It takes 1-2 days to despawn.

I'm pretty sure seraphs are brought back from the dead, though?

IIRC, the breaking was broken for a while, but they fixed it so it breaks again.

The hotsprings reduce drops now. Pit kilns still work well, I think.

Spike damage is affected by player momentum. Oddly, they can also save you from being killed by fall damage sometimes.

I think there's a caveat that it's only in certain growth phases.

You have to swap directly from axe to axe for it to work. Switching to another item type resets it.

But then you've got a bunch of tool racks you don't need.

Was that a somewhat recent fix? I remember you could chop with a bronze axe and switch to a stone one at the last second. (This was 1.18, I think?)

This is flat-out wrong. Rich people literally eat flakes of gold: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edible_gold They don't go around eating flakes of silver, as silver can turn your skin blue (argyria) just from prolonged touching. Both metals are slightly toxic (gold when injected directly into the bloodstream), but you won't suffer any serious effects from dining off either. So why no gold dinnerware, then? It's too flimsy. Even silverware is an alloy (sterling silver) because pure silver is even softer than gold. Want something golden? You'd have to use brass, which is for the poors.

Immaculate conception. Pig Jesus soon.

*approaches stew* "Why am I hearing boss music?"

You'd just keep one pristine item in a chest.

It's hard to get many of a single type so I just eat whatever I can raw while exploring. I consume the smallest stacks first, so sometimes I end up with a large enough stack of something for cooking. Onions are just more convenient if you're going to be hanging around base. Higher nutrition and last longer. I think mushrooms need more varied stats rather than just toxicology.

What are the fruitpress fixes? Mash duplication/stacking issues?

It's for cupronickel alloy, IIRC.

Looks like a chair. Imagine if it turned out to be just a prototype ejector seat. You sit on it and pull the lever, only to be yeeted "translocated" into the air and fall to your death. Misinterpreting the manual.

Can relate. Spent countless hours on Myst and Riven back in the day. Finally went back and beat them a decade later with walkthroughs. Recently played Mother and Breath of Fire I+II on the Switch's NES. Ended up looking at online maps and guides a whole bunch because I don't have the patience to explore while being constantly interrupted by random battles. Nintendo Wii was released 18 years ago. Gamecube 23 years ago (right after 9/11 terror attack). Feels like there was a bunch of time between those, and not so much up to the current date. Anyway, that other block game's version 1.0 was over 13 years ago, just in case that makes anyone else feel old.

Is it possible the dirt block is protecting the grass from below? Disagree. The other block game doesn't tell you how to build circuits with the red dust, yet all the minutiae are found on the wiki. An explanation would be out of place in-game, yet you shouldn't need a degree in electrical engineering to figure out how to build the more interesting things. Same goes for how fast you burn hunger doing a given action without having to run a bunch of personal experiments. The wiki is more convenient than tracking down a forum or Reddit post somewhere. If it's just going to be a repeat of the handbook, then why have an editable wiki versus an online manual?

You can cook with latent heat. Just let the temperature fall back down first, assuming a single piece of peat burns long enough to heat the oven that much to begin with. (Does the oven stay at a fixed temp for a while and then suddenly start rapidly dropping? IIRC, smelting works that way, but I forget about ovens. It's not particularly realistic.)

The green circle that sends you to the first unread post is present in the "Unread Content" page, but doesn't show up when browsing a forum section. Clicking the topic title just sends you to page 1, and viewing the wrong page clears the "Unread replies" line, so you can't even work backwards from the last page. Edit: The Content View Behavior setting seems to alleviate this issue. Also, the bold effect on the titles of topics with unread posts is hard to distinguish on mobile. Having the green circle present would alleviate this without any extra effort.

Well, they possibly got sent forward in time. Lore (Seraphim tapestry, not sure if there's another) implies they may have been brought to the present from the moment of their natural deaths, which would tie directly to the respawn mechanic. However, it's uncertain if they experienced the intermediate time or not. If their consciousness was drifting through the aether at a rate of 1 second per second, then it's not meaningful time travel. Did Jonas invent a mechanical intelligence, or did he shove an existing ghost into a machine? "Eidolon" means "spirit", which may imply they're just possessed, like a golem. Frankenstein created life, but he used Abby Normal's an existing brain. It seems to be the world addressing the player (who is basically analogous to the seraph, so yeah).

You can absolutely still lose them in trees and bushes, and each loss is much more costly.

AI is way beyond pre-apocalypse tech level, which was pre-electricity. (Possibly 1400s, the era of Da Vinci.) It was a feudal society on the verge of revolution. Confirmed lore is that inevitable extinction of all life via plague was traded for the current state of things. Temporal gears were more eldrich alchemy than understood tech, even before. No indication that time travel was attempted. They decided to take a sledgehammer to the clock instead, upending the natural order to the point where the Rot could no longer progress. It's not directly hinted at, but I've inferred that drifters are the new state of rot zombies. (Rust is rot for iron.) Everyone who succumbed before the "fix", non-contagious but still deadly. Uncertain if they're theoretically finite in number, or they just endlessly reset like seraphs (players).

Apples and some others do, at least. IIRC, the tropical ones (lychees, pomegranates?) aren't great in that department. I think even peaches aren't good?
