magmatrix added a comment to T115663: [.59] Gunshots.

I have noticed the same thing. I was out alone in a large field and heard loud gunshots. I assumed it was one of those lame haxx0rz flying around under the map or something, but later i realized that it was a sniper sitting on top of a building far away.

I don't get it. Why does it have to be so hard to reintroduce features that existed and worked well many years ago?? In the mod there was all sorts of vehicles and spare parts, and they never got stuck in objects or went teleporting all over the map...

magmatrix added a comment to T115046: Direction of infected sounds is static and does not change regardless of player position.

Yes, this is extremely annoying. And there are also other problems with the zombie sounds now:

  • The sounds are way too loud, and too close. If a zombie is 20 meters to the left side then the sound should not be almost equally loud in the right channel, because it makes it sound like it is really close.
  • They keep making sounds even when they are dead. The sounds always play all the way to completion.
  • Zombies now make all kinds of zombie sounds, with different volume and different voice. The female zombies sound like the male zombies and vice versa. This is really confusing when you can't hear if there is one or two zombies around the corner.

The static gunshot sounds are also really bad. If i hear a shot then i want to be able to quickly find the direction by turning a bit.

There are flying hay bales, lumber, trees, buildings, railroads, all over the map. Wouldn't it be best to just assign weight to each object and then the physics engine could solve the problem by itself by letting them drop to the ground?

The biggest problem is not the sprinting speed, it's the complete lack of inertia - you can run at full speed and then change direction instantly. This makes it almost impossible to hit someone who is running around.

This happened on at least 3 different servers the same day. When i think of it, i noticed that there were no zombies when this happened. It's like the servers stopped sending data, but my client still thought it was connected.

Try this:

I have tried this before and it worked for me. There is some small time window where you can move a little bit while it is connecting.

I was killed by hackers yesterday. They could see me from a distance when i was prone behind a wall, i could see one of the stop and look at me and then they all came my way. When i was hiding in some buildings they immediately went to the building i was in and ran up the stairs until they were just below me, etc. They clearly could see through walls and stuff.

Two days earlier i was killed by a guy who just walked through the wall and axed me.

May 10 2016, 9:14 PM · DayZ
magmatrix added a comment to T96718: [Suggestion] Clothes should have splitted slots.

The correct way would be to substitute pockets for slots, and then give each pocket a volume/weight capacity. Then it should be possible to put any amount of items in there as long as the total weight/volume is not exceeded for that pocket.

You could put a screw driver and some shotgun shells in one of the pockets in your pants, a can of beans in another, or two tuna cans (since they are flat and takes up less volume), lots of bandages in a leg pocket, etc...

You would have to put one big object in a pocket and then fill it up with other smaller items. Harder to keep track of stuff, more realistic.

For pockets without a zipper or button, things could fall out when doing hard maneouvers like hitting the ground, vaulting, etc (small things more likely to fall out - like 50x .22 bullets... so that would create an incentive to keep thinks in their boxes).

When clothes are damaged, some pockets would be more damaged than others. The more damaged, the more likely bgger things will fall out of it (because there are bigger holes in the pocket), even if it has a zipper or buttons.

You can ususally take stuff on top of the lockers if you have enough room in inventory or on your body. I.e. if you have full inv and a hat on, you will not be able to take a helmet. Drop the hat and you will get the "Pick up helmet" option...

If inventory is full, then it would be better if it said something like "Take in hands" if your hands are empty, or "Inspect helmet" if not.

magmatrix added a comment to T94004: Emptying an ammo box doesnt put the bullets in your inventory.

Ideally the ordering would be user configurable, so if you think that "pick up" is bad (because it makes it easier to pick up stuff by mistake and wreck your carefully thought out inventory management) then you could put "inspect" first.

And if you prefer to just drink sodas (or desinfectant) right away, then you could put "Use" first in the list....

May 10 2016, 7:38 PM · DayZ
magmatrix added a comment to T94004: Emptying an ammo box doesnt put the bullets in your inventory.

I actually don't think this is a bug, but it is a bad default action in the UI.

Being able to discard things is useful, because you can make sure nobody else can use it. If you discard all the 7.62x51 you find then u make it much harder for people with a Mosin or Blaze to find ammo, which might save your life.

However, the default actions in the UI is horrible. Let's say you are in a hurry and just press middle mouse button quickly to pick something up and instead you end up discarding ammo you needed, or stopping to drink a soda by accident when you are being chased by zombies. Or the worst of all, "oh a disinfectant spray, lets pick it up" <click> oops "Drink disinfectant"... (yes, i once did that mistake).

Dangerous actions (eat/drink/empty etc) should never be the default. Instead the order could be changed to "Pick up, Inspect, Take into hands, Use/Eat/Drink/Empty/etc". That way, "inspect" would be the worst case - and you can just hit Esc to get out of it immediately so it's not deadly even if you have a zombie jumping at you. Take into hands is more dangerous since it interferes with weapon handling and other stuff.

magmatrix added a comment to T88150: displacement of objects.

Wouldn't it be easy (or at least not that hard) to just write a script to check the position of all items (and optionally adjust them), instead of asking users to specify the locations of each one of the thousands of misplaced ones?

for item in (haybales trashbins trees stumps bushes ...)
do

if (item.position.bottom > ground.level.at(item.position)) then
  print "Item $item is floating in the air, fixing it"
  item.position.moveBottomTo(ground.level.at(item.position)
fi

done

Ok, it has to be a check to see if anything else is under it and if the ground is uneven and so on, but you get the idea...

The right click and space bar system is a bit broken. It would probably be better not to have two separate modes, but one mode with multiple steps/variations instead.

A quick fix could be to have a small icon show which settings are active, because in some cases/some stances/some items you don't see any difference between optic/not optics and attack/not attack. Or it should revert to "normal" automatically when switching weapons/items, and/or it shouldn't be possible to enter "optics" with e.g. fists...

I think this also has something to do with "attack mode" (space bar) and "optics mode" (right click). When the problem starts, i usually (at least sometimes) can fix the problem by hitting spacebar and/or right click before trying again.
