I agree @Rhyagelle. More time to read handbook will save a lot of souls. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DejFidOFF Posted October 13, 2022 Report Share Posted October 13, 2022 The same fix ( game pauses) when handbook opens will be nice applying at start of the game when player setting the character or after /charset command. If it's done ( what I don't know) it's great 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than that, is there a rough estimate on how many subversions 1.17 will probably have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hal13 Posted October 18, 2022 Report Share Posted October 18, 2022 VS is my leisure game and I jump onto the newest main version usually when changes, breaking mods I use, become unlikely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maelstrom Posted October 18, 2022 Report Share Posted October 18, 2022 I'd expect that 1.17 is now at the point where mods won't be broken by any future patches. Based on my experience Tyron is at the point of cleaning up loose ends and starting work on 1.18. I suspect there's maybe 1 more update, if that.

Straille Posted October 24, 2022 Report Share Posted October 24, 2022 i absolutely agree pumpkin carving shouldn't be only available for real oct & nov if you have pumpkins, why not be allowed to carve them whenever? or at least only restrict them to the in-game spooky months but i don't think they should be permanent light sources like minecraft. pumpkins rot.

Manimal Posted June 28 Report Share Posted June 28 I wanted to carve a pumpkin SO bad. Then understood the fine print. Only in "Real life months". DARN IT! Yes, I know that there are mods to do this. Was hoping I wouldn't need one. Guess I'm off to get Dana's Tweaks. Still one of the best games. Thanks Devs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could try adjusting the date on your computer's calendar, since I'm assuming that's what the game probably checks to figure out whether or not to enable the special pumpkins. Assuming it works, you'll just have to remember to fix the date whenever you're done playing if you want the correct date displayed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thorfinn Posted June 29 Report Share Posted June 29 Wonder why it doesn't do game October rather than IRL October. I get it with Terraria, where there are not seasons, but... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
