Thread: Meat shift?
Message Edited by dewolow on 06-22-2004 07:38 PM
I monitored all the minable resources on my server every day for two months this spring. 447 different inorganics in 1532 spawns and 396 different flora.![]()
All inorganics lasted between 7 to 10 shifts, while all flora lasted between 7 and 21 shifts. The distribution between the number of shifts was pretty even as well. Absolutely nothing laster shorted than 7 shifts or longer than 10/21 shifts. I only took sporadic samples of the creature resources, but they can last longer than 10 shifts. So I assume they follow the same pattern as flora which is then 7 to 21 shifts. This gives a logical distinction between organics and inorganics for the duration of a spawn.
(Each shiftlasts normally one day plus an hour orso, since the timer is affected by the daily downtime.)
