Arkanewisdom Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 Building a community village Okay this is kind something I want to do since my base is in a respawn area of a pve server. And I have a few things on my mind that I'm unsure of. 1) if I leave doors unlocked, when I go offline can people still open and close those doors. 2)if the campfire is unlocked while I'm offline can people still use it to cook and keep warm. 3) If I leave workbenches, like the smithy, unlocked can people still use it to craft items when I'm offline. 4) if I leave a large storage unlocked can access it while I'm offline. 5) if I unlock a feeding though does it feed other people's tamed, and will it if I'm offline. That the gist of this question, if I leave stuff unlocked while I'm offline can people still use them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zapha Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 They can use everything unlocked. Sadly they can even switch on/off fuel driven machines, even if locked. So make sure your power generator is in an enclosed room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkanewisdom Posted March 25, 2020 Author Share Posted March 25, 2020 Okay, but this is not a sadly situation i'm on prim plus and I trying to be kind to newly spawned players, so I'm setting up a "communal village" that they can use to get on their feet I'm planning on a community workshop with forges smithies, construction tables and lumber workbenches, a community kitchen with campfires maybe a bonfire or two and a few smokehouses, as well as a communal dino pen. Personally I'm not ready to go from a solo player to a multi person tribe yet but I do want to help out new players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zapha Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 If you really want to attract players you should offer the use of the expensive machines (industrial forge, industrial cooker, chemistry bench). Keep also an eye on the loading times. If you build a crazy opulent crafting village which needs half a minute to load, then you did something wrong.

Arkanewisdom Posted March 25, 2020 Author Share Posted March 25, 2020 I'm a utilitarian by nature, so I guarantee it won't be opulent. With me things only look nice if I'm feeling creative that day, you should see the crazy layout of my personal base, though I'd really like to know about making the feeding trough public that it will feed players other dinos.

Wasn't asking about cooking pots, but that's good to know, will save me from wasting resources on something people can't use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
