I am going to be completely honest... I do not like the changes made to berry bushes. This will not only just become a massive headache to deal with, it will discourage already discouraged new players looking for a good early food source as they figure out the rest of the game and prepare themselves with tools to go hunting and maintain that food (cellars). A lot of the recent decisions I wish were given as a changeable option in world creation or via server commands. At the very least, the fertilization process should be tinkered with quite heavily going forward. Everything else though, is quite incredible! I noticed that some of the traders seem to be sporting...ahem....bosoms. Is this a trader option only, or might I finally be able to play as a woman? Or was this an option the entire time and I was just utterly blind to it? lol

Incredible work, thank you! My only feedback is this: please allow mechanical power speed fire starting/spread to be an option to turn off at world creation / a changable server setting.

Just another day with Vintage Story's amazing developers. THANK YOU!

No, thank you. If anything, let us create energy and be able to store it.

I love the rivers mod, but there's a lot wrong with it. It doesn't play well enough for world generation to create anything not wonky. What I mean by this, is not that the mod is bad--quite the opposite!--but that because it's not designed by the same team as Vintage Story, the generation of it doesn't fit. It's like trying to force a puzzle piece from one set to a completely different one. If they code it themselves, it'll function a lot better and fit into world generation going forward.

I'm going to be honest... I do not like this change.

I highly doubt that is the reason. The team seems to fully support the modding community. It would make no sense for them to refuse a feature for their services because they don't want to be responsible for it not working, especially since all other server services do the same and are not responsible for modded server issues. When you mod your game, the size it takes up increases, and further demands stronger hardware to perform better. The cost for that would be a far more reasonable explanation as to why their own server service does not (yet?) allow such a thing.

I don't know why mod support isn't allowed on the official server hosting service, but my guess is it has something to do with cost. If you plan on using mods and until it is supported, I would just suggest using BisectHosting. Super cheap and very, very, very good.

So you want the launcher to come with the files already, and then clicking the button installs it? I'm not really understanding what the current feature isn't doing for you.

I truly wish the worst on the people behind Collective Shout and everyone else pushing this insane garbage. It was the perfect excuse for world governments to implement Orwellian surveillance and thought monitoring. This is only going to get worse. People need to start protesting however they can before it is too late. The only way these kinds of people will listen, is through unrest and monetary loss.

God, I love this game! Thank you so much for the update! I seriously cannot wait to see what the future will bring us!

It really does seem like some people just want something to be angry about, to grab a pitchfork for. It's become extremely clear that a few people in this thread think they have a better understanding of not only game development than the team that is actually invovled, but that they think they know better about the situation--whether financial or progress wise--than the game's creator and dev team. It's quite something...

So you think you know better about the situation than Tyron does, somehow. Will you explain why you think this way, or is this the extent of your answer? It seems based off this answer, you haven't really thought about it deeply at all.

It isn't. 3-4 devs will be making a side game that'll take it [development] slow. This team will not take away time, nor devs, from VS because it will be seperate. Do you care to explain how you have come to that conclusion?

How can it be feature creep when it's not Vintage Story? It's going to be two completely different games. It's not going to impact the game we are playing at all. They wouldn't fund a new game if they didn't have security for the first game. Do you think he made this decision just blindly or what?
