Simply amazing!

The developers should consider adding something like this to the base game, I only play vanilla, but I want this!

TOPS is now on 1.22 rc 7 just a few weeks ago they rebuilt the server from scratch using 1.22 nothing you built on TOPS prior exists on this new server. I have been playing since re-launch, but wait times have ranged from 2-4 hours so it has been hard to get on. On their Discord server there is a TOPS channel, where I get most my info from. The old server was moved, and as far as I know you can still get to it with a different ip address. Don't know how long that will be up, they don't plan on keeping it up. You can probably join it and download your land claims if you don't want to loose any of your builds, that is what I did before the re-launch. Hope that helps Yes You can download your claims by connecting to the old server. See Discord TOPS channel for details. IIRC it was March 21st

You are one talented artist!

Agreed. Take care of yourself devs, I will wait however long it takes. VS is awesome and with every update it gets better!

Looks similar to an oil painting.

Love the progress so far!

Yes, when chiseling you press "F" to open a window that will allow you to drag, drop other blocks onto it, then you can chisel multiple block pieces withing the same block.

It's similar to The One Who Shall Not Be Named, Voldemort, lol

The Other Block Game AKA Minecraft

Grid crafting is so... TOBG. I love any step they make towards removing it. I love how immersive this game is. Any step moving closer in this direction is a win for me!

For me this time around is really bad, because I started playing on the TOPS server, and have been waiting 4+ months for it to reset to play again. They said it would be when the first 1.22 rc was out, but they still haven't reset TOPS. I assume this was because of some of the bugs with the first rc version. But now that those are resolved, I'm just waiting. I know it is close, but the days keep on passing by, it truly is hell for me right now...

When I was cooking a stack of flint, it was taking so long I thought it was a good idea to do some farm harvesting while I wait. Problem was, I must have went just far enough away for the chunk to unload, and the fire stopped, and everything cooled down. So I had to start all over

I was playing around with pre-4 last night an noticed something interesting. When returning home my crops had a bunch of rabbits, deer, etc eating them. I remember something in the notes saying a bug was fixed regarding this. But ever since I started playing a little over a year ago, I have never seen this behavior before. At first I was annoyed, then I realized I could use my crops as bait, dug some pits. Now I have plenty of food while I wait for my crops to grow!

I have been looking every day excited for the TOPS reset as well. Once they announced the reset I haven't played much at all, a little bit here and there in single player worlds. But I really am looking forward to play on TOPS and work on some long term builds. I was counting the days until the reset, until they held it off again for the next update, now I have no idea when it will reset, so I keep checking back on the news each day. Really itching to play again!

Knapping only works if you hit one rock with another. Make sure you have a rock/flint in your hand when working on it in the world.

I’d love for the starving sound to be different. I can’t tell you how many times I’m playing with someone and they suddenly panic, convinced they’re being attacked by something unseen. I rush over to help, only to discover there’s nothing there—just their sheepish, ‘…I forgot to eat again.’

I love the ash idea, it could pile up like snow, the bigger taller your house is that burned down the taller the ash piles are afterwards.

I went in knowing nothing, and yes I was a ragdoll as well. It wasn't until I started reading spoilers after the fact that I learned that. I also didn't know that when wearing full iron plate armor healing was 0% effective and thought it was a bug. lol

Beautiful building!

If you are looking to add some text to the map see the "Guide/Contribute": https://map.tops.vintagestory.at/?x=0&y=0&zoom=6#contribute It's as simple as adding a sign and adding text "<AM:BASE>" with the name you want to display. Keep in mind this won't show up immediately, they only update the TOPS map about once a month.

I think you should be able to harvest the glow worms and use them to create the glowing blocks that are only in creative mode. I would really love the ability to chisel glowing letters, signs, art, etc in survival mode.

When exploring, always, always bring stacks of ladders!

When I logged in to this update the first thing I noticed was how fuzzy everything looked. I ended up turning off bloom, which helped a lot, and turning up the texture quality. In case anyone else has this issue.
