Repairing palisade takes too long

Postby shubla » Tue Apr 13, 2021 5:37 pm

The title.
I added a gate to my palisade with a wrecking ball, but repairing of the segments that were partially damaged seems to take forever. I have to wait a few hours between every repair, and I have to repair it like 5 times? Unreasonable. Only purpose of this timer is to avoid repairing while somebody is destroying the palisade ( I think) for that purpose, this is just a lazy overkill. Pls fix.

To build a huge pali, it takes few hours.
To repair 1 tile from pali, it takes weeks.
To fix this all, it takes 1 minute.

Wait didn't you say the game needs more things like midges in game because not everything in the game should be easy and rewarding or something? Pallisades should take a long ass time to heal even if you are knocking your own walls down. You are making yourself vulnerable if you are reworking your walls and others could take advantage of that. It makes you think about expanding and stuff, not everything in the game should be super easymode I hear. Also it doesnt take weeks, I just reworked my base and the timer was 2 hours per repair so even at 1% it took a day or two.

Seems fine to me tbh.
Early world exploit: Put your hearthfire inside a cave, then hold shift to position a claim right in front of a cave. After 8 hours the claim will be unbreakable. Since your hearthfire is inside the cave, you can still get back inside, and leave, but nobody will be able to enter, effectively making you unraidable for the first 3-7 days. Enjoy

Maybe if you repair it every 2 hours, but some people have other things to do than repair their walls, so it takes weeks not hours.
There is no reason for it to take this long. Could be timer of 12 hours after which you could fully repair it etc.
Comparing palisade repair timers to midges is retarded.

Im not comparing pallisade repairs to midges, I'm saying like you said about midges, not everything in the game should be an easy reward. Expanding or reworking your base comes with a cost.

Maybe people complaining about midges have other things to do besides sitting and watching their afk character inside their own base.

I'm pretty sure the wall repair delay was added in some revision of the siege system that isn't relevant any longer. I've also brought it up a few times, but Jorb has been reticent to revert it for some reason that isn't entirely clear to me.

wasn't it just added to make it so you can't repair a wall with alts faster than siege machine can damage it?
