You are quitting a game that is in alpha because you lost some stuff ?

Is this babbys 1st alpha ?
 
No Sniper rifle in the game yet, been experiencing periods of painful lag had the hosts look in to it and have confirmed its not a issue with the server or network.

Seems it could be to do with structures - possibly the frigging big tower although was running fine yesterday without any issues. perhaps to do with the amount of buildings on the server. can't complain still in alpha.
 
Ezah and I also have a house, found a lovely quiet spot, enjoying lazy days and BBQ's, watching the kids play in the meadow :D

The rubber banding was so severe last night I had to stop, would walk 4 steps then get propelled 3 steps back, is a shame as i'm loving the HG server so far.

TBH I am not sure how this will work, all those objects the server has to spawn in without any building rules. Shirley the server will start to suffer

Agreed there doesn't seem to be a limit with building, you can build practically anywhere on the land that's not a road the limit is dependent on how much resources you grind which would be good if it didn't impact server performance.

It does self clean, if a building hasn't been accessed for 24 hours it will decay - the opening of a door resets the timer but then what happens if your away for a few days - you loose what you built unless you build a metal building which can last 4 days un-attended, so what happens if you go away on holiday for a week - you share the building with someone or you hope IGE tap in to a new market.

For a server admin it's a nightmare as you can't remove or limit other peoples structures and the players can't remove their own structures without decay bedding in, or a **** load of C4 to destroy every panel which ain't going to happen.

That said, the server seems to be running okay now (for how long I couldn't say), Will certainly persevere with Rust whilst it has it' has faults it's very good fun and have to remember it's alpha with a good developer behind it - I'm very much done with Linear Gameplay - Sandpit gaming combined with persistent worlds can only keep my interest now.
 
I want to see the view from there, although I suspect with the draw distance you cant see the ground. Otherwise it would be great for spotting air drop locations, but you would be the last to arrive there after going down all those stairs :)

I built that tower :D

Was trying to see if there is a physical limit to how high you can build something - that is ~495 levels high. Had a go at jumping off it, takes a while to get to the bottom! Also takes about 7 mins to climb it.

The server is not stressed at all (or wasn't) when it was built, hardly any memory or CPU usage.

You can see the ground from the top of it, you get a good view of where the road goes and the major hills and structures.


I went to look at a pure PVE server and they had turned off decay completely, the whole map was full of structures, loads of them abandoned / not finished and there was absolutely no lag - it was a 200? player server too

I'm assuming you spawned all the parts for it into your bag and you didn't farm the best part of 100k wood? :D

Just leave the structures as they are, as you say decay gets rid of the unused structures. Extra ones don't really impact performance as far as I can tell. The only time I intervene on my server is if the radzone spawns get blocked. At that point I just create a load of C4, turn on god mode and blow it all up.
