They get stuck inside the blocks. Oftentimes they flicker in their attempt to pick up their feet and walk farther. I have managed to destroy the blocks so they can walk another step, but they just get stuck in the next one.

I've done a few adjustments to nail this error down. My guess is that they can't get up the half-block step I had, but I can't confirm that yet. I've replaced the half-step with a stair-shaped block, and no one has gotten stuck on the plaza top yet, but I can't confirm anyone has wandered by to try. I tried to herd them towards the plaza by shooting the gun to get them to run, but I guess I'm not much of a cowboy as I can't get them to run in the direction I want.

Another hint seeps that these cows walked through a full block set into the ground, but these *don't* get stuck. It was only they when they were on top of my plaza.

I've built a little test plaza in a place they like to congregate and will watch and see what I can figure out. More soon.

By the People, For the People! Here's a standard American City Hall. Unfurnished because I use blueprints of others for that, but this creative project was for the rotunda and the facade decor anyway. Customize to your liking, but naturally, please don't repost.

Have fun. (And remember to vote! )

Animals keep getting stuck in my plaza stone. This is the third herd to get stuck in this same spot. Before it was cows, then sheep, now goats (so I know it's not the animal type.) I picked away the blocks to set them free, but they walk a step and get stuck again. The area is 2 blocks high of stone with a half block step around it. They always get stuck near the step. I've now replaced that area with a different type of material, this time marble, to see if I get the same result.

Any advice?

I've learned a lot since I built "Rancho Sonora" in the first barebones unity-land, so I rebuilt it from the ground up. The rooms are bigger, there are more fireplaces, and I've expanded the second floor. It's sparsely furnished because I haven't quite reached the level of fancy furniture building yet. (All of you have fabulous ideas and beautiful creations in furniture. Thank you for the inspiration.) Feel free to make it your own, but please don't repost it. Thanks.

Enjoy.

Can't find ore? Keep exploring/keep digging.

I'm calling the biome the Fe Forest where iron boulders are just laying around on the surface. There's plenty to get you started in just one of them, but I've explored and found several Fe Forests in the area. I've also mined a mountain under one of these forests. It took a while, but I found some iron, tungsten, and coal. (With ore level=default.) Not much, admittedly, but that makes the discovery all the more rewarding. I think my favorite part of this update so far is the fact that ores and food are *just scarce enough* to make every find a valuable treat.

I just finished downloading the update and living my first survival night in the wild... and I heard an owl. It took me a bit to realize it was in the game: wrong time of day, wrong hoot pattern than my locals-- the hoot came out of the game?! You already have owls in the game!

I will gladly shut up about any desert biome accuracy. I'm confident you've got your development priorities in order. Just having owls is enough for me. As promised, I helped by buying three more game keys in recent days and gave them away. I am awed, humbled, and amazed by this update. I give you a great big THANK YOU as I listen with delight to the owls you already included.

Cheers.

Incredible!

I would truly love this feature. Rising World is not just a game, but a tool. As a novelist, I've been using Rising World for years to create settings. It's easier to imagine the scene accurately if I can "see" and "walk around" in it. Rising World has been extremely helpful in this. I've got a traveling/adventure novel series based on a real landscape that I cannot easily visit, and google satellite maps can only do so much. I wrote over a whole book's worth of material before I got the chance to visit the place again. I found I was so wrong about how far you can see from one mountaintop to another and I had to trash half of my material and start again. I tried to recreate the map in Rising World, but even in creative mode, it took up way too much time trying to re-create a whole countryside.

Even as a game, I'd love the challenge to build Machu Picchu, or Lombard Street, or the Potala Palace. And exploring would be amazing! ... I've never been to Europe and I doubt I'll ever get the chance to go irl. Even without the cities, people, and architecture, (which are the best parts) it would still be fun to stand on the Rock of Gibraltar, climb Vesuvius, build Rome, and go on a pre-history survival adventure along the length of the Danube like in Clan of the Cave Bear.

I know this is a lofty dream to have this feature added, but I am putting in my vote of how awesome and helpful it would be for when the developers decide if/when to work on it.

Cheers.

Loyal to my promise to assist where I could, I bought two copies of Rising World for my only two friends on steam. And I just figured out how to get both my kids to call their mother. Triple bonus!

These days, a copy of the game is cheaper than buying a burger meal. I can certainly live without another burger.

Let's help Red in the way that we can. Buy Rising World as a gift for someone and post your story here.

Pay it forward.

I can't decide if I want to build an old west town, Mos Eisley, a San Franciscan-style main street, or, or, or.... but when the new version comes out, it sounds like I'll be able to build one of each anyway.

That's super helpful! Thank you!

I love your chair!

Thanks. I had to experiment with your instructions (they weren't working at first) to discover my keymaps are/were messed up. I have to change many because I'm left-handed. I had something double-assigned, but even after fixing that, it's not quite there. And even if it were, it's hard to align things exactly / can't see the corners with the glowing edges of the blueprint.

Is it possible my settings (move precision, etc) were wonky when I *took* the blueprint that causes the offset when copying? e.g. Does "placement" if the whole construction being blueprinted copy into the blueprint, as opposed to just the construction elements being copied?

I wonder why the modular snapping is so far off on this one blueprint and not the others? I've blue-printed it twice from different directions to try to change the handle, but it came out the same.

Thoughts anyone?

Thanks. I tried that, but the Move Precision doesn't change no matter the setting. It always moves 1.0.

I'm wondering if I have my keymaps messed up. I have to change many because I'm left-handed, so maybe I've got something double-assigned? Experimenting....

Seeking help from the skilled rising world building experts out there. My blueprint placement is off and I can't figure out the setting that's causing it.

I've embellished the corner of a 1x1x1 sandstone block with many smaller bricks. I'm trying to place the blueprint of it at various 90 degree angles to embellish a window.

Bluepring Placement settings: Move Precision = 1; Scale Precision = 1; Rotation Precision 90; Rotation Mode = Default; Collisions = On.

Just starting, the placement is already off by .5

I try to use modular snapping, but the snap handles are over a block away.

Even if I manually move it around to place it, the sandstone block is still off by a smidge.

I'm guessing the blueprint is using the smaller bricks as the handle/guidelines for placement, but I can't figure out how to change the point of reference.

Any ideas?

Thanks

I discovered a bug. New Version.

Hover mouse cursor over inventory slot, then using Shift + Number (keyboard, not numpad) to switch items from inventory to hud, the item's inventory copies the shape of the item in hud or vice versa (instead of trading places.) After some messing around to see if I could figure out exactly what's creating it, it seems intermittent, but can confirm the following:

Note: I am left-handed. Mouse always with left hand, so rekey move/action commands to the num pad. In this case, I'm in fly mode, gm 0, with caps lock, scroll lock, and num lock off. Not trying to move or use the numpad for any of this.

Verified gm 0, fly mode off, num lock on/off doesn't matter, caps lock off, scroll lock off.

It's happened to many different materials and shapes, (materials: copper, sandstone, ceramic roof) (shapes: sphere, inverse arc, slope, pillar.) It copies the shape, but the material is the same as the original, so, if they were not the same shape *or* material as before, one will copy the other shape and still swap places from HUD slot to inventory slot. If the same material, but different shapes, it copies the shape and groups both into the HUD slot.

Tried with many different inventory slots vs HUD slots and I can't figure out why some work and some don't. It's about half and half.

See screen shots below. Happy to share my command key settings if you want, just tell me where the file is so I don't have to screen shot that too.

Good luck,

Kess
