I disabled rifts on the surface and temporal storms because surface enemies are super duper easy to fight and are more annoying then challenging or engaging. Maybe this will change with the combat overhaul but outside of caves, monsters are only going to be a threat in huge numbers (high or apocalyptic rift activity), and in that case I can just run into my house as there's not really an incentive to fight them outside of the occasional flax drop or even rarer temporal gear. Same deal for temporal storms, it was spooky the first time but is not engaging and unrewarding, so it turns into "sit in your house" similar to high rift activity. Side note, its kinda funny how the horrifying monsters are physiologically terrifying but a pushover to fight, while animals like elk, boar, wolves, and bears are far more mundane but much more threatening to fight (and much more rewarding).

World was made on 1.22.3, currently on 1.22.5. Bought a map to a treasure hunter, went to the red X, and there's no trader in sight. Is this just a bug, or are they underground?

nvm it was radiance and rust

It's late fall and I was mining copper deep underground, when this BANGER track started playing, one that I hadn't heard before. The synths were going CRAZY, but despite skimming the soundtrack on bandicamp, I can't find the name of the track. Does that ring any bells for yall?

You might have something funky going on with your Bazzite install, for me it worked perfectly right out of the gate. Maybe you can post your specs so we can see if theres anything funny going on. Additionally as you said you are linux illiterate, might be worth checking if you installed Bazzite to a hard drive, or are running in the installation environment.

True, I didn't think about long term preservation. Come to think of it, taking a crock and a bowl would be a lot more efficient compared to what I normally do, which is to take 2-4 bows of food with me

I'm currently in the bronze age, so there might be better options down the line. From what I can see, pies seem to be a really good food item. They can cover 2 or even 3 food groups (always has grain, can have vegetables, fruit, protein, or vegetables and protein), can stack, and last for over a week! Is there a better way to transport soup I'm not aware of, or are pies just that good?
