Heat Stroke: Find rest and water?

[FlamingoRich]

Is anyone else getting a little frustrated at the fact that we can get Heat Stroke II from just wearing cloth armor? It would be fine if stopping and resting or sitting in a pool of water got rid of it... but it doesn't.

Yeah I'm at a loss. I'm sitting in a pool of water right ow and still just groaning away

Yea the temperture weather stuff kinda sucks when logic thinking like stand under something or make a campfire when it's cold actually DID something.

I got it. In the desert, take your armor off. No joke.

[Leiliel666]

eh its workin fine for me. but im in a building in the desert. that sunlight is rough stuff

in the burned biomes standing near one of the burning wood bits will raise your temperature

[Leiliel666]

man.. maybe i shoulda read the release notes. im a tad miffed that the infinite water sourcing is gone. We still had to cook it anyway. sheesh

I am in a cave and got heat stroke.
Took off hat and armor.
Air temp 65. Body temp 128.
Drank my last 4 waters. Did not help = RAGE quit lol

There is snow not far away but it's getting dark.

Does server difficulty affect this overheating? The one I normally play on is a 5. Last night it was hard getting on and played on a level 3 server, had no problems with overheating.

I'm thinking that the heat/cold mechanic is a wee bit overtuned and will probably be adjusted shortly.

What it really means is "find iron armor". If you're wearing iron you never really have to worry about the heat. It's the only thing with negative insulation values I've found so far.

I am looking for some, zcs are so hard to head shot now.

There are other items most notably certain hats have a cooling effect.

If you don't wear a coat in the desert in the daytime then it is not that hard to handle the situation. If you are planning to go to the desert on a scavenging run today then cool down the night before and bring chilling drinks.

If you have a lot of iron armor equipped then expect to have to wear a cloth hat in snow country. Alternatively wear scrap armor in snow country - almost as good protection and warming instead of chilling.

The heat system is working fine but I would like some on main screen indication of heat values and which way they are trending. Once you hit 100 degrees it is a lot harder to cope.
