6Cowa6Bunga6 55 Posted January 5, 2018 does anyone know how to prevent dying from starvation when you go offline. if the protective barrier will stop this from happening or not. or even if there are other ways around it. otherwise ill have to figure something out after logging off when i venture off from the starter island Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
See_Sharp 13 Posted January 5, 2018 Log off while you're in the field of an active protective barrier generator. That does not solve the problem if you move from island to island. . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Whane The Whip 99 Posted January 5, 2018 (edited) Yeah this is an issue for me as I island hop looking for a place to call home. It will also be an issue for me after I find a place to settle because I don't want to be pinned down to one location. And in MP, a PB is neon sign that attracts griefers.

kimbuck 746 Posted January 6, 2018 Build a fake base.... use it as a decoy for griefers...surround it with traps etc... I am sure would be griefers would be hesitant to grief my base after several forced re-spawns. They might succeed eventually.... ...... but it would be no loss to me and a waste of time and bandwidth to them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
6Cowa6Bunga6 55 Posted January 6, 2018 has anyone put a protective barrier on a boat yet? i though about doing it but havent gotten around to having a good enough boat to put one on it im not sure if its even possible. but having a main base on a boat can be risky if you end up loosing the hull Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I tried it already. You can in fact "place" the PB, but you cannot activate it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheUrbanSquatch 6 Posted January 6, 2018 I believe he Devs have said that the starvation thing will be addressed in the next update. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Whane The Whip 99 Posted January 6, 2018 (edited) Also, you can log off while inside any active protective barrier, not just your own. I just tested this last night and this afternoon I'm still alive, fed, and with full health. Edited January 6, 2018 by Whane Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
