    As for limited use items, such as the decorations are right now, I don't like the idea. If it was a 1 time transaction, I think they would fare better. Like bb cakes mentioned something like the Sims packs I think would work better. Maybe design a themed pack, and allow that pack to be purchased, but the purchaser would have unlimited use of those items. Of course worrying about other players gaining them through means of copying Compositions is a problem, you could program a check list to see if that player has that pack before they grab that Composition. If you made building materials that way, I think you'd have a bigger problem and make players upset, but decorations would be great for this. Like a Halloween theme pack. Maybe a jack-o-lantern, scarecrow, and those sort of things as the decoration pack, but once purchased, the purchaser has access to it forever...not limited use. Your big comfy chair would sell I'm sure...as I want to be able to make them on my Server. Maybe even make it so it's now craftable, not a just here's the item; make it like a recipe and you can now build it in game.

    Btw, Pets are awesome, I have my flying Pig that I found on the Official Servers. Any chance of wiping those servers to allow players to have another run at gaining those? You could also do an "Easter Egg hunt" of sorts for other items, like maybe a rare decoration, as I'm sure you noticed an increase of people playing Official Servers when you released the Pets.

    I also thought it could be interesting to have, from time to time, some of the team members talk about the things they're working on, so that you get an idea of who works in Ylands and who's working on what.

    This is a GREAT idea Ane! I also do recognize 6 of the shown compositions/games in the photo, though 3 are duplicates. Looks and sounds like a great idea Tomas!

    Stout Crusher here, I have FINALLY found the Flying Boar Pet! I will be releasing a YouTube Spoiler Alert video showing what the Random Site looks like and where to find it.

    (currently it's about 1 in 4 or 5 ylands - so yes, it's meant to be rare :) )

    I don't think Ales meant 1 in every 4 or 5 Ylands, but 1 in every 4 or 5 Official Dedicated Servers. Hopefully that will help everyone with finding their own Flying Boar Pet. Good Luck!

    P.S. If you don't want to know what the site looks like, then don't watch the video. =P

    Just curious. My Server went down for a day, though nothing was changed on my end. Logic Servers said that it was no longer registering to the host on Ylands, as the name of my server was 6 characters too long. But I see no mention anywhere of 30 characters being mentioned. Much less, I've had it at 40 characters on your last update and had no problem. So, I'm wondering if they are blowing smoke.

    Also, we have had a problem occur on my server that I have never seen before. Any reason that you can determine as to why this happened? He is next to the Ship, but this is all he could see, so shouldn't be a render problem.

    Hi Dev's just a quick question and 1 bug report. 

    My ship hull has disappeared twice and makes me relog.

    And, have the desk wooden blocks ( I can't remember the updated name you gave them) been removed or renamed again? Wanted to use them.

     

    Cheers

    Would it not be more like a Wyvern? Because you did say a Pet...I can't imagine you would let a player control a full on Dragon. As for Boss fights, I think the Kraken or Dragon would be great. I mean we could just go all Witch like and have Flying Monkeys...it was popular for a certain movie with a certain Witch. =P

    Even with a parked ship (anchor down), I get tossed around while trying to walk on the ship. Go through a door and I'm transported to another part of the ship, not even in line with where I was going. While activating contact with the Helm, the game zooms way out and zooms back in to only a head at the helm. Let go of the Helm and sometimes you are knocked off the ship, while the ship sails away. Those are the known ship problems I've seen. I have yet to see the Ship turn black since the update, but more people will find them out in time. I will try to record an outing on a ship and post the link here to the video, so you can see what happens while on a ship. I will use Single Player so it shouldn't be a latency issue. Thank you Devs for all the hard work. I can't wait to make a Hunger Games style Map. =)

    You didn't get extra coyns for linking the accounts, only those who purchased the game before it was out on Steam received the total of 9200 (I'm assuming this is not your case).

    Dang, you're right. I read that report so many times, and can't see how I could have missed it all those times. Yet, there it is midway through the 1st paragraph. Duh! LOL!

    I didn't find out about the game until you could no longer buy into it from the website. But picked up the Trial and made of video on Dec 3rd of the Alpha Trial. Then picked up the game on Dec 6th on Steam. It's funny going back and watching those videos; using a knife to harvest the fur and meat. Hard to believe it's been 7 months. Great Game! =)

    Thanks for the response.

    I got a non-working workstation and no way to remove it. 

    You can go into the Editor, delete the messed up Blueprint Machine, then click Un-Do at the top in the Editor. It works for the people on my Server, unless they place more than 1 Blueprint Machine down trying to "fix" it themselves. It seems like the "placement" of the machine isn't always "connected" to the Blueprint. I hope this helps you. Take care.

    Please note that we’re always ready to fix any problems you may encounter, be it related to your game name, coyns

    I still don't have the Coyns from the beginning (December 14th, 2017), when we were supposed to get double the 4600 Coyns, equal to 9200. I still only received the initial 4600. I did contact ya'll back then like the News feed said, but never heard anything. My account is linked and has been since then. Thank you for your time, btw Love the Game!

    I bought the game mounths ago and still works like s**T.In some parts of the island I have 30 fps ,in others 100+.is unplayble.

    There is an issue with some spawned trees, or the destroyed Church building, the one with the front section broken in half and laying on the ground. I find I have better FPS by going into the Editor, making sure the broken Church isn't in my world, if it is, I delete it. Then I delete all the trees, it is time consuming. When you run a server, getting it to last longer than a few days is priority, doing this is a necessity. In the rare moments you are running around in a forest and all the sudden FPS sky rockets, there's more than likely a glitched tree somewhere. Sadly, to find it means deleting all the trees in the area, but if you're in the Editor, then just delete every tree and place new ones so you know this isn't an issue. Players will chop the few trees you placed and make forested areas on their own. Now the issue on the Coast or out in the Ocean are flying Sharks, when you see one, just kill it, this will help your FPS rates. Also, Horses are an issue, don't ride them, just kill them. Lastly, Ships...I think Ships are broken right now due to the grandness people build on them. Having 1 Ship near you that is built up with a lot of parts seems to kill FPS rates. To resolve this issue, we all use Propeller Packs and no Ships, we do still use Rafts and Boats.

    If you don't think this all helps, StoutCrusher & Friends S8 (Dallas) has been up since 18 April, that's over 1 month!

    I'm excited by a better combat system. I plan on making a kind of Hunger Games Scenario, so the Combat System does need to be better.

    Allowing Water to be used and transported sounds very much needed too.

    That you'd like to add NPC Factions, as in.. actual humanoid npcs we can fight. So I suppose that would mean Bandits, Pirates, Guards etc. (I still think pirate NPCs on the sea would be amaaaazing)

    I TOTALLY AGREE!

    Will the crystals have any more use? Maybe I could link them in the weapons to make them more powerful? Fire, ice, electricity ...

    Let’s just wait till the next Explore world is released and see, shall we?

    This sounds very interesting as well.

    I can't wait for the new update! Thank you for all your hard work.

    My server just started having this issue yesterday. I glitched the top of my propeller into some gravel that I built up, even after a 20 min rollback, we are having issues with the server dropping after locking up the players on the server. All players have to exit the game from the Task Manager and I have to reboot the server, only for it to continue crashing now. It totally crashed and created a crash.dmp and error file. I have included those as well as the change_log files. I hope these files help. I think I have to wipe the server to correct this error so we can all play again. I even too the game file to the editor after the roll back to make sure no one else caused this issue, and everyone seems fine. To my dismay, we are still having the server lock up and drop and the crash.dmp happened today after rebooting the server again. I was the only player in the game.

    Okay, well the crash.dmp file won't allow me to send it to you. The next 2 files are the DsLog and DsLog_clean from the server. The next 2 are from my own account.

    I also included the url to my youtube when this happened as I was making a video, you can clearly see the glitched propeller pack in the gravel ground @ 27:12 is when this happens, and @27:37 you see why. I also had the FPS up when this happened.

    I hope all this information helps you all greatly with tracking down the issue. Thank you. Love the game!

    what issues need to be fixed

    The Whisper command still does not work. You can even stand next to one another, and it still does not work.

    It would be really handy if say, myself (the server host) would like to warn everyone that the server will be restarting in x minutes.

    These files are from my personal account, not the server, unless they are connected. After the reboot, we had even more problems...people's Protective Barriers have disappeared. More players are now having connection issues and not able to join in the game. I normally wipe the server and start over. I have done this multiple times in the past 2-3 months. Only once have I ever had a server that I pay for not have this issue. If you need more info let me know, I am now notified of the replies on this thread. I could also make another video and share it to you. Thank you for your time, and take care.

    Can you get back to us if the issues are still happening after the reboot? If so, please attach these files: output_log and output_log_clean, you can find them in the directory \Program Files(86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Ylands\Ylands_Data.
