Long days short nights
Has anyone figured out how to change the new settings to make longer days and shorter nights? Tried messing w/ it a couple times, but i've only seemed to make both way longer.

Yes this is what I have ours set to , haven't timed it to see exactly how long the cycle is but nights are shorter than the default and days are longer than the default.

NightTimeSpeedScale=1.500000
DayTimeSpeedScale=0.300000

Go under Serversettings?
Does it go under the GameUsersettings.ini or Game.ini?

That is one of the first changes i made :p
I hate those nights where you can't see anything unless you increase the gamma.

Can someone explain what's the exact, logic and justified problem with replying to "old" threads? That "necroposting" stuff it's totally unnecessary.

No, it's not. The game has changed substantially since 2015, so many posts aren't even relevant, or are based on old versions of ARK.

It's one thing to necro a post from 12months ago, quite another to necro a 2015 post.

For people that try to assist others here, these old posts are just a nuisance that stop other relevant, current posts from getting attention.
