HAHAHAHHA WHOAH HOW CREATIVE!! This looks like lots of fun to play around with. Does God have access to every command? Is his answer to every disrespect just to strike lightning to the defiant?

Yes, the settings are adjustable as you mentioned with your examples of Standard and Wilderness. But Standard is not "for a bunch of friends getting together to chill." lol Standard is the Base Standard for the game. If you need it easier adjust it down. For example, the Standard difficulty of VS is much higher than the Standard of The Other Block Game. ^ This is a screenshot grabbed directly from the wiki of what the Standard preset is. I won't touch on Wilderness because you explained it well. All this is to say that an idea shouldn't be turned away because it'll make the game more difficult. and allow me to ask my questions again @Thorfinn: Which ideas would you consider worthy suggestions? Suggestions that you wouldn't reply "Get mods" or "Just make a mod", "suggest it as a mod"?

Agreed! This is the reason that the argument "It'll make the game harder" should be shied away from. The game is difficult for any new player no matter when in time they start playing. Like you mentioned: New players joining today (1.20) may feel that it's just as difficult as you did when you first started, even though the game might actually be easier now. This sort of answer is just dismissive though. This neglects to entertain the idea of potential improvements to the game in light of keeping it the same or "not making it harder". Of course anyone can just make a mod about their idea. There is no reason to suggest that. Which ideas would you consider worthy suggestions? Suggestions that you wouldn't reply "Get mods" or "Just make a mod", "suggest it as a mod"? Well put!~ When do you think enough is enough when it comes to difficulty in the base game? Since it is adjustable.

If this is the case then I can see only two options for the individual who doesn't want to blindly dig: Express their limit on the topic or choose not to engage, whether that's done silently or stated openly. It's okay to have a position and back track later on. At least for me, my qualm was when an idea was presented and critiqued, the critique was met with rebuttal and the rebuttal was not met with the same decorum. So, while not necessarily aligning with OP's statement of "Deep Discussions are not as favored as shallow discussion" (Because there were many long replies from participants), I think there is a lack of wanting to consider new ideas, as it pertains to adding features to the game. In my opinion entertaining such ideas should be encouraged! or if not agreeable for yourself, tweak it, edit it, and help the idea evolve. Engage in debate of why should it vs why shouldn't it and collaborate. I digress. please carry on

So I run my own private server (It's just me for now) I don't even know where this Configuration would be located o: So while you're correct, I didn't make the change I wonder what it's actually set to... Oh boy

I've got default settings on the world (Except the one that gives you the colored map? I forget the name) I have never even knapped a Flint Hoe Head guess I better start learning how to farm!

Hahahaha Thanks!! Feels pretty good. I still haven't prepped anything for winter (I hear it's brutal) but how bad could it really be?

Well best of luck to you my fellow Vintarian! I may take a page out of your book and restart a world with the new update as well

Thanks for sharing your builds @majestik! What's this about a new world? Can you not play this one in 1.21? Or is it a world generation change in the newest update upon release?

Hey again! I responded to your other thread in the Modding Board.

Hey DarkWalf. Not sure if you found a solution to your issue but the structure was wrong. It seems they've updated the wiki since Modding:Mod Packaging - Vintage Story Wiki "modinfo.json" has to be at the root directory of your mod.

Good afternoon Vintarians, I am on a quest of learning C# and have a number of Modding Ideas I have in mind to begin developing after a bit more of foundational studying of the C# language. I have one mod in mind that needs to access the "playerLives" setting that is present during World Creation. i can't seem to locate it in any of Vintage Story's code on GitHub and am at a loss for how to call this info for my manipulation. The reason I'm trying to call it is because of the following: - To change the value of playerLives, - To Display the current value of playerLives to the Player in a HUD whether through text or some sort of art or icons, - To be able to be called and modified individually for each player on a multiplayer server. Set with a default and then being able to be modified in-game with a Modded item; Any help is much appreciated I think you kindly in advance. EDIT: I tried asking in the Discord server but was receiving no help, (I'm not entitled to receiving help, so I don't mind of course) so I thought I'd try my luck on the forums

I don't understand what you're asking, I'm sorry LOL I'm going to let someone else chime in here.

Which corners are you referring to exactly? If you're referring to the blocks for the wall, perhaps you could chisel a few columns off to make it look a little more rounded or just not as straight.

I would suggest your friend creating the ticket! Simply because it's his account that's having the issue. if the staff need any info there is no problem with Sharing his info with anyone other than your friend. Also Welcome to the Forum! I don't think i've ever seen anyone use the term 'Vintager' hahaha gave me a chuckle because it sounds like 'Integer'. I hope you enjoy your stay and your friend's issue gets resolved!

Oh well if you're disparaging(expressing the opinion that something is of little worth; derogatory) someone's opinion then you'll get what's comin' to you lol I thought you were coming from a place of honest critique and open discussion lololol

TLOZ is my favorite gaming franchise of all time!! I am also in favor of implementing this sort of visual support for our left-handed brothers and sisters!

Agreed! I don't believe he's done anything nasty at all. There's nothing wrong with being challenged. Sure, it might be annoying for some people, but that's on them if they find long-winded replies annoying to be honest. I wish I had an idea of my own to post so Rudometkin could point stuff out in it, and we can have a thorough discussion about it. I do actually read what he writes haha It's coherent and the same way I read everyone's replies it's only fair to hear the counter. It just so happens Rudometkin likes to touch on every point mentioned. It's thorough and leaves no box unchecked. That's unfair to you I'm sorry you had an experience like that. You're allowed to hate/dislike whichever features you like and should be able to talk about it without people being insulted.

This is unfortunate to hear. I can see people reporting you, but once the situations have been reviewed, I'm sure Anego will see you were not harassing and inciting arguments. As for Spam, you replied and created posts just as frequently as any other frequent member of the forum. I can't see this ban passing and despite not knowing you very well, I vouch for your character and good intentions.

HAHAH Ain't that the truth! The mind and mouth just keep on goin Nothin' wrong with having lots to say. Ahhh whaaat?? I suppose you're right. I dabbled in Python before and is much more digestible than C#. But VS uses C# I must learn! I share this sentiment!

Perhaps I may not be understanding just how long everything takes as is. I should spend more time in the game and then come back and see if these same points line up with my experience and ask myself "Can I really afford to manage another mechanic?" right now my answer is yeah. If it's implemented well and it's balanced, I don't see why it'd be a bad idea. It'd just be another thing to learn in a game where I'm already learning so much. I couldn't possibly go out and find even the ones that have downloaded the mod you're talking about. I'm sure doing a search in the forums would get a sense of who wishes more from farming, but this is besides the point anyways. Popularity really doesn't matter imo

I dont think that's quite right. I can't imagine certain base game features being incredibly popular. They're in because the devs wanted it in. I can't tell whether you're against the suggested idea because it came from Rudometkin and your going to go against everything he says no matter what or you genuinely don't like the idea and will refuse to elaborate how to fix, improve and entertain said suggestion. Saying how it couldnt work instead of everybody being creative and imagine how it could work. Unless im severely misunderstanding how the suggestion Board is supposed to work.

Oh no that sounds like an absolute nightmare Thanks for educating me on that type of soil! In that case we come up with a new name for the soil that was described in the OP, just to avoid confusion with actual diatomaceous earth. That's hardly a counter traugdor reads more like a straight objection. And as far as I understand the system Rudometkin is suggesting doesn't seem to be RNG but instead a result of poor farming? But this isn't my idea, so I don't know the ins and outs and intricacies to answer your question haha EDIT: Also I was suggesting for you to counter your question: "How do you propose starting players, who may not have access to cures, should handle this?"

This!!^^^ Counter his idea! Wonderful! I like to see this honest criticism. I'm eager to see his response and proposed fix for this. Perhaps also offer a suggestion to counter your own question? My answer on the other hand: Seems to be an early game accessible mechanic for new players! and cures aren't the only thing that can help your crops. Proper watering and good soil (which is already in the game) play a part in the health of the crop! Maybe we can suggest another early game method for starting players to combat the disease?

Ahhhh! Thanks for sharing I have yet to even make glass for my house (baarely upgraded my hut to Granite Cobblestone). Kudos! and Welcome to the forum! ^-^
