either because regardless of what the math says you always take the bigger number minus the smaller one.
Bruh, lmao. The exact words in the tutorial are "simply remove the tenths column." In hindsight I understand this, but the meaning of the words specifically is unclear, especially in the use of the word "column." This led me to think it was referring to one of the columns on the screen, as that's designed in rows and columns similar to a spreadsheet. The spreadsheet comparison is made stronger by the use of MOD(), which, unless it has some secondary meaning, is nonsensical.
As for the second point, you got the correct answer, but the way you're doing it isn't mathematically correct. It's the result of an unnecessary simplification without an understanding of the operations. It also flies directly in the face of the tutorial text, which specifically provides a negative result as an example. This is also another point that's unclear, as it doesn't explain that it expects the absolute value, I didn't remember that 1-8=-7 but |1-8|=7, and many people won't know that an equation surrounded by pipes means absolute value. On top of that, the include of MOD() around the equation threw me off even more because I was trying to figure out how a broken modulo operation fits in.
So, no, the game does not literally tell you how to do this. There are gaps in the explanation of what's wanted.
Hard and obtuse are totally different things. Incomplete/unclear instructions impose false difficulty at best, and there's no fun in that.
It was also confusing for me, but as I saw mod|..| I immediately understood that it means |..| mod 10
i've never had problems with calall, what exactly is happening when you input that? A lot of the fences can be climbed by double tapping jump while in midair and facing the fence, but the ones on the border are only able to be jumped in certain spots. There is a hole in the metal grate on the "dam" that blocks the river on either side of the map. you can easily get out of the main area by going through those holes and Kerfus can even come with if you want. lol
Что стало с рецептом Керфура Омеги? Теперь в книжке пусто. Из рецепта по памяти получается одна часть. Что произошло?
Что блин происходит с английским переводом ниже?
-------------------------------------
What happened to the Kerfour Omega recipe? Now <span class="EzKURWReUAB5oZgtQNkl" data-src-align="43:1" <the<="" span=""> book</span> is empty. One part of the recipe is obtained from memory. What happened?
Now the wood chipper can no longer chip wooden debris, while it still works with wooden scrap and mannequins. I tested this on multiple modes. I assume this is a bug and not a feature.
Total Volume is shown as 0 for all boxes, upon reloading the game. Taking an item in/out fixes this for this instance, until the game is reloaded.
Some berry hitboxes are very small compared other berries. This is probably not intended as it's annoying. Also the berries don't disappear off the model when they are picked.
Nah man, im done with this **** game. It wasnt that bad the first time because at least this stupid thing fell in front of our windows and only office was destroyed. But now something just flashed and destroyed the whole base AND I STILL DONT KNOW WHAT. 
The blue plastic bins have this thing where when you put items in them the item becomes "connected" to the bin, but moving the bin in weird ways, like with grav gun or if you trip over it, can cause the items to fall out of the bin but still be "attached" to the bin. If you pick up the bin and like scoop the items up with the bin it should fix them.
Food tolerance hasn't really balanced anything for me outside of MREs, I have never experienced kel refusing to eat another food item from food tolerance even with my diets for several days consisting of mainly just 1 food item, maybe eating something else minor if it's available. Even intentionally eating as much of one food item as I can to try and experience it had no results.
Thanks, i finnaly did it. She's just wonderful. I guess I shouldn't have decided to craft her in this month of the year. What could go wrong?
I'm just saying it open a vulnerability to cheat in anything you want, so it destroys the problems you have. Not too big of a problem.
OBJECTION!
One: I agree.
Two: I DOUBLE Agree.
Three: I like this variety of sounds of eating. You immediately understand that you are not eating some cosmetics for food, but really different food. It may not be at the level of Tarkov, but it's definitely better than the old version of eating sound.
Flour: The ability to reboot transformers even when they are not yet broken. Then you will definitely become a hikkan.
Just to make sure, you know you can tighten the time waiting between autosaves right? Not saying your suggestion is wrong just want to make sure you know
Honestly, these are really good suggestions. Having occasional change from hash codes would be more interesting. Maybe the random tasks start after week 2? I thought the wind turbines might be setting up for that.
I was thinking the same thing about daily tasks, the lack of variety, having days on random or a set day of the week lacking a daily task would also be nice to give players a break without them losing out a good chunk on their weekly bonus. Could even have weekly tasks that have to be completely by the end of the week on top of it.
Remove the tenths column, so 5 + 5 = 10 would be 0, 7 + 8 = 15 would be 5, etc.
Says this in the servers tutorial.
How this could be fixed is to add a setting for max mushrooms. like the max roach setting .
i think this can also be fixed by instead of making them render as an object make them render as a plane with a png on it when the player is far away this will probably make it alot less hard on the game because it only will have to render the 2 triangles for the plane and the image saving alot of render time for frames and cpu stress
That's a really good idea. Maybe there could be different stages of sickness. For example:
0 - Healthy
1 - Sick (1 bad food eaten, vomiting)
2 - Food Poisoning (2 bad food eaten, dizziness, falling over, vomiting, sleep drain)
3 - Mega Food Poisoning (5 or more bad food eaten, effects amplify, add health drain)
This is the state of a 0.8.1 save on day 35.
It's been my first ever experience playing this game along side with friend... And it was fantastic! I've seen some gameplay from like a year ago build of the game, and seeing so many little, but REALLY significant changes is super nice!
Starting with what I think about new Kerfur-O craft: yeah, it's a pretty good change (kinda related to that tho, I hope more stuff is going to be added in the caves, cause it took us around an hour of regenerating the layout to find one signle crystal shard. Finding something else along the way would make it feel more worth the time) HOWEVER, I do think that the scuba mask price should be lowered in like half. I can understand it being 1000 + 100 if there's gonna be more things to dive for, however rn it's just a little too much. Lowering the amount of plastic scrap needed from 14 to 10 would also be a small, but appreciated change IMO.
I liked the pacing of the game I've experienced so far. The very first week was CHAOTIC. First time playing and we could barely finish the task like once every two days (now probably it wouldn't be so much of a trouble, but managing servers, generators, hashcodes and signals at the same time is a really nice way to keep player busy in this early game). The second week was the getting used to week. The first good end of a week bonus, and finally some free time, which was spend slowly but surely getting rid of all the trash and cleaning the base bit by bit each day. Around end of week 2 is also when Kerfur was bought, and it's been pretty much a perfect 500 points bonus each week after that. The next two weeks were spend gathering items around the map and preparing money for the Kerfur-O. Small note, I really like how you can also open the second bunker door with a crowbar, it was a very pleasant surprise. Hook is one of the best things in this game, the amount of smart things you can do with it and ATV is insane! And overall, I love how whenever you have an item, it's better to get another one to best utilize it! I can dig the whole area with a shovel, but buying a metal detector makes it easier. That's why I love this game so much, the depth of these mechanics is awesome!
Anyway, one small suggestion I might have about mid game is to have new hashcodes be more likely to appear on a satellite that you haven't visited in a while. At one point Ihad an idea pop into my head about an item that would allow you to name it, and then target it by its name, but honestly? The game loop is so perfect, that you really do get familiar with this map by the end of week 3-4. During week 1 it seemed SO big, so hard to move around fast; but during week 3-4, I was really surprised to notice how it feels like less than a minute passes between one satellite to another. And so, after four weeks our base is clean, our upgrades are upgraded, we found the last Kerfur-O crafting material, and the only thing that was left was to collect scrap. The part I liked is that we had to stop by transformers A LOT during the mid game, especially tr_1 and tr_3, thanks to the tree house and the cave being nearby, and every time we went there I could already picture moving all the useful items from there to craft scrap. When that time came, it was really satisfying for some reason. These two corners of the map are probably our most favourite ones, and I really hope that something similar could be added near tr_2 to make that corner also be rememberable. But unfortunatelly, that's where we stopped at the moment :D
However, I do know, that this is basically the perfect timing, cause from what I know week 5 is when the most exciting events are happening and you can freely explore the map to experience them! The whisps event is also perfectly placed in my opinion. By that time we only had to explore the cave and move the materials from transformers, and those guys really made that process more fun! I've seen someone mention their Red Kerfur moving crazy in this version after similar thing been happening to us :D While running away in the dark of the night from the whisp it was hilarious to witness Red Kerfur fall into the river, while spinning at insane speed. Can't wait to play further and finally buy 3D printer! I love how you can actually decorate your base in this kind of way. Buying a TV, a radin, and a few painting frames to add more cats, funky music, and movies with bad resolution does a fantastic job at providing fun in between events, and even helping you to drop your guard. Don't have anything else to say but to thank you for creating this amazing game! It's definitely phenomenal, it's the most fun I had in a while, and I will return to it with more different friends! I will leave the picture of our office somewhere at the start of week 4, cause we got hit by that stupid geometric shape, and then while testing it we created something really hilarious that just made our office look even more surreal
I saw a video of someone catching a boar in a green trash can. lol then they could "use" the trash can and the boar came flying out. not sure if it was a mod or something though
Ah yes, I did that too to catch the boars lol. It was the best way to deal with them, at least during 0.8. But I don't think it was intentional, and it was kind of impractical to go around the map carrying trash cans to capture.
But yeah, I guess it was kinda cool to go around the map catching monsters as if I want to be the very best like no one ever was ;)
You already can do this? lol you need to edit the "online.txt" file. Just look up how to add tv links in votv. its kind of annoying to set up at first but just like the 3d printer after doing it a few times it should be pretty easy.
Давно существует такая возможность
C:\Users\ИМЯ_ТВОЕГО_КОМПА\AppData\Local\VotV\Assets\tv
Файл online.txt в него вставлять ссылки на видео
I must say, when I was first starting VoTV I also felt like the days passed too quickly in the early game, so I also made them a bit longer, the experimental settings are really great! Hope Dr. Nose keeps them. They're also great for when you don't have much to do so you can speed up time.
Yeah, that's exactly what I was talking about. Especially when you're trying to figure out how to play and start exploring the area, the days go by pretty fast.
I remember when I first started playing, it took me an entire in-game week to clear the base of small debris, trash piles and dirt stains. Maybe if I had noticed the day speed setting a little earlier, I wouldn't have missed so many days, lol
The hope is for the new version to be around new years, as it is a late christmas update.
I'm sure the first bug you pointed out is more of an easter egg than a bug. There are also other events in the game that cause your game to crash.
As for the third bug, everything is fine. You don't need to retrieve garbage bags. Just pick up a roll of garbage bags and click on the pile of garbage. The roll of bags is a more practical alternative to the regular bags, although the roll does cost a bit more. It's easier to keep a roll of bags in your inventory and you can also see how many bags are left if you left-click on an empty spot.
Oh, I forgot to mention two big crashes, which I am pretty sure were intentionally programmed, but actually caused unreal engine fatal crashes. A force-close is one thing, but an actual "Fatal error" is kind of overdoing it, unless the message itself is just faked, in which case you should seriously consider changing the error message to make it clear that the crash was "intentional", or at the very least, not related to actual hardware/software issues.
Also, if events can cause crashes, it absolutely NEEDs an update to the auto-save system to actually auto-save prior to any such event, even if it's a hidden autosave that doesn't announce itself, to maintain the surprise. It's too realistically possible to be on your ATV all day and miss all the autosaves leading up to an event that crashes the game (again, assuming they were intentional, I've listed the 2 I ran into below).
I got some ominous music one night and lost the ability to pause (this was before I realized this meant an event was in progress). As the music wound down, I wandered over to sort some of my tables, and the game froze and these bars of rainbow nonsense, similar to some sort of rendering error, grew on the screen in a thatched pattern, leading up to the crash. I was able to screenshot the artifacts, meaning they were in the render buffer, and not a physical issue, which is why I think it may have somehow been intentional.
The second time I got the same pattern, I got some tool-tips indicating I should check out something going on in the mountains. Not sure if it was the picknickers or something else, I checked over the mountains near the strange box with the tile-lock. As I approached the mountain, a black particle fell into the mountain, which I assumed was just a firefly sprite disappearing. When I went over the mountain, the black particle was now a flat featureless square sprite pulsing as it moved down the mountainside. I approached it, and accidentally rolled into it on the ATV, and the game froze and the rainbow artifacts grew out again.
These are intentional, they work kind of as a "punishment" for playing for several hours straight non-stop.
The first one you mentioned is a rare random chance after playing one session for a long time, the second one appears after 6 hours but isn't directly "hostile", it will follow you around but will try to stay a short distance from you at all times so it won't touch you, it only crashes you if you touch it anyway.
The "Fatal error" crash message, if the instance of it is intentional, is typically accompanied by something else happening before it so it is quite obvious. It also slightly behaves differently than the normal fatal errors from what I have seen, the actual fatal error crashes don't seem to freeze the game after they happen.
The first bug is actually not a bug but still isn't intentional, it was unintentionally left in when the update released.
1: I'm pretty sure that was changed for copyright reasons so they can't bring it back.
2: You can already get your ability to use weapons back, turn on Extreme Combat in the experimental settings.
The ATV is getting some changes next update apparently, so we will have to wait and see if this gets changed too.
alt R does work. sounds like it's not working because you have a windows shortcut or something enabled for alt R. afaik there is no fps counter in game.
There is, but it is just a part of your HUD you can't turn off without hiding everything else.
Control buttons can always be reassigned. For example, I used to open the NVIDIA panel by pressing Alt+X, but I reassigned it to Alt+R as the rarest key combination, since Alt+X was also used in some game. But in this game I encountered this combination and simply reassigned the Alt button to an additional control button on the mouse - very convenient if you need to throw something on the run, for example.
Since it is functional now, the oven door glass could probably be made partially transparent to allow you to see inside without having to open it.
I had the same problem but after he whooped my ass a few times he finally disappeared. You could try making the brew if you haven't but it can be hard when he's hunting you down.
Even now, with a complicated crafting recipe, some people manage to assemble their Kerfur-O in two in-game days. Making the crafting more complicated should have stopped this.
Honestly, making it any harder isn't really good for anyone at this point. You have to remember that there are more casual players (like me) who already take a while to get Kerfur-O even pre-recipe change.
If people still can and want to speedrun getting it even now, good for them, they can play how they want. I don't think making the recipe even harder would stop them anyway, so making it harder would just be harming the casual players and not actually deterring kerfur speedrunners.
