Pine (bottles) -> Oak (barrels, great carp exp) -> Bamboo (avg 2.5 logs/action)

That's what we need the most of right now but if you find yourself liking something else more, we basically always want everything.

Also I checked today and we're rank #42 now. :toot:

Oak also gets you acorns which are more directly usable than cones, but you get fewer logs.

For example, one orchard (2 slots, so one house) and one Cherry can spawn anywhere from 10 to 150 cherries in the next 24 hours...and you need to save just one of those cherries to get another 10-150 the day after, and so on.

1 cherry goes to 10-50 on a one slot orchard. Most of the orchards I see are 2 slot orchards so 2 cherries->20-100 in 24 hours. Vegetable/herb gardens are even worse if you cycle them twice a day because they have 20+ planting slots

Edit:10-50 slots, which is what I care about because it's time

Flour is our big bottleneck because we have to go pine cones --> pine nuts --> flour, which is a lovely long proccess that gives very little EXP. I'm just finishing up a batch now, should have around 2000.

You can also do Sunflowerseeds --> flour, but sunflower seeds are from extensions and are pretty slow to get.

Sunflowers are better than pine nuts aside from the planting time restriction imo

In terms of time / actions / effort required vs. exp gained, would it make more sense to try and grind out full sets of pink Blue clothes, rather than going for pies? Even if we wind up with a substantial surplus of non-pink Blue clothes, it should help reduce the total pie consumption.

We can do both at the same time without any issue. Flax plants don't compete with pie resources other than just being another gathering action

Flour can use any kind of nuts--no one yet has mentioned pumpkin seeds, chestnuts, or acorns. I don't know if this makes a huge difference on the XP gains, but it's not as if you have to grind pine just to get flour.

Please don't use pumpkin seeds for flour

Guess I should make some sort of post on this project, this'll have to do until I can get a more detailed writeup together.

PROJECT MANA SPLURGE for lack of a better name

Probably way out of date spreadsheet

Goal: Get lots of mana foods and help get people up to the magic breakpoints (5, 15, 30) faster.

Step 1: Lots of potions (see spreadsheet). Woodland potions for spotted treefrogs; fish finding potions for purple snails/sea urchins. Gem potions because we only need blue mushrooms for the other two, so we'll have loads of extra red mushrooms.

Things we need: Ginseng, Lavender, Mandrake, Red and Blue mushrooms. Parchment, logs, bottles, water. Crush all those things in the first list. Then make potions.

Once we have 10k of each potion made we'll move on to step 2: actually gathering the mana stuff. Then step 3 is cooking the mana foods, and step 4 is eating them.

This has been designed so people of all levels can contribute. Best ways to help right now are to hike in DF and gather mushrooms.

There are some side projects that higher levels can contribute to: mining white sand and chopping heartwood for the better bottle recipe; chopping larch (with potions on) for larch leaves (which go into northern salads); stingrays, stingray skins, and kites for lightning catching.

Ruggan posted:

why the weird spider web instead of something simpler like a bar graph?

that graph creates "areas" that present misleading info... for instance, if speed and gathering were adjacent, they'd make a much greater "area" for gray than how they're currently set up

not a big deal, just wondering what led you to that vis

The area and even the axis scales don't matter. It makes it easy to see that we're getting more xp than other guilds in most skills. With bars you'd have a harder time seeing that at a glance since you'd either have to look at every set of bars or be really confused with stacked bars. See wikipedia on radar charts. The light grey coloring for slumber is awful though

Line chart would probably be better since it's basically the same thing unwrapped on a linear axis instead of radial. I still wouldn't say bars are better

Just to be clear that was from a different game, not amar, and the dev on it seems like he has his priorities straight when it comes to prioritizing security fixes. Dude got handed what was probably a massive dumpsterfire of a code base.

There's a bunch of other games similar to amar that exist and most are horribly coded it's fun to pop in and see how backwater this game genre is in general. It's like going to the internet, 2001.

the same tag stripping code is applied to forums posts. they removed all of the text on the html guide. any post made prior to the change still works though

and that's bad because goons actively used magic while the top guilds are essentially combat-only, so it works out to yet another change that actively hurts our growth rate while having no effect on the guilds we're trying to catch up to.

Bloody mary's mirror gives +2 regen with 0 requirements. They're far more valuable as spell duration equipment than as mana regen equipment though, but you could definitely use them to boost you from 1->5 magic faster...although you could probably dip into the lightning stash for that too.

Same idea for the wedding corsage. Technically usable as a replacement aurora with no requirement, but again far more valuable as part of a casting set. We also don't have a ton of either
