BobbyNator Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 I've been wondering when and if you will be adding Night times in the city on extinction I miss the glow of the Tek structures which you see 0 difference atm with tek stuff within the city .

Not knowing the lore well, but I am assuming this is why the biomes have the dark at night and to highlight why other maps where protected this way.

ClanTKC Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 If the earth is no longer rotating, what exactly keeps everything from floating off into space? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vaculity Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 The only area in earth you ever see nighttime are inside the domes of ice and desert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ark system high above, provides atmosphere, magnetic field, gravity and a minimum of temperature control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sphere is right. The spin actually counter act (although on a very small scale) gravity. Gravity is due to mass of earth. We actually should weight (not in mass) more. Talking physics in a game forum is how it should be. It helps people learn basics in topics they otherwise will not have even glanced at. Knowledge for all, for free and with fun. Random trivia : you weight slightly less on the equator due to the spin. Don't be surprised when you suddenly weight more when you come home from there.

Rotation to simulate gravity on a station is not the same as gravity being created by mass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I asked my question (tongue in cheek) making fun of a common misperception. Thought my emoticon would say as much, apparently it has failed me. If I wanted to talk about the real problems a planet that doesn't rotate on an axis would cause, I could come up with a couple of my own, and could use wiki or some other website to help me look smarter than I am to sate any pseudo intellectual lurkers ready to pounce at the first dangling participle.

Any of the problem you find will be answered with "Thanks to the Ark system high above" so you might as well come up with them and share with us.Making the whole community more knowledgeable one post at a time.

Beliar Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 Night time just makes gameplay annoying. Enabling gamma breaks immersion so nah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeHammer Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 Frankly, if people don't like sanctuary as it is, they should move to one of the domed areas or play on another map. Making Extinction like all the other maps is counter productive. It needs to be its own experience. It's great as is. ... even if it turns out that we get 6 months of daylight and 6 months of darkness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mojsije Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 Science-y and physics stuff aside I actually quite like it without the dark, kinda encourages me to go out of the base more then on other maps. With the night time I always find myself planning and plotting and scheming on how to do stuff, then mostly forget what I wanted to do in the first place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaprosuchus Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 I miss the dark they probably didn't add it because most people just gamma up anyways. If the planet is tidally locked with the sun i can't see a real future for the planet magical ark fairies or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
