Thanks for fixing fishing. At least I hope its fixed. Getting ready to try a new game with the new version.

Myst the crossbow seems to have been made more powerful recently. I love it but it does seem a bit overpowered. Personally I would like to see it made back like it was but a new version made with steel parts available as an upgrade.

Jas
For goodness sake make the steel version more durable so I don't have to save every time I try to attack something. Very annoying to die because my crossbow breaks.

Played last months version for a year and a half but never saw a hive.

old Eeeek! I did it again! New Download !

Please down load the latest version 07-05-14. I found an issue causing game lag in the new "speed" weight-check script...in the 07-04 version.

Very very Sorry!

I did not test-play long enough to notice this lag, not until this morning did I realize it.

Move your "save" over to continue your game.

Don't worry about it these things happen. Just got my new fish habitat made

I have to go into inventory to boil water one at a time should be able to put it in my hand and use the E button too.

ill have to work something out with that, should be able to script it so if it is in your hand, click right mouse, to boil at a fire.

for now you can put it in the distiller as it has a "short" boil time compared to distilling grain water or saltwater. Saltwater is longest.

or use a clay pot at a grill/fire...you can add several bottles at a time (POT+WATER=BOILED WATER req:fire)

-------------
p.s. I also added the combo for the FishAttractor to the diary in the new update 2net+10cord+6bamboo+sm.rawfishmeat
...and Also your Knife+Any raw Fish = small raw fish to help compliment the attractor combo.

.Awesome update!!!
The speed/weight update is a GAME CHANGER!!! Thank you. May I suggest to introduce backpack levels?
In my humble opinion you next might want to give it a thought about implementing “food decay”
All the other additions/fixes are great too. I have not yet made use of wolves and hives. How do wolves work again? We should be able to build a beehive (access without injury with proper gear, plus use it for other products
Testing:
•     The forge system looks good to me.
Quick Fixes:
•     Cookie = -1 exhaustion
•     Long handle + knife = short handles
•     Cut in HALF survivor skill gain. Heh, go ahead and do so for ever other skill as well., or otherwise raise the skill levels, i.e., 100 = 200)
•     More incentive to move on fishing skill.
Practical Suggestions
•     Dismounting a wall with a hammer, similar to grill. (Get most resources back, i.e., recoup 80% logs, 50% nails). Same thing with all other buildings
Ideas:
A.     Stone wall: We should have a better defensive structure for the natives to attack, and the natives should be attracted to all fences and walls.
B.     More plants:
a.      Food: onions, scallions, peppers, lettuce, spinach, etc (make the pirate (merchant) be the holder of all the seeds, or ½ and ½ wth one of the trbes.)
C.     Animals:
a.     FROGS (and you should consider different soundtrack for the night, more frogs, etc) AND RATS (extremely real and useful). Perhaps introduce different traps.
b.     Let us build cages and parrot bird nests, i.e., parrot stick around and reproduce. Can harvest eggs and feathers.
D.     Injuries:
a.     Infection: Health and Exhaustion drag, i.e., % chance after any bite, arrow, native, fall, etc. Plus got to come up with some antibiotics.
b.     Burn: Treat fire carefully! Need some kind of ointment. I guess oil + some herbs, or some weird water creature.
c.     Cold/Allergies. Season dependent. Introduce teas, more herbs, mint, ginger, chamomile, etc. For now just assign current graphics to these.
d.     Insolation: During summer the heat can get to you. Rush to the water to find relief, but keep an eye on the sharks.

Questions:
•      Can you make it so once you order monkeys to a task they keep at it until ordered to do something different?

Coconut oil is a good natural remedy. Traditionally it was made by grinding up coconut meat then fermenting it and skimming off the oil. Still today Filipinos swear that method is better for healing oil than just pressed oil.

Would love to have monkeys trained to put things in a particular storage as well as keep at it.

Of course if you could hire natives that would be even better. With natives you could even hire warriors for your wall defense.

Been toying with an idea for making peace with the natives. Pay a "damages fee" like 300 meat, wine,rum or some such for each native you kill to make peace plus another batch to make friends. Use the pirate as the intermediary. Maybe its so high because he takes half? He is a pirate after all

Still cant get all the iron sprinkled without removing some but its definitely improved.

Even with the fish fish habitat they leave to easy can you make it so they don't leave so fast?

Edit: I cant figure out how to prospect for clay.

old Forge Patch

hey guys...here is a tiny file patch for the forge. I have just put 3 hours into making it better.

1) I re-arranged the pattern you set the ore down in.
2) Raised the ore up off the fire a touch.
3) Raised the roof a touch.
4) Increased the radius of the entire base

a lot more room to work it, and easy to sprinkle.

REMOVED
Forge_Patch
download tiny 1 second folder, unzip the folder, copy&paste or drag&drop BOTH the 2 files into the /sys folder

Quote
Aedo!! Good to see you again!

really nice ideas! I get the feeling you want me to work on this mod forever and ever
lol

but hey, the wolfdog is in the diary operations tab. But I will say it takes practice to make the dog perform. Throw him 2 small raw meat to tame him...E button to pet him the first time to make him your pet. He then follows your "dog whistle" commands.

further more, you should blow the whistle every 2-3 seconds to make him perform...unless you command him to STAY or GO...then you only blow once. When attacking a target YOU need to be near the target and blow the whistle to make the dog COME to you. When he is near blow the attack command to make him go to the target...WHEN HE IS AT THE TARGET BLOW THE WHISTLE TO MAKE HIM BITE THE TARGET...so he must be close to the target...and it takes a lil practice.

the whistle works like the shovel sort of...right click to set the commands, left click to blow the whistle and make him perform the command...the whistle needs to be in your HAND.

p.s. I will respond to the other stuff next post bro.

John,
there is a forge fix above as you see. Myst wanted this better too...and it is way better now with the patch.

I cant make it to easy to fish...just wait till you try out the Fish Attractor and you will maybe understand why

the STEEL shovel can prospect clay now...and crystal. I see i forgot to add them to the descriptions in the shovel commands. BUT they are in the PROCESS BAR you will see
"Prospecting for iron, clay, or stone"
"Prospecting for coal, crystal, or gold"


I will have that fixed for next update...for now you will simply see it when you find it...but it will still stay YOU FOUND IRON! or COAL!

good ideas about the coconut oil, maybe a antibiotic like Aedolaw said?


Quote
Myst,
I re-worked the forge today...it's really good now ;)...i have a suggestion too.

When you are going to forge for a few...set your ore,gloves,and dust to like key 1,2 and 3...so you can simply scroll your mouse wheel between tasks. Click the item in your rucksack and hit the 1 key. then 2, then 3 etc...then use your mouse wheel to switch em during play.

I do this when cooking too...set my pan, pot, and food items to keys then cook away scrolling the mouse wheel.

if you fall under attack you can hit your C button/rucksack and click your weapon of choice and put it directly in your hand...or set weapons back to keys when your done with your project.

When you cook and the food is finished the game stalls for up to 3 seconds. Seems worse when cooking large raw fish that you get from sharks and whales.

Yea coconut oil is used for all kinds of thing burns, sunburns topical antiseptic etc... Also the only really healthy heat stable oil you should cook with.

Lots of info on the net about the health benefits of coconut oil if you want to look. For example:

Fun fact: Lauric acid is the most plentiful MCFA found in mother’s milk AND coconut oil. And the ratio of lauric acid to other MCFAs in human milk is IDENTICAL to that in coconut oil.

Edit: Why is the fish attractor locked my fishing skill is 320 I have a dock and a fly rod?

2Edit: Something wrong with the sheep no wool or milk and not multiplying.

hey john,
no attractor cuz your playing a save, and already was passed skill level 125. Download this zip below and unzip it, copy the 1 file into the /sys folder.

then build a dock! it should unlock.

REMOVED
[url=]Fish_Attractor_for_saved_game[/url] (see page 51)

any NEW game this file is not needed, or if your fish skill is below 125.

p.s. if your sheep is not working then you do not have the latest download? 07-05-14...they are broke in the 04 update, another reason i posted the 05. Download 05 and then put that patch file above in it to unlock the fish attractor
p.p.s. when you put 1 piece of food on the grill and it is done cooking you hear 1 "sizzle" sound file play. When you have 10 on the grill you hear 10 sound files play all at once. That is what causes that lag spike...i have yet to come up with an idea to make only 1 sound play when you have multiple items on the grill cooking.

Myst,
awww i'm so sorry to hear that. I hope things get better for you very soon. I will say a prayer for you hun, it's all I can do.

if you did not start over, or kept that save, I can give you a zip file to fix it so you can continue on with working sheep....let me know.

I have also just figured out the sound file for the cooking...now only 1 sound plays regardless of how many items are done cooking...thanks!
FIXED

ok man cool.

and hey, your pretty keen on this. I was just searching for plums myself. Looks like I somehow remove the wrong ID maybe when I was doing something, but i'll keep a lookout for plum to spawn on a new map. Otherwise until the next update you might have to find them in a crate on the shore...if you get lucky.

I will check into it tomorrow i'm outta time today.

if you need poo to make fertilizer...drink unboiled water till you get sick...then eat charcoal to heal...and you will poo 3x.

Thanks. I'm truly touched by your concern, but no worries. I can get through it. Always have, and things are progressing slowly, but progressing nonetheless. Thanks again.

Anyways I believe you were also going to add a sizzle for the iron at one point. My bad short-term memory wastes more charcoal than anything =P

Myst,
yes we could probably do that...so if your away from the forge you know they turned red hot. Like cooking.

john,
I checked the scripts and the plum IS somewhere on the island. I had put in a safeguard script long ago for spawning objects, where it will always spawn at least 1 of the object. The plum is included in that at it is present...So I will search around my island more cuz it has to be there somewhere. (dang large islands!)

pirate selling seeds has been mentioned before...yes, he will have more to sell in the near future. They would be expensive seeds though I think.

Everything should be expensive from a pirate. It makes you only buy what you need unfortunately he has nothing I need as it costs so much I can make my own before I can afford it. Now if you really want to get me excited have him sell a solar powered lamp post

Well I guess I just hadn't found it yet plums and coffee can be hard to find. I never said it wasn't there just hadn't found it yet.

I wish their was some way to make the map spawn a couple of mini islands. Is that possible or do you know?

I don't think the sheep are working right yet but I just started a new map will let you know in a few game days.
