please correct me if i am wrong
« on: October 04, 2013, 05:58:18 pm »
I thought that if you have a non-town encounter, and IF you have turn based as the default, all is turn based.
unless you choose otherwise.
I just had an encounter with npc and a real player (i never seen the real player) and the npc came after me in real time.
this was in the ruins south of theme park.
i killed the npc, the real player ran off, but why didn't the mode go to turn based.
am i missing something?
was it that the real player was there first and their default was real time and that aced my turn based default?
this encounter didn't give me the choice of tb or rt.
i don't know if to report this as a bug, or am i just being a dumb ass and missed something.
feel free to call me a retard if that floats your boat.
:)

All the locations except encounters are Real Time.
Glow, Ares, NCR, Broken Hills, Redding, you name it - it is all Real Time.
Turn based is only in the encounters.

I am talking about encounters.
this particular one was south of the theme park in the ruins.
I had no choice to pick real time or turn based.
but the description said raiders and player-(what ever).
a previous encounter with dogs only was also in real time.
seems odd to me.
maybe a bug with encounter changes?
I don't know.

Oh boy, sorry, I misread.
So yeah, when you enter somebodies encounter - his combat mode preference will be over yours, since he started the combat first - and it is his encounter.

No.
All the locations except encounters are Real Time.
No. (what about quests, huh?)
if he started the enc. then the battlemode must have stayed
True.

Not accurate.

It basically works like this:
Both modesReal-timeTurn-based
Both modesyesyesyes
Real-timeyesyesno
Turn-basedyesnoyes

...which means yes, you can encounter players that are in both modes even if you set your settings to turn-based, also, you will never encounter TB players if you have set RT only. I just want to add that this is not some new feature, this was implemented even before the engine was released I believe.

I am pretty damn positive I entered a RL encounter as a TB before.

i occured bug when combat mode wasnt equal the preset mode,(i was hunting enclave in TB, in 5th encounter i 1hexed patrol, but it was just surpisisngly RT) , also there was no player in encounter before me!

I believe some occasions might affect combat mode you ll be fighting encounter.

-presence of multiple players in encounter(no matter who rly found encounter or was leader on WM)
-lost connection before
-server restart
-ingame command ~combatmode tb/rt seems to not working properly(i suggest to change mode in config file each time)

No idea what RL is (rocket launcher? real life?)

Look at my table again, the combat mode doesn't have to be always same as your current mode (you can enter both modes even though your mode is turn-based).
What many people don’t understand is what each mode really means:
Both modes - real time
Real time - real time only (you cannot encounter TB)
Turn-based - mostly TB, but you can encounter players in both modes (which is in fact in real time)
-ingame command ~combatmode tb/rt seems to not working properly(i suggest to change mode in config file each time)
I use this command literally every day and on the contrary I say it’s very safe to use it because it works in 100% of cases for me and since this feature is server-checked I’m pretty sure it works well for you, too.

Then as I said, you can encounter another player in both modes with your current TB mode, is this answer satisfactory?
