I had to get my ore detector also which burned about 30 min+ because I had to go searching for it in my outposts. Had to travel far to only find that it's still normal, yet it allowed me to find various batches of ore veins I missed out on, even hiding.

Yesterday was awesome. Last night was awesome. I take back what I said about being bummed out about the update with me having a nice rush after accidentally exploding myself bugs bunny style, as well as hearing a nice secondary boom after death.

That, and flare guns needs to be a thing. I guess that's saved up for player models & customization update.

Lastly, is it an issue if I keep harping at GEMA? It's fun dragging their name out for the damages they're causing, yet zfoxfire is concerned about the pushback when they find out about my own pushback. Too much worrying that fun needs to be had somewhere with dragging GEMA's name through the dirt for the damages they've done to the nightclubs & such. Even this game, from what I heard. Taxing everything & such.

- Niska Village [0.7.4] - Episode 7 - Explosives & Medical Clinic:

I've gotten blown up this episode while experimenting with dynamite. Was quite a blast, even a double echo upon death. Nice!

Finally managed to get around to doing another necessary episodes in Niska Village. This time I'm trying to juggle talking about the new 0.7.4 explosive update while also trying to build up my medical building some more. Even pondering when & how to complete my Niska HQ building. Finally managed to get a wall up on the medical building allowing for windows to be placed on camera, as well as some furnishings. I even had to go down as deep as -332 for sulfur beforehand to test things out with while wanting to make an 'explosives' building also. Even before all this I also had to do a run around the 'ocean' in the hunt for my ore detector at another outpost of mine wishing I had a horse to travel with.........

Having plans to getting back to wanting to build a bridges over canal, to make a logging 'cabin', as well as an explosive building, among others. Even to go back to building more forts, among other things.

I actually wish we had flare guns to shoot upwards to slowly float back down. Now you can have these flares for Plugin API airships to rescue stranded people using it as an 'SOS' signal, among other things. That, and also wishing for someone to finally release an elevator plugin. It was said to be in the works, yet needed it the most today when digging further below to get at the sulfur.

Thanks for hanging with me from episode 1 till now. Hoping to keep this strong! I had the most fun warming up to this explosive update

Second confirmation, nice. Yeah, I logged back in with Saloon doors trapping me in my room. (open lan & singleplayer. Not one, or the other, but both). Red51 noted that they'll be fixed in time. I'm hoping soon because I'm getting trapped more often.

Also, may I suggest to trigger the dungeon music to play more often? I'm being spooked out by the water droplets, unless that's intentional. Also, I hate how easily spooked I am. I always need someone, or some AI partner to follow me. I'm easily spooked, even knowing there's nothing there. I blame all the jump-scare games, as well as Minecraft for giving me this fear when I got creepered, Skeletoned, Zombied, and Witched jumpscared up my chair.

I love the underground track. Similar thoughts to Zork, yet loving how spooky "chill" it is. Skyrim style.

It is, yes. sulfur is needed for both TNT & flares. I'm however having trouble locating a good batch of it, or I may have to go to new chunks. That would require me to walk for a good long while. Wish I knew where cobalt is hiding.

Yeah, the flares only burn for 5 minutes (as description says), and I'm also loving the Skyrim & space sounding cave music. It sounds like what you'd hear in a cave in SKyrim and such that I'm loving it. I haven't tried flares, yet wanting to do it 'legit' so what I may be saying is false & unfounded.

I'm now trying to hunt for sulfur, yet had to do a stupid trip for my ore detector at my furthest outpost. Bah.

I'm finding so much cotton on my old chunks that it's making me both happy & frustrated at the same time because I spent a long while going to a new chunk grabbing it when it's all at my older chunk.

For the curious:

Dynamite is under utilities in the crafting bench.
Flares is under lights in crafting bench.

Saloon door also locked me out again in 'open lan' mode while waiting on buddies to join. Now let's see where I find sulfur, if I do find sulfur.

------------

I'm loving the cave reverb when you walk & mine. It echoes nicely. Also nice that flares have a 5 minute timer to do things.

I guess I'll be the only one bummed out that this is mainly explosives. Was expecting more furniture, or something to fiddle with. I guess I'll instead switch that mood to building a structure to handle explosive building by storing sulfur & explosives in separate rooms to mainly focus on flares & such.

It's a nice update loving the mention of new cave music, echos, chunk loading speed up, among others. Yet curious about the cobalt. New music, and such.

Now can't wait for both dungeons & Npc followers to have fun messing about without fearing the emptiness of the caves & such.

I love where Miiware is going (in detail) with that earthquakes would have to be connected to something else in the game. Not up to chance, but something with a warning sign you could make note of in various forms, including technology warnings. The moon phases would be one thing where a full moon could spawn a chance of a quake. That, or some nearby volcano causing predictable eruptions, among others. With the map going to be changed from its current playtesting to a single-ocean map a continent could be shaken a few spaces in any direction, but only if there's some active lava tube or volcano in the area.

It also seems I forgot to mention 7 Days to Die with how building destruction could work by turning blocks into rubble, if it's weak. Some wooden blocks could fall, some blocks could be damaged, and such. If you're in a wooden hut or a dirt hut then it's most likely, more so after a rainy day.

But yeah, I guess this is in poor taste with what happened to Italy lately that they need some time to recover.

Also, I'm surprised people actually want natural disasters here when on the Minecraft community people kept whining & moaning to the fullest how they don't want it because their progress would be destroyed. Everything they worked for would have been for naught, and that it just harms, doesn't add anything to the gameplay. I would support floods because there's tides of waves coming in and out, as well as thunderstormse and such. You would have to make sure your farmed crops are within a structure, and such. Anything in the water would degrade (except for trees).

Bread in a furnace is something I can see Red51 doing naturally without us suggesting it, yet to solidify that thought I +1 it. I can't wait to see bread, pies, pizza, cakes, and such being bakes in some sort of furnace. That however has to all wait for the cooking update, whenever that is.

Natural disasters is something I support. Be nice to have flooding, earthquakes (minus the whole ripping, but just shakes) to mess with building. if there's any weak builds then they would collapse, 7 Days to Die style, while stronger stone types be left intact. Thunderstorms, Tornadoes.......

We would really have to plan ahead and everything. I actually love it, yet there'll obviously people being against it because of losing their progress. Same with not wanting hostiles, zombies, and etc. A split community wanting 'realism', yet in a specific manner.

I agree on the auto-level & charcoal bit.

If not that, then something more 'standard' to the German needs.

GEMA is stirring up a hell of a lot of trouble, even when simply conversing with Red51 that this seems appropriate to have this, but with anti-GEMA sentiments for trying to stir up WW3 desires indirectly through their greediness & creepy practices.

If only I could do such myself. *defeated shrug*. Turn something silly into good fun. This joke can wait as the modding community matures, yet it's just a fun thought. I guess terrain adaptability is priority, as with maybe the SimpleBoats plugin, or whatever is planned.

Angry farmers who track your stealing bit while also making note of if you replant before attacking you, chasing you, and etc. Even placing a silent bounty on you to have bounty hunters & such come after you.

That, then there's the raccoon though of them going into chests & such. Maybe guard dogs, and etc. Make sure to bring a sleeping blow dark, or something along those lines to not kill NPCs, just stun them for a long while if you're a passive type player. Hostile bounty hunters? Just keep knocking them out in your style

And bring on the pain if the German citizens want to fight a war with GEMA. Seeing those protest images was relieving seeing that the German people indeed do care about their subculture & such. Nice. GEMA shall ironically be the one to cause WW3 with the mentality they have, even harming Rising World in the progress.

Graveytard with ghosts was something I mentioned long ago with a few member (A Canadian from the west coast). I do hope some form of that shall see life in this game. Graveyard would be more sensible, I guess.

I love the mention of scarecrow, fall coloure trees, pumpkin patches with scarecrows, among others. I have my Halloween rush ironically from Japanese Anime because Halloween seems dead to me in North AMerican (Canada). I get my Halloween rush from the commercially festive Japanese in their Japanese games that I love seeing Red51 doing something awesome for Halloween. Probably late for that with dungeons being enough for that.

Fenced farmland! Yes! Fenced farmland in various regions, styles, and such. Amused by the idea of helping or hindering an NPC farmer, something they should make note of. If you steal they should be more likely to attack you, even alerting other NPCs in hunting you down in a bounty. Should be a memory thing in the long term, Skyrim style (if possible).

I'm now curious what the update shall contain. Maybe some ventings towards GEMA? Delays caused by GEMA?

An ATV with a small trailer behind it would be awesome. Seeing as how much we tend to haul resources it would be awesome with some people even hauling wood, food, or whatever. Even fishing, and such. Fishing might be a big thing that you'll have to haul it further inland & such.

Minecarts & train cars with the ability to hold large crates would be awesome. Would be nice if Red51 could look into giving us forklifts to pick up & drop various crates onto trains & trucks, among others.

Sorry, but no zombies & fantasy related content. Community voted no

--------------

Odd jokes & jabs aside, I approve of this. I'm in favour of lava tubes, water pockets & tubes, crystal/quartz cavern pockets, and this Dwarf settlement. I however strongly recommend that we steer away from anything 'traditional' while trying to give it a unique touch. No fantasy medieval, yet keeping it as 'realistic' as possible. Give them their own world with actual writing, Skyrim style.

I'll once again bring up that 'GATE' anime for how fun that was, and how it can be cleverly tied into a Twilight Forest type mod from Minecraft for Rising World. If you want, we could work towards a goal of trading with these underground dwellers with when trading with them could also bring them upward (a trigger for your interaction for their curiousity) to allow them to simply be seen. Any immersive interactions with the terrain would also be amusing, such as fishing, cutting trees & replanting, among others. Maybe some odd airship related happening, or something.

Damn.....I support this idea so much, yet can also see this working into a a very rare spawning that you'd probably find them favouring a specific biome to be underground, and that biome would also influence the type of buildings underground.

If you get Dwarves then I'd be amused with crafty (GATE) Dark Elves, as with rare sorts of 'fantasy' civilizations.

That would be awesome, yet I wouldn't know how to do that. Having a dice roll on it would be sweet while adding to the fun of it all. Would be sweet to see how that works so I wouldn't have to keep pestering him, yet that's a bit too late now. Who's going to release it first?

I guess if Red51 was to add in vehicles that they'd be pretty small. Something to consider would be this Merc' truck which could be 'generalized' for our light mining, logging, & such type resource runs:

https://twitter.com/4ever__dead/status/790762950445281280

That's awesome. I guess the biggest vehicle might be a box truck, ones you see for moving. Having played Euro Truck Sim 2 & American Truck Sim has me curious about those long haul trucks though. If they'd be possible.

Well, thanks to this new API it's awesome that we can mess about with objects happily. Messing about with 'Simplecars' has me seeing the potential of both Rising World & the plugin world that we can have both boats & airships/planes roaming about the world, if in a very glitchy manner.

If you're in command of a boat or plane then it would be straight forward, yet you'd have to set the boat at water level & airship/plane at a higher level where it won't hit objects. Not sure how reliable that would be when I'm finding the cars in 'SimpleCars' to be highly shaky, even hurting your health at times when you hover over the terrain. You spazz out too much when the vehicle is moving.

The potential is there to have airships & planes, and I'm amused by it. Just find a nice airship model, script it properly, then have it wander off into the distance with the player in control. Maybe not with other players (as mentioned by Red51 through movement complexities & such), but with a scripted function of a storage capacity borrowing from a big crate, or something.

It be awesome if cars could react to the terrain, as well as any 'flying' vehicles to ascend & descend so Movecraft could be made obsolete in Minecraft.

You know what's both awesome & frustrating at the same time? While testing out SimpleCars v1.3 plugin that cotton spawns in already spawned chunks, yet I was either too blind to see it, or it somehow spawned secretly in a newer update when I wasn't looking. I spent a good 30 minutes traveling FAR to newer chunks when this update appeared, yet it appeared right at the doorsteps of Niska Village when I was following the beach coast & such. Now I'm half-relieved that newer update content can appear in older chunks, yet it trolls the living hell out of you.

<Insert facedesk emote here>

I'm just loving how cotton now spawns on pre-spawned chunks, and that I can soon have a vehicle to drive around with after 'Simplecars' gets polished more. I'm still hyped for horses though. Dungeons then player models to allow for horses. Horses & man-made gravel......Oh, that's going to be sweet!

I can't stop hyping this game up. It's hitting all the awesome sweet spots

I'm loving this. Now if only it could react to the terrain this would be an epic plugin while being a serious placeholder until vehicles come in. Red51 could delay vehicles with this plugin being around until more important updates are released.

zfoxfire mentioned we should have wagons to move about in the world for the Medieval type of technology. I agree. Also, that refueling idea is awesome, and I love it. Need to figure out how that works 100%, yet that's awesome.

Yesterday I tried to make a video, yet it seems I may have to do a follow up eventually when the plugin matures a bit. This plugin "had" (or maybe still does have) tons of very buggy & glitchy happenings.
