I deleted link to an old discord. When the new one is ready, send me the link, please :)

Also "loot crates quality" strongly affects on rewards in genesis/2 missions

I have not tested the influence of parameter "fuel cons." on the rate of wood melting in a campfire... element is obviously, but wood ...

If you need unstoppable run then use stimberries ... on x5 you will get more then you will use. And you can spent more point in WE or MS.

Now, dino and gun strats have same times to complete the run ... increasing rates can kill dino strats, IMHO.

No problem. I can verify this. Why not?

I need to make some tests.

I will fix the lists. I will delete untamable creatures. I do not want to add any temporally creatures. I think that adding new difficulty mode is great idea (x2.5 rates except taming multipliers ... or little bit different).

Yes.

LOL! My strat is so different then iridescentzenith's strat.

I want to make changes (only for Crystal Isles):

• increase dino count to 1.0
• allow to spawn "Alpha Crystal Talon" and 10 "Primal Crystal" only once per run.

That will solve mainly alpfa wywern rng and little bit argy rng.

Now i recording king titan default strat. After this i will record Rockwell default strat. And one funny valguero jumping mesh. Tomorrow i will run The Island on Default.

and one more thing i want to clarify everything that we are discussing here is meant ONLY for easy mode. for default runs I also think that nothing should spawned at all.

Yeah. 100% true.

I am a moderator on the ARK S.E. And we do not know about that thing anything. I will keep find.

So we have only 1 very broken map - Cryslal Isles. I want to change something only for that map. We can increase dino count for better spawn dinos and allow to summon alpfa crystal wywern talon one time in any time you need. Also i want to add brand new rule for time dalaying: If you need to start the run not at day 1 you can wait some time by using "slomo 10" ... and recreate new player after that. That will help a lot on Crystal Isles, Valguero (Deinonychus spawn). But when i launched my SP on Crystal Isles i met wywerns (with gcm) an day 1.

Or maybe delete Crystal Isles from the speedruns (that is not official map, so broken, unspeedrunable).

Now i just want to listen all your opinions first. I also do not want to spawn any creature (or tribute).

Hi

Just some days ago in ARK: Survival Evolved first 4P run was appear. I do not understand, how i can add all players to the runners list. There are only 1 player name. I want to do same as in 4P runs for Left 4 dead.

1. free spawn point choosing

Good idea but ... . But dino spawns are also random. Will that break the atmosphere? I want to compare that situation with other random games.

I know how much it hurts, but that is the part of the game. I never allow spawn choosing on default or official rates. But if look at easy mode run, i can tell how current minecraft speedruns are bad ... that is absolutely random. You just have to accept it. I added a moeder as this is a fun type of speedrun ... and short. The developers did not give us the opportunity to choose a spawn point there are. This is just part of gameplay. But. Why then are you wasting your time? While you are leveling up first (and do not move)? You can turn on the teleport through Helena first (to the necessary part of the biome). Try it. I mean turn TP first and level up points while TP on CD.

The only way I can help in this situation is to allow to create new character after killing the previous one (and also reset timer) without interacting with the world (without harvesting and taming and etc) or allow to respawn already created character (and also reset timer).

... do not forget that in ARK speedrun you can get pump action shotgun in the loot crate with extremely high damage like 125% (i find that one in ice cave in my first run) that brake the game much more ... i need to craft ~82% ammo amount - less grind and less craft time and less time to kill the boss (and much more chances to survive) ...

2. force spawning alphas

Developers mistake. Our pain. What to do. Increase "dino count" to 1.0 or allow to spawn alpfa wywern talon in any time of the speedrun?

The developers did a good job here (they made a gift to the speedrunners ... also they made so small arena ... there is no way for gun strat on default (so sad ... this is not an arena, but a meat grinder 100%)), deciding to add an alpha wyvern claw for the crystal isles. I do not want to allow alpha wyvern spawn (or enraged rexes on extinction as a 450 corrupted hearts).

One player has already achieved a speedrun. Spawning artifacts is all fair and obvious. But wild creatures should spawn without such influence. Not all maps are speedrun friendly.

I think that i can help little bit by increasing "dino count" from 0.5 to 1 only on Crystal Isles (still random but little bit more chances). Or allow to spawn alpfa wywrn talon in any time of the speedrun. What you think?

I want to allow anyone to spawn that stupid alpfa wywern talon and forget that pain and ... beat new WR without a tilt.

3. removing skilling from the run

No. No. No.

For example you can forget something or missclick ... that is a part of the gameplay. You can split leveling and skilling by time ... you waste a lot of time while skilling at spawn point and go through all engrams at one time. In my island runs while i crafting for example bow and arrows i skilling little bit. When you regen stamina or taming you can do it. When you parachuting you can leveling. Also on the Genesis P1: moeder you can level up MS little bit and run to the corner and jump in water. When you falling (in water) you can lvl up and skilling. I mean plan your "build" order.

And you do not need to show your settings at the beginning. Just complete the run and show your settings. But! Newer do that on default. Especially when you leave the game for a break. In that case just reset settings (at the start) and go to the run. When you want to continue after a break, you can reset the settings again or scroll through them (there are not so much restarts ... on crap, scorched earth).

And also i saw a lot of times ... lvl up hp and waiting time to regen stamina with low hp ...

LOL

Death% run ... does you mean Hardcore mod? I planned to add "Hardcore" mode run (but idk for what difficulties ...).

Yes, that is absolutely legit. But i understand that that is so stupid to wait that time.

I have tried this before. I was thinking about how to solve this problem more easily. I would like to add some changes to the rules, for example:

If the speedruner does not want to start on the day 1 or skip some time, then it is allowed to create a temporary character and use the command "slomo 10". At the end of the time skip, it is necessary to return the speed of time to the default value with the command "slomo 1". Console command input should be clearly visible. In that case macros not allowed (mainly for "slomo 1"). Delete the character and create a brand new one. A character created for a time skip is forbidden to interact with the world in any way other than commands "slomo x". If you need to kill a character, it is allowed to fly up by the "fly" command and then turn it off by the "walk" command. Also, if, for some reason, during the time skip, wild creatures can interfere with you (kill), then it is allowed to use the "fly" or "god" command. It is not allowed to scout the map during the time skip. After the creation of the main character, it is not allowed to harvest the corpse of the temporarily created character.
