One Hour One Life Forums

I'm saying it again, but I liked old killing system mechanics with no countdown and posse required. People cared about having lots of healing pads, about having many red cross aprons and healers. With the old system we could easily heal the good people and kill the bad guys in this scenario. Even if someone was trying to grief all healing pads by making them dirty, we could react right away and stop them from doing this, we also had pads in our aprons.

I know you love property fences, but... I don't. I actually dislike them, furthermore I'm even scared to use them as people keep cursing for using them. And what could we do in this situation to prevent griefers from killing us? Lock whole smithing? If smithing wasn't locked they would just make another knives. Lock all iron? Even if smithing was locked they could just make new adobe kiln.

I played this game a lot and I know people don't like property fences too. That's why there are no property fences around things.

Maybe you managed to craft everything that is possible, but I guess about 95% of people haven't. Majority are newbies. They will stay for longer if game mechanics are more pleasant for them, I don't think they actually need more content.

I enjoy playing with people that aren't totally useless. If newbies will keep quitting almost right away after buying the game, we will always have about 90%+ of people that can do nothing. If people actually start staying with the game, overall skill will increase. Then we could actually ask for content that would make this game really cool and not only minority could enjoy it.

Great!

Yeah, I'm also worried it may be OP.

Maybe a top cap could help if it actually turns out to be OP.
Let's say 15 yum would be the cap (or whatever you put, maybe a live setting? So you could decrease it as needed), then every next yum food would give you 15 pips (or whatever the cap is). This way people still will want to have as much food variety as possible, especially when doing hungry works.

Would be nice to also nerf milk together with this change. People lately drink more and more milk and it's definitely way too op, especially after this change people would take milk with them to do every hungry work.

Yeah, me too. Something should be done with all these newbies...

Dammit, unbreakable yum chain could improve their experience for sure, while not really affecting expert yummers, they would eat only yum things anyway.

I'm also tired of the amount of newbies we have and that there is no way to stop them from berry munching. With unbreakable yum chain they could realize it by themselves that it's not a good thing to just berrymunch. Eating variety of food would be not only fun for them but also rewarding.

And also this would make sense. Why would a few meh foods make you "unhealthy" if you are also constantly eating so big food variety?

I feel like this change would improve this game a lot. Please Jason, consider this.

Only first family's well site unlocks iron veins.

Also after the next update (tomorrow probably) it will work like this:

I just played a life, someone made an engine in black family's town, there are still many uses of newcomen pump, so I decided actually making a property fence to protect the engine from being stolen. I made a 1x1 property just to put the engine there. There was a kid that removed it. I made it again and told him to not touch it, told him that I want to protect the engine. He cursed me and started removing it again. I cursed him back, got a knife and killed him (people joined me because they agreed that we need the property to protect the engine), this guy got another curse or two. It wasn't actually me who got him stabbed. A girl came from farming just to curse the killer and went back to farming. There were also 2 people who said "curse you" in a place with about 8 people standing close to each other, so probably 2 random people got cursed too.
So much drama about one property, lmao

Engine is hidden in the property rn.

Btw, I will actually make property around diesel pump next time I see it. Just a 1x1 property with the well inside. I'm worried I will get cursed, but I will risk it, will see if it's worth it.

While I like having finite iron (infinite with kerosene), I really dislike the way how unlocking iron veins work and their grid placement.

Damn, looking for a natural spring that has at least 2 iron veins and is in a pretty decent place in grassland, with easy access to swamps and yellow prairies must be really time consuming and  annoying for Eves.

I think it's just you that did it exactly once, perhaps long time ago, that's why you think "most people do it" too. I mean, you shouldn't even give suggestions to change yum mechanics if you are an inexperienced yummer. Current yum mechanics work just great.

I see on live-dev-changes that food is being reworked again, so no sense to continue this topic, gotta wait and see what we get.

Don't compare me to spoonwood, pls, I'm actually a smart person :P

Pein, top cap would make it so boring and totally not worth yumming at all. Just give yum a try, it's funnier and easier than you think, you see "yum/meh" when you holding a food, and it's not hard to remember foods that you ate. I love to see towns alive instead of what it was before - people being damn lazy because they didn't actually need to do anything.
And I don't think yumming is a selfish act, the more yummers, the more different foods we will see in towns. Even if someone plant one green bean, it has 5 uses, right?.
When I cook, I cook many different pies now, I don't care that I make berry pies, I don't care eating raw corn, they are still great foods for yummers, and it's damn fun.

I made 26 yum chain one life, is milk still better? Maybe a little, but the downsite of drinking only milk is that you need to drink it every while, getting it with you outside of town is inconvenient and most important drinking only milk would be damn boring. With yumming you can easily make your food bar having +40 food bonus, and you can forget about eating for a long time and focus on your job.

Yumming is the way to go, if someone doesn't yum, they surely won't enjoy this change.
Last life at about 20yo I already had full food bar and +40 bonus pips. Foods give less pips and that means you can eat more foods at once and that results in more + pips from yum bonus.
Ironically this change made that yummers have to eat less frequently... Just wait to a point when you are starving then eat many yum foods at once, you will have lots of time without eating, so you can be productive at that time.
