One Hour One Life Forums

Best is to just spam super hard, and try not to make em block to much. 14 water every ten hours
is >1 water a life. Not amazing but better than nothing, and it is forever assuming your city survives
etc. Obviously try to spread your uses so you are less likely to empty it.

Been in cities with well spam, it is nice to live there. Some wells go dry, some wells respawn no biggie.
If you have 35 wells in various states of respawn it is sorta like there are some extra ponds around is all.

Might be interesting to have a well room with stone walls and two armed guards for the well master who
watches over 40 wells. You bring your carts to him with a lil food and he fills your bags.. If he likes the look of ya

If you are gonna have a GIANT wall of text break it up a bit or drop the lines down to make it easier to read..

Example:

With the recent reactions the the 'Riches to Rags' Update, there is probably no better time to discuss difficulty in games than now. One Hour One Life has had a large skill curve for what is likely its entire existence, however there was an issue of "Well, the town is built now, there is nothing left to do." at the same time. Difficulty seems unanimously controversial no matter what game it's in, whether they be deemed 'too easy', or 'too hard', each player anticipates a different experience, comes from a different background, and more importantly, everyone has a different tolerance for different ways games are difficult. For the sake of the argument, let's assume that players don't face any arbitrary limitations, outside the game itself. Lifestyle is a valid concern, as learning difficult systems, or really a new game in any scenario, does take time, and resources from our day, however we should assume that the players have enough time for a full 'sitting', each time they play.

See how much easier the 2nd one is on the eyes?

2nd, I read through that whole thing and you basically just said that difficulty is a hard
thing to make fit lots of different peoples skill levels and playstyles. If you are going to
write out a big long text wall have some consideration for the people that are reading it
and try not to drone on and on without telling them much in the end. People will just TLDR
you and move on and if you get a rep for doing it they will just ignore you completely.

DUDE can oven bases contain sheps?!?!?!?! imagine how fast it would be to bring back like 15 adobe!

I had to say it...

Ted is Dead

I have asked for food when I have none and gotten saved to keep working, F is fast to type sometimes
someone with backpack or one time my lil brother I hand fed when Mom ran out of milk saved my life <3

Mutton pie farming is strongest strat for your water and skewers atm I think.

Poo only comes from sheps that are growing up and sheps have multiple babies
so you can keep feeding babi sheps and use their poo to plant 1 or more beri bush
and some carror for the bowl. You even have some extra soils to expand your farm
and or milks. The end result is spare grain (need straw for every compost cycle)
and a grown shep and 2 soils.

This means you can make FOUR mutton pies EVERY COMPOST... Yes true <3 Poop
farming is stronk meta compost is also cheap on skewers as neither beries nor whet
need skewers/hoes..

Another cool thing with having internal counters on items that wear down is that you
can combine variable wear with variable initial "hp" you can make an axe for example
have 30+r(20) HP from an adobe forge but perhaps some higher tech forge can make
a nicer axe with 40+r(20) or whatever made sense. You can even limit your transitions
if you wanted to show the wear visibly like you are doing already. Have it use different
sprites for different HP ranges or if you wanted repair you could have it transition to a
worn axe at some point with a lower amount of hp. I assume that you will want items
that have hundreds uses (cars for example) and this multiplying problem of interactions
will only get worse.

There is a hidden city on the edge of the desert and marsh with a patch of land that is the same temp as naked in a campfire with a big stone wall about a third the way completed and two blocks I cut incorrectly when trying to help make walls :$.. It might still be there. If you find it there is plenty of water north and there is a fence post for the horse cart at the water hole and a half done sheep pen with loose sheep roaming like madmen. If you find it we worked hard on that city <3

Good! We needed our Mom <3

When I give the "U" they usually don't get it

It is harsh when you can only type one letter at a time so you can't tell people to go fuck themselves lol...

Need decay to make the professions beyond farmer tenable though..
It really sucked when you finally learned to smith and the village NEVER needed your skills again.

It isn't often enough to tell people not to waste, you must show them a better way. Once you show
them a better way it is harder for them to do the old way because they will judge themselves and go
into shame (people normally avoid this). You can say "lets be a team we can make tons" this appeals
to their vanity, is a good trick to convince people.

It only helps that it is true. ;D

I have never seen people make pies like I do with all the parts laid out in a grid so you can bounce
like a devil across the tiles and spam it out so fast. I am a baking machine. Forging like a master is
harder to set up as a lone smith. You are often very cramped at the set up to your forge as the
ancestors do not usually think like we do for mass production.

You are right, lay out the flat rock in advance, lay out the crucible in advance the bowls the plates.
With two people you can forge more than double he amount for the same fuel. We can build a tradition
of master smiths and bakers together!

It will take work, we must ask the young to be our apprentices while we work the hammer. This is a
good way because the hammerer needs to be precise so they make the right tool head. Teach the
apprentice to use curved and skinny branches for fuel instead of the maples. Save the maples for the
handles. Perhaps a thread about being a master smith and baker is in order!

Through the mind we find reason, through reason our actions can be ordered, and through ordered action
we can reach harmony with the process. Through harmony we approach perfection.

It is a glorious thing to be a master in a craft no matter how menial it may seem. It is just as noble to fill the
ice tray perfectly as it is to fix a car perfectly etc etc.
