One Hour One Life Forums

The more I've talked to people on this, the more it seems that a button to disable this comes as necessary.  Killing oneself purposely to avoid this system is not a good solution, and probably the only reasonable one for male players (killing all of one's sisters, mother, and nieces might be difficult, even if achievable, and isn't playing for the sake of one's descendants also).  Not everyone will enjoy going out of one's band to avoid having children as female.  The game gets titled one hour one life.  This might encourage some players who don't want to get reborn into the same family by default to play 59 minutes one life or 55 minutes one life, instead of one hour one life.  A button to enable or disable this system seems much more desire able so that players who don't want it can still play one hour one life.

In Eve camps wolf hats and mouflon hides are the easiest and fastest to get - one person can easily get whole family dressed with them. Some rabbits for loincloths and rabbit shoes. - That's the best beginning I think.

Later on I would always pick cloth clothes, because they look prettier. Having a little less insulation makes no difference (or very little) for yummers.

Tho I don't like when people feed sheep just to get wool and make clothes out of it. Feed lambs (from dimestic mouflons), always.

Then every town needs 6 mouflon in the pen.

It strikes me as a bit risky to have 6 mouflon in the pen, especially with mouflon hides on people.  Maybe badlands aren't usually too far away for 6 mouflon in a pen, but if they are, when someone has to go get another mouflon might take a long time (though maybe things wouldn't be that bad).  A second pen with a regular entrance, a space, then a property gate to lock up a mouflon if not some sheep might be advised.  Possibly even a first pen like that.

I'm also not so sure about rabbit shoes being faster than wooden shoes.  Wooden shoes might be faster.  The village will need butt logs for carts and a stanchion kit, if not two stanchion kits quickly.  An early table might be worth it for early burrito making/storage.  Early boxes are good too.  There's also the meat from rabbit fur shoes.  I think I'd make some wooden shoes, but not overdo them early on.  I'd think a balance between rabbit fur shoes and wooden shoes early on best.

Wolf hats seem like a no-brainer to me.  Someone will likely enough go out exploring and likely enough get killed by a local wolf, and that becomes less likely with wolf hats.  I don't know of any serious disadvantages to a wolf hat, other than decay, and other hats can get made later, or in conjunction with wolf hats once a pen with sheep is up.

I don't know why one who has thought about it thoroughly, would ever pick a reed skirt over a rabbit fur loincloth unless starting from scratch as an Eve perhaps, since reed skirts decay in 5 hours.  And even as an Eve starting from scratch I think waiting for a rabbit fur loincloth is better, or just going without clothes or going with a mouflon hide maybe as an Eve likely ends up better.  Reed skirts cost a lot also, and I think they only have value if milkweed *from the wild* would otherwise sit around and never get used. 

That said, sealskins as Eve I do think worth the time, or at least they can be if close enough and say wearing one will carrying another back to camp.  And I agree with Slinky about seal skins.  I've had a few lives also where I got people sealskins.

Do 7x7 rooms, they still work when standing in the center areas.

Heating will still work in some areas, but not in all interior areas for a building that is bigger than 6x6.  I think I once looked at the details for bigger buildings in low pop.  But, I'm not sure I exactly figured it out, and if I did, I don't recall the exact details.  The doors have to stay shut.  As I think you know, it's also very easy to undo the heat bonus, while in comparison no one can steal wooden shoes that you wear or someone else wears in this game at the very least.

I think it's OK, once people learn how to eve they'll figure out the importance of securing iron for future generations. Making iron more plentiful would just further marginalize the mountain biome specialists

So if you want latex and/or palm oil as white, and a jungle family has only one mine, you'll bring them iron for latex and/or palm oil?  Because you certainly didn't sound willing to do such before... https://onehouronelife.com/forums/viewt … p?id=10299

Those are just glitchy false positives. Escaped horses leave ghost items on the map data, and caves are always drawn with bears.

Not exactly glitches - every bear on a cave is a released bear, it's just long gone somewhere else to eat people or get shot. They aren't always drawn with bears, its just rare for a cave to be touched (appears on map) and not released.

I've thought of simulating expired items, but it is interesting to see fence outlines, bears, and horse cart activity.
