Boat Respawn

[Kegger]

Hey folks,

I wasn't sure if this would go under support, or what. If so, mods please move it there.

On one of my maps, I noticed that after awhile the boats that had been moved disappeared and reappeared in their original place. I'm not sure if this is normal or a glitch.

If it's normal, does anyone know if you can set when the boats reset? I'm attempting to build a siege map that includes a naval attack but it won't work with this =\

Thanks community.

3.5 minutes, can't set it, will only be reset if left un-used for that time, if used again or people standing on it, it will not be reset.

Hmm...on large scale Siege, that should be a solid time I feel. Thanks for the help Vince.

Edit: One other question. I read somewhere that moving parts cause a ton of lag on servers. How many boats do you think could move at once without risking a crash?

Depends on what type of server you are going to be using.

Cannons,boats,buildings etc all effect cpu usage.

If you plan on having a 200 players siege with alot of boats (take a look at fort fleetwood) make sure you have a very good server.

Whats best is to check out cpu usage while people are using boats,cannons etc on your own server. Once the cpu usage reaches above 95% you are going to start having issues.

Ah alright. I wasn't sure if it was processor side or if it was an engine issue. Thanks mate.
