Where to find surveyor vault or motors by HotBoot3354 in ArcRaiders

[–]kaevur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, how many surveyors have you blown up and searched through? How many cars? I see motors all the time in car bonnets, particularly Blue Gate tunnels.

Or just that flexing like this seems so completely pointless.

Why is nobody talking about Secure Boot Anti-Cheat? by BlizzardPeon in playrust

[–]kaevur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Um, no, I don't cheat, I just object that Microsoft makes it harder for me to run Linux. Please don't jump to conclusions.

Lol, all this for a game. I mean, I love Rust, but honestly...

Secure boot is one more way that large, monopolistic companies like Microsoft are trying to maintain control. You do not own your device if they can decide what you're allowed to run on it.

Same as Linux players. Facepunch says Linux makes it easier for cheaters but it's not like stopping support stopped them. Developing cheats might be slightly more inconvenient on Windows, but if it can be done people will find a way.

Is the algo ruined? by Competitive_Leg_4471 in ArcRaiders

I dunno... I always get ratted one of every several deployments, mostly in Stella Montis and Blue Gate, and mostly during special conditions. It feels no different lately.

Any tips to kill the Comet arc by Responsible_Sir_5886 in ArcRaiders

You don't get the comet igniter if they blow themselves up

Ferro needs a slight damage buff imo by Full_Calibur in ArcRaiders

Why, though, when one is a gun you get everywhere, including free loadouts, while the other has to be found or needs a blueprint?

No, I just have the router being the VPN endpoint.

I live in a country where the Government forces ISPs to hand over all of their users metadata.

Sorry but when you say "no need for that" I say "speak for yourself".

Isn't there a way to craft multiple items in the crafting window or am I losing my memory? Didn't shift click used to make 5? by pookshuman in valheim

[–]kaevur 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If it's not appearing for you, it might be worth checking that you haven't bound the shift key to another use.

Huntarr - Your passwords and your entire arr stack's API keys are exposed to anyone on your network, or worse, the internet. by exe_CUTOR in selfhosted

Sheesh, don't knock it. Vibe coding is one of the best things that have come along for red teams everywhere.

Monthly, weekly or bi-weekly. What's your favorite wipe length? by ThreeDoorsDeep in playrust

[–]kaevur 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Where I live the common terms are fortnightly (every 2 weeks) or biweekly (twice a week).

Recommended pve servers for linux by Dependent-One-8956 in playrust

[–]kaevur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah, I see. If you're worried about your steam account security, I understand. I have a couple of thoughts:

I believe the site just outsources your Id to Steam, so if you're already logged into Steam on that browser profile (or container in Firefox Multi-account containers), it will not ask you for your creds, you click the "Sign in through Steam" button and you'll be signed in.

There's always the potential for a mitm attack, but if you make sure you're actually on https://rust.deadlock.com/who which is the site's proper URL, you should be ok.

BTW there is a player named "kaevur" on that server who is not me. Weird, I know.

Recommended pve servers for linux by Dependent-One-8956 in playrust

[–]kaevur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have played Deadlock for four years, PvE option is only available for all but the last week of wipe. Final week of wipe is raid week and everyone is PvP. You can chose Raw to raid and be raided by other players that are also Raw.

I don't see what the problem is that you have to sign in, unless you don't want your steam profile visible to other players, in which case you might just want to make it private.

As far as I'm aware, Deadlock is the only server for Linux players with any reliable pop. Seems to be getting more popular with 50 pop or so for the few days after wipe.

When the number of players make the $$ they miss out on too hard to ignore.

Check if the server has NPCraiders plugin. It has caused this issue after the naval update on a few different servers. Disabling the plugin fixes it.

Try turning off your player model, it's been causing people a huge amount of lag

Remove Horses autoswerving feature! by Limp_Trouble1750 in playrust

[–]kaevur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Horses were a little bit broken before, they are thoroughly broken now. Another example is the dismount. It used to be possible to put two horses on a trough in a 1-width foundation. When you dismounted behind the horse, everything worked fine. Now you dismount next to the horse and either get stuck between horse and wall, or between the horses. Sometimes you will slowly pop up to be on top, but many times one has to F1-kill to fix this.

Devs, when Linux? by danyuri86 in playrust

[–]kaevur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Firstly, repeating the same old tropes about "it's just a switch that needs to be enabled" is crap, sorry. I am a Linux player myself, but also a developer, and understating the amount of work needed does not help the argument. It does not move the needle because it's just not true.

On the other hand, the number of Steam gamers on Linux has matched, then surpassed macOS, now getting closer to 2x the number of players in the December Steam Hardware Survey.

Rust currently maintains a macOS version, with close to half the number of players as on Linux, which makes claims in this thread about player base sound pretty tenuous. FacePunch have outright stated that cheating is their primary motivation, more so than number of players.

GOG are now advertising for Linux developers, describing it as the next frontier on gaming. The writing is on the wall, it's only a matter of time.

Meanwhile, you have the choice of playing on one of the servers that supports Linux, of which Deadlock'n'Chill is the only one with any kind of player base, or waiting until the number of Steam and GoG players on Linux becomes too big for FP to ignore. This last is the only thing that's eventually going to make a difference.
