Broccoli Clock

Nope, vanilla. It may be the way I bought it, I dragged the potash to the buy slots, but was also right clicking it to increase to the amount I want. The gears were in my inventory, when I pressed sell all the gears were gone and the slot it opened up had a stack of potash. Perhaps it's the odd combination of drag and right click to drop the items into the sell bar affected the amount it sold, or perhaps the amount it sold it for. If I am in the position of having some gears (heh, I just spent all of mine on potash!) I'll try and recreate and replicate/record it. I'll be honest, as the trader had taken the gears (I think it was 28) and I ended up without the potash I just went into creative to give it back to me. I really don't like doing that, but I felt it was fair considering the gears were taken.

I'm lucky the tools were all fairly low level, copper or bronze, but still you'd think that if the tool rack burnt the tools would drop on the ground, and what's worse is it takes just a second or two for it to be burnt. Blink and you'll miss it. I am sure you can conjure up the image of someone screaming into the screen, "where the f~ is that pickaxe! I know I made one, it can't just f~ vanish!"

For reference, I am on.. Ryzen 5 5500 / MSI RTX 3050 (8Gb VRAM) / 32Gb DDR4 @ 3200Mhz / Win 10 (running on SSD) https://i.imgur.com/k9xJb2j.png I am generally running 80-100 fps @1080, sometimes it'll drop down to 60 when in dense forest but it bounces back fairly quickly. I find things like YT absolutely saps my GPU. I do have hardware acceleration enabled in the browser settings, and I'm using FF (always have!) which can have a heavier memory footprint, but I can have 20 odd tabs open with "basic" html stuff and the game is fine. Have one of those tabs open at YT and the difference is notable. I am my own worst enemy though, as I'm someone who will happily have like 3 separate browser instances each of them with multiple tabs open.

Here's my tale of woe regarding fire. I had a pit kiln embedded into cobblestone, 2 blocks up and 1 across I had a wooden tool rack. I didn't think about it when I placed it, although I know pit kiln fire does spread. I couldn't figure out why my tools kept going missing, and what was happening was it would burn the rack but... that also destroys the tools at the same time!. I'd come back find an empty wall, think "Oh, I was going to put a tool rack there", place it, move tools over to it and a day later the process repeated itself. It was only when I came to put up the tool rack the 3rd time, cursing my ADHD for thinking about doing it before and not doing it (although, obvs, I had..), and looking for tools to fill it that I couldn't find them. I took me a good 10 minutes of running around the base, searching every storage container, every nook and cranny, that I had my epiphany. Moral of the story, even if you think it's far enough away, always move it further away.

It showed up in the trade bar at the bottom, when I clicked sale all the gears were gone and I had the exact number of gears for the amount of potash they had a supply off, with the red cross appearing immediately after buying it. If I had to guess, and it is just a guess, the items were bought then "lost" because whatever code handles the transaction doesn't check if you have inventory space. That's no shade being thrown, I'm a coder myself and this sort of stuff is all too easy to overlook. Hence the thread, see if others have experienced similar, if so I'll try to replicate it and create a new bug report.

Had a quick look at the bug tracker, thought I'd start this thread to double check if what I experienced is what others do. If so, I'll start a new bug report. In short, if you buy from the trader and don't have the inventory space the items you bought "disappear". I bought, 144 potash (2x64, 1x16) using up all my gears. I didn't realise this but I only had one space free in my inventory. The trader took all my gears, but I only have 1x64 stack of potash and the remaining 80 vanished into the ether. It's not on the ground, and the traders has cancelled out the potash because they'd sold me all they had. * sad trombone * Is this recoverable? Have I lost both gears and the majority of the potash?

I can understand why you would assume that, and you've answered the question correctly regarding whether it snows or not. This is my fault for not being more descriptive, It was not just snow but snow and being frozen, and I apologise for not being more accurate. Yes, that's what I am referring to. I guess we just need to accept "this is a computer game". I'm a coder, I understand the limitations, I still have ice blocks in the middle of the water in Summer, and warm wet areas that still have berries on the bushes in the middle of December. I'm new to the game, and I imagine this has been raised as an issue before.

Thanks for the reply. Forgive me but just to clarify, whether an area gets frozen is based on precipitation? If so, I at least have some rational for this happening, although it's a fairly unsatisfying one, as precipitation wouldn't affect whether the ground would freeze, or at least it's not the main reason. Still, it's a computer game, and I do thank you for the answer even if it's not the one I hoped for.

Going to be honest, the options are just far too nebulous to give a proper answer to this, and as it's a single choice answer only I'm not going to.

I love the seasonal effects in this game, snow can be really nice the way it interacts. I love the idea of the nights drawing in with the snow gently falling, each voxel illuminated by a light source. However in a 100 blocks or so away, there is a large fairly flat open area that. While it shows the colour change to mark seasonal differences, there is no snow. It's not even snowing, yet I go back to my base and has layers of snow building up. What is the reason for this? Is it something game engine related? For some reason certain 'chunks' don't render in the snow? -- although other areas of the game are snow covered, so presumably not. Is it lore/environmental? There is a hot water spring nearby, or there are deep caves containing whatever Eldritch-eque horror within them and they give off some latent heat, or at the most advanced is it governed by the mountains - is the weather system that complex? -- the area that is unfrozen doesn't seem to match any specific PoI either underground or over. This game does a great job of immersion, and part of that is its realistic mechanics. Yet I feel some of that immersion is lost when I find myself in a brown tinted field devoid of snow when I'm having to shovel the stuff, not far from here, just to get out of my door. Deep Winter is fairly short, so it's not a huge deal but I'd love to have an explanation that would fit into the immersion/lore. Thanks in advance.

Anger inducing, it has to be said, and to add insult to injury you can't explicitly turn them off. If all I had to rely on was visual cues (such as a blood vignette, character shaking or just looking at the relevant health/hunger bars) then I would be happy to turn them off. Turning them off (Entity Sound Level - I presume) reduces all sounds it seems. I get it, the devs have a vision, and that is to be commended, but something as teeth-grating as these sounds should not be forced onto players. If I was going to mention this to a friend, I would specifically warn them about the voices which seems a shame as there is far more to praise in the title than there is to complain about.
