Still holding out for sod roofs in the next update.

If you don't have a portal to your main base while mining im not sure why you would put that hate on yourself. My server we have large main base but recently built a largish manufacturing base on a plains island 20ish sailing minutes away from the main base that is located between some giant islands with all biomes. Sailed over to one of the mountains and I built a log cabin with a portal to the manufacturing center. Beds are 2 loading screens away if you die on the mountain. All coal is imported from the main base which is also next to the wood source forest. It works great as barley can only be grown in the plains and we didn't want to deal with finding space for new kilns. I pretty much treat portals as instant doors and you should to. While the bases are far apart geographically they are all part of the same base in my mind bc the portals are just doors that take 3 secs to open.

Actually all dungeons are very high up in the sky surrounded by a black box. That's why your position on the map is technically correct while you're in them, you're just very very very very high up in the air. They're all on the same height though so that's why you could hear the friends crypt noises.

I would have done the portal thing sooner if I hadn't dramatically overestimated the likelihood of random mobs tearing down your poo poo.

The nice thing about them tearing down your poo poo is that you don't LOSE anything except the time it takes to rebuild even if it does happen, which if its just a portal is like a second. * unless it's a boat of course

I think I'd like to see a feature where you can fast travel between two points, with any item, if there is a road connection between the locations.

Sometimes mobs tearing down the base can lead to discoveries. Our mountain cabin area appeared to be tapped out with 4 veins of silver but while my buddy was online when I wasn't on (I run the server) some drakes destroyed the teleported which was on a 3rd floor deck. This led to him being stuck up there until I saw his text asking for the teleporter name. While stuck he accidently.found 2 more silver veins we missed ! We would have left that poo poo if the portal didn't get destroyed and he was stuck for 20 mins

Just had to reload a backup save from February because I'd lost one of our bases. Like, I couldn't remember the portal tag and I also couldn't find it on the map, even after sailing around the area for a while. How do I even manage to survive in this game.

I'm late to the mods party, but man I love this: Bigger Minimap Discovery Radius 7x map reveal radius for boats means the map reveals just as far as I can see on the default 'high' graphic setting draw distance. I can reveal shores from my boat without having to skirt the shoreline to get the map to reveal that yes, there is in fact land RIGHT THERE.

Lets you rotate on all axes and set the rotation increment value.

They have set spawn points and I think more readily spawn at night. So once you see one you can sort of farm them, just sail through that area whenever you're on a boat.

They also only spawn in areas explicitly marked Ocean, which is fairly far away from any shorelines. It is pretty easy to be in spaces where you can't see any shoreline, but for whatever reason they're marked as Meadows or Black Forest or Plains.

You didn't improve. You took a shortcut and gained nothing. You experienced a hollow victory. Nothing was risked and nothing was gained. It's sad that you don't know the difference.

I am Salty that the resist poison potions have to be preventitive and do nothing retroactively Trivia posted:There's a tipping point where that growth stops and monotony begins. It's always a thing with games that you spend dozens if not hundreds of hours in-- at some point all the things that seemed like minor nitpicks early on just add up into glaringly unfun poo poo later. It always speaks well to games that hook me for that long that they managed to hook me for that long in the first place, but I'm not going to feel bad about modding out things that I only begrudgingly dealt with during my initial playthrough so I can focus on the gameplay aspects I actually enjoy, and I wouldn't begrudge anyone else that even if the stuff I enjoy is the stuff they hate and vice versa.

Hah, what a small world running into you after all these years man. Also I have a Valheim server up but it’s not super active since most of us beat the final boss so you might have better luck with the goons.

Ursine Catastrophe posted:I am Salty that the resist poison potions have to be preventitive and do nothing retroactively Well it did say RESIST poison. You can't take a vaccine after you already got sick. You cant put on a bulletproof vest after you already got shot. From a game design standpoint, it makes the entire poison mechanic so utterly non-threatening that having it only be preemptive is balanced. On the bright side, a heal would only remove that 1 time you got poisoned. The resist potion makes everytime you get poisoned for 15 whole minutes a non threat. I'm sure the types of players who end every final fantasy game with every elixir they picked up the entire game hate the idea of preemptive medicine tho.
