My experience has been the same as OPs. Unless I am hunting them, if I see a moose I go the other way.

It should affect anyone who joins the server after the fact.

So I start a new world with default settings, and immediately (Immediately, like before I can do anything) am killed by a wolf. I'm done. Go home 1.20, you're drunk. Call me back when you're serious.

Well no spyglass, but if you want just the zoom function, https://mods.vintagestory.at/zoombutton

So have the new mobs been toned down from PR to RC or are they still overbearingly obnoxious?

You have died of dysentary...

I wish. Even better would be something like chunkbase.com has for Minecraft. I know some people love the discovery, but I don't have days to invest into a world, only to find out I hate it. It really makes me sour on the game.

Some server settings don't take effect on an already existing character. I believe this is one of them. You can run individual player commands on those characters, or nuke them out of existence and let them create a new one. The wiki is pretty helpful on this.

I hate them as well, and even worse, my wife hates them from halfway across the house but if I make the volume any lower, I can't hear the sounds that matter (like when a wolf is eating my face). I don't have as much experience as Thorfinn does, at least I have something to look forward to I guess.

Oh, thanks, I forgot that! And get off my lawn!!!

The only reason I brought up the terrain gen is because you can't get large oceans to travel, which going by boat is still going to be faster than overland. Partly because no obstructions, partly because no distractions. There is an auto-walk mod that works for sailing as well by the way. Won't ease the time but does ease the finger. Probably one of Dana's, I'll find exactly which if you can't find it. Trust me, I get the frustration with the time, unlike the other 2 gluttons for punishment in this discussion. Not all of us want to invest hours in mind-numbingly boring tasks. I could go play Elite Dangerous if I wanted to spend endless boring hours traveling.

Fixed that for you!

99 little bugs in the code...99 little bugs...take 1 down, patch it around...100 little bugs in the code... Oh...not those bugs, right!

No, you just might need to restart your game.

You know I admit I can't recognize all the components, but I was mostly looking at the BP and it seems like a lot of metal to me. No gears, I tend to run out of room for after a while too. 8 plates, 8 nails, 3 bars? That is 21 ingots, regardless of what it is, it's quite a bit of metal. I imagine you're going to need another for a return trip, if not more for a portal network. As you yourself have noticed in another thread; it is already getting to be a drag how many hours it takes to get around, and we're only up to 2 out of what 8 planned major story sites?
