Yes It's rare. I think this is how traders should be. The lone trader is just weird.

I do not own or use a Mac, but you should be able to install the full game again if you can't use the update. It doesn't hurt your game at all. The saves and your settings are not impacted if you reinstall the game. It sort of sounds like you tried this, but I don't know why it wouldn't work as normal. Even if it went to a new location that location should run the game.

In general, when the discussion gets this deep into the code of the game, it really takes away from the fun of the game.

There are threads on this in suggestions on the discord, the fourms and probably reddit if I ever went there.

True the Hudclock Mod puts it on the screen. I thought it was in the C menu, which is where it gets everything else for the HUD. Instead type /weather and it will tell you the wind.

It is Crazy, I've found so many bees and never ever in a single pine tree. I feel like I would have just accidentally found one in my hunt for resin. For me its always a maple tree where I find them.

@Discipline Before Dishonor I had so much frustrations with finding bees at first. Nowadays I find them all the time with no issues. IMO the first thing they should do to find bees is turn off the music and put on headphones. Also avoid pine trees. If they spawn in pine trees I've never seen it.

I've started doing the same with base locations. I just dont want the hassle of a mountain or rugged hill spawn anymore. Been there done that, not interested in doing it again.

I traveled 2 days in one playthrough for bees then I logged back into that world a year latter to check out my old world and found bees in the first tree 200 blocks from my base.

That was my original thought, but then again I've also found iron where there was no iron hit when I was trying to find something else mining down. Maybe lead is just so common that it appears to not be correlated when it's just the spawn rate is so turned up it spawns anywhere. I'm not saying I'm right, just something I've never considered. I was talking about lead and not copper. I'm fully aware of how copper spawns. Although I rarely even bother looking for copper after I mine the surface deposits. I usually have more than what I need for the my first copper tools and enough to make some tin to get iron.

I wonder, does lead have "surface " deposits or does it just spawn so close to the surface that it shows up on the surface as nuggets all the time? I've never paid any attention to the prospecting data. I've always assumed they coded in surface deposits to make it easier to get the copper-lead alloy to make lanterns. That was probably a bad assumption.

I usually find so many surface deposits they I dont look for it with prospecting. Just make sure the rock you are prospecting can have lead as an ore is my best advice. The rest is RNG.

Okay, that makes more sense. The ocean generation is still weird in Vanilla. Either you are right next to one or you travel around thousands of blocks and don't see one.

ACHTUNG! Go into a test world and practice with the command before changing it in your favorite world. Save a backup copy of your world. After you change the setting, exit the game and hover your mouse cursor over the world and see if it lists the setting the way you wanted it. It should say the same thing from the world creation menu with all the text. If it is only a number without the "blah blah forest (x%)" then you did it wrong. If it does then go at it in your main world..after you back it up and change the setting. /worldconfig globalforestation <X> <X> = 0 default, the range is 1 to -1 -0.25 (somewhat less forested -25%) -0.50 (Significantly less forested -50% And so on: -0.75, -0.90, -1 To regenerate the terrain you use the /wgen regen command. BUT this completely resets the chunks. It will delete anything you built and restore it to the new world config settings. It will also remove and reset traders. So if you reset a chunk with a trader it will delete that trader. It will spawn a new trader around the same area but not in the exact same spot so be careful if you have a trader you want to keep. /wgen regen <radius> <radius> = number of chunks around you to be reset. I highly advise you do no more than 5. It gets very laggy and you loose control of what you are reseting. Good luck!

I don't know if it had increased or not, but I've always thought it was a bit OP to find one.

@Broccoli Clock No thanks.IMO the forest on default settings are enough to be annoying already. Thankfully they scaled back forests recently so you can ride the elk a little better.

I know others have said it may be possible bit i can confirm You can 100% change this setting via commands. It only affects new chunk generation unless you regen the old chunks which will completely reset them. I can look up the command when Im in front of my computer if you need help.

The only world it would have made sense for me was a playthrough I did with 70% landmass. Did you set up a low landmass world? Even then I'd probably still do the windmill first myself and use the raft until the second growing season.

The boat is definitely not high on my priority list. The windmill and helve are the first place my flax goes for making armor. Chain is woth it if you want to spend time manually beat it out. You can do that at night to not waste time.

Confirmed, its stable inside the RA. One step outside is unstable though.

Every RA I've visited has been stable. What is your game seed? Now I want to check. I don't need any other setting since the RA is a fixed location.

Unless something has changed, inside the archives is stable. Steel plate amor is a trap. I haven't tried it yet with the new healing mechanic, but it will slow down how fast you can heal yourself to the point where it is hard to keep up with healing in long duration fights. Steel chain is overkill already for the archives.

/gm 2 /help worldconfig I don't think the listing is updated anywhere on the Wiki.

Amen, Terra preta isn't a must have unless you are playing something like snowball earth with a very limited growing season. I do make some, because why not and I don't turn my nose up at it if I do find it (yes you can still find it in one vanilla ruin), but it isn't going to make your game any better having 3 pieces of it in your farm.

This happened to me one time. I had to delete the configuration files to reset it. So just delete every configuration file you can find then reinstall the game. I would tell you the exact file but I'm in an airport.
