Backpack fix before anymore dinosaurs
6 deaths in a row all lag. It's alpha thats somewhat tolerable. But for crying out lound COMPENSATE for the glitches and ditch realism and make backpacks easy to recover. Out of my last several deaths I lost 3 sets of full gear and wasted days of my life because of backpacks falling through the ground. I WAS able to recover my backpack several times by jamming my self under a rock till i can see through walls and find where my body/bag was left and move to where my bag is and go prone to reach THROUGH THE GROUND to my bag. Easy fix make the grab range larger and if you are within so many yards it glows through walls. SIly and unrealistic but it counter acts the glitches while still making you at least remember about where the backpack dropped. And extend the loot range on bags because they also fall through the ground out of reach and nothing sucks more than staring fighting off dinos to get your bag back then finding your bag and its its still glitched out of reach.

A cool way to make this work would be to make the implants give off light, that way it'd be lots easier to see your backpack.

There was a Mod that made a Beam of light shine up like the Beacons for your bag when you die but smaller in diameter would be cool if implemented.

The implants could get brighter if you are going in the correct direction and blink when close.
or
They could simply have a magnetic electromagnetic frequency tracker laser for the previous resurrection that flows out of the implant as a faster than light particle beam.

Problem with body locate mods is they always need to be priority mod. Too many mods that need priority.

this is why i play single player and just cheat resources. i started out like this and it just got so stupid. game is basically written in the most idiotic way possible. good luck getting the dev to give a ♥♥♥♥ bout this

Exactly. First the dev's lock the game to a single core, and then you have the numerous bugs...
I understand it's alpha but why are they pushing content instead of bug fixing first, as then theyed need to bug fix a whole lot more than nipping it in the butt.

because they've done a ♥♥♥♥ job, and as a result they are millionaires defended by a legion of fanboys. it's pretty gay, but, you know, most people are slow to catch on

Optional only if so. Making everything easy to recover so I don't feel that I need to be careful or play smart because there's a much lower risk of permanent loss when you mess up? Where's the game in that? :)

Edit: I think carnivores should eat your items and you have to go hunt them down for revenge! :D

No that's a terrible idea. The amount of times I've spawned into my game and then I've got a random T-rex or Spinosarus in my house is rediculous.I've lost 2 of my 5 bases due to this.
