My (and many others) usual auto lights build : 2 solars, facing East --> Root combiner 2 solars, facing West --> Root combiner 1 Root combiner (combining the previous two) That one goes in the Electrical Branch Branch out goes in the Blocker's Block Passthrough (no power config change needed) Power out of the Branch into the Battery Power out of the Battery into the Blocker Power out of the Blocker into lights With that you should have plenty of power for many many lights, no windmill needed. Works with just 2 solars of course, but I like to put 4 just to be safe. Since they nerfed the weather though, it's not that necessary anymore. So long as you wait for your battery to be charged before you start plugin' away! (and don't create shadows over solars with your build later on...) 💡 TIP : Placing 1/4 walls around the solar panels will make lights turn on a little quicker at dusk, and turn off a little later at dawn.

I also miss having the first skin on the left being the one currently used, and then having the most recent ones you've used after that.

Would be pretty useful to have the skin's name when we hover over the icon. If you're trying to have a set it's not always clear which is which (like is that the hoodie that's supposed to go with this kit? Is that the AK from the same skin set? etc.)

Ah finally, we get to see what you really look like! I would have imagined a couple years younger, but I was pretty close.

@Death can we pin this please? It becomes harder and harder to find through search every time someone adds a "SIL" topic.

Apartment Complex is a bit ridiculous loot wise it turns out. WAY too much loot. People can make10K + in a short time. You can go loot the rooms in one building, then do the other, and before your even done loot starts to respawn on the other side...

Chat GPT at work.

Would be useful, we're having connection issues right now and only way to connect is through console. Apparently only to find out what the IP address is is through Battlemetrics? Would be good to be able to copy/paste it from Connect page.

Everything, at least for subs, seems to listed as free once you click on an item :

Is "Moo-Viper X" you or... ??

Wow, very interesting structure! Looks like something out of Conan Exiles (well, without the cow smut), love it!

I've gotten her skull before. Not voluntarily though....

If that "joke" was that word...

But @Deathwhat about Apartments?!?! (lol. jk)

Would it be possible while in the black market UI to have ESC exit the market, rather than go to the game menu?

Death posted this on Discord back in November, but Discord posts tend to be forgotten about, even if pinned. So I wanted to put it up over here because it helped me a lot and I only followed a few of the many many tips in that video :

Boooo Vault-TEC !! Bring back Apartments!

I also had this happen with a polar bear, bout a week ago, just like in Cartmon's vid.

I dunno about attracting players to servers... I participate in open events on any server, but I'm not gonna switch from US Pure to say AU Survival because of an event. The server type and location pretty much decides where you play, not events. In my opinion, events serve as a way to maintain player interest, not as a way to get people to join a server. And they don't attract new players, they are an "internal" affair. I don't see how participating in an event on a custom server would "draw me away" from the server I usually play on, especially since it's not a server I can play on other than during an event (so there's no "internal cannibalism" here, the server is for events only, it won't take players away from their servers). I also don't see why a custom map made for a specific event would be necessary. Wanna make a horse race track? Find a flat and large enough area, put stone barricades in the shape of an oval in the middle, wooden barricades on the sides, and stand for spectators, done. You can't do that on a normal server, those flat spaces will all be taken up by players (or if it's not then you don't wanna take em anyways since that will prevent players from building there). Same thing for a car jump, that ramp is not something you wanna leave lying around, as it will cause headaches for admins if players use it and end up going through the map, as well as taking up a lot of space and blocking the way. A dedicated server solves those issues and, simply put, "allows for more". Also, having a custom map for one specific event kinda defeats the purpose, since the idea is to enable admins to design multiple events on the same island. So while someone is making a horse race track, another can create a rock climbing event on the tallest mountain, while others build a "Pyramid descent" elsewhere, and so on. A dedicated server would allow admins to push the limits and surely do things they couldn't do before on a "live" server.

Yes I know some of these have taken place. But in all those events admins were limited as to where they could build, how big, etc., as to not have an effect on active players. I've also been to many events where night/day became an issue, Karen shows up uninvited, etc. Imagine having an entire island to set up on, where one could build for an event on the coast, while others on top of a mountain, an other admin builds a race track in the desert, and so on. All of it undisturbed, anywhere you want, as "big" as it needs to be, doesn't have to be "built in a day" sorta speak, no need to remove it afterwards.

Simply put, a server where admins could plan events, prepare, build, all without worrying about space, players, performance, dropped loot, etc. This would open the entire map for admins, and conjure up new ideas that basically weren't possible before. Custom maps could even be used, like on Elysium, so that specific events could take place (road that allows for a race around the map, huge mountain like last wipe, etc.). And with no pesky active players to worry about, changes could be made on the fly for the event (change day/night, call in 40 Karens, etc.). Ideas off the top of my head : Car race around the map The Karens are coming! (mountain top base, defend it at all cost against wave after wave of Karens) Horse racing track (all thoroughbreds obviously) Boat rally Snow mobile race Treasure hunt in scrappies (pilots register beforehand, each assigned to a team) Or simply team treasure hunt on horses Car jumping (huge ramp, sedans, 3 tries each, longest jump wins) Harbour Takeover (TONS of though NPCs, 10 mins to take em all out and takeover Harbour) Drag racing course Team raids (30mins to build, PvP turned on, last base still with TC wins) Rock climbing (first to reach top of a huge mountain wins) Medieval battlefield (choose archer or knight? Two clans meet on an open field, war!) I could go on ...
