I’m all for more friction in Outbreak, and rednecks are a fun way to do that (because rednecks are fun)

My only concern is if you’re an IC lead somewhere that should be your commitment. An IC leader of two factions on two sims with similar busy times is going to be shirking responsibility at one end or the other at some point. How are you going…[Read more]

That’s good Rick, let us know how it goes, Nadir checks in here regularly when he’s doing fixy bits so hopefully he’ll see if your problem is continuing!

Can we ask about why we can’t ask about zombie genitalia?

If you don’t want to play the hud-game, don’t play it. Nobody’s forcing you to Rick.

On the no sign thing, you can click and hold on the health indicator on the HUD for about 5 seconds (maybe longer) and you’ll get a message saying it’s resetting/updating. See if that helps!

Love the story Jaison, looking forward to seeing you on sim!

I’m sure the AES will be able to put your medical training to good use if that’s the way you want to go!

Hi Kashmir,

Welcome to the sim! Don’t worry too much about your English, your post reads well enough for sure.

I’m feeling a lot of empathy for your character already, hopefully things will turn up for her now she’s on Arklay!

Best of luck with your story, don’t hesitate to be in touch if you have any problems.

Rain.

I think this may be lent better to the idea of an IC market. There’s a bunch of players who were hunters pre-ob, understandably seeing as that lends itself very well to the survivalist skillset, it would be great to see some sort of set-up where all the characters were able to move the critters they’d managed to bag that day, rather than having…[Read more]

Had my first combat encounter using the HUD yesterday with Arya Adasia, I was stood in the hospital and I believe I actually healed some shortly afterwards. Logged in this morning and was idly clicking through the HUD to notice I have lost my entire dollar balance. Hoping it’s possible to get this re-instated, along with the error looked at!

Thanks, Bill.

We’d discussed having a radio stream previously, but a more approachable, usable theme for the radio might be to have little text-based broadcasts that go out, even potentially with a scripted radio around the place to broadcast these? That way it adds a scarcity of information, some hearing a broadcast, others not, gives people something to…[Read more]

You completely missed the point of the healing element of my story Logan. The point is that even without all the ftb nonsense we are talking -days- not hours for minor injuries to heal completely, and therefore demanding an insta-heal in the hospital is the unrealistic aspect, not having to take maybe an IC day out of RP to recover from serious…[Read more]

May I propose more simply, seeing as we were a resort island, just a tourist map, with arrows marking out each place? Saves on the need for everyone having to arrive via mysterious stranger, and I imagine it’s a hell of a lot easier to implement with just having separate arrows for each teleport ^^

I think almost everything above has been well covered, but one point I think could be adressed not better, but differently, is the common complaint about healing times.

Players here, especially the ones knocking the healing times, often bring up the flashword ‘realism’ in their arguments. I am going to tell a little anecdote now, please put on…[Read more]

Trey, I have a feeling that the scavenging is heavily affected by the three sliders you set up on the character application page, (something like, combat, dexterity, and luck?) If you geared your character up to be a combat veteran at that point, you may find you will struggle on the piles. I rigged my character as fairly lucky to go with the back…[Read more]

I was stood on sim with a few people around me, approx. 30 other players around. I hadn’t used a specific function on the HUD within an hour or so of this happening. I received the following script error, but I didn’t notice anything else happening.

Too many llLoadURL requests. Throttled until average falls.

Okay folks, seen a few people reporting problems with their HUDs in Outbreak chat, It’d be most handy for Nadir I’m sure if he can get some details of the problem you’re having in a place he can refer to when he’s fixing these things.

Try and let him know when this happened, what you were doing, specifically what happened, maybe how many people…[Read more]

As a follow up idea, this could also potentially be taught to allow looting etc. I’m thinking probably have it check that one of x people are on sim to make sure nobody wanders in when a faction base is empty and steals their crap, but should be totally do-able provided the management are happy with us making a sort of mini-game of it haha.

This is a really cool idea. A good way to share the commodities within the group. Even if this is something that isn’t officially implemented, I may be able to script something for interested parties that will work with any ‘object’ commodities. Server-level stuff will obviously have to be done by the grown ups in charge.

I’ve been listening to a lot of ‘surf rock’ stuff. Ventures, Tiki Phantoms, Beach Boys.

I don’t have a playlist, I have a really tricksy habit of putting an album on when I start and turning it off on it’s eight repeat at the end of the night.

Might explain why my apocalypse is sunnier…
