Best SinglePlayer Settings in Ark Ascended

wrong button hey how's it going everybody Welcome to Ark ascended um today we're going to be talking about um my preferred single player settings I've been working on these since the game came out I've been working with the team of my admins and whatnot and then also on my single player Series so um these settings are the ones that I have kind of uh figured out work really well together there's some math that goes on in the back around when it comes to like mating and stuff like that and then also ones because a lot of times when I'm playing single player I I want to play single player I want to be the only Survivor I want it to be just on myself but also I don't want to have a major detraction from the uh public servers from the live servers from the base game is what I'm trying to say and so my settings they're more it's exact same difficulty as the public server as the live servers but also certain things are sped up when you're playing single player because there's a lot of times when you you know you uh get on to uh your game and then you just want to you just want to play you don't want to have like this major three-day investment that you have to log out in between all the time and then come back to and yeah it's just that that's just not that fun all right especially when you're playing by yourself because it's not needed um when you're uh you know people have various reasons for playing single player I do it because I want to challenge myself a lot of other people do it because they just want to pop on for two three hours after they get home from work play the game and they want to actually accomplish stuff not just have that three-hour play session be a big extension of a much grander 7 to 10 day project which is breeding a direwolf right so yeah we're going to uh jump into my settings that I use and yeah let's uh let's do this all right so uh let's pop into this one right here now this is my game so I'm showing you exactly what my settings are all right so for mods I I don't have any all right uh you can actually you can get whatever mod you want honestly I'm not going to judge this your game play it however you want to I'm just not using any in mine all right um but uh let's see all right so getting into the game rules these ones right here no change all right um like I said I like to have the game as close to uh um as close to public servers as possible and then these ones right here um for the creature once again no change I didn't change a single one of these structure this right here I did change this is the first change is uh disable uh structure placement Collision uh by default this is turned on if you turn it off you can get a little bit better snap spots um well actually I didn't change it I turned it off because there was that 50-50 bug let's turn that back on all right so now we're disabling the structure placement Collision so you can actually build and you can get a little bit better snap spots although just be aware there is a bug that my admins and I have been uh working with where certain things if they're placed incorrectly will get teleported to 50/50 they may have fixed this um in the last month that the game's been out so just pay attention to 50/50 and see if anything uh spawns there if it does then turn this off all right uh let's see um world all right so this right here um like I said I speed things up a little bit I have The Taming multiplier set at four and then the Harvest yield set at two so I gather twice as much resources as you know regular player um but like I said I'm doing it by myself and taming speed I don't want to uh sit next to something for three hours while I'm taming it I just want to get in I want to tame it 15 30 minutes yeah I'm fine with spending that amount of time I'm not fine with spending three hours all right uh let's see so let's go I do not have uh speed leveling uh myself or um flyer speed leveling turned on if you decide to that's your call I'm not going to make that call for you but I don't have mine turned off uh let's see allow unlimited resps that one is turned on just because uh honestly you may get to a spot where you're like oh I need to uh wait a level to Respec or I need to wait a certain amount of time before I can Respec and I don't have a tribemate here that that can actually C this thing but I need the ingrams turning this on kind of It kind of negates that because like I said you're all by yourself all right rules uh let's see let's get into let's see allow third person camera turned on uh player joined I have no clue why this is turned on I never open it up but that is all right enable Crosshair turned on um now let's see let's go all the way down and yeah the only thing I have turned off on the bottom section here is use single player settings by default that is turned on and it's hidden way down here at the very last one of rules if you turn this on you are no longer playing like the live servers you are no longer playing by default you are playing by a different set of rules and if you click this on none of the breeding uh stuff that I am telling you will be applicable um because these settings they they they alter breed they alter the how much uh damage your damage and health your dinos do and yeah if you're going to use single player settings then just don't pay attention to uh what I'm going to get further into the video all right but if you don't want to use single player settings then the mating and breeding stuff that I'm about to tell you will actually uh you know it will actually make a difference and it will in it'll make breeding a lot better for you all right okay so now that we've got the game rules let's go into advanced all right so PVE uh uh let's see I'm just trying to find the ones that I've changed most everything is default but there are certain things that I've changed in here uh flyer carry make sure that one is on so where you can actually pick up uh certain things with uh Argent quitzel stuff like that um no diseases I have that uh turned off just that's by default off but I also have non-permanent diseases turned on because I want the diseases but I don't want to have them last forever don't want them to wipe out my base I I want to enjoy the comedy and the desperation of while you have that disease I just want that disease to eventually end all right so uh yeah uh L cave flyers I don't have that turned on but then again if you decide to it's your game do what you want to PVP I don't change anything world uh let's see day cycle I have my day cycle uh elongated and I have my night cycle sped up for my day cycle I have it at 05 and the day cycle is the entire day the 24-hour rotation all right so I have mine at 0.5 so I actually have a 48 hour rotation all right the daytime speed is even slower so the 12 hours that you have during the day is actually 24 but since the uh um oh the day is already twice as long that's actually a 48 hour period of my daytime nighttime recording sucks it's good when you naturally get to it but yeah uh I I want my night times to go rather quick and then here we are with the nighttime speed which means that it's um five which means it's super super fast well not super fast it is faster you do have a nighttime cycle you do have to worry about trons it's just it takes a little while to get there and when it does get there it kind of goes by a little bit faster I believe in game it takes me about I believe 5 to 6 minutes to get through a full nighttime cycle it's not that bad all right uh let's see um uh trying to go through here and find out spoiling time all right I have my spoiling time set to two because I want my uh um my mutton to last a little bit longer I want my prime meat to last a little bit longer and it does change the way you play a little bit but you don't have anybody else going out there farming stuff for you so I don't really see the problem there there is a little bit of a difference between this in the live servers which means that uh you have to farm less prime meat there's a trade-off there all right um let's see corpse the decomposition time I have it set to two because if I die I'm the only one going back to get it so uh yeah I'm the only one going back to find my corpse loot it and sometimes in ASA finding your corpse in the foliage it's hard right and you get you know you get up to about like the 25 26 minute Mark and then you start to Panic this right here it extends that 30 minute uh decomposition time to 1 hour so it gives you a little bit more time to do it actually twice as long to find your corpse just in case all right now we getting into oh the next uh little section right here resource respawn interval there was an issue when um ASA first came out I'm not sure if it's uh if that has changed because this is what I changed my respawn interval to and it worked really well with single player there was a there was a bug that it was just taking too long for resources to respawn in single player I turned mine to 05 I haven't had a problem all right and that's that's my testing methodology on that I put it to 05 haven't had a problem and I left it so that's what I did all right um setting up let's see uh egay interval oh no mating interval all right so 0.01 is my mating interval the time in between where dinos can actually breed with each other now I actually uh I I tested this with thylo colos I tested this with Argin I even tested it with direwolves and actually so far as direwolves usually I test it with UD I haven't gotten to that point yet on my single player game so I've tested with thas tilus are notoriously hard to difficult uh hard to raise and get a full imprint and I was able to do it with quite a bit of time in you know in between so I'm pretty good with this one I'm pretty I think I've got it nailed in once I get to UDI I may change this a little bit but I don't see how I'll be changing it too much and I'll show you exactly how I'll change it here in a sec all right um so um the and I was saying on argents um the 0.01 uh every Z every 0.1 every uh 100th of a percentage led to 10 minutes um interval in the Argent breeding so if I had it0 2 or Z 0.2 it was 20 minutes in between breeding this right here is 10 minutes now you cannot set this to zero well you can set it to zero but when you log out of the game it'll default to 1.0 sometimes you won't catch it all right um but yeah all right so I just have mine locked in at 0.1 because that'll save it'll stick and it'll always be like that and it doesn't really matter so I've got about 10 minutes in between each breed so if I want to you know actually get a bunch of stuff bred up there you go all right egg hat speed 30 eggs in this game can take quite a long time especially when you get into the higher uh tier stuff like the gigas and quels and stuff like that 30 is a relatively easy and quick hat speed it takes about 12 to 15 minutes sometimes for the higher Echelon ones but yeah all right uh over here on the right side I don't have any of that turned off the baby mature speed I have set to 42 and it works out really well and what you have to do you have to balance the baby mature speed and the cuddle interval um if you want to get the uh proper uh baby raising up and be able to get their full imprint so 42 actually raises them up at a really good rate and then the 0.03 on the cuddle interval means that you can actually get a full 100% imprint on it really easily now um when I get to Udi's if I can't get that I'll actually I'll probably change this to 0.02 just to but that'll also kind of throw off all the other dinos because yeah uh so but for right now 0.03 it works out really well I've had really good results with this so this is the one I'm sticking with for now all right wild dinos uh I haven't changed it at all all right tame dyo uh don't change this at all once you start changing this you are no longer in the same realm as the live servers because on live servers they don't change this all right player I don't change change this once again check the um thing I just said like 5 seconds ago all right uh XP multipliers once again I don't change it um if I uh decide that I want to go with a little bit slower I'll turn down the XP just so where I can actually have a little bit more time in the early game because in my opinion the early game is wicked fun I love the and the beginning the middle and the end I love the beginning and the end the most the middle is good I do have a lot of fun there but when compared to the other two I prefer those all right so miscellaneous uh these ones right here I don't think I've turned off too much of those I'm just trying to uh take a look at this really quick see if I've changed anything uh show floating damage text I did turn on because that was by default off um yeah I don't think that uh I've changed any of that other stuff all right so uh let's get into game rules really quick because there's one thing I didn't cover here and that was yes okay so maximum difficulty this is one of the ones I've been getting a lot of questions on so I'm going to cover this maximum difficulty I have set to on all right now if you're running a server it's been my experience that when you set up the maximum difficulty you have to have it on and difficulty level has to be def has to be set to five even though it says if not maximum um in single player setting it to one means you have level 150 dinos because you have maximum difficulty turned on that's been my experience so far hopefully your results are the same um I've got uh three servers up and going and then also I've got my single player by messing with on my servers I have to have the set to five just to get 150 dinos on my uh um single player I have it set to one and it gives me 150 dinos just because I have maximum difficulty checked and I have 150 dinos all right now remember every time that you set up your uh um set up your settings every time you do any set um changes on here you click save settings and although I have noticed that saving settings only kind of changes things whenever you click it there's there's about a 75% chance that it'll save it I've had times where it just doesn't save it you have to log into the game and then once you log into the game it 100% s changes all your uh saves all your settings and then you are good to go wait for it to load up and there we go everything is completely saved all right but hey I hope this uh um video helps you out with your single player settings uh these are the ones I've been using I've been testing everything in the um last couple uh weeks ever since ASA came out on several servers then also my single player and these are the ones that I've pretty much decided that I'm going to be using for a while unless if there's a patch that changes certain things but then I will also get back and I'll notify you guys all right so hey I hope the video helped you out uh if you haven't already make sure you hit that like button it really helps me out if you're new around here subscribe and until next time this is uh flinger and take it easy everybody
