I build these 100-block tall structures, then glide off from one to the other. We can travel 3000 blocks in a couple of in-game hours.

Yup right now there's no point to it. I hope eventually something like that makes it into the game, though, when it gets more dejanked and balanced out. I like triggering my thalassophobia.

Dirt blocks make for great bear-slaying outposts, like what @Thorfinn mentioned. Also, glider airports.

This 101%! In the 2022 trailer (which was what sold me on the game), observing wildlife was marketed as one of the features of VS. While the AI is not bad for the most part, I would say it still leaves a lot to be desired, especially in how they interact with one another. I was disappointed that drifters could actually spawn 2m away from you in thin air, or wolves could rubberband back to their spawn (assuming my eyes didn't deceive me). I am hopeful the AI will continue to improve instead of remaining at status quo, since it can open new doors to gameplay opportunities.

I think it's still there. Can be toggled with Ctrl + N (or was it Shift + N?)

Yeah I think the interface needs a lot of de-janking. It's not consistent and can get pretty confusing if you don't have tooltips enabled. Using buckets is a good example.

Yep pretty much this. I don't need rocket fast, but it shouldn't sink like a paper plane.

You'll want to crouch and right click. Make sure there is no grass on the block.

The speed is alright IMO, but the descent is too great. For an item where you have to travel thousands of blocks and go through a lot of deaths and resources to retrieve, it's pretty underwhelming. A nice novelty item for sure, and certainly preferable to just walking/running, but doesn't blow one away (no pun intended).

Yup, tried and tested. Works every time. Then just grab your weapons and poke it to death EDIT: But! When jumping up to reach the ladder, make sure you are not standing next the wall, otherwise you are going to hit the "bottom" of the ladder and fail to grab on to it. I died a few times because of that.

Sails for windmills

For bears, you just need to put the first ladder two blocks up from the ground.

That's why I used the phrase "consistency in logic" rather than "realistic" in my post Or "consistency in design logic" if you will.

Definitely agree with this. IMO game balance is important, but not when it sacrifices consistency in logic.

Huh. This is interesting. I know it affected crops, but didn't know it affected livestock too. That explains why I haven't had any new animals birthed. Thanks!

I would suggest downloading one of the animal trapping mods until Tyron implements something similar in the vanilla game. It makes ranching less painful.

Two ways: Use your cursor to click the item from inventory and place it into the off-hand slot Select the item (i.e., hold it in your right hand), then press X Note that only some items can be held in the off-hand, like shields and light sources.

Interesting. Thanks for the info!

In my new world, stored food perish speed in storage vessels ranges from 0.9x to 1.3x. It never went above 1x in my previous world. It's strange that food takes longer to rot in my inventory than in storage vessels and chests. Could this be a glitch? (Edit) Resolved it after putting the vessels in the cellar. Still, strange that the multiplier could go higher than 1x.

Same, to play devil's advocate, I like that everything is more spaced out now, with more plains in-between. Now I do think there is room for improvement of course. I still am not seeing oceans or really large bodies of water; mountain ranges also seem less organic. But overall I can't say I'm disappointed. I have hope that in the dejank update, Tyron will continue to improve on the formula.

I wish I could hold stuff that's 299°C with my bare hands IRL

I was just about to suggest Ctrl-A functionality. Also, the ability to use Ctrl to move the typing cursor through whole words, and Shift to highlight multiple letters. I do a lot of word processing as part of my job, so I always subconsciously press Ctrl-A or Shift-Left Arrow in-game, forgetting that they don't work!

Adding on to the above, check out Jaybyrde's tutorial video. It's very comprehensive.

You might want to try an external host like Bisect Hosting. I really like BH. Haven't been disappointed thus far.

Ahh if you look at the FAQ of this page: It looks like built-in VS server hosting doesn't have mod support
