The default whitelisting is a PITA for headless linux servers. You have to bootstrap it with at least one user manually. The easiest way I found is to start a local game and whitelist yourself (/player [username] whitelist on). You should get a reply that you are whitelisted for a long time. Now, quit the local session and find the player whitelist file ("C:\Users\[name]\AppData\Roaming\VintagestoryData\Playerdata\playerswhitelisted.json"). Open that file and copy the entire contents. Make sure your server is stopped or it will overwrite the edit you are about to make! In a terminal window on the server, use your favorite editor to replace the '[]' in the whitelist file there with the stuff you copied locally. It should look exactly like the original file: [ { detailed stuff } ] Now start the server and you should be able to log in and use server commands to whitelist your friends.

My pet peeve is idle animations like stretching and yawning. Please make them stop! They add nothing to game play and are simply visual clutter. At least add a disable option.

I just found a woolen shirt which has the same thermal as a regular shirt. This is silly. Woolen pants have +1 thermal over regular pants, as they should.

At least we might find spools of woolen yarn among the forgotten chests in ruins since there were presumably ordinary sheep before the rot?

Unfortunately, bighorn sheep are not fluffy. But there is obviously wool from somewhere since woolen pants exist.

12 portions water and 12 eggs in a cooking pot should produce 12 hard boiled eggs with extended spoilage time and eaten out of hand (no bowl). 25 boiled eggs in 50l of brine should pickle eggs for very long spoilage time like pickled vegetables. Sat in all cases should follow the standard conventions for cooked/pickled food.

Discord came through! I now have a prototype mod to wake at dawn. A bit hacky but it seems to work for single player. Need multiplayer on servers too though..

Great mod. Can you add a way to relocate it on the screen? At least options for lower-left, etc.if dragging won't work?

Haven't tried there. I'm beginning to think these forums are ignored by the 'serious people'. Game forums often are.

Because, unless you are a compulsive poster or a troll, you would not have taken the time to post your first response, much less the rest, if you truly didn't care. You clearly disagree with my suggestion so strongly that you felt the need to chime in here with 'do not do this'. No matter how much you digress with soft words, your purpose seems clear. I wouldn't make such an effort unless I thought the suggestion would damage the game. my suggestion is absolutely innocuous and would have zero impact on your play style. I guarantee the devs are spending far more time on other features you also will not use. All of this said, this forum smells like a honey trap the devs rarely if ever pay attention to and diverts players from complaining directly, Otherwise, it would be part of the git repo workflow. So I doubt you ever have to worry about my distracting them. I'm done beating this horse. It's dead, Jim.

Maple trees everywhere but no maple syrup?!? Bronze or better forging of taps. Buckets to collect the sap. A non-alcohol reason to craft the boiler, no condenser needed (30l of sap reduces to 2l of syrup)/ Alternative to honey in food recipes but not poultices No wax, of course Sap collection only works in March

Hello? Is this thing on?

You know there is a whole tier of crafting advanced devices using exotic components that must be harvested from various spiders, right? Part of the rest of what the game offers. And, no, typing console commands is not a solution to an already immersion disrupting hack around. I'm sorry @Thorfinn, but IMHO I don't think you are playing the game other than superficially and ignoring much of what makes it unique, If that's your thing. enjoy, but don't ruin things for the rest of us.

Forums like this are 'soft' voting venues where the devs will form opinions based on the feedback a post attracts. If they pay attention at all and don't use them as a honey trap to distract players from contacting them directly. Although certainly polite, your post was, in effect, a 'no' vote, whatever disclaimers you included. That's what I reacted to. What I would really prefer the devs focus on is fixing the myriad buggy and discrepant mechanics that are a continuous source of minor irritation and will never get fixed if they continue relentlessly pushing out new features. Technical debt has ruined many promising games and I would like this one to live a long and happy life.

OK. I don't see how you get to the end stage by Fall of the first year even working through the night and the math on animals says gen 2 is almost impossible on that time scale. That said, I would guess you have experienced less than "everything ... the game has to offer" as I am still discovering new underground structures and new landscapes I haven't seen before and you cannot have done things like plant a fruit orchard (easily a two+ year activity) or built a substantial dwelling. You and I have very different play styles and that's why I want options to suit mine without denying you yours. I ask for the same courtesy.
