The last time I tried to play The Forest my potato of a laptop didn't like it and I didnt investigate too much to see if there we're any Hitman-issue diabolical tricks to fix that.

I can't actually find how to craft improvised dressings in Card Survival. I assume it'll happen when I figure out cloth? which will probably be after this guy dies from accumulated monkey bites

There's essentially no reason to put more than a leaf bed in the shed, you'll get a mud hut running soon enough. also, when you have a hut, you can throw all your rotten food in the shed so you don't have to smell it  optimal play is to do everything that can be done inside, inside, but it's a little annoying to keep going in and out In my own playthrough I seem to have stabilized in the dry season. It was a bit touch and go for a while there but keeping yourself constantly soaked in seawater goes a long way towards both keeping your mood from collapsing and reducing how much you sweat

CuddleCryptid posted:Part of the issue is that the game time runs in chunks so there's no "weave the fronds for 15 mins, get the food off the fire, finish the fronds." You're there for 45 minutes flat, so something that burns in 30 minutes on the fire can't be cooked while you work. Just an example, but in that way time can really get away from you. if you start a 45-minute task when you put a 30-minute-to-cook item on the campfire, you'll come out before it burns RandomBlue posted:You start something cooking and forget and commit to something that takes long enough to burn your food? The game gives no warning or prompt about it, you just lost your poo poo. in addition to the other comments, may i perhaps interest you in smoking things on the stove? you'll still get annoyed when you burn crabs but a lot of your cooking products will continue to the smoking stage, then sit there happily for hours if you forget (while the stove wastes a bunch of fuel lol) Rynoto posted:Burned food sucks but is ultimately replaceable as hunger actually takes a long while to kill you and doesn't have any longterm negative effects unless you do it for extended periods of times. there's supposedly a hidden nutrition meter that mostly impacts how quickly you get hungry but i don't know if that's true e: hooray, dry season survived, unless there's another curveball out there waiting to touchdown me for the checkmate, this character's going to make it to the end Goatse James Bond fucked around with this message at 19:44 on Sep 28, 2022 |

My gut tells me sleeping gives more mood and rest for the buck than two naps. My gut could be wrong. and even if so I very often nap anyway so I can start some more stuff smoking or respond to rain in the medium season or whatever

It gives like 10 each when you grind it. you should what I mean, I have enough of a conch supply from when I was terrified of food shortage but what also dry season tip: load up some empty containers with seawater every couple days if you're not actively living on the coast, staying wet cuts your water consumption by like 30% and doesn't cut into your precious freshwater supply if you do it that way e: to put it another way, salt water is worth about half as much as fresh water, which is a shitload in the dry season Goatse James Bond fucked around with this message at 00:18 on Oct 5, 2022 |

that seems obvious in hindsight
|
my understanding of animal populations is that while they're a tracked number, it's tracked by zone and they'll repopulate that zone and adjacent ones as long as there are some, so unless you make a concerted effort to wipe out (say) lizards or monkeys they'll still exist in whatever zone you're not actively purging, but they'll be much less common in (say) the jungle

Bay is incredibly appealing until it suddenly isn't. I personally use the jungle as my base - bugs can be obnoxious if you're not a start that trivializes them, but otherwise you're one zone from the wetlands for emergency water, one zone from the bay for all the good stuff, not extra-dry, and not extra-hot. Also, loads of construction and crafting material from exploring or just plain axing. slapping down a shed in the bay isn't the worst idea though, just in case

The only? self renewing dry season water source in the western? island is inside the wetlands cave. I don't think it's possible to survive on it exclusively, but it'll stretch your banana trees long enough to find more banana trees.

unconvinced that chilis are actually renewable, I've been exploring the 100% explored western grasslands for like a week and haven't found a single darn plant obvs once I get one I'll be running farm plots for the rest of time but unfortunately I didn't save one last chili for that

Rynoto posted:How many did you use? As it only spawns in the grasslands you could theoretically depopulate it but you'd have to be seriously trying. Otherwise just keep searching at low odds or wait a week or two before searching again once it replenishes. only like five, that cannot possibly be all the chili's at day 100 or whatever it was when I pushed that first exploration batch

Card Survival update: there have been no goddamn chilis in either grasslands for long enough I'm suspecting it's a bug / update related problem. I only harvested maybe ten plants total, over an extended period of time. At this point I'd edit my save file for it, except it's really hard to figure out. I literally just need one, been sifting through gastric leavings on the off chance it has a low chance of giving me a chili

chili grassland number is at 700 and very slowly going up, so i suppose it's actually working somewhat as intended

Or is it a wait for it on sale kind of game? it's probably worth $25, i've got almost fifty hours in but haven't quite won once (but i'm apparently really awful at optimizing it), but it's definitely worth $15 so unless you're really hankering for it you might wanna wait
