1- Occupation doesn't chnage anything to them

2- If they don't read what the server gives them to learn it's their fault, howver this could be a good idea

3- There are ways to get xp, and spawners in peaceful towns would just create safe kit productions sites (tl dr that's a big nono)

4- Fix that

5- Agreed

6- This was a thing and it's incredibly annoying for any "non-new" player

1. They are confused when they get occupied 1 day into the game, they will be just as confused 1 week into the game. What does make them not confused is learning about the feature, not waiting longer until they get "occupied", a thing which they will never know about until learning what it means. In addition, I doubt they quit because they got "occupied", as per your wording, when they don't even know what it means.

Regardless of this and your odd train of thought, new towns not being occupied certainly provokes some skepticism about the occupation system, and discussion on the fact that new towns get put into the thick of geopol (gameplay + restrictions) simply because they happened to exist.

2. I agree, and this interactive Nations tutorial was supposed to exist. Worthy to note, more than just Zaify (as the orchestrator) would be working on it, there are a couple teams of individuals behind the effort. Time constraints don't make this easy.

3. The choice of only Non-Peaceful towns having spawners is a deliberate gameplay balancing measure. There have been numerous discussions on this that the people that take time to read through this part of the suggestion, have already read or partaken in; thus I won't go over them here, for brevity's sake.

4. This is valid as a bug report on our Discord, invalid as a suggestion.

5. Hard updoot. Even as a player now, I feel the profound need to protect the newbs from (((cringe))) /suicide baiters

6. By default — and this is something relevant to the people you are describing, since they have no knowledge of how to use and configure settings — players are prompted to install the resource pack (when the server has enabled this option), and CCNet has a custom message that warns about guns and sounds being important n stuff. Where the issue lies and why this was changed, is that loading in with the resource pack every time you join the server is severely annoying, as Human mentioned above. Personally, I think any player that is even remotely invested in the server, will know about the resource pack eventually. Fortunately or not, we're compromising here, and the current state seems to the better solution. But in the end, no matter how guaranteed, in the future there might be an update to this system and the problems will be solved. For now, we settle with this.

1. And 3.rule no. Just no.

Ffs not rule idk
