Day/Night System Added

MrSimons · 07-05-2014

Zone has a day/night system now, I believe it is just an overlay of different shades of color, but I think it looks pretty good. Surprised that Zone is the first iOS server to implement day/night. This is only on Skyworld. Only thing I think it needs is a clock somewhere that can show the time of day, since i'm not totally clear sometimes whether it is sunrise or sunset.

I think deciding whether or not it's day or night would be a cool feature. Because I prefer night zone over day zone

Its not really a cycle then.

If iOS can support it then power to you. Pretty sure it was removed on a lot of PC servers due to it causing lag or something.

What are the implications of this?

The system causes 0 lag from what I have seen on either of my devices. Also, it can be enabled or disabled through your options.

Is this day/night system like. Its night on this person's screen and morning on the other?

not an insult to other servers but an accomplishment for zone

Like Rufus said, what are the implications of this?

Also, it'd be nice if it were a little smoother in transition....

Of this thread? Was just letting people on the forums know. If you are referring to the "Surprised that Zone is the first iOS server to implement day/night.", I was just saying I was surprised that no other iOS servers have done it yet.

No, all the same time for everyone. However, the cycle goes much faster than real time, so it wont only be night for some players and day for others.

Still dont get what is meant by "implications"?

It's a good addition nonetheless

seeing rufus emphasize on things having a purpose I would guess he meant what things are going to happen as a result of this addition.

especially since it has a disable option

I said that and agree, it's kinda annoying.

Day/Night is a great concept! I hope more servers implement the technology.

I swear iera has had something along the lines of day and night for a while now. Or maybe it's just weather. Either way, if you toggle the option on iEra it'll go through light/dark transitions with occasional rain and thunderstorms.
