Unlimited Items!
The itemtransfer-function alows for some game breaking exploits, like the ore transport workaround or item duplication.
for example:
-store all your ingots in one world
-make a backup of this world
-pickup all your ingots again
-restore the backup
-pickup the ingots again
-and so on....

very annoying when you spend hours of farming everything, while others on your server use these exploits.

IMO get rid of the itemtransfer-function and have each server handle the player inventories (and maybe skills).

Edit 1) i am well aware that there are console commands, but iam sure they will be switched off before the release of the game or remain in admin hands.

Edit 2) if you want to argue that this game is a coop game and item duplication should be a free choice within your server, then i support this idea. But as you can see with the ingame teleporter, where you are not allowed to teleport ore, you see that the original idea of the devs is to make item gathering hard and rewarding, wich makes the itemtransfer a clear oversight.

You're not going to have a nice day when you discover the Console Commands.

Inb4 people complaining because the server they had all that maxed gear and skills on got deleted.

ROFL, touche!

Or you could just....idk....play with people you trust to not do this? There's literal cheats in this game. Creating new world to bring items and dupes over to your world will be the least of your problems.

That kind of goes against the whole idea of easy coop.

This is not a ton of people playing on same server as ark or conan, but a solo or few players game.

Console commands are ok in Early Access, as they will probably be turned off till release.
But the Itemtransfer-exploit is an oversight and should be fixed.

the option doesn't need to be removed, there just needs to be the option to disable server transfers, Along with an option for server side characters storage.

Yeah, because Minecraft's creative mode and /give commands destroyed the game and it never made it out of early access.

First off the console commands needs to be there for admns in case of crash or other unfortunate events. Secound, why do you even play with ppl that exploits the game?
you will never get rid of exploiters in any game. but you can however decide who you want to play with :) i run a server for me and my friends who i trust and everything works just great :)

would be a nightmare to code that in at this point.

not to mention would drastically increase server load and save lag.


And its totally unneeded. Simply password your server... force people to join your discord and whitelist them.. put your own rules down, have an active admin that regularly checks people for "irregularities" and actively bans "cheaters"


but this game isnt designed to be a MMO.. its a single player game with co-op.

It's not an oversight that needs to be fixed. It's part of having worlds and characters separate, like Terraria which does the same and has the same "issue." Choose who you play with and you're solving your own problem. Opening it up to the public is opening it up to the worst people. Besides, someone could just not do the backup, cheat in items, then go to your server anyway.

Why would anyone use pesky exploits, when all they got to do is hit F5? Exploits in this game, are just over achiever cheaters..... xD

Why bother with all that when there is an admin console?

Cough....password....cough.

Why would anyone care how others play their game? It's incredibly sad. Is it a self esteem problem or what?

Get better friends to play with, most of the servers are friends with passwords.

There is no reason to do either of these things, and doing either would be harmful to the game. I would quit for one. Here's why both are perfectly acceptable.

1) You are free not to use either

2) You are free to password your game and only give the password to people who you know will play the way you want them to.

End of discussion. Calling for something to be removed from the game when it cannot possibly affect you unless you let it is petty and pathetic. Don't be that sad player.
