Hi!
I would like to role play a bit and I'm looking for people to join me. The idea is to attempt a bit of simulated progress with enforced slow advancement speed.
We would start with a Neolithic to Iron age village with different huts for different professions. Most tools would be forbidden at first but become available as the village grows and evolves.
I found a place I really like in an African biome, is quite far from the spawn though. Please, let me know if you're interested in joining.
Hi, here is my humble attempt at a smithy:
They have a URL in their server info. You might have some luck there: http://www.levelgamer.de/contact.php
Hi!
I noticed the following: when you try to plant a sapling in a non-claimed area, it tells you you can't do that but the sapling is removed from your inventory.
And thanks for the great plugin!
This really made an amazing addition to my world, thanks for sharing!
Hi!
Still learning but I thought I could share this attempt at a smithy.
Have fun!
Really nice, can I ask though, why are the roof textures slightly rotated?
You wouldn't have to. You would only need to make sure the materials are near enough. You would have the same inventory view as now, only it would show materials available in the range, not materials on you.
Hi,
I do realize how much of a radical concept this is and understand it's not much viable as a real suggestion. Here goes nevertheless.
I noticed many people consider immersion a vary important part of the experience. I always wondered how the ability to carry hundreds of items, tons of materials, doesn't completely break it.
So why not use a more or less realistic inventory? Of course, the game must remain playable. You can't cut a tree down, pick 2 logs up, run to your base, run back for another 2, rinse and repeat.
The answer would be transport chains. Let's use the cut tree scenario.
At your base, you place a Logs storage marker. You go out on exploration and find the perfect tree to fill up your warehouse. You cut it down create logs and mark the area as logs pickup. Ideally, some NPC would form the transportation job, and bring the logs to your warehouse. The speed depends on your progress. By hand in early stages, horse carts later and maybe trucks in the late game.
If NPC simulation turns out to be too complicated, I believe logs slowly disappearing at the pickup and appearing at the storage would do just fine.
Now each machine would have a range. If the resources required for production are to be found within the range, they are used automatically. Also, you can manually exclude certain resources from auto-usage. Seven Kingdoms: Ancient Adversaries anyone?
