    Dev Diary #12

    I see exactly where you are coming from On the other hand, I'm planning on hosting a thriving community on my dedicated server. It would be pretty harsh to penalize me for not hosting through you guys. Unless you guys can offer same server specs for the same price (which I honestly doubt, since there is an extra layer in between the hosting party and the buying party which has to spend time and thus cost money). What would happen if I would...

    Could people still donate/give coyns to private hosted servers, not hosted through you?

    Very valid point! I've played on loads of servers over the years and now I've got a job I feel like it's my time to give back to a community, that's why I'm paying for hosting now There are quite a few people/groups just like me who will do the same, fully free of cost! It's friday here as well, enjoy your weekends And I'm looking forward to it! Painting stuff is one of the things we need most, as well as those additional shapes This is gonna make our builds...

    Hey Ales, thanks for the reply! (Also to Myrik and chivas!) For the copyrights I'm still not sure how you are going to implement this in a satisfying way: say for example someone builds my boat, you probably protect that build so that they can't resell it. What would happen if they were to buy it, place it in a world, then build a replica OR a copy in a different colour? How much do things have to be different in order for them to be considered different builds? ...

    I'm not so much after pay to play, more curious whether Bohemia allows people to play for certain rights like "premium players" only have access to build on certain Islands on the server or get free resources. I myself would only be accepting donations with no return, as I feel that players already paid for the game, but if servers will allow 100+ people and cost will go up massively I too will have to think about a way to pay the bills Regarding the workshop:...

    Would people who don't rent/host in Coyns also have the option of accepting coins, either as donations or in trade for certain privileges/items? There has been a lot going on for Arma 2/3 monetizing. Regarding the whole Coyns plan: in my job we've got the acronym KISS, keep it simple stupid I think the Coyns system (or at least to make it work properly) is very complicated and takes away the simplicity of Ylands. I think all the initial goals of monetizing...

    Hey Ales! Thanks for the update. I'm not 100% convinced yet this is something I'm happy with, and I've also got a load of questions: What happens if I sell my boat for example, and someone decides to buy it, then resells or rebuilds it and resells that for less? Will we have some form of copyrights? I've spent some time in designing items in second life, only to have them copied/ripped off, which means all my hard work was pretty much gone. Also, it's very...

    One doubt about the game

    I'm not sure if thats the right option since there is a loss of items if I'm right. This can also be used to grief and accidental missclicks can be nasty again! Adrie

    Propellar pack renders boats/ships useless?

    You can't live on your propellor pack either can you? You can't have any workshops on there, you can't carry other people, you can't carry cars on it etc. The list goes on and on!

    YLands Offical Dev server - Can this be a thing?

    Thanks for the reply! Will there be a whitelisting system for other servers soon? I'm looking forward to such kind of system since a password isn't waterproof

    YLands Offical Dev server - Can this be a thing?

    Does that mean we get a hotfix before the 0.5 patch?

    YLands Offical Dev server - Can this be a thing?

    When the next update fixes multiplayer I'm hosting my 24/7 professionally hosted server again! It's got absolute top notch parts and connection, it doesnt lag at all

    Decoration Packs - Anyone interested?

    Honestly I don't see a problem with this at all, I believe the way you made it is exactly what compositions are for. I'm all for simple yet stunning compositions with good attention to detail

    Well done, they look very nice!

    Suggestion: Asia DLC Island

    Sorry for spoiling, but there's quite a nice samurai kit in there already And with the current map options a Mt. Fuji can be made, albeit at a slightly smaller scale

    Explore server experiences/requirements

    Sounds fair to make it an option Although without any whitelisting on a server all crops will be gone from starterisland within half a second

    RESOLVED Server Monitor and Game

    Heya! No problem, I like helping everyone with their Ylands On my hosted server I didn't as this is pro hosted. To set up the ports though, you have to choose 2 DIFFERENT ports, doesn't matter which. For example try 2078 and 2079. If you google "port forwarding" + your routers type you will find out how to do the forwarding. Hope this helps! Adrie

    RESOLVED Server Monitor and Game

    It's a known bug/feature, you can't run both at the same time unfortunately!

    Am I finished? [SPOILERS]

    Be sure to look out for driftwood and other flotsam There's a completely new world to discover below the sea!

    Am I finished? [SPOILERS]

    Assuming you play the explore scenario: Who says crafting is the way to go? I'll give you a little hint: you're gonna find it where you would use it. To get it you need to be an expert potion brewer I'm sure that on your quest to finding it you'll come across way more nice things! Adrie

    Am I finished? [SPOILERS]

    As far as I know there's no way to obtain those items, just like the creator cube! Have you gotten yourself a nice set of diving gear already? Adrie

    Some block types for building

    You can make the inner corners if you first place 1 block on grid and then clip the 2nd block into the first one with free place mode. In community creations I've made a topic on how to do this

    And don't forget there are quite a few explosives in the game as well

    Thanks for reassuring Ylands is going in what many of us think is the right direction Really happy to see that the right priorities are there! Adrie

    Adrie's server

    Hey guys! I'm temporarily shutting the server down until next hotfix/patch, because as it is now it just freezes too often, which leads to disappointment among players. As soon as we can play some playermade scenario's or the servers are fixed I will be back for some coop ylands fun! Adrie
