Wondering what i can do to increase survive rate for bbys. Seems the ones that arent killing themselves are starving at such a high rate. Most of the time we could support more people in these villages and more people means faster development yet these bbys are still starving to death. Are nurseries really the key to keeping people from yeeting their babies down a drain pipe? Or is there some third option im not considering, thoughts?

So out of all my favorite things to do in this game building is my favorite. Mainly because if you do it right your projects can last indefinitely. Only problem is making even one building takes up so much time that im trying to find anyway possible to cut down on the time it takes and to do that i wanna adress some issue i got:

1. When digging big stones the shovel takes up space if you choose to bring it back, and if you leave it you have to waste time going back to pick it up, how do we fix this?

2. Are tire carts or horses better for hauling stone easier?

3. Where should you place the stone halves when you drop them off, on top of where you are building it, right next to it, or somewhere else?

4. In what order should you be building?  i.e walls, floors, doors, forges, ovens, boxes, etc.

5. Should you build as you get the resouces to make walls and floors, or should you wait until you have as much as you need, and then start building?

6.  right after you dig up a rock should you chisel it? or shovel all the rocks in the area and then go back around to chisel them? While were on the subject should you transport the rocks you just chisels or should you make a 2nd trip for them?

7. Whats the best way to build with twins (a.k.a a friend or helpful villager)

What are some combination recipes, or tips that arent very well known, yet useful for something?

Examples:

.You can take off the flint of a bow drill with a flint chip

.putting single logs on tiles next to eachother makes it easier to make boards

.backpacks can carry soil

.backpacks carry 4 not 3 items

etc.

*insert opener here* In general i wanna make this post to help new players learn the basic mechanics faster so if you are a vet or experienced this isnt the post for you. That being said lets get to finding out how to make some of the basic stuff in OHOL:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Surviving:

(Food): Starting out you wanna eat just berries of gooseberry bushes () The berries are purple with seven of them on each bush so when you dont see anymore of them on a bush go find another one to eat.

(Temperature): Temperature affects how often you need to eat, you can see how hot/cold you are by looking at it in the bottom right corner of your screen. Because food is valuable you wanna have as ideal a temperature as possible to save food. Look at where you are on the map and compare it to your temperature meter to find out where you should stand at the most.

(Dangers): Almost all biomes in the game have some sort of danger from mother nature. Wolves, boars, mosquitoes, snakes, and even bears have the ability to kill you if you stand on the tile they are on. Rams and Muflons are neutral and wont attack you if you stand near them. If You are planning to leave the village to do something watch the tiles you click on to make sure you dont step on something. But if you really want to be on the safe side just dont leave the village, and if you find a animal near the village tell someone who knows how to handle the situation. Also standing on and tile thats not empty will make you completely safe from any animals attacking you. Look at which biomes the animals are in so you know what to expect each time you go into one to better prepare yourself.

(Players): Sadly There are greifers in this game like any multiplayer game so you are gonna have to learn how to handle it. First, if you see someone with a bloody knife or bow first ask them why they did what they did. If its very obvious they killed the person for no reason curse them by saying "curse (the persons full in-game name)". NEVER kill someone for something minor like taking something from you, talk to them about it first and try to fix the problem that way. If they are stealing your stuff repeatedly and arent responding, or are killing people and not explaining themselves afterwards, ask someone to help you kill them or click on a knife and right click their avatar.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Farming: For farming you want to start with farming gooseberries, to do this you need soil and water

(Soil): To get soil first left click a basket if there is something in the basket right click it to take it out. once the basket is empty and you have it in your hands click on either a fertile soil pit or a compost pile


Then with a full basket of soil right click to pour a pile of soil near the gooseberry bushes on a tile thats empty.

(Water): To get water look around for a pond, or a well,

you can get water from both ponds and wells with just a clay bowl
.
However if the well has a bucket on top of it

you will first need to find a bucket yourself

and click on the well to get water from it. Once you drop it you can use a clay bowl on the bucket to get a bowl of water.

(Watering and resoiling): Once a gooseberry runs out of berries it will get darker in color, to get more berries from the bush now you must first use the bowl of soil on the bush, then use the bowl of water on it, after about ten minutes it will produce 7 more berries, after all the berries are taken off the bush it will repeat the cycle.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Other:

(Other Jobs): Theres alot more to do then just farming plants for food, and i highly encourage you to learn them all, but before you go fiddling around with tools ask people that know how to use them what they are for. If you start picking up random things without knowing how to use them all your gonna do is frustrate people that were trying to use them, so ask them how to do the job they are doing, or watch another player and what they are doing to figure out how to replicate their job that way.

(Parenting): If you are a adult women and you have a baby it is your job to feed that baby until it grows hair on its head, without you feeding it the baby will starve and eventually die, it is extremely important you take care of your babies as without any children the village will have no one to look after it making all the progress that village has made pointless. Your baby will say f to tell that he needs to be fed, you can feed your kid automatically by picking them up as though they were a item, every time you pick up and feed your kid you lose one food bar so make sure that there is some food nearby to feed you as well. Another tip is to try to keep you and your baby in a not to cold and not to hot area so that your kid needs to be fed less, and by proxy you will need to eat less from feeding your baby. 

(Questions): If you have any questions about anything more technical ask people in-game for help, or post a comment here about something. You can also make a post on this forum with a list of questions you would like to know. Lastly if you wanna get the source from the horses mouth or whatever saying that is, check out the wiki and tech tree which ill leave links to below.

So ive been getting into making all sorts of foods for my villages and wanted to know a couple of things that may or may not require math, questions go as followed:

1. how many people on average live in a village?

2. how often does one person in that village need to eat food?

3. Whats the average amount of food bars a person will need for their life or atleast a fraction of it?

4. how fast does a person lose hunger in a extremley cold/hot situation?

basically they act as a reset buttion for a certain number of tiles from the end stone tower itself, so instead of wiping the whole server, it wipes like 3 or 4 civilizations
