Please make this your priority, right now this game is unplayable for me, i cant even craft a stone hachet to gather resources cuz it never appears on my inventory, and even while gathering wood after one swing u have to wait 2 seconds to see that u actually got some wood.

Agreed, it now takes 5x longer to craft anything than it did a week ago. Instead of spending the whole game hammering, we now spend the whole game waiting for a stone hatchet and stone spear to craft...

I spent 30 minutes running around and couldn't even gather any wood to start crafting. The small trees I couldn't hit and just walked right through. The larger ones were inaccessible on a mountain slope because I would just slide down. Awful experience.

i would like to see crafting speeds dependent on the tier of the item being built. a spear should only take 30 seconds to make, but i can understand a thompson taking a while longer.

Yea, that would be nice. It was brought up (in the form of a complaint) in another thread about bullets taking a long time as well. I like the idea of ammo being hard to make and kind of scarce. I found in Legacy hoarding lots of 565 ammo very useful. I would never think twice about spraying bullets all over the place if I had thousands of rounds at home.

In my personal opinion, I think its pretty lame that a stone hatchet and a rifle take about the same amount of time to craft.

+1
Hope we get someting like a time system for that

[neil.hillman]

Just to add some more info to the thread, I believe that crafting times are affected by lag...

My complaints were based on the official FacePunch servers, (namely Amsterdam), which hadn't been restarted, and was lagging like hell. I was getting about 3 FPS, and crafted items were taking roughly 5x longer to craft, and then would sit at 100% completion for about 5 minutes before they would appear in you inventory. Honestly, it can take you 30 mins to craft a couple of items.

I tried on a couple of community servers that had been restarted recently, and crafting time/speeds was back to normal. So it appears that your FPS affects how long it takes for items to craft. The crafting length is not set as a timer, (in seconds), (as I would have expected, as a programmer), but in client FPS or server cycles or something, that is affected by the game speed. So basically, the faster your game is running, the faster your crafting items will complete...

I'm starting to hate experimental more and more every day.

so they are not using time.deltaTime?

I can't comment on the specifics, just that when the server is lagging, crafting items take significantly longer to complete than when it isn't, (like minutes longer, not seconds). I would think that if they were using time, it would be independent of lag, give or take a few seconds of delay...

that shet got fixed yesterday.. i was able to craft and gather resources with no problem.. also with a fps boost.. on rustafield

[halfhand2012]

Ok i dont get what everyone is talking about. I can go from fresh spawn naked to stone 4x4 with furnace blazing and all necessary tools etc in about half an hour. Whats wrong with investing half an hour before you start wreking everyone elses day by randomly killing, looting and generally acting like a residant of ferguson!

You obviously didn't read the thread, no ones got a problem with spending half an hour crafting the necessary tools. The problem was that on the OFFICIAL servers it was taking half an hour to craft one item. Crafting times were proportional to the lag...

There wasn't an update on the public branch yesterday, (or the day before), so I don't think so. More likely that you were playing on a server that had recently been rebooted.

OH might be that too.. but i recall reading on garry's twitter he put some fixes on servers and stuff i might be wrong tough

[DavidBowie]

It fixes after a wipe for a few hours. Rustafied wipes three times a day to stay playable. This issue has definitely not been fixed yet.
