Yandere Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 Hi Folks! My fashionista daughter discovered DST, that's great! Now She wants to play with her own account. So we setup a steam account for her, but some question raised about the skins limit I hope to get clarified. What are the current restrictions regarding family sharing? (4 drops per week, resets on thursday night for the main game owner/account, understood) What: If DST is shared over "Steam Family Sharing" to my daughters own Steam Account (on the same computer). Is she eligible to receive her own 4 drops or was it compltly removed due to exploiting? Do I need to buy another copy of the Game for her, will she eligible that way? If yes, is there any known Problems on skin drops, because of playing DST through family sharing before? I'm asking, 'cause she played about couple of hours (family sharing) and no drop yet. Thank you in advance for your time, Yan.

Starlogy Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 i think since she's logged into your klei account due to family sharing, she won't get additional drops as the account's already recieved 4 drops. but that could be totally wrong and im just saying stupid stuff Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/87609-skin-drop-limit-steam-family-sharing-2nd-copy/#findComment-1004195 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kolascay Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 Drops are given according to Klei Accounts, not Steam Accounts, right?

Yandere Posted February 14, 2018 Author Share Posted February 14, 2018 I remember, when starting DST through family share for the first time, it noticed that the account is unkown and I registered with Klei in that moment under a different name.

Yandere Posted February 14, 2018 Author Share Posted February 14, 2018 So option B: Bying a 2nd copy is the way? Are there any known issues to expect?

Developer PeterA Posted February 14, 2018 Developer Share Posted February 14, 2018 The owner account is able to earn up to 4 items, and all family sharing accounts borrowing the ownership of the game are able earn to a combined 4 items. If you daughter isn't receiving gifts while playing, then please try sending us your client_log.txt after she's finished playing, and I'll look into what's happening on the account. Note that she'll need to be playing in an online world to earn the drops.

Yandere Posted February 14, 2018 Author Share Posted February 14, 2018 Hello PeterA! Thanks for clearing things up! That would be great, I will give her another couple of hours to play and report the results. Whish me luck. If by tommorrow nothing droped, I'll provide the logs. And yes, I saw her playing online with other players so I'm pretty sure she played online. Thanks again, Yan.
