Feedback on new time

[Paratus]

I completely rewrote the way time passes today but never tested it. How's the day to night ratio, and the lightness of night time?

[Guest]

I still want moonless nights... NVGs or headlights required!

[Murmurs]

New event idea. EMP bomb. Turn off all ambient light and no NVGs. Only the flashes of gun muzzles and burning cars of Kavala square will light the world

[The Orphan]

Pretty good imo.  Night time is working at intended from what I have seen today

[Murmurs]

Oh, and as for the OP. I dont play on server, so im not sure. But keep up the good work!!

[Cifunds]

Do like you did on Australia. 2 hours daylight 1 hour night

[TheRealLethal]

meh, i like night. just as long as there is no rain/fog. Maybe reduce night by a little.

how does the day/night cycle work? 

i think it should just be the last 20 min of the server is night.

also, when you are shooting with night vision on you cant see anything because of the muzzle flash

did you not forget how bad that was?

I remember learning Arma on a DayZ server that was exclusively moonless nights.

It's terrible.... But God it would be fun watching the new guys huddle around their car's headlights doing drugs.

[minewarped]

Night is very nice alone but when rain and fog is added to it its just Retarded Longer Night would be nice 

[Feenix]

No Rain and No Fog is the best nighttime. If you do that make it longer.

[Goldy]

Make the days cycle in stormy weather too!!!!

[sakha]

I  like 50/50 day and night

 

[Noble]

Night is great for rp, however it isn't great for cartels and firefights. Overall, it would be nice to see night makes its way back into asylum, there's nothing like the feel and realisticity  that it provides.

[RagingEhCanadian]

I like how night is not to dark, getting lost in the pitch black of old night really sucked.

For the amount of day and night cycle I think it's fine; however I would personally start the server in the morning. After a real hour, the sun should set and  turn the server to night. After another real hour, the sun should rise bringing the server to morning. One more hour time, the server will end in the evening.

I like this Idea because you get to see the sun rise and sun set, adding a little immersion.

Since the server will end in the evening, and start in the morning it will feel less like the game has teleported through time during the restart.

Now especially for newer members of the server, less night time makes Altis Life a little easier.

Lastly. I like night time, however, I think more day time is better. This approach would provide players with 66% day and 33% night.

First night time experience was no moon, no stars, full rain pitch black. At least there is no fog so i'm not complaining.

Just reduce the time a bit and you should be alright. If it rains at night, that can get very aidsy.

[Bikstok]

Night time + rain = pitch black. I actually missed this a little bit. Will probably get old real quick though..

Would be a shooting gallary they will drop dead trying to locate the shooter in the darkness before them only seeing the flash of the muzzel before death 

[Agent X]

Cant wait for this all over again. It's magical.

I can understand your point of view. It's kind of cool to use the cover of "green time" to your advantage at night time, and I'm loving the night time cycle we have. 

@Paratus The night time cycle on Altis is perfect where it is, in my opinion.

[Twang]

i really miss the night time, tbh, i remember i'd bailed out of a friend car, run fast and hide some else, they were trying to find me at night ,annnnnnnd..... they never spoted me.
#SneakySlickStealth

i wouldn't mind if the Night time was at-least lasted  for 35 Mins Minimum to 1hr Max (Dynamic)

is it a reasonable Fair amount of reasonable night time duriation??

@Paratus Night is awesome for RP, people tend to stay in towns. Kavala at night is awesome. Shit blowing up, gunfire in every direction, people getting ran over by quadbikes, cops arresting everyone. Wouldn't have it any other way.
