What is U.M.A. ?

Unity Multipurpose Avatar aka U.M.A.

Very simply put it's for character creation / customization.

more technical explanation

It allows for an optimizes multiple layers of clothing instead of the current one layer that we have right now. Think of it like being able to put on a shirt, coat, and scarf at the same time whereas right now our characters basically take off their shirt to put on a coat. There's a lot more than can be done with it, that's just one example. It's also been around for years and well supported so there's tons of different character models, etc. available for it along with countless accessories like clothing, etc.

Not sure if this has been discussed before, but we really need the ability to resize the different storage like chests, barrels, sacks in survival mode without having to switch to gm to do it.

Just suggesting a version of the open barrel that is tied to the trashcan mechanics so we have a more rustic / old world option in survival mode.

Cloaks and capes would be cool, so you can get extra warmth in winter! and you could upload a image on ur cloak

I'm still personally hoping eventually Red51 switches to using U.M.A. and it's framework for the characters. It makes multiple clothes layers much easier to do while still keeping the performance for lower-end systems. Not to mention it would very greatly expand character customization.

Probably it's a good idea to always hide the crosshair if the line is cast... I will change this with the next hotfix

Tried it after the hotfix, much better and luckily no fish were hurt in the attempt....caught two sticks. lol

Quote from red51

It's definitely good to have more options for baits. Although corn is very easy to obtain (much easier than earthworms or guts), so probably it would be better to have a recipe which requires more ingredients to craft a corn-based bait I will think about that...

Or another option (especially once food spoilage comes into play) could be stale bread for freshwater fishing. That would require a lot more steps and give a reason to use stale bread.

Tried the fishing just to get an idea of what it's like for building a fishing hut for a village build.

My suggestions:

1) An option for the cursor to auto-hide when the fishing rod is equipped / line is cast.

2) The ability to use corn as bait (works well irl and doesn't require killing anything for those that eventually want to catch and release fish when we can eventually tame / stock ponds, etc.)

Save an animal, eat a human.....would solve so many problems. lol

(had to get a joke in there, although a vegetarian making suggestions for fishing in a game is a joke in itself)

Quote from red51

There have actually been a few discussions about this... I think we can finally get it into the game with the next regular update... CursedXistence is eagerly waiting for it too

I'm just a little unsure about the standard size of the torus. It would typically be one block across, but not very tall, so it would be more like 0.1 to 0.2 blocks high or thick. Does that roughly match your idea?

What, little old me....nah not at all... only been waiting for it since the beginning of time... lol

Jokes aside, there's only a few block shapes overall that are still missing after the last group you added and torus and torus segments have seriously been one of the most requested ones. Being able to make more realistic looking ropes / bindings will definitely be a big game changer for us builders.

Quote from WickedSchnitzel

Would be nice if the sickle would have 2 modes. Left mouse would cut grass and it won't grow back, right mouse button would cut grass but it will grow back over time. Or any other solution to only temporarely remove grass. Plus an option for admins to set grass growback time.

It's been tossed around a few times in discussions. Personally I like the idea of the grass growing over time. I think it could be cool to come back to areas after a long time and seeing nature retake an area. Even having it where you cut the grass and it gives enough to manually replant it plus a little extra (like what happens with tree saplings) would be nice.

Maybe just something as simple as left and right mouse button raise and lower the terrain like normal and middle mouse button simply rakes dirt without changing the terrain level.

Quote from WickedSchnitzel

I know that. But it never raises it so that it touches the object, the terrain always stays lower so that there's a gap and the object is floating.

It's floating in your screenshot because the terrain under the back half of the smelter isn't level

when using the rake use the right mouse button to raise the terrain level.

The sickle will cut grass which you can then use in your hot bar to replant it in areas. It won't automatically grow back in places where you cut it so make sure the place you're actually going to cut is an area you don't want it it.

Quote from Ozorvals

Of course, they are dry storm in the real world, even in summer in my own region in southern Europe. But its not what its pointed here. I have clearly mentioned a clear sky. Dry storm occurs only with a cover one (without rain). Here, it's just an unrealistic occurence of lightning and thunder in a perfect sunny blue sky

It's called Bolt from the blue, it's a real thing.

Quote from Ozorvals

I have noticed lightning in a clear sky in an arid biome. I'm assuming this is stormy weather in temperate biomes. That can be fixed in a hotfix or than need more work to implement local weather ?

The Unity version is the default version now, you don't need to select a beta branch to access it anymore.

Even though the pizza discussion tends to be a bit off-topic, but pizza is actually planned Same for pineapples (they will be part of a tropical region in the future)^^

Sorry, saltwater and its eventual possibilities got me excited.

Quote from Methamorphoosys

* Ahuehuete Tree. A very strong and broad tree. Super long-lived. At least 1500 years.

That's another reason why I love lists, etc. like this. In 44 years of life I have never heard of that tree before.

Quote from james1bow

or BBQ suace!

granted I make a vegetarian version of this now instead of using real chicken, but I used to make a pizza with blue cheese for the sauce, grilled bbq chicken, green and red bell peppers, onions, and either jalapeno or banana peppers. Wasn't even on the menu at the pizzeria I worked at but someone saw me make it once for myself for my lunch and had so many people asking for it they added it to the menu.

BBQ sauce on pizza is definitely underrated.

Quote from red51

Thanks for your feedback!

We definitely had plans back then to add ways to extract salt from seawater Since we have finally saltwater, it definitely makes sense to take a closer look at that now... although probably we'll either add food spoilage or more food items first (so there will be a reason for the player to farm salt)^^

WAHOO!!! eventual salt means one step closer to PIZZA!!!! lol

We'd have use for all the veggies..

no no wait no good....we don't have pineapple in the game yet...

<RUNS AND HIDES>

lol
