Hehe, it could be considered a minor easter egg Back then when we were working on the demo, we've created the swarm of flies. Actually they were even in the demo world (a bit behind the starter cabin). We have some future plans to spawn them naturally in the world (either spawn them randomly, or at some points of interest [e.g. buried chests], or near dead bodies etc), but until then, we decided to spawn them at 0 0 (considering this is always in the middle of the ocean, so likely they shouldn't interfere with any buildings etc)

somewhat related question, is there a reason why the player doesn't spawn at 0,0, red? it seems logical to me that the center of the world would be the main spawn and i've always wondered about that. i think in ark the reason was that 0,0 sometimes got a little... weird?

DAMN that must have taken a while! such detail!

you can use console command 'togglewater' to disable water temporarily so you can see through it for building better.

oh that's weird. i thought from the title maybe it was just a weirdly pollen-dense spot or ash particles from future volcanic region, but nope that's straight up bugs.

Quote from Forscherdrang

Wirklich eine fantastische Arbeit

Habe es mir aber auch nicht nehmen lassen, sie weiter zu züchten.

Waren mir ein wenig zu blass um die Nase.

oh wow! my plan had been to add a whole extra layer of blocks so i could get specific patterns, but just painting some of the main body looks better than i thought it would!

*facepalm*

Actually, that *IS* exactly what I was asking for. Also I'm stupid for assuming without testing.

ah, i thought you meant you were sleeping in like, a building sort of tent around a bed, not an actual tent item XD i wouldn't say you're stupid for assuming tents and beds worked the same, since they do in most games.

well, it's not exactly what you're asking for, but from my understanding, the compass only points towards proper beds, not tents. so you could use tents out in the wilderness to sleep without messing up your compass.

oh cute! thank for sharing!

the night image link doesn't work tho... maybe it would be better to upload images directly here?

i play a mix of both so i actually don't want blueprints to be expensive XD but i do get what you mean. i don't mind blueprinting to copy paste, but i certainly would like to be able to snap and mirror those blueprints.

although, there WAS a recent change to how the blueprint works that makes it vanish when you use it- even in creative. i did most of my building before that change and it's not one i'm fond of. i also think that it would be very nice if making a blueprint automatically added it to your inventory, instead of requiring that you go to a bench to get it... perhaps things like that would make it more useful for you as well?

Quote from Cahira

Wow! Very well done!

thankyou!

you can somewhat modify the terrain with rakes and sledgehammers tho, they sort of smooth it out.

only in creative mode at the moment.

Okay I think I realize what I have done wrong. I was not in the newest version. So now I'm going to go into the beta? I believe that's where I'll find all the settings that you have listed. Thank you again this is a massive help.

oh yes my apologies, i should have asked which version you were referring to. you are most welcome!

the basic stone tool is the slowest, if you craft a better one like a steel pick or a drill, it goes MUCH faster. there is however also a gameplay setting in misc that enables 'instant digging' (under 'singleplayer' in misc settings) which you can use if you don't want to just work your way up manually.

also this doesn't address this concern specifically, but if you're looking for guides might i recommend my own? https://steamcommunity.com/sha…iledetails/?id=3141655353

hey it's not spam if it's legitimate, full thoughts and concerns and you're not just repeating the same ones over and over!

personally tho, i actually do use blueprints for exactly what you described (i make a blueprint of a fence post and some railings, then just copy and paste it to make the rest of the pen or whatever it is), the only problem is that blueprints don't snap, but i haven't had issues with that yet since i can get everything close enough.

you can indeed rotate while in manual positioning mode in the new version, you just have to HOLD DOWN right control while you do so. i overlooked it and complained about it over on steam, and red pointed it out to me.

i think all of that's planned, actually!

stone versions of the doggos, without the painted details. (these are still painted, but it's uniform instead of highlighting the eyes and claws and such. i wanted to avoid paint altogether but wanted to match the terrain stone more)

Yaromid i take back what i initially responded to you with. i just tried your suggestion out, and it worked a lot better than i had expected. (i'd swear i remember struggling with painting textured wood or something before, but then again that was over a year ago lol)

still rather have a naturally closer match, in part for convenience but also in part due to how painting the stone obviously reduces the natural hue variation in it, making it look less organic.

this'll work for now tho so

i'm fairly certain inland water features like these as well as the distinction between fresh and salt water are already planned
