Daytime & Nighttime

[mossy ferry]

I don’t know too too much about daytime or what plans you have for it (going to devs and stuff) but please make daytime last longer than nighttime because I feel like I hardly every see day time and it’s kind of hard seeing in the dark unless your near the border.

[wooden otter]

1. banned suggestion
2. no.. why would day time last longer than night time?

you can literally get night vision at robotics if you have the right stuff as well

bad suggestion

@dry smelt banned suggestion

wait they removed it from the banned suggestions list 😔

[rare gust]

hmmmm

[lethal dome]

Just make em the same amount of time each

[wooden otter]

they already are the same amount of time

day takes up 24 minutes, night takes up 24 minutes

[iron crescent]

Well techanlly

Actually nvm

[graceful trail]

mmm

maybe

[mossy ferry]

This one?

[mossy ferry]

I feel like that’s not true, because I spend alright half of my time in darkness than in lightness in DoD

[wooden otter]

well, as far as im aware they're the same length

personally, i don't agree with daytime being made longer than night

but i think maybe torches or lanterns should be added for wastelanders for a small amount of scraps so they can see at night

maybe the lanterns could strap onto the back of your character and yeah

[fading dawn]

night bad, day good

…but honestly they should be made equal or just a little bit longer (25, 23)

It may be unrealistic, but dark is already so dark that it needs to be balanced

but I’m already used to it, so, I dont know

[shadow nimbus]

Giant spotlights that can be powered by batteries that shine all directions as far as tls

Lol

[fading dawn]

oh right that lol

[lethal dome]

Oh nice

[mossy ferry]

Yeah but they are hard to use because batteries are hard to get.

[shadow nimbus]

Nah I mean they should add that. We dont have that rn

[mossy ferry]

Still though

[young flax]

what

their on most of the time

[whole rune]

Massive great suggestion.

Some of us don't have robux to buy NightVison, or even use it.

Nor use the AEGIS light.

And the night feels longer than day. Even with full brightness on during dark doesn't do anything.

It's a good suggestion.

[mossy ferry]

Most of the “day”???

[young flax]

*Night

The lights are on a majority of the time.

I've rarely seen them off.

[mossy ferry]

They are but they don’t shine much making it to where we can still hardly see, the thing is it that your a ARD and inside the border where light is.

[mossy ferry]

Where are they located at exactly?

[young flax]

Around the facility, as said earlier they reach all the way to TLS.

[mossy ferry]

At border? Or..

[mossy ferry]

That’s near border, my point is the entire map or wasteland.

[young flax]

Yes, the facility is the border.

[mossy ferry]

Not whether YOU can see or not

[young flax]

Plus you can just get a battery for NVG by making a battery in Z-14

[mossy ferry]

No one has time for that nor people want it because people in the wasteland LOVE TO KILL, and NVG is a one time thin

[young flax]

Just avoid settlements?

[mossy ferry]

So in all it’s just a waste of time when you can add daytime longer than night time

[young flax]

Would be nice though.

[mossy ferry]

Doesn’t matter about settlements you have people who like to go near gamer bunkers and raiding sites, etc.

So….

Still

[young flax]

Raiders only go gamer, border and settlements

thats about it

[mossy ferry]

How would you know ARD? And when was that fact backed up?

And regular people too go anywhere

[young flax]

Gamer to get weapons/gear, border to raid, setttlements to spawn in/respawn

Still, would like this change, not to much of a change, but just a small change

[visual lava]

Bro looking goofy now

[mossy ferry]

I didn’t get what he was talking about in the first place 😅

[wooden otter]

because it used to be on the banned suggestion list, thus why i mentioned it

And I know that in real life sometimes day lasts longer than night and vice versa, but thats based on seasons, and DOD doesn't have seasons

[mossy ferry]

Okay well also it may not have seasons but nighttime feels way too long even if it were longer than day it’s more extensive than rather day time

[wooden otter]

eh, unless if night time is actually longer than day time (which is isn't to my knowledge anyway)

it might just feel like that because night is more unpleasant to get around places

even though I haven't really had any issues getting around the wasteland when I interning in MDF or when I was ARD at night time

[quiet harbor]

Coded has said before that night time isn't actually longer, it just feels that way because we hate it.

And when people hate something, things tends to go slow

It just feels like it but it really isn't

[visual lava]

Just don’t hate it then easy

[rare gust]

Yea we havent tested of how long both times are

[jade plover]

more hate = more slow = more angy = more pain

[ancient scroll]

This is not true I have been doing 5 hour duty states and it starts during daytime usually and it only cycles once or twice mostly being night

[wooden otter]

that is 100% cap

[ancient scroll]

Nah it ain’t dawg

I was sitting on tls FOR A HOUR in the dark

[wooden otter]

bro, 50% of the time when I join the game, its day

[wooden otter]

why are you sitting on tls for an hour

and

[ancient scroll]

Why you so pressed over this

Because I can ?

[wooden otter]

im not pressed?

[ancient scroll]

Nah you low key are

[wooden otter]

I've done 30 minute duty states where it has been mostly day and then, for the last 6 minutes night

because 1 in-game day is 48 minutes

48/2 = 24

[ancient scroll]

Ight I’mma test later

[wooden otter]

Okay

So,

5 hours if 300 minutes

one in-game day is 48 minutes

48x6 = 288

meaning, you should've experienced roughly 6 days and 6 nights in your duty state

[ancient scroll]

Ok that def did not happen 💀

[wooden otter]

well, i say, based on my experience, that a day definitely only takes 48 minutes

[shadow nimbus]

Ik for a fact that they are equal

I won’t tell you how cause it’s classified but they are equal

[ancient scroll]

How tf is a day and night cycle classified

@shadow nimbus

[shadow nimbus]

No the reason I know it is classified

As in there is something in ARD that I need to do to do something else so because that works I know the 2 are equal

[mossy ferry]

It’s not though

[young flax]

how would you know..

its ard stuf

[mossy ferry]

The day and night cycle??

[mossy ferry]

exactly…

[dry smelt]

pro suggestion

i aint ever see daylight in my life in dod

[mossy ferry]

Well at this point I hope it gets added

[visual lava]

cuz bro has nothing better to do then kill random civilians running passed the dont run sign

[visual lava]

so out of your 348 hours played on dod you have never seen light before???

[dry smelt]

yes

[visual lava]

ok

[mossy ferry]

Uh, what…

[mossy ferry]

It’s all a simulation!

[iron crescent]

@mossy ferry batteries Is easy

Raiders can make 20 batteries at a time

[mossy ferry]

Huh…

No they can’t.

[visual lava]

Yes with pure fed ore

[devout geyser]

Better suggestion, make night time the only time and specifically at 12 minutes into the night and doesn't change from that 👍

[mossy ferry]

I need to know how.

[mossy ferry]

So when economy resets I’ll be able to make millions again.

[visual lava]

even better suggestion at an in game clock and the sun goes down at like 7 and come up at 6

[wooden otter]

best suggestion

permanment night time

[mossy ferry]

Noooo
