Wipe and Downtime - Rust - Facepunch Forum

Why was the rust branch kept separate from the main server from the get-go? Guessing it was to test how sustainable it was by itself?

Perfect, just what was needed to give the lonerangers a chance! Cool for the smaller groups too!

[QUOTE=Prez;41720751]Why was the rust branch kept separate from the main server from the get-go? Guessing it was to test how sustainable it was by itself?[/QUOTE] So we didn't have to bring the server down for a month

Garry main question, will you wipe the map again?When you fix everything

i hope so -.- there are ALOT of bug you guys should put back the backup from the before the wipe... and just do wipe to the inv and the houses but not the Blueprints.

i think it's good, that all players need the blueprints :D it makes more fun.

thank you and good night

I'm excited Garry! I am wondering what additions this update is going to bring? I don't fully understand what this update did so would someone mind explaining it to me?

[QUOTE=Tarcan;41721712]I'm excited Garry! I am wondering what additions this update is going to bring? I don't fully understand what this update did so would someone mind explaining it to me?[/QUOTE] alot of quits be sure.

Garry, do you know how long the downtime will be and until it's up and running again? And thanks for the wipe its really good to clean up the map and start all over again so all the lonely wolves can play to :) And its really fun to start over again from scratch.

Thanks for the update as well as posting this directly in the forums garry :D

[QUOTE=garry;41718382]Starting this morning I'm going to be merging my branch into the server. So please anticipate... a lot of downtime .[/QUOTE] What is the estimated time for when the servers will be up for testing again? 6 hours? 12 hours? 2 days?

[QUOTE=garry;41721362]So we didn't have to bring the server down for a month[/QUOTE] what do you mean by branch? what is that? :O

there is not any estimated time servers been back up but there was a couple of issues im sure garry and his team are working hard on to getting the servers back up and running with little of a few problems as possible.

Yay, hatchet needs more love anyway :D

hey garry do you have an expected eta on wen the servers will return as i am looking to get my rust fix ?

the only day when im completely free i cant play it ;D im so lucky

[QUOTE=Sockem;41719716]new branch? Whatever does Garry mean by that?[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=thuesen207;41722072]what do you mean by branch? what is that? :O[/QUOTE] Garry is referring to multiple code branches. It's a software development term and refers to a development process where multiple different versions of the code are being worked on simultaneously and kept separate. One branch, for example, may be to refine the input handling code and improve the menu UIs. [I]Separate[/I] from that, another branch has its graphics code being heavily reworked. In the first branch, the graphics code hasn't been modified. In the second branch, the input handling and menu UI code has not been modified. Each has been taken from the same starting point and gone in a different direction. Garry made a branch a while back and has been working on it. It's now time for that branch's changes to get merged back into the main development code. This can be a bit of a messy process at times.

Now everyone gets a fair start as soon as it goes back up!

Everything should be working pretty much as expected now. Let me know in this thread if you have any problems. I added "/do suicide" - in case you get in any trouble.

[QUOTE=garry;41725571]Everything should be working pretty much as expected now. Let me know in this thread if you have any problems. I added "/do suicide" - in case you get in any trouble.[/QUOTE] Appreciate the quick fix, thank you! Just one question: Is there any workaround for the settings dialog, yet? E.g. by modifying the binary saves under %APPDATA%\Unity\WebPlayerPrefs ? I am mainly asking this because those of us with lower- and mid-spec systems haven't been able to play and test since the latest changes.

You can change the display settings using / and * on the numpad

[QUOTE=garry;41725973]You can change the display settings using / and * on the numpad[/QUOTE] I had completely forgotten about those. Thank you! I should be able to play in windowed mode now (alas for fullscreen I would need to reduce the resolution). Edit: Nevermind, found a quick and dirty workaround for the resolution settings. Just change your desktop resolution and the game should adapt in fullscreen mode.

How large is the world in Rust? I would like to know because i dont want that the world is something like flatgrass size!

[QUOTE=Teippiman;41729983]How large is the world in Rust? I would like to know because i dont want that the world is something like flatgrass size![/QUOTE] It medium sized. I'd say a comparison to Gmod is pretty hard though. It's not as big as DayZ Map but also not too small. It's hard to epxlain.

[QUOTE=Shnabub;41720589]can you guys fix the resources bug? , there are places without any 1 wooden piles ores and, there are places with like 50 wooden piles and ores and the team players going to build there base so the solo players cant play and really gather up like them.[/QUOTE] They are spawning around rad areas. And it isn't too hard to solo there. I survived on my own for around 4-5 days there. (With sevral raid attempts.)

I noticed that pigs and players are not moving smoothly through the world, they are glitching across my path. Anyone else seeing this as it makes hitting a target VERY hard?
