Download Speccy from CCleaner https://www.ccleaner.com/speccy When it runs, click the storage option and collapse all the entries. You want to see the drive clearly marked as an SSD. See my example here:

Yeah, given that some story locations are several thousand blocks away, if you never eat, you'll never make it there before you die.

Thermal throttling and disk usage lock... which shouldn't be a thing unless the laptop still has a HDD instead of SSD...which I didn't think possible in 2022 when that laptop was originally launched. Crack it open and confirm it has an SSD and also dust it out/redo the thermal paste on the heat sinks. I had an old laptop that ran HOT all the time until I replaced the thermal paste and blew all the dust out and it has ran fine ever since. The keyword here, folks, is Acer Nitro 5 an517-55 gaming laptop. Any issues will center around its own performance.

Black bronze is so hard to get because what it requires to smelt it can be more easily obtained after progressing to Iron tech. It's only there to reward you with a better bronze for using any lucky gold nugget finds from panning, pretty sure, but otherwise, you're stuck at waiting until Iron to mine out the quartz veins for their gold.

Do replies work, too?

A friend of mine is saying that she cannot post on the forums right now after the migration. I'm just writing this to see if I'm affected, too. you can safely ignore it. or don't. I'm not your mom, just teh pizza lady.

oh yeah that's definitely one of those that requires you to pop in and out of the past/present multiple times to just see how it changes and where you can go. Gotta time those swaps in mid air and keep your glider on in case you miss. EDIT: IT's very tricky, but it's one of the challenges of climbing the tower. It has to be hard otherwise you would find it too easy and not worth the boring climb.

never had an issue with it that couldn't be solved by using my eyes to see the differences between past and present and wearing a glider to ensure falls weren't... deadly. 200 viewers couldn't figure it out? some of them were trolling you.

A change for this IS coming, btw. They were toying with it on the VS discord and Tyron seemed to be somewhat proud of his work, too.

holy cow... whoever submitted that mod request really did their homework. That's quite the challenge. I would dare say it's worthy of being it's own expansion for the game.

ITT CastIronFabric wants to play Minecraft but with better mechanics.

YES 100% Zero hesitation. As @LadyWYT said, everyone learns differently. Having to decipher what I'm reading on the wiki and relate it to what I'm seeing on the page can be a real head scratcher at times!

Well actually you can. I just had my test dummy blackguard friend test it for me and she said she could do it... it just took a while.

Yes. That is the intended solution if you do not have a torch!

you can also light the thing in the dungeon with a fire starter and IIRC the chest next to the thing contains enough sticks and dried grass for you to make one.

Anyway to answer OPs question. Fire Clay is hard to find because it now only spawns near bauxite. That's literally it.

I gotchu there bro. i had pizza for dinner last night right after reminiscing about the last fire clay deposit I found deep into bear territory on my server I play on.

I'm not really a lady. O_O

Why does it even matter if a person's username doesn't match their forum name? nobody cares who you are hiding behind your name.

And that's supposed to make it okay? And yes that is stalking. And yes you will stop it.

Content Creators are just the new gaming journalists imo. Their opinion is crafted to meet a very specific need: follower engagement. They will do or say anything to keep the views going. They can be trusted about as far as you can throw them, which... isn't very far with some of them. And to anyone reading this who is a content creator, yes this is my candid opinion of you at least until I know enough about you to change my mind. There are very few who I trust enough to actually consider their opinions about games as valid. Why? Because they actually care about the games that they play enough to learn how to play them and get good on stream, instead of just playing easy games to seem like they're a good gamer to drive up follower numbers and view counts. My storm strategy is to sit in the outhouse and let the monsters get distracted with me while my friends beat them up unopposed. Then when the storm is over I exit and start looting.

whoopsie!

Came here to say this but also add: fighting damages your weapons and armor. Some of it can be repaired, but it's not easy and is a significant resource sink. If you spend the game fighting each other because "MuH pVp!1!!", then you're going to find out really quickly that your time is better spent just playing the game.

I would like scenarios... For example you spawn on an island with a few plants nearby (turnips, flax, mayyyybe some other crops). On one side of the island is a beach with lots of trees. The other side is covered in mountains with a few spots of ore that you can mine and turn into tools, weapons, and armor of your choice. You cannot swim. You are surrounded by deep ocean. Survive and beat the story chapters. This would of course require the player to manage their resources to build a boat, leave the island, venture out and find the story locations and advance all the way to Steel tools and weapons.

Had you started with RP, economy, and wars/pvp, then the other players might have come (and stayed) for that. You're getting pushback because they didn't join a RP/wars/pvp server. They joined your server. Instead, just as a casual observer on the outside, it feels like a classic bait and switch maneuver.
