The little dudes are hilarious pests. Nice addition. The cooking expansion is a cool system, but I have trouble remembering what buffs come from which foods with all the new options. I would actually like to see something like a "cookbook" section of the crafting menu that populates as you cook (or taste) items so we can look up the effects, or at least a hint in the item description that describes the effects (doesn't need to be in "gamey" terms, just something general like "increases energy regeneration"). Moving from the crafting menu to the "ingredient+additive" interface from the smelters also seems to have removed the ability to cook on the go with the portable grill or tech stove, or at least I didn't find a way.

Lucid Dream posted:We pulled the recipes for those because we were worried people might get confused if there were 2 ways to cook stuff, but we might go back and make it so the basic stuff (cooked meat, etc) can be done with just a "heat source" like the grill. why would people get confused if there was more than 1 way to craft something? Hell, I spend most of my time these days playing modded minecraft and I'm surprised if I don't find myself having half a dozen ways to cook something. Heh.

How do I rekindle a campfire that has burned down? Putting sticks or coal into it doesn't seem to work and using the firestarter on it led to myself being on fire

Putting sticks or coal into it doesn't seem to work and using the firestarter on it led to myself being on fire If you're using it as a "heat source" for a recipe, you should be able to drop logs or sticks on the campfire in world (it will siphon off as many as it can hold) and then you can re-light it. If you're processing materials with the right click popup then you just use the popup. I know its kinda awkward/unintuitive now, I'm probably going to remove all the "heat source" recipes and make it so they all work by being processed in the menu.

Yeah it's a little clunky that way but it worked. Not gonna lie, I've played terraria before so some expectations towards mechanics are shaped by that. No offense, just so that you can understand where I'm coming from. I mainly didn't expect the fire to burn down at all since that kinda goes into the needless busywork side of these type of games but it's no biggie. Btw, after constantly dying to goats, pigs, purple flying thingies and little plant men, I finally got my poo poo together in my underground hovel and made my first set of proper gear. gently caress yeah I'm gonna walk all over these critters and get their hides and meat chunks Uhm what is that? Oh poo poo it's coming over here Nononono Well this is awkward Almost died twice on the way back to the pod already and then I had this staring contest. Luckily the right one hosed off eventually and then I killed the other while it was stuck on the pod. Of course it wasn't alone but just as I was about to die again the ghosts disappeared so I guess it turned to day? Anyway good stuff dude

Along those lines, we're going to be adding a grid based inventory option in the next update: Lucid Dream fucked around with this message at 03:01 on Aug 3, 2017 |

Lucid Dream posted:Yeah I totally get that, its a tricky thing because we wanted to improve on many of the issues we had with Terraria, but ultimately where we diverge, we usually end up just adding back in the familiar mechanics as an option anyway. For example - I thought managing the hotbar was annoying in Terraria, so we came up with the auto-filling scrollable slots... but a lot of folks preferred the Terraria-like system so we added that as an option. Anyway I feel a little stumped in my progression right now. I found the mining outpost and did the quest thingy there which made me a space wizzard but I'm not sure what to do next. I mean I would need to make steel now but I haven't found any of the stuff I need for it during my spelunking. I guess I have to dig even deeper?

Yeah, for steel you need anthracite which is pretty far underground. You should start to see it around the depth that you start seeing marble blocks.

Don't know if you did anything or the host was down when I checked before, but I can see them all again now! (or at least the ones in the OP)
