Staff Death Posted November 1, 2019 Staff Report Share Posted November 1, 2019 The fishing system has been recoded to make it more immerseful and dynamic as well as improving performance.

Casting times are now dynamic. Added splash animation when a fish is hooked. Improved fishing pole durability system. "Treasure chests" now appear as bags when caught. Added new modifiers while fishing. +5 chance while sitting and +5 chance while wearing a boonie hat. Preview 3 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warlord Ubba Posted November 1, 2019 Report Share Posted November 1, 2019 What is the chance system? What does +5 mean in terms of % of elite crates? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sharla.windrider Posted November 1, 2019 Report Share Posted November 1, 2019 (edited) on the last cast , if your fishing pole breaks , you have no way to real it in (dont know if thats intended or not but there it is)(i mean honestly i would just call it a guarnteed lost fish; working as intended. Overall a better system; im curious if the admin store (in pookie builds) will account for the change in minnows.

sharla.windrider Posted November 1, 2019 Report Share Posted November 1, 2019 results of fishing were as follows : with 1 fishing pole, got 4 bags (was seated and had boonie hat), got 51 fish which = 204 fish to cook, 255 bones, and 408 fat. Also, 40 minows. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff JackTapper Posted November 1, 2019 Staff Report Share Posted November 1, 2019 Ohh i like it. Any chance we can get different types of fish with random capture %. Thinking along the lines of a fishing derby that say only targets catfish one day or bass another. @sharla.windrider We will look into the minnow rates as wipe progresses. I am sure we can figure out something I am liking 100000 minnows to 1 snowball conversion but I am not good with maths. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gumby Posted November 11, 2019 Report Share Posted November 11, 2019 If your pole breaks when you catch a fish, quickly switch to a new pole and reel it in. Only time you lose a fish i s if you have no poles left Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
