Maelstrom Posted June 13, 2022 Report Share Posted June 13, 2022 No wonder I was getting murderized by drifters last night! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hal13 Posted July 23, 2022 Report Share Posted July 23, 2022 I see three in that screenshot... there may be even more in other directions to add to the hassle... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maelstrom Posted July 25, 2022 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2022 Never saw such densely packed rifts. Put some torches out to encourage their departure, but that close one hung around for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daretmavi Posted July 28, 2022 Report Share Posted July 28, 2022 Apocalyptic Rift activity? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maelstrom Posted July 28, 2022 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2022 (edited) Fortunately, that night wasn't apocalyptic level activity, but those three rifts sure made it seem like it was. Unfortunately, I couldn't get bees going before winter, but as you can see I'll be ready to properly light my home once I harvest my apiary (currently a 6x6 grid of skeps).

Professor Dragon Posted August 16, 2022 Report Share Posted August 16, 2022 This is why I think we need a way to "spawn proof" an area around our base. Because current methods "force" the builds to have similar architectural details, if you want to minimise drifter annoyances: Permanent lighting everywhere Low ceiling heights to decrease mid-air spawn rates Fences, doors, gates and ditches to minimise drifter movement There should be something like a "Temporal Suppressor" that you can build, which negates spawns within an area. Then you could build massive vaulted ceilings and open plan rooms, and have fields and gardens, without that constant annoyance, while still having a threat level if you leave your safe zone. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maelstrom Posted August 16, 2022 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2022 I think the devs are doing a fantastic job of incorporating Lovecraft into the game. Lovecraft's horror has a scientific/technology base rather than a magic/occult base of most other horror. Read The Shunned House to get an idea of what his kind of horror is like and see how well the devs are representing Lovecraft in the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too many people are requesting temporal suppressors. This should be a feature, either that or a time stability device.

I would like to see some more ruin lore too, and more things with the ruins. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
