Question regarding the map size limitation, why exactly is there a size limitation? Isn't it simple enough to use a system similiar to Minecraft or GTA where you only load chunks within a certain radius of the player and use a simple fog FX? Realistically the only large items you'd need to load past 500m would be large structures and trees (and even trees can be downgraded to simple rectangles when exceeding a distance beyond 2km.) Also, thank you so much for the mass pick up system. This is incredibly useful, especially early game exploration. Will it be possible to disable it for multiplayer? I can see certain abuse cases happening with it..

completely forgot tbh...

@Adam Snellgrove For things related to multiplayer tools, I think keeping things as simple as possible is the best solution. While people like me are comfortable dragging maps into editor making tweaks and then re-publishing the map, casual players definitely need an easy/convenient way to "fix" their maps. A good UI hub would go a LONG way to helping casual players set up basic stuff.

Island Difficulty) I don't think the issue is the stats but rather the monsters. They are very easy and predictable, even the strongest monster can be killed by abusing position. They need to make enemies more unpredictable, smarter and force the player to fight enemies "fairly". Items) I think the issue is that many "essential" items overlap in terms of usage which makes build progression confusing. We don't need 30 different weapons, we need 5 different weapons with clear strengths/weaknesses. Minecraft did this in an excellent way by providing tiers (stone, iron, diamond, etc) for pickaxe, swords, etc. I think we should downsize all items in general and try to simplify the games core such as getting crafting stations going, etc. Only after providing the player challenging options (NO GATCHA) if they want to exceed those limitations but making them "worth it". For example, if the player wants to upgrade their gun they need to upgrade their crafting station by gathering unique items found from treasure maps, killing bosses, etc. Giving tier upgrades seems a much simpler way to do this rather than creating 30 unique weapons that are extremely similar imo.

I'd like to see pets have a real usage with unique strengths and/or weaknesses. Rather than being able to switch them whenever we want, I think we should encourage players to "bond" with the pet and give advantages for patient players. Things we should do - Create ways to invest in pets (feeding them food, petting them, etc) - Create unique, small advantages that can be appreciated. Ex: An Owl pet lets you temporarily activate a buff that grants night vision. A Penguin gives you a small warmth buff while in cold regions. etc. - Make pets more relevant in the Ylands universe. Make the player WANT to stay with the same pet across multiple Yland Worlds, games, etc. (Ex: Let pet choices affect multiplayer games) Things we shouldn't do - Have pets give free resources for playing the game in a normal way (Ex: crafting resource return bonus) - Make it optimal to switch pets often Edit: I'd like to see an Imp or a Devil type pet.

Feels too niche tbh. Most players wouldn't need that in standard explorer mode.

I've worked a lot with trigger zones, this is a bug. (But I have already accepted it) It has to do with zones being considered transparent but also over-riding each others visibility when superimposed on one another.

After attempting to link my BI account to my steam account, I lost coyns, content and even my account name which I cannot reclaim again. I contacted BI support and they game me this message. I have to tell them what THEY lost? I am not upset, I am furious.

You can blame the devs for making the trigonometric functions not calculate in radians

If you *badly* want PI to a high degree of precision, it could be written as OR you can use PIfast (Im too lazy to write it myself) though, writing it in code would be hella difficult! Imo, just copy paste the number and save yourself the headache... ?

This is pretty quality shit posting ngl.

Hello I'm a long-time user and am interested in collaborating with someone to create a game. I have lots of experience creating scripts and environments. Below are some examples of my work. If you are interested in working together, please contact me.

@Mello1223Which discord channel do they use?

Really impressed, I hope it turns out as good as I'm expecting

Yes. If you give me an exact explanation of what you need, I could make something for you.

For anyone wondering, the torches are used as reference points for the nodes. FAQ: Is it compatible by making your own set of points? Yes! Can it be used to ray-trace on terrain to create a Path on an island? Yes! Can you change the track style to a different object? Yes! How long did it take you? 1 Evening Is the rollercoaster adjustable? Yes, you can change the radius, delta radius, height, delta height, # of nodes, etc.

If anyone's got an idea, I'd be happy to collaborate with them

Hello, even though I don't come here often, there is a function I would REALLY like access to... Infact, I asked it about 2 years ago - Get Aim This function essentially takes the Ray Cast Option and applies it to the player's camera. It's extremely useful as we could make custom spells and use it to "see" what the player is looking at. Ex: Is the player looking at a house? You already have the function to preview camera so this shouldn't be an issue anymore... Additionally make skills available to "force cast" similar to an emote. This will give us greater flexibility when making custom spells. Thanks?

I'm attempting to give players the ability to repair an object in which they perform a "hammer the object" animation. However I'd like to "force" the player to visually hold a hammer while performing the animation (without them physically having to carry one). Is this possible?

It's a bit inconvenient not having these functions fully independent, but I understand why you'd set it up that way. Could we consider making the skills function more intuitive to use? I'm having a lot of difficulty getting Fully Body and Upper Body motions to work the way I expect them to work and often have bugs such as small scroll bar no scroll bar Transition bar (red line) doesn't move when playing the skill Can't seem to find the "dash" animation, that players would do when trying to roll using a heavy weapon. Did it get removed entirely from the game?

I could make AI for pirate ships, however players landing on an enemy ship make this scenario significantly more difficult to code. If you have any alternative solutions for what an enemy ship should do when it's boarded in 1v1 and 1v9 situations then I could implement a solution.

When I created games I usually used screenshots in-game but having the option to create customizable images would be greatly appreciated. I hope that before games get to use it's official thumbnail, the picture is audited to make sure graphically offensive material is filtered away.

@Oliver Hope Hey Oliver The way you want to do it is like this. Group 1: Objects + Reference point (at joint location for child.) Group 2: Child Set Group 1 to rotate Set Group 2, to rotate around the reference point FROM PARENT, located at the joint location connecting Group 1 to Group 2. MAKE SURE TO SET REFERENCE POINT INTERNAL ROTATION TO 0,0,0 MAKE SURE YOUR GROUP 2 PIVOT IS LOCATED AT REFERENCE POINT BEFORE: After:

They should also consider making the oceans more dangerous, right now 1/3 the time is spent exploring islands and hardly any risk when using a boat.

@Oliver Hope You have to check how your animation is moving. There are several options to move relative to the world or to the parent....
