Hi and welcome to the forums! Okay so I see a couple of things in your screenshot. First it appears that the temporal storm has just ended judging by the fact that your gear isn't 100% full. Second, it appears you have gotten the bowtorn variant of the temporal storm. Temporal storms have 4 variants that I know of: Drifters (original version) Mostly bowtorns Mostly shivers a decent mixture of all 3 They should just despawn on their own or find a hole to wander into after a bit before despawning. If not, then I would consider submitting a bug report that the mobs spawned by temporal storms sometimes don't disappear after the storm is over.

Oh I see you found the grizzly from my first single player world that I tangled with a few times. I built a tower of dirt and threw spears at him until he ran away... never did find him again after that. I see now he went to your world and has learned his lesson!

Have you tried just waiting out the temporal storms and... idk... panning gravel or sand from the safety of your hole in the ground?

as the question suggests, are Clockmaker pets supposed to disappear? I tamed a corrupt locust, told it to wait, logged out of my server and when I came back the next day, it was gone. No one else but a trusted friend is allowed on the server so I know no one deleted it without me being around.

you should be able to run the /wgen regen command to regenerate the broken areas.

Well it's just the one and she's a good friend of mine.

The Sailboat building mechanic is new. The Sailboat is officially a WIP. 1.20 was a story update. I'm sure 1.20.x will have more polish to add.

The servers are having an issue right now for some reason. https://status.vintagestory.at/

It's a Cloudflare issue right now. Try again later.

Having a MP issue, myself. I think it's actually the auth servers for Vintage Story as the error message suggests... which is a shame because I was exploring the first story location and only disconnected to see if a visual glitch would resolve itself.

Yes, but the warning is more for the week or so of time you'll miss out on... which can be pretty important as you'll see when you play the game. Time is very valuable in Vintage Story.

/serverconfig whitelistmode off /player [playername] whitelist off These are the only two commands I know of... Personally I just keep the whitelist on and manually add the players I want to be able to play (after OPing myself from the console itself, of course)

Disable your mods and try again. Only use mods that are updated for 1.20.

Mine looks like that after turning on the full-color world map. It's possible that you just need to leave and rejoin. It should load the map when you visit the area.

The translate app on my phone says it's Russian for "Congratulations, You're Dead!" with two buttons for "Respawn" and "Rage Quit"

were ? blocks in ruins fixed yet?

I also wondered if it was also DDOS protection, but that was a huge reach so I suggested this first. At least they're working with you!

Alas, I am based in America, and I host my server on my home network... so I wouldn't have any idea which providers would be good in the EU scene.

First let me welcome you to the forums @Oulana! I hope you enjoy your stay here! Secondly, I believe there is a command you can run. From the wiki on this topic, you can run /wgen pregen [radius] to pregenerate chunks around the player. Take care as this can cause a massive lag spike if your server hardware is weak enough that you need to pregenerate the chunks to make the game playable. This process will also take some time, which is a valuable commodity in VS as I'm sure you'll see, so I wouldn't go this route unless you're having issues with the server lagging as people go exploring.

Looks like your host is partially correct that they personally don't have any issues. But their ISP is certainly having issues. I would forward them this information as well as this screenshot: While the ping to your server is fairly steady (it will always fluctuate depending on what the server is doing at that moment), it appears that your host's ISP is causing the pings (and therefore the communication data that VS requires to keep you on your server) to get lost in the magic black box known as the internet. It looks like your host uses aurologic.net as their ISP. I'm unsure what rules Germany has about internet connections stability, so I'm not sure what leverage you have here to getting this fixed, but I would label this "unacceptable" if it happened over here in America. Hope you see some resolution and happy gaming!

I would run a "tracert 123.456.789.000" command (replace numbers with the ip or url of your server) the instant you get kicked. Or download PingPlotter and just let it run while you're on the server. If there's any issue, you'll find it.

I haven't ever found the world generation to be spectacularly problematic. But I will say that this may be more of a personal preference than anything. This is my current world spawn. By contrast, this is where I have chosen to settle with my friend. I'm quite fond of it and I'll be sad if I have to delete it for some odd reason.

I'm curious what items you are referring to.

I will also point out that wolves tend to spawn closer to forests. (wiki: https://wiki.vintagestory.at/index.php?title=Wolf ) I wish I could find the bit I read now, but that seems to be indicated by the forest floor block vs a large amount of trees, so you could theoretically plant and harvest a good amount of trees away from a forest and not have to worry as much about wolf attacks/spawns. So it may be worth moving away from any forested areas for now until you get your bearings and figure out how to play the game. My very first time playing the game with my friend, we had a temporal rift spawn IN THE HOUSE during a temporal storm. It was a light storm so we opted to fight the drifters instead of riding it out in safety. Queue the panic that set in when the rift spawned right on top of my head and began spewing out monsters inside our little dirt hut... We had to scramble to hide inside the cellar which didn't even have a proper door at the time. Anyway I prefer to dig my house out under the surface. This seems to lessen the chances of a rift spawning inside. Just last night we had a rift spawn inside the charcoal kiln (just a 2x3x3 area enclosed by cobblestone blocks) so that was fun to deal with. This game just LOVES tossing unpredictable things at you left and right. It's insane, but I love it. I hope you come to embrace the chaos, too!

Also what would happen to windmills?
