Trees are dying because of this game. The epa should go after these folks for all their money.

Isn't that true of all games, and even for comments on this website? Sorry if I am just missing the sarcasm.

Kinda cool! What's the max concurrency?

Should scale pretty well to hundreds, only key state changes and clothes/messages/etc changes are synced when they happen, it uses dead-reckoning, client authoritative and it's pretty accurate/fast.

Ah cool. So you replace NPCs with real players as they come in, or add them into the mix?

That's why we planted a tree in the game.

Rave chat was working fine until I wrote "I think rust is overrated" and I can no longer see my or anyone else's messages. Yes, really.

It was crashing so you were losing the connection. Now this should be fixed.

Did this get hugged to death? Not loading for me at all.

It was crashing but now it should be ok. Until a new bug arises.

I like it! but without ability to execute own dance moves, not really dancing... Tried with keyboard but it didn't work.. Now imagining infrared webcam thing and some DIY stick on reflective things.. set up your own rave cave, attach sensors, dance, your virtual self mirrors... now you're raving

Add them. The graphics support many more. That's why it's low poly. Of course if it gets popular I will start reducing the NPC count. Now they're there otherwise there's no "rave party" feeling.

Looks like you have a serious moderation problem, there are racists running around using n-word racist slurs
