Awesome, I had experiment for this kind of thing in older version of script mechanism, and somehow it could fly when stationary. Good thing to know, if it works in motion now! Update: After I tried your model, technically your ship is stationary, because once the helm activated(sail down), it fall to the sea.. oh well.. my old ship should be working then..

hahaha, oh well.. lets see in 0.9 guys.. Meanwhile, let the sharks have a snack.. "Your smell is so good! We can't resist it!" - Smiley Shark

Looking forward to this kind of event! @Ane you might need to discuss with Ylands Team, maybe you guys can come up with greater idea to fill in the gap between updates. @bb cakes don't worry, all builders always need to improve their "skill".

If @Ane read this post, she will directly to the pm, but maybe not in the weekend. Lets see in Monday.

Interesting.. Sounds good, we need this kind of things to make our community alive and more active. Your idea is supported buddy!

In-game wise, I love everything which is currently in it. Even the bug/glitch can sometimes make me laugh.. Outside the game, I love the Ylands forum community, they're funny, they can be serious, they're creative. And also don't forget about the Devs.. I would give 8 out of 10 for them, they spend time to hear and interact with the community while making new features and dealing with nasty lurking bug(it can be stressful)..

"Waiting game" is begin.. This moment remind me of legendary quote "A delayed game is eventually good, but a rushed game is forever bad." - Shigeru Miyamoto

I ask similar thing like that.. Lets see if they answer it..

Oh well.. I guess, my time zone and yours is not that far apart.. but their time zone.. I guess we need to wait until evening..

Awesome. First of all, Monday update is really wise decision. Since 0.6 as I've been actively roaming around in this community (Forum or In-game), Friday update is like nightmare in the weekend. Will wait for your detailed explaination either in Monday or future weeks. I'm looking forward for next awesome updates, keep up the awesome works, Ylands Team!

lol, thats just a joke, I'm sorry if my post (below) doesn't sounds right to you.. maybe that laugh emote doesn't strong enough to have meaning if its joking. Oh well back to the topic, since playing and to get fully discovered islands in Explore mode from scratch is takes time, I decide to just compare my old save game and your savegame with their output_logs. I tried to load my alltime singleplayer savegame (because I only play MP until now after this one), everything works fine (there are lag here and there especially when the game loading new objects which is normal for 6 years old hardware) for about 2 hours fully rediscover 11 islands, my HDD and others seems working normally as expected(no 100% HDD active time for longer than 10 seconds and no intensive Write or Read/sec from Ylands.exe, RAM is fully used, CPU working normally). And then I tried to load @Onedown's savegame, because savegame in singleplayer also works based on BI ID(like multiplayer), so I need to create new character and spawn at first island. Glad that your base is on first island and you don't activate the barrier. I'm quickly take all stuff from Onedown's character then flying around the island. I found huge tall castle there. Is it generated random structure? because I never found that one in MP. And as always, big structures demands pretty big power to load as well. I played for about 30 minutes and the game just freeze longer than 5 minutes (which is not normal). I did check the Resource Monitor, HDD shows 100% Active Time and Ylands.exe is on intensive Write or Read/sec above the System. So conclusion, something strange happen in Onedown's savegame. Good thing it's not hardware problem I guess.. Output_logs after I played in my old savegame: output_log.txt output_log_clean.txt EXPLORE2(1).rar (my old savegame) Output_logs after I played Onedown's savegame: output_log.txt output_log_clean.txt

Just to make sure, did you do that at disk where Ylands installed? If you did chkdsk to "C:" while your Ylands installed on "D:" thats explain nothing. If software only behave weird on yourself not another user, then there is something wrong on your side. Anyway everybody have their own opinion, we're here to help you and devs to make things as clear as possible, and hopefully get solution.

Daamn, while I'm absent, there is another funny pictures thread? Oh well I might need to upload aswell.. Here is from my old library " Trying to tame mutated Alpha Wolf with roasted fish "

lol, thats too much.. Software won't destroy your hardware unless the hardware already malfunction or have sign of dying. After I read your other post, try to scan your hard disk for bad sector, just to make sure everything is not hardware related, defrag will not do anything to bad sector. And my suggestion, don't use windows chkdsk(most of the time if chkdsk found bad sector, it will freeze too long), use other software like Macrorit. I know its heartbreaking , my hard disk got bad sector recently, at first I only experience the system will freeze for certain access of software/file. At the end, I realized that software and files which make system freeze is because they're literally at where bad sector detected. There are temporary solutions to save your old hard disk, feel free to PM if your hard disk have bad sector in it. Good luck!

Hmmh, it never happened to me while playing Ylands both singleplayer and multiplayer.. It happened to me when I played neighbour's game "latest realistic medieval", it's due to my potato beast hardware push really hard to it's limit (only 1 GB RAM left for OS to run and 20-40% hard disk Active Running Time left while that "latest realistic medieval" running ). Can you upload your dxdiag report here too?

Just to update current OP's condition. @Alenea said, "Hello Velocifer, Dominik, Ane and Ales Ulm… new update: I totally forgot that this laptop had a another firewall called ZoneAlarm. I thought to give it a try in uninstalling it and it worked! Problem has been resolved and our daughter is back in the business of enjoying this wonderful game! Thanks so much for your patience and help. Hope others will learn from our mistakes. Cheers all!" Note: OP's problem is solved, if you have this problem permanently try to look out for firewall/protection/network software, disable/uninstall it, then try to launch Ylands. As Ales Ulm said, this problem usually will not be permanent, keep trying..

lol, it seems like another side of my story.. I was on Polar biome, exploring whats new in there.. Out of nowhere I hear polar bear growling, suddenly she is behind me.. At that moment is where panic moment coming and I'm dead.. Respawn to first island, I found boat floating freely at shore of someone base.. "I need that boat.." in my mind said.. I never saw the owner online anymore, he might be ok if I borrow his boat.. then quickly I prepare for long sailing to polar biome, grab boat and straight to polar biome to take my old stuff.. After successfully get my old stuff back, I go back to my floating base and wait if that boat's owner come back. Until my server reset, I never see him back.. So, Thanks to whoever it's. Sorry I kinda stole your boat..

You must be an architect.. Your creativity is beyond crazy amazing.. I like that pooper.. Did you combine that with stool or something to get sitting animation?

I believe at the stable version in the future this such a thing will be available. If not by Ylands devs, then there is mod. Why not right now you may ask? Take a look at Creative mode generator, it works but has so many flaws. As you can see, currently in each big update Devs always polishing explore mode generator. No players can set its randomness, why? Oh well, there are might be big plans for that. Just wait.

@TheClockArm Awesome, I might start to do private chat to all creators whose have stuff that I used in my map. Thanks and welcome to another side of Ylands.

Hey I just got new error report with crash.dmp and error.log in it (Maybe just new directory(?)). Its located in "C:\Users\..\AppData\LocalLow\Bohemia Interactive\Ylands\Crashes" Long story short, My character got propeller pack bug, I tried "/killme" command to kill myself and see if it will fix the propeller pack issue somehow, but nope. The result is game breaking. When /killme command executed, my screen become grey but my character is freeze, can't do anything or move and dead screen don't show up. So I decided to re-login to the server, after that dead screen show up, I clicked "New Character", create character menu show up, but after that menu, my screen just flickering, if I press alt+F4 the crash notification show up.. I tried twice so I have 2 crash report. Here: Crashes.rar [Update] Oh well technically the menu does something, but not like what I was expected..

Wonderful addition! I'm getting bored with houses..

Awesome, don't push that programmers too hard, or they will have no life! Even though they already had no life.. But they're creating life! I know it's old joke..

Voted, I like it, this thread more positive than other.. even tho that makes my other suggestion lower.. All good suggestions should be up there!

And then like I said before up there ^^
