Overwinter renovations

[Lanceleoghauni]

This will be my second winter in this house, after having tried to move south to warmer climes and being forced to settle as winter overtook me. Progress has been slow given a general lack of metals, but I've gotten a good push lately and I'm hoping to find some iron before my bronze reserves run out. I had a good harvest despite my mediocre soil fertility, thanks to bonemeal and just... So... SO many wolves. Combined with the salt dome I found, food is no problem this winter (last winter was a mostly wolf based diet). It's not as fancy as some of the things I've seen you folks build, but I'm pretty proud of it regardless

Did you start this in 1.19?  All that fire clay shingling would be an even bigger nightmare in 1.20!  I'm surprised that you haven't found high fertility soil yet.

I did start this in 1.19! I only recently found a littttle bit of high fertility soil, but not enough to fully replace my fields, and I've been saving it to try and get some terra preta made. My worldgen was very kind with the amount of fireclay I have, I've hardly found anything else.

mining and digging is something I avoided doing too much of for a long while because I turned on every kind of instability and it's a bit... punishing haha.

Looks cozy.  Not sure I understand why you are putting skeps and farmland together.  Is there something I don't know?

I was thinking the same thing. Cozy. Efficient, what with the paths throughout.

I have not had a chance to look into it yet, but when someone else asked a different question about crops, I noticed the following:

			"*-1": false,
			"*-9": false,
			"*": true
