It will be included in the Exploration DLC.

So in the next update creatures will be able to attack the player even though he's on a horse.

So I have refunded your Coyns and changed your name. Let me know, if it's all fine. We are still looking into the MP bug.

It makes us all sad, but it was a technical/Unity necessity. We are working on a way to combat this though.

Thank you for the info. I'm looking into both issues. Will try to inform you ASAP.

There used to be a 1st person mode, but it was very time consuming making everything works both for 1st and 3rd person, so we had to take it out. We are discussing ways to put it back in, but if it's done, we want to do it properly (which will take time). Thank you for the feedback.

We are getting an overall fix for it ready and hopefully it should be fine with the next update. For the Lobby one, could you please send in output_logs when this happens @Kraygon? I'll log it anyway, but the logs could help finding out, what's going on in the background.

They probably should get to it this week. They do have a back log of similar cases. But if they don't contact you by Thursday @Kraygon, hit me up here and I'll try and get it moving a bit faster.

There isn't an official one, but I plan on making a kind of...Ylands Newspaper, which would hint at the setting and story ? But that's a bit down the line.

Sorry Deadeye_Rob, is this still happening?

Nah, it should be the new one, just differently priced, so it has to be now bought fresh and then it will be fine to extend ?

So it seems this is a broader Unity issue ? Unfortunately there's nothing we can do with it from our end ? Just hope they fox it soon. We'll send in our findings, maybe that'll help. https://forum.unity.com/threads/directx-errors-after-update-error-only-occurs-in-unity-games.567658/

Actually could have some news soon, even though it's been dragging like a monstrous desert slug.

Yep, so in that case it had to be an 'old' server from before 1.0. If you get a new one, it should be fine to extend.

These guys can help you @xxSyngelicxx to get your stuff back: https://support.bohemia.net/ Let me know, if they got it fixed for ya.

Thank you for the scenario, we are looking into it ?

So it is possible to extend the server through this button, but we'll look at adding a renew button to already expired servers too. We are also looking at automatic renewals, though those would work only with linked accounts, so we can warn players through email, that their servers are about to get renewed. P.S. It's possible you couldn't extend the server, because it was a server from before 1.0 which were different and thus not possible to renew. Any servers bought now should be fine to extend.

I'll ask about that and see, if we're planning on making that a possibility (would be pretty helpful imo).

Then wait, what support come up with and see, if that helps.

Did you contact bistudio support? I think these guys can help you with it: https://support.bohemia.net/ If not, I'll try something from our end but I think these know what to do...

Could you please send the scenario, where this is happening? Would help a lot.

Every week we'll bring you an Ynterview with a member of our Ylands team. In this week's Ynterview we talk to one of our wizarding programmers, that through a series of incantations keep the game working, Xeniya Vondrášková! First off, what do you do here at the Ylands team and what'd you do before you joined? I'm a gameplay programmer and previously I also worked in the gamedev industry in a smaller Czech indie studio. In fact, I've never worked anywhere else than in the gamedev industry. How long have you worked on Ylands? What was the 1st thing you worked on when you joined? In February I will have worked here for 4 years. The first thing I worked on, if I remember correctly, was the first ragdoll iteration. What do you find most exciting on Ylands in general? I really like the options the game provides, that you can do almost anything in it. From time to time, I browse the Workshop and I'm amazed by all the things that players are able to create in the game. And what is for you the most exciting feature coming in the near future? I'm personally looking forward to a working water simulation. Waterfalls would be really awesome. What are you working on right now? We're still improving the general AI, but I personally mostly concentrate on NPCs now. Also, I - as almost everyone else in the team - do polishing and bug fixing here and then. What was the most difficult thing to implement to date? I don't think there are easy things to implement, but if I had to choose the most memorable ones, that would for me probably be the recent AI overhaul and the new combat mechanics. What do you do in your free time? I'm a passionate gamer (I love epic RPGs where you have to save the world or, preferably, the whole universe and everything that lies beyond) and apart from video games, I also enjoy playing board and pen and paper games. I like reading as well, mostly fantasy, sci-fi and murder mysteries. Would you rather spend a holiday in Greece with a really chatty ostrich or go to Starbucks with George Clooney (he will be moaning, that you didn't go get a Nespresso instead)? Why? That's an easy one - definitely Greece with the ostrich because I love travelling so much that I could easily survive a chatty ostrich (even the chattiest one).

So the server was refunded and you have it till tomorrow if you need to get some files off of there etc.

So we have fixed this and it should be fine in the next update ?

Private Dedicated servers are no longer supported (as it was 'only' an experimental feature). You can get dedicated servers from the marketplace and in the future we are making arrangments with Nitrado, so people will be able to get a server with anything they need directly from them.
