To add to this, recipe cycling in general needs a way to both pause and manually cycle each item in the recipe. It's really frustrating right now trying to view and evaluate the available options.

When viewing an entry for a piece of armor or especially clothing, it would be really nice if it indicated which equipment slot it uses - probably by displaying the appropriate icon in the handbook entry.

Whenever I try to make a clothing or armor set, it's a kind of tedious process looking up the recipes, and I am not always sure which other items complete a set. It would be very handy to have the other items in a set linked to each other when viewing any of them in the handbook. For example, when viewing the Fur Coat entry, it should link to Knee-High Fur Boots and Fur Gloves.

Traders seem much rarer in 1.22. I've only seen a few, and none so far have had lime or salt, whereas in 1.21 there were traders everywhere. I did finally find some borax, though, so that's good. Took a long time.

Could do the Valheim way and have different crafting stations for different types of items, at least as a somewhat "quick" fix before they figure out how to turn all the crafting into systems like we have for pottery and metalworking.

I can verify that a lot of crops are struggling in the last growth stages in 1.22 rc2. A lot of them seem to get stuck at 33% growth for a good month or two, and the especially unlucky ones can get down to 0% N and 11% growth. This is on medium fertility soil, first planting and/or second planting using a different crop type (N/K/P). Needless to say, I'll be lucky to get a second harvest this year - I'm near the end of October and a lot of them are at 7/9 stages...

I've noticed that if you sneak, after a few seconds the fish will de-aggro and start swimming around peacefully again. It's probably not really useful for spear fishing, but it does help with the fishing rod as they don't seem to bite when panicked.

Seems the account manager site is not responding. Perhaps too much traffic? Been refreshing every 5 minutes or so for about 45 minutes now with no luck. EDIT: Site is working now, yay!

For stone axes and hammers and the like, definitely. I think a flint knife would usually be secured with some sinew or some rough cordage, though, if it was given a handle at all - I bet a lot of the early knifes were just handheld sharp stones or even bones. Speaking of, some bone tools would be neat. Stuff like bone scrapers and sewing needles for early leatherworking.

I understand that. But RNG gonna RNG, and in my current world, despite flying around over a 3000 x 3000 area and checking mountains and caves for a couple hours, I did not find any. In cases like this, having another option would be very nice.

Another approach would be to increase the chance of limestone and chalk around oceans, if that's not already the case, and make worlds with less % land and more % water the default rather the current 95+% land.

As a linguistic aside, did you know that some languages have only one word for preserved fruits? While in English we make distinctions between jam, jelly, marmalade, fruit preserves, and probably other things I'm forgetting. So perhaps you are technically correct in a very specific context, but I think the broader point of making some sort of mashed fruit with a sugary substance to preserve it is also quite fine, specific nomenclature aside.

I would also like to be able to harvest grass and reeds by hand, even if it's slightly slower than with a knife. Especially if we then needed a little bit to tie the knife blade onto the stick, and there was a knot-tying mini-game involved rather than the crafting grid...

I enjoy grunting for worms. I wish we could also use the small fry we catch directly as bait for larger fish. I do kind of wish that fishing itself required a little more effort to reel the fish in, rather than a single click and you're done, but I'm also okay with where it's at. It'd be nice to see more actual fish populating the waters, too - I've only ever seen 2 at once even in a fairly large pond / small lake (maybe around 50-60 blocks across).

Yeah, RNG gonna RNG. I'm actually in a sandstone area, but from what i can tell the layer below it is mostly peridotite, and like I mentioned, I flew around in creative for a bit and the top layers don't really chang much at all for 1500+ blocks in any direction. I'm not about to dig down through 10-20+ blocks of sandstone to see if there happens to be chalk limestone underneath - I'd have to either get very lucky or spend tons of time methodically drilling for it. No thanks. At this point, I just cheated and gave myself some lime so I can make a couple barrels of leather.
