There is a discord, if you're into discord - link is on the front page. Updates are announced there.

oh, you'll have another quartz use by the end of 1.14. But yes glassware for alchemy will probably be a thing someday.

Probably what happened was when you removed the linen sack, it still had items in it. Containers with items still in them can't be put in hotbar or inventory. So you need to make sure to clear it out totally before removing it.

It can take awhile to show up. Maybe several minutes, from what I've seen. 26 should definitely be enough to get you a readout, at least.

If you just want to get the items for yourself, it's way easier to use /gamemode to go into creative. Instead of an inventory you'll have a searchable 'nei-like' list of everything. Just search out what you want, get as many as you need. I think shift gives you a full stack iirc? Then go back into creative.

It can be as simple as taking a propick reading at the entrance to any cave you're considering entering. If you get some interesting results in decent or better quantity, check it out. If not, move on. But propick use is about required to get consistent results, that much is true.

5 block above and below. All directions = 11x11x11. The vertical part is the tricky part, being able to have a pit, light it, get out and plug all the holes in time. It's indeed much easier to do 11x11x5.

It's always been this way, I think most people just take it for granted by now. It's not intended afaik, just probably some numbers nobody has bothered to go back and change. Once you have a pick, it's pretty minor difference.

Finding a vertical shaft cave will let you see a good ways down without digging. No way besides that though. Ya you shouldn't have found tin in chert. There do exist very rare shallow cassitterite deposits, but I think they're still stone type limited afaik. Best place to find ore depth info and such is the wiki. There's an ore deposits page.

in a typical game where you spawn in the temperate latitudes, you may need to go 20,000 blocks south to reach climates that have kapok and acacia. If you customize your world bands to be on the small end, you'll have an easier time. If you use a patchy climate world, they'll be very easy to find. I'm not sure how patchy worlds work with seasons and stuff though...

I believe the game may just go off the general stone type, excluding all sedimentary. That or it was an oversight.

Don't know on that one. If so, probably very low priority.

It should be more or less immediate I think. Check your spam folder, it often gets put there. If it's not there either, use the support button at top right of webpage to make a support ticket.

Depends on the molten metal in question

It will not he a hyper-realistic thing in terms of materials properties of the item to be quenched. It will revolve mostly around the quenchant itself, of which we'll have several; generally tiered as water, oil, molten salt, and molten metal.

You have to have an empty container slot. That's where the populated skep goes. It won't go in any other part of your inventory or hotbar. To place it you'll need to hold I forget if it's crouch or sprint or what - one of those cntrl/alt/shft. In order to scroll over to the bag slots (you can also use 'the special key', plus number keys 1-4). Then you can place it. Oh, and go just give yourself a skep, go into creative mode /gamemode 2. Open your 'inventory', which will actually be a searchable list of all objects. Back to survival is /gamemode 1.

It's not *only* found in deserts. Salt domes can be found in any climate (but there must be a fairly thick sedimentary top layer). The specific halite deposits that are discs near the surface, that specific deposit type is only found in deserts, and the top layer must be sedimentary here as well, though it does not have to be near as deep as for salt domes. But you can theoretically find salt in any climate. Anecdotally I think you may have to travel a lot more than 13k south now. I think climate band width was bumped up recently to where it may be double that now, possibly.

Leatherworking is kind of a balancing act between realism and playability. Be happy that the leather curing does not take almost a year as it did irl before the advent of modern chromic tanning agents, and which *somebody* pushed for initially! Even as it is, it's a pretty time-consumptive process. That said, I believe there's plans for a scraping mechanic similar to how TFC did it originally. And there may also be an elaboration on the final step of getting the leather pieces. These two steps would be pretty interactive, and so more engaging than just more stages where the player just waits, which is already a lot of leather making.

There are already plans for these things. Tongs are a bit low priority as they're mostly a visual thing. Quenching and Tempering will be their own mechanics with other effects.

Do you have any mods you're using? If so I'd recommend trying it without mods and seeing if it works.

The game does not have automatic updating (yet). You'll have to go to the downloads page here on the webpage and download the update and run it. There's a full game download which is like 250mb, and an update which is like 45mb. Normally you'd just do the smaller one, because the only difference between the two is that the larger download includes all the music. however I think there may be new music in the next update, so at least once you'll need to do the full download. But after than just the smaller ones.

When a skep is populated, in order to pick it up whole you have to leave one of your 4 container slots empty and right click on it with an empty hand I think, and it'll go into that container slot. If you want to harvest it for honey, yes, you have to break it and it'll be destroyed. That's how skeps work. Eventually we'll have box hive technology that doesn't destroy the bees every time.

No. Worst case, some blocks might be question marks, though I think now there is a prompt for automatic remapping even, should it be necessary.

And you've got 10 liters of water in it?

You do have to restart the game to get the change to take effect.
