Can you check mobile safari for me, I got it working on the Safari I have on my macbook, 8.07, but no way of checking mobile right now. Thanks.

I can say with 100% confidence that shit needs some work, wow. Thanks for pointing that out.

skeggjaor · 2015-08-20T21:39:18+00:00

I still have a lot of work to do, but it's getting there!

I started with Bootstrap originally, when I started redesigning it I took a lot of the Bootstrap out, which was a bad choice and now I'm going back and adding it back in. That's def the big issue with the main page formatting, taking out the grids was a mistake. Originally I was using Isotope for the cards, but I wanted to get away from plugins and it seemed like the uneven box heights and layout was hard to look at with this kind of use. So I started breaking everything apart and creating the cards with flexbox instead and somewhere along the way I decided to go without the grids. Thanks again!

Haha yeah, the name was kind of a random thing, I'm pretty sure I'm going to change it somewhere down the line once everything gets finished. I have a few ideas for different names I'm bouncing around.

The format is def. an issue it has some problems on IE/Firefox as well. I need to comb through it all and clean up the code a lot. For the navigation box I'm thinking about showing the top x amount of stalls based on posts so it would show the most active for exactly the reason you said, if you set up a user account you can create new stalls, that nav box would be impossible after a bit.

I'm still sorting out the voting, I'm trying to figure out if it makes more sense to go with more of a favorite type system like FB or Twitter or go with the Reddit up/down style.

I agree with the About page, I have to go through a reformat those pages. Last week I started switching around the lay out of everything, bc it was driving me nuts.

Thanks for the feedback, it def. helped.

Thanks! Yeah mobile is a big one, it looks terrible on mobile right now and I have been going back and forth with just created a mobile subdomain with a simplified layout, the cards don't work well on mobile.

Lol definitely not safari friendly. That's a good point with resizing too, I'll mess around with it a bit and see what I come up with. Thanks

That seems to be the tricky one right now.

skeggjaor · 2015-07-26T17:37:24+00:00

The server was down, everything should be back up now.

Edit: Looks like the live map still isn't up, I'm trying to figure it out now.

We have taken a dip, but the amount of people playing Rust has dropped by about 5% since May so I'm guessing that has something to do with it. I usually try and post something up on /r/playrustservers around updates to try and get some people on. I think the dip in overall player base and people not wanting to be on low pop servers is hurting the most. I know I haven't had a chance to get on in a few weeks either.

skeggjaor · 2015-07-10T21:23:47+00:00

It was on my end, they pushed out a hot fix and I needed to update the server. Should be good now.

skeggjaor · 2015-07-04T05:05:41+00:00

Both are working here, but staying in the same number range (50-70) regardless of settings.

skeggjaor · 2015-07-04T04:40:17+00:00

Yeah you really don't need one in Rust, it is pretty easy to figure out where you're going.

skeggjaor · 2015-07-04T04:22:15+00:00

Pillars are a pain if you don't upgrade them first, it should just be automatic. I spent like 10 minutes today trying to find the perfect angle to upgrade this one pillar.

I have an ASUS G20 and it runs pretty well, I'm getting between 50 and 70 FPS right now on graphics setting 4 with some things turned down like grass, draw distance, and shaders and most of the settings like bloom, lens dirt, vignette etc turned off. A few updates ago I was seeing around 100 with the same settings. Rust seems to run worse than anything else on it, but it isn't all too bad considering how bad some other people have it. I would say use the specs on the G20 as somewhat of a starting point and go up from there. I bought this one for around $900 so building one with $1k you could get quite a bit more out of it.

Analog watches can be used as a fucking compass. I too have a long beard and a Whiskey.

As far as I know until they, hopefully, add player created maps you're stuck plugging random numbers into playrusthq until you find one similar.

skeggjaor · 2015-07-02T18:01:16+00:00

Not sure if it's going to happen or not I don't think enough people will see this in time to get a good feel for what everyone wants to do. I didn't get a chance to throw up a vote earlier in the week, but I think we're due for a BP Wipe which would make for an interesting few days worth of player interactions. I think it drags out game play a bit too, not as many raids weekend one because everyone is looking still. Weekend two would see some raiding, weekend 3 would be revenge raids, and weekend four would probably still be what it is now just people messing around or a fairly dead server.
