Wow!! I just saw the doors on trello and just had to let you know how awesome this looks. Also it's nice to see the current health indicators still in place. I hope they don't change too much in the final version. The lighting from the metal fireplace in the tunnel look great as well and I love the shadows cast. The effect of that material layering you implemented really shows in the door animations. It's nice to see a little grass overgrown here and there along the edges of the path, very natural looking.

If you plan on doing flowing water, can you add rivers and streams to the world generator?
I think this was originally planned as part of the world generator overhaul. Now that the game is being re-build for the new engine, I imagine all this stuff will get tossed in early on with the new world generator as it already has lots of features not in the old one such as higher voxel density. I'd love to know how far biomes are in the re-design. I've seen some screenshots of prairies, snowy cabins, and forests. No lakes yet.

This is definately the Minecraft killer we've all been waiting for. I'm happy to see this refactoring of Rising World finally coming to realization. Following the trello board and seeing the changes happen is very exciting.

Did my survey. My only concern is using JSON for config files. JSON5 seems like a new standard and more ideal for personal-use config files wheras regular JSON is used for large-scale messaging between nodes.

I take a peek on the trello board every now and then and see some interesting things pop up. Glad to the beginning of cave generation. And the snow covering the terrain based on material "height" is just incredible!
Hope you are safe with all this covid19 scare going on.

and another bug of sorts. The heat protection suit actually makes my body warmer. Maybe the insulation value needs to be negative? Hell just got a lot hotter.

Loose sticks and stones on the ground has been mentioned before. With all the focus on survival elements lately, I hope to see that soon... And tools that wear out.
I'm mining like crazy and have more iron and gold than I know what to do with. Trying to get to Hell so I can craft some hellstone blocks. I hope they glow

People quitting after they die is very common with rage quitters. Please fix this bug for all the rage quitters out there!!
Death after Rage-quit. The final insult to injury.

While the NPC logic has greatly improved it does not seem to account for player mining underneath it thus removing any path to travel, including straight down.

Hmm... that's strange oO Did it happen in singleplayer or multiplayer? Maybe the fuel indicator is just wrong? Is the fuel level still the same when reloading the world / reconnecting to the server? Basically the fuel consumption should always be update, no matter where you are. But the consumption always fluctuates a little.
I'll have to run some experiments to give you a scientifically sound answer but my general observation was that the consumption varied greatly... in some cases it took about 40 units to smelt a load of 24 ores. But good to know this is the new norm. -
I think the furnace might be bugged. It doesn't seem to be consuming fuel at a consistent rate. It seems like if I walk away from the furnace for a while to go mining, I come back and hardly any fuel has been consumed. I'm running a small furnace and put in 2 coal at a time for 80 fuel and I believe it's been 70 of fuel to smelt one load so figure I wont waste too much per load without having to monitor it closely.

I see many people using LMB for body options and it activate the tool in selected hotbar, but if you use the action key instead, it works greatit's an old habit.. when using a mouse you left-click in the menu on a pc.

A minor hotfix was just released which fixes the blueprint and poster issues. There is no need to update servers. Sorry for the inconvenience!
Hmm... unfortunately I wasn't able to reproduce this issue
Where does the "stone breaking sound" come from exactly? From the dead body? Did it happen in singleplayer or multiplayer?
I mis-reported it. It's not sound specific. When clicking "hide the body" the LMB actions whatever item is active in the hotbar. My crossbow was active so it fired. Its still something that should eventually be fixed -
A small observation. Whenever I "hide the body" I hear the sound of stone breaking. I guess this freaked me out since now I have a reason to watch my back. I've observed it so far on a white horse and a white goat. I haven't yet tried hunting other animals yet.

Yes, this is normal. But maybe we will change this behaviour^^
I've already seen a few requests floating around for a "hard mode"Maybe it would be worth categorizing these sorts of settings as hard or normal.
I personally wouldn't mind at all having to deal with these guys in the daytime. -

A few more notes being skeletons need to be slowed down by a hell of a lot. They run too fast at times when trying to get to the player.
no... its good as is. this creates real incentive to build better weapons. i went down with a bow and arrow and was quickly overpowered. a crossbow and a repeater are better suited or just a sword with a little skill

Maybe a new trailer, showing the NPCs?
A new set of newer 2018 trailers is already out showing the new player characters. However, yes. Some combat scenes with the NPCs should be added too
