Thanks for all the help. I have now got to iron, making bloom, ingots and smithing the tools is all fine. Waiting for my flax to grow to make the windmill sails. But I have noticed the smelting temperature for iron, and reading the guide, blistering steel, is above the 1300 of the highest fuel I've got so far. I've had a look through the guide but can't find any fuels that go that high. 1. So how do you get to those temperatures? And collecting the several types of "tree saps" (Mod: Culinary Artillery) 2. Does the metal quality of the spile improve the harvest rate? I've found the answer to #2, it is No.

I have come up with a few questions. 1. How do lightning strikes work? As in what materials provide shelter from them? What is their damage and aoe? Asking as both me and my friend have been damaged by them while inside buildings. 2. Is there a preferred area for Oak? and I guess Acacia as well. For leatherworking. As I've only been able to find single oak trees. I actually managed to get seeds from the most recent one so I'm set in this game, just would like to know for any future games. 3. I have noticed the wet status effect. What does it actual do?

This doesn't make sense mathematically. 1 Twine = 10% 4T (1 linen) = 50% so 12.5% per twine. 16 T (1 sewing kit) = 75% so 4.6% per twine. Why is a sewing kit so bad at repairing?

Thank you everyone for the replies. As far as the translocator, I have repaired one in my solo game, it took me 3500 tiles away into a cave at y=60, died before I stepped off the platform. Might go overland and carefully clear the caves. Also as far as the story goes, we've found some lore books, so I *think* I know what happened, but I still don't know why, and I did find a polished kimberlite monolith. Not sure what to make of it, but I'm sure I'll figure it out.

I have a solo game in year 1 October, and a multiplayer game with 5 friends at about the same spot, who are also new to Vintage. These are the questions we've got so far. 1. Is there a list of what equipment goes in which slots? As I've only just found out that the second chest slot is for a tunic. 2. If there is no one in a game that has the skill to make sewing kits is there another way to repair clothes? 3. Is there a way to breed/populate a pond/lake with fish? 4. When you use a chisel on a stone block it gains the description "Insulated face" does this actually help the temperature inside? 5. All our building have single block outer walls due to being easily put up and modified, would double walling them improve the inside temperature? 6. What is the best strategy for finding lime? We've explored 1000 in all directions from our home and haven't noticed any. The only lime we've got so far has been from ruins. 7. Is there a method to getting temporal gears? Thank you for any answers you can provide.
