16 clot for short-sleeved shirt and 12 cloth for long-sleeved shirt? weird
I reported that the other day but i guess it hasn't been fixed yet. The labels for the shirts are backwards but the item crafted is what you see in the preview window. So basically select long-sleeve to craft short-sleeve and vice versa. @red51 Could you look into this when you have a chance?
Apparently eggs can be a substitute for brains. I really look forward to collecting eggs from chickens.
Red should still add brains in just for creepy halloween dungeon stuff. heh... maybe a Dr. Frankenstein lab could be a rare dungeon room find. 
Actually making clothing is a very labor-intensive task that is very time consuming. We should have to wear pelts, then tanned leather (requiring more than just scraping), cloth comes much later. A red plaid shirt needs dyes as well!
I'm sure dyes will come and will be a determining factor in whether or not we can craft fancy clothes. We could probably use all those cherries to make dye. Not sure how dye crafting works in real life but it definitely should be a thing in-game. I do like how time consuming clothing crafting is now. It's a step in the right direction and certainly made hemp and cotton farming very important overnight. I now have more cotton planted than food. It's gonna get better once clothing wears our from fighting or perhaps just normal use (same as how food needs to spoil). More survival stuff is coming. Fires will someday be required to survive the cold of night.
I just thought of something that might address the primitive clothing issue. Eventually we are going to have scattered items on the ground (stick and stones and maybe even bones). Perhaps we can the current stone axe an the proposed stone sword like above, and a bone shiv (like in 7D2D). With those items, we can begin hunting. Here's the critical change: move the tanning rack off the workbench and make it one of the things we can craft on our person. Then we can make leather and cut the leather into strips to use as primitive bandages! At present it makes no sense to go through all the steps of crafting a workbench and a loom and a spinning wheel just to make bandages.
Now regarding the tanning process, yes. The process is far more compllicated than it currently is. I'm gonna do a bit of research on this but at first glance I'm seeing there's a pretty common technique of mixing the brain of the animal with hot water (there's supposedly just enough brain of any animal to tan its own hide) to make some kind of amino-acid rich liquid that makes removing the fur very easy.. Gross. But hey, in real life, all body parts are used.
I like a lot of your ideas. I haven't been able to make steal tools or the drill in my game so I can't comment on that.
Steel tools are currently crafted on the tier 2 workbench. I realize a lot of this is brand new so recipes are subjec to change so I'm gonna wait further to see what @red51 does.
I would like all ores and the coal to only be found underground, not on the mountain sides. I have more fun in the game when I can't find a map, tools, or a weapon in a chest. (When I do find any of those items, I feel like I cheated and start a new game.) I like finding records, ores, and pelts in the chests. I don't like finding caves under your mine, it feels like cheating to get lower without having to dig.
You can disable caves in the world generator on creating a new world. But yes, I agree that the ores need to be distributed better. Minecraft seems to have everything but coal hidden from mountain tops. Most of it should be underground in cave walls with harder to find stuff by purely digging. Here's an idea... things like coal, iron, and sulfur and potasium nitrate (both I hope will be implemented someday so we can craft gunpowder) can be found in cave walls. Other ore nodes are located between cave systems so you have to spend some time digging for it.
I'm not sure I agree with it feeling like cheating when you mine into a cave systems while digging. We still don't have tools that wear out. When that comes, I'm sure it wont be so bad afterall. I like the idea that the new stone axe is so slow to mine. That's gonna force us to use more iron if we want to get serious about mining. I don't like how in Minecraft the stone pickaxes is not that slow and weak to be a nuisance to use. In minecraft I use stone mostly and only keep an iron pickaxe for mining special blocks.
The wild boars, bears, and tigers are close by, making it a
challenge to get food and cut down trees, (ETA, without a weapon).
We just got our first stone tool. Some other stone tools and weapons should be implemented. When more dangers get added to the game, this is probably going to become more of a necessity. For now, avoidance of agressive wildlife works pretty well (especially when we don't yet run out of stamina.. still pending implementation). Personally I like the stone sword from Conan Exiles:
Pretty sure those tags are set by users. We actually had a zombie tag at one point.
Well, ya know... Red51 is a bit of a trend setter

I'm not sure if this is new behavior or not but I just noticed I can no longer edit a sign which i presume someone else crafted. I'm in a shared world (open to lan) and I tried editing a sign. I can easily move content about any chest but the sign attached to the chest I cannot edit. This is cool, but is it possible to improve group behavior or what exactly is the long-term goal of groups? Also, are the groups we can join amongst ourselves the same or different from the groups in the permission system?
I actually kinda like the ownership approach that ARK takes. If I join a group then anything I own or make belongs to the group. If I leave, i lose access to anything owned collectively except what is in my inventory
Thread reels no longer crash the game. Woot!
Just a small observation here:
1. the short and long-sleeve shirts need to be switched on the loom. One says short and shows a long sleeve.
Most of these forum pages are indexed by google. You can probably find something easier using Google than the own search engine built in. :\
There are still bugs woodplanks
For a bug, that looks really cool!
0.9 is technically not released so its a beta branch in Steam. On your game list, right-click on Rising World and go to properties. Under the Betas tab, you can switch the branch from "None" to "0.9-update - preview".
You may need to restart Steam to force it to download the new version. Keep in mind, this new version is still a bit buggy. You may not want to open your existing worlds in this. If it converts, you wont be able to re-open if you switch back to the old version. Might wanna make a backup of your worlds before messing with this.
Some of the clothing items are a bit buggy for example: xmashat, bomberjacket1, tux_coat, vr, sombrero, and I few others I don't remember.
Red disabled them temporarily so they can be worked further. So basically the clothing command will not find these. but everything else seems to spawn just fine.
I noticed that pumpkin and watermelon seeds disappear from the ground and inventory as soon as you plant them. They show up back in your inventory some time later.
Moon,
Are you opening a world that was converted to 0.9? That might not be possible to play. But for everything else, might wanna do an integrity check on the game install via Steam.
Now with the new 0.9 beta update out, I think its time to re-visit this topic since the changes in this update show we're heading in the right direction. I just would like to see a few changes. I ran some of this by Red but I want to also put this here incase anyone has some ideas to add on.
First, I love the primitive furnace. It's small and smelts just enough to get started and has a significant fuel inefficiency to add incentive to upgrade it asap! Also. we are now starting out with a stone axe. This is good. I also presume that ground scatter (sticks, stones, and bones) is still coming so we should eventually start barehanded and craft our first stone axe. Also, still no tool wear but I'd imagine that will now be coming soon. However, there's some significant gaps still in the progression. Here's my thoughts:
Well that's my thoughts on progression. Hopefully when steel crafting is made, the steel tools can be moved back to the workbench from the tier 2. Personally I see the tier 2 as more of a fabricator. You don't need a fabricator to make a steel pickaxe, just a steel making process. However, the new mining hammer fits perfectly into something you can craft on a fabricator.
I also want to say that the iron pickaxe, then steel pickaxe, then mining hammer seem to be set correct as far as mining efficiency goes. And the difference is a huge incentive to upgrade. I think the stone tools need to be adjusted a bit
Some more observations
* I noticed that smelted sulfur is rendered larger than other ingots so they stick out past the front of the smelting tray.* preview rendering of objects like the old clock show the object facing down so when it rotates, you only see the back side.* unable to add water from a bucket into the paper press. regardless of whether cloth or rags are placed, the message does not show up when you attempt to add water to cloth about first turning them into rags. Instead, water bucket places a water block at the base of the press and is difficult to pick it up without finding the right angle or picking up the press and then removing the water block*records and lumber still do not show in inventory slot. "missing image" instead
* unable to place records on or crank the gramophone* on the primitive furnace, I have to go through the motion of "opening the side door" before i can load it with fuel. however, no door is visible
Not sure if this was mentioned in the change log but.... we can now hold right-click and drag to quickly place ores into the smelter and then hold F to quickly remove them!!!!! OMG!! Greatest feature ever! Not to downplay the importance of character models and steel pickaxes but that's really been needed for a while
I can't get the rake to lower the ground. All it does is rise the ground, and like you found, it rises it by at LOT.
I think its traditionally been right click to raise and left click to lower the ground.
Next issues.
* rake rases and lowers ground a large amount.. I raked up twice on a patch of grass and got a mound as tall as i am. Also, rake does not destroy grass in the process and turn into dirt.
* new sledgehammer does not recover blocks. it shows block cracking then it breaks
* on ore detector text label is offset from white box where text should be* preview of all rod and plates are missing from anvil (not showing the carton box (what replaced all updated item previews), just not showing anything)* block previews also missing ( restarted my game and now the blockbench is completely missing from where i placed it)
* while holding a repeating rifle, selecting "hide the body" on npc causes the weapon to fire again.* wearing tux_jacket crashes and corrupts the save
BIG ONE!
Workbench bug. I created two worlds. in one world i managed to get a bug where i click on the workbench while in gm 1 and its fine but if i go to gm 0 and enter the workbench, the mouse does not release from the player so i still look around. Now what's odd is i start a new world and do not get this error anymore. However... if i load the ok world and then go to the bad world, the error does not reproduce. I have to restart the game and go first into the bad world to reproduce the error. @red51I'll send you my world saves if you want them. I created both new under 0.9
The preview pane is actually broken for quite a few objects (i guess everything that's changed essentially). unchanged items like the workbench show up fine but all resources and tools, the preview is broken.
Also, a moot point but.... "statue2" should probably be called something better since statue 1 is "Stone Statue".. maybe statue2 could be "Early Settler" ;-p
Is the wooden torch holder missing on purpose?
