I can’t figure out how to level the ground either so I’ll probably have to find a YouTube video about it since it wasn’t explained in game from what I saw.

I would rather grind out the 4 bronze and build a slow but not molasses slow ship. *UPDATE* So when your killed on your boat your grave stone sits on top of the water. Just drive up beside it and make sure your inventory is empty as it will just throw everything into your inventory at once then vanish. So happy I got my swamp key back!

Leveling is not a problem if you build on stilts. Prep your floorplan with a bunch of the half-heights and boom, your mansion awaits.

Finally all my time finessing ground leveling in Cities Skylines has paid off. Once you get a feel for the AOE and height indicator you can cut decent slopes.

The key thing I learned about levelling ground was that the tool tries to match the ground at the cursor to the height at your feet, once you know that it's not too hard to flatten out a decently sized area. It still gets fussy sometimes, but usually not anything that can't be sorted out with the raise ground option or a pickaxe.

Hell yeah, I found a real good swamp with 3 crypts right next to each other and an empty Longboat to fill with Iron  The game definitely is grindy but the complaints about Iron seem overblown to me. You're going to have to sail around to move ores but doing runs in the boat is kinda fun and with one full load you can easily get enough iron to make a longboat for your next trip which can hold shittons of the stuff. I'm sure my tune will change when I die and lose all of my gear but so far the strategy of building a portal before you leave, and bringing enough mats on the boat to build a portal wherever you land feels like a reasonable safety net. Even if you do die, assuming nothing happens to the portal you can try a naked corpserun or gear up at your base before hopping through the portal to get your gear.

The snap could be better but it's easy to adapt to, it could be way worse than it is. I've played games with worse so I guess that's something.

New complaint: Trying to build anything with real height to it for the first time, and my roof keeps collapsing no matter how much I shore it up. Do supports actually matter or does it just count distance/number of pieces between it and the ground? I've seen conflicting information.

Do supports actually matter or does it just count distance/number of pieces between it and the ground? I've seen conflicting information. It's count from the ground. When placing pieces, they are colored - blue means "I am touching the ground" and green -> red indicates further from the ground, through attachments. The only real way to increase height is to use longer pieces. The 4m log poles help a lot with this. Pieces will count the shortest path to a blue piece to calculate their color. You can use some beams/logs to try get a bit of extra sturdiness but in general the best way to get higher is to use longer pieces.

Do supports actually matter or does it just count distance/number of pieces between it and the ground? I've seen conflicting information. AFAIK the game counts the shortest path to the ground, and pieces will break if that number exceeds ~5 or 6. The larger poles that you get access to with core wood are twice as long, so you can make things twice as tall.

FYI if you're like me and were trying to figure out why you were actually getting seasick while sailing on the ocean, turn off the realistic boat camera mode or whatever it's called in the options. By default it locks the camera to the orientation of the ship so it bobs around with the waves but turning that off keeps it centered. It can get rough when a storm rolls through.

On my particular world, I had absolutely no Black Forests that were reachable by land (well, excluding the 1 absolutely tiny instance that had nothing to mine), so I was forced to build the raft just to get to a Black Forest with actual mining. So I think the raft exists for those such situations.

I spent over an hour slowly sailing southwards on a raft to see how far I'd get. I managed maybe a quarter of the radius of my map, and ultimately died death of a thousand waves. Also I got followed by a water snake or something which nibbled at the raft. It was so brutally slow lmao.

dogstile posted:Only time I have trouble is if I'm trying to snap something below me. Otherwise it's fine The biggest issue i've had is if i want to make something 2 walls tall, i need to be at the top of the first wall for it to snap. Also I cannot get the center of the roof to even appear when trying to snap. A floor works but it doesn't look as good. I mean i'm probably just spoiled by Conan and Arks building which has years of refinement, but still annoying things.

I was just coming to complain about this. I had one hole I needed to fill with a 4x4 floor and the game would not put the fuckin square in the hole. It would always go on the ground below it. The snap is really not good.

MarcusSA posted:I was just coming to complain about this. I wish the snap toggle would actually DO something. For now though the trick to snapping (especially for putting stuff slightly underneat the ground, like poles), is to put something adjacent to it down first, then it seems to snap better, then dismantle whatever you temporarily placed down

You do but I think the consensus is that things have to be fully repaired before you dismantle them otherwise you risk losing bits.

What could probably help is to add foundations rather than just having floors. Also being able to lower and raise were something is placed would be helpful. I'm pretty experienced in games like this, for example my Palace in Conan Exiles  It took a lot of work to get to the level and gather the resources to build it so i don't expect to build stuff like this right off the bat in a game who's age can be best counted in days, but even building a hut was fairly easy even early in Conan. Now that I have a hoe I'm going to rebuild my house, as I can flatten the land a lot easier.

You're supposed to - at least when what your taking apart is at full health. There's a pretty nasty bug right now, though, that sometimes (circumstances unclear) only gives you a fraction of the materials back. Big oof when I wanted to move our kiln and smelter and only got 2 surtling cores back total.

The snap is where your cursor is. If you line your cursor with the part you're trying to snap with, it becomes a lot easier instead of trying to fit the actual part in the empty space (if this makes any sense)
