[QUOTE=vemelon;44044027]Hey Guys, I noticed there are no more airdrops on my server (50players) where airdrop.min_players is on 10... Am I the only one?[/QUOTE] I agree. No airdrops since update. HAve mine set to 30 and usually have 50 online. Checked for the day cycle to see how many players we had and if there should be an airdrop and no drop happened.
soooooo only im happy that there is no Airdrops ?
No Airdrops since the update. I can confirm this.
With such a major feature being removed, it would be nice if they were included in the patch notes.
yeah the server im on has 90+ pop 24/7 and not a single airdrop since the update.
[QUOTE=Zoliru;44053976]soooooo only im happy that there is no Airdrops ?[/QUOTE] yeah you are the only one there are people that are not afraid of some pvp and raids, you know this is the point to this game anything goes player freedom and what's a survival game without heavy loss and risk? If you wanna just build bases and hold hands I'm sure there is an LEGO mmo game for you.
So my question is...was this deliberate or just an oversight?

Well can you explain how then is anyone supposed to get explosives. Also one of the best parts of the game is the airdrops. Sitting around waiting for it to hit the ground knowing that half the server is either on it's way or watching you.
My auto drops are working fine @ 20 players.
[QUOTE=STRYD3R;44054294]My auto drops are working fine @ 20 players.[/QUOTE] there was a 9mb download last night on steam maybe that was a hot fix? Strange there is no feedback from devs.

OR how often can it drop explosives.
[QUOTE=boofaroo;44054363]there was a 9mb download last night on steam maybe that was a hot fix? Strange there is no feedback from devs.[/QUOTE] It was working all night last night after the initial update. No issues.
Stryd3r, are you on a modified server? I don't know for sure, but I think I remember some mods allowing for scheduled airdrops, which would still work as evident by the fact that calling the airdrop via the admin command works fine. This probably rules out the problem being that 'the island moved'. It would seem to me that the built-in trigger is no longer working. With the new sky, it seems that time is different now, so maybe the time-based trigger for the airdrop was broken (not the airdrop itself).

I called one manually, and players reported 2 more drops after I logged off. I guess there is a chance they got multiple personal drops, but they are pretty rare.

I was on a vanilla server for hours that continuously had a 100+ folks on it during that time, and no automatic airdrop. Couldn't those other drops have been from previously acquired supply signals, or did you wipe after the update?
[QUOTE=TP_MoonStar;44052060]A wild guess would be that since they changed the island position and location the plane is flying on where the island was before. :P[/QUOTE] The coordinate system is exactly the same. The teleports that worked before still go to the same places, so no.

Last time the map was corrupted, and this time peoples inventories seemed corrupted.
[QUOTE=HoboNinja;44056254]The coordinate system is exactly the same. The teleports that worked before still go to the same places, so no.[/QUOTE] Another good point. Some people need to up the sensitivity on their sarcasm detector for when Garry says things like 'we moved the island.'
Well enough people are complaining it is not working so there must be some issue. Nice that it supposedly works for one or two people but for the rest of us it is a problem.
US East coast 1 official server have not seen an airdrop since the update. Otherwise great update anyhow :D
When me and my friends where running a server we didn't turn on airdrops for 1 week after each wipe. This gave people a chance to build up, ect. Then we set the air drop number to normal limit so they would appear. We found this was a good balance for everyone, as not everyone can spend 12+ hours in their moms basement right after wipe building up mega bases and getting C4 + Explosives to raid everyone on day 2. To each there own tho, however it would be nice to see this as a feature that you could enable or more admins doing it as I like everything the air drops give, I just didn't like the frequency on some servers.
Having the same issue. Ours is also a vanilla server, which seems to be a common theme in these problems. Haven't seen an (automatic) airdrop since the update, though we have had enough players for hours and adjusting the minimum number of required players has no effect.
This must be a big have try ed setting it from 1 -50 and nothing. its all good ill just drop one here and there and see people kill each other Good times.
no airdrops on official server North America 2 since the patch.
We don't have any airdrops on NA4 :(
Same issue, no airdrops.
I can say Airdrops on Oceanic one arent working properly running Magma / Rust++. If they do spawn (even if players set to 1) they either dont land or despawn as they hit the ground.
Multiplay no airdrops. Did they update?
Missing airdrops on my server too. Manually calling them works fine.
