woot, thx Drake & other Dev peeps

thats alot of snow... Does not seem right for the hidden valley to be snow too...

wtb digest responses. Over a month now.

Glad to see the ARK devs take a good step towards fighting hackers. I hope BE lives up to the demands ARK will put upon it. As TRH said, will be an ongoing coding arms race. Now maybe Nubsly won't have to copy his 'report hackers' post quite as often.

waits patiently in line for the Digest to come out. (visits tent next door for some Dino Chow, Dodo is hungry ...again)

Possible to have Dino level play a factor in Dino maturation time and food? Similar to taming, lower levels take less time/food. We are still seeing Wild Dinos Despawn at times if all players leave render range. Any eta on resolution to this? Any potential to make Dino spawns be more Dynamic based on the volume of players connected and volume of living wild dinos? During peak play hours our server (PVE Official 338) becomes a Dino Ghost town. For the dino painting .pnt files, can we get the pixel counts to maintain aspect ratio to the Dino’s size? Trying to transfer a picture to say a Rex, leads to lots of distortion issues because of the shift in apsect ratio. Any ETA on fixing the Oviraptor's buff to effect scorpions too? Large, sealed, structures do not consistently trigger the shelter/home icon and therefore rain/snow occurs indoors, and no insulation boost is given. Is this intended? If it is, can you share what the size maximums for this are? Will the new setting for auto-destructing really old items be turned on for Official PVE servers? Any feedback/eta for ‘floating’ structures collapsing as they should? Pipes/Wires/Pillars – If you remove their roots, they do not fall. Can we get a bird cry, nice scary one, you can activate when riding one of the flyers? More methods to trigger poop events in newbies are needed. Can we get a scream emote with audio when when we need to run for our lives? Can you do anything about the handfull of bag containers that do not have decay timers that are left over from buggy PVE demolish issues when it first rolled out? Or do we just need to toss in emails with coordinates to reports@studiowildcard.com? Will be be able to paint other appliance type items in the future? Its nice we can paint the industrial forge but I wanna paint my fabricator too! Can we get a refrigerated trough in the tek teir? Lose so much meat when raising babies. Will the mentioned tek 'Shields' item be player, structure, dino, all? Will they block wild dinos, or just projectile attacks? Will we see vehicles pulled by dinos in the future? Love the idea of a pair of trikes pulling a sled In the tech tier, will we be able to get solar/wind/hydro power options? Will wild dino levels always be a multipler based on server the difficulty setting? Reduces dino level diversity quite a bit. Have you been able to reproduce the dino harvesting issue in your test servers yet? This is still a rampant problem. Can you share any details on any upcoming changes to the crafting system? Myself, and many I know, would love to see a more in-depth system that allowed the potential to craft higher tier items without the need for finding loot drop blueprints for them. It would be especially nice if decions made during the crafting process impacted end results. Like you could try to make a higher durability item vs higher damage, etc. I know the ARK data move at obelisks is turned off for officials right now due to some exploit issues. Any ETA on when we will get that ability back, and can you outline what the vision is for their function/utility? I love the idea of being able to visit another ARK to say hi, maybe do some bartering, and then returning to my original ARK. When you get to ‘glass’ windows etc, will glass walls be available? I want to create some critter display cases. Can we get an option on foundation objects to control resource/Dino respawn supression radius? Will we get the ability to color sign text returned? I liked making red lettering on warning signs!
