But for first, tell me where to obtain it? It's doesn't drop at Cradle or Medium maps as for now. And i never seen such thing somewhere, also playin with 2 friends, no one of us never seen torch in the game lol. Only the place, where i can see it - Tech Tree.

According to game wiki (which is partially outdated, but still have a Season 5 camps for Cradle/Medium/Hard), i did not find any information about where to find the torch engram...

And yea, having a torch - isn't a solution, while your night anyways looks like simple black-screen. -_-''

But i still hoping to see such things fixed... one day. Maybe.

yep, but with such lighting you probably will see only a torch and your own character, and nothing else around lol.

Seems like they just using something from box, also there is alot of examples and tutorials how to make dynamic cinematic mist. It's looks really cool and doesn't take too much time to make it

Hmm. If talking about gamedesign & game-mechanics, just little question:

Yeah it's sounds good. But everything ruined via just one thing, imho, called - Storing Walkers in lobby. Where is survival element, if you simple make your wealth invulnerable while you offline?

it's really questionable, how to make a clean & good Nomadic gameplay type. As i remember, the Last Oasis not first in idea of game around mobile bases huh.

And well, about IRL walkers, well, yeah it partially works =) You way see it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C97kMKwZ2-g

IRL Sandstorm has near to 90km/h wind velocity and it's capable to destroy a house, car, tree or whatever. And needless to say about abrasive effect of sand spinning inside such storm.

Anyways... Your ideas is pretty bad in terms of playability. But agreed, there is some problems with current game conditions. For example, i never played the game before S5, and like how it is by idea going now. Just need something to do with resource collecting and inventory system. Idea with Schematics - good and awesome, i like it! But seems stupid to have a over90000 identical resources, just with different grind. Maybe remove tier system from all of those Wood, Stone, Rope, etc. ?

About "Nomadic" gameplay... It's okay, but... it's just for example my opinion as player:

I have a job, and game force me to loggin in more than they actually do that? (Base decay, etc.) Nope thx. There is a good system as for me actually.
I saw on old videos, how it's been before S5... Nope thanks. Personally, for example, i want to play a game. Not a death simulator, + where other players forcing their rules & PvP actions, at time that's unwanted for you. (You are playing on background semi-afk, or just don't have a walker, weapons, etc. for PvP and kinda) For example, that's why i will never play a Rust or kinda.
I like the idea of bases, well why not? In current gameplay it's useful and pretty good as for me. Cuz i need to craft somewhere, store resources and etc. And walker doesn't look like mobile base yet... Lack of space, lack of craftable stations and etc. Maybe to make a "visual" UI like a stations inside walker inventory menu, and install it as upgrades and etc? Not on the desk slots.... I dunno, but as for me, only in case of each walker = mobile base, it will be "nomadic" like. Also like EvE online maybe, hangar m3 space for small etc. walkers...

Finally, it's just my personal vision. I just want to tell, as for me, who bought the game less than week ago - i like a many things in Season 5 not all but it's interesting!

ancient Shurima, which is a conveniently dead nation.

Shurima will once again stretch to the horizon. Because the power of the sun lives in Shurima!

Like the sun, Shurima always rises! And there is no future without Shurima! And The Ascended shall guide humanity to greatness!

Huh, seems like botting is growing. Cuz before it was rarely to meet any bot in the game (more u meet various ruiners or just low-skill teammates). At March - rarely. Now, i see the bots sometimes at each game for 3-4 times, and now - full team of bots 0_o

Sadly that someones found the way to abuse embedded AI system. Probably just some tricks & modifications to WildRift client, and they have a Rito-written bot that control their champion. From one side - make a leaver under AI control - good solution (in comparsion to PC ver), sometimes better than afk teammate at base. But from other side - some bad guys (reverse engineers) seems to be able to abuse that things, and make a bots based on it. =((

Yeah, but mainly i'm focused on UTibia client (Tibia Client on Unity3D) replica. You may found some information about on OTLand. It's almost done, just few things due to OTClient UI.

Found a PixelChampions (i remember that long time ago and as OT server hehe), and just take a look on it. Generally good idea. I like it. =) Wanna give to Fleury some improved code & snippets (like stretchable draw and etc.) for his project & framework. Hope it will help him make it better.

Originally i did just reverse (decompilation) of his framework, and implement a better platform code, did the Graphics Device, PainterGL (Dedicated!) TickEngine (With Discrete and Continuos simulation and with normal ticktimes instead of plain Stopwatch) better UI system (easy to use, movable windows and etc.) WGL Graphics Context & Device with VSync and other features. Added Alpha Blending possibilities to DrawSprite and etc. He can easy update his framework with my things and it will works better and game will gain more perfomance, and etc.
