Flag limit setting

[Velocifer]

Is there a way to make maximum flag per character more than one?
It feels so limiting to only be able to build in flagged area especially in single player :(

Hello :),

Not for now, but if i understood correctly the Developers will add a Setting for it in further development.

Oh ok, thank you for quick reply, hopefully they add it soon. I understand the reasons they put limit on it, but atleast there should be settings for it, not "hard-coded".

I hope it will go fast, because kicking the big PvE/RP community in the crotch with the flag limit was possibly not the best idea. ;)

It worked really fast with hotfixing the serversetting for max BB elements, hope the flag limit will be a setting very soon.

Max BB elements option in the server settings was included since the release of 0.8, for the flags, there are no such options and the current limit is 1 flag per player or squad.

Even for SP having 1 flag is meaningless. With such a big map it is impossible to have 1 base, it really limits your exploration.

All you are talking is about multiplayer. ok, I understand the reason to have a limit of flags.
But why the single mode players should suffer from that???
I'm playing alone. I don't have hundreds more with me.
I want to be able to place more then 1 flag and build a few small bases around the map like I used to before 0.8 and those limitations.
Or atleast, allow us to build without a flag (in single player mode)
Really need to fix it

its pretty bad to remove a useful feature and not provide a replacement...

The workaround currently is this:
1. Set 'ItemDecayDamageMultiplier=0.0' in the serversettings.ini file.
2. build a base somewhere with a flag and finalise everything you want in the base, then destroy the flag (the base will remain as it is and wont degrade, so you can come back to it later and use it if you want to).
3. build elsewhere with a new flag, the old base will still remain there without a flag.

Have tried this in SP mode and it works.

10 flags in Singleplayer mode would be nice. I was disappointed to find out you can only have one after I had crossed half the map preparing to make another home.

If you take down your first flag, will the base structures around it become destroyed?
Maybe you can just take down the flag and put up a new one somewhere else?

Why give the option to drink pure fuel when you are at a boat fuel station ... omgggggggggg

We are working on implementing server settings where you can set a number of flags per squad/player and you already have the server settings for the maximum number of elements. So you will be able to have 1000 flags in singleplayer if you want to, this is just the current balance for the official servers that is also being looked into.
