I would gently remind you that this is just your opinion, nothing more, nothing less.

And I disagree with you.

If there is no room for other people's work in the towns you are in, how about running a private server where nobody will make what you consider to be mistakes?

Remember that the first rule of the game should be to have fun. Since we're sharing a world, let's try not to lessen other people's fun.

That means, griefing is lame, and accusing other players of being "not quality players" when they're having fun is contrary to what the game should be about.

I'm all for more buckets. Cut down some trees and make more buckets. Nobody's stopping you.

I suspect it is only too easy right now because there is never an exponential population growth. At least there doesn't seem to be more people in late game towns than in early game villages.

Would it be possible to have sinks hooked up with pipes to advanced pumps where we can get water with bowls, not buckets? Like a cistern, but functions like a shallow well. It would make life just a little bit easier

If ponds are rare and hard to find, as mentioned earlier in this thread, perhaps they could be surrounded by some plant or flower that would be an indication to experienced players that water is nearby?

How about...

Dogs can be trained into locating missing items?

Another request that's come up a lot:

Make burying people not waste iron

(Speaking of which, would it be possible to have a flat stone mine?)

I would love to see some form of tech that lessens the grind in mid / late game towns.
In OHOL we get better water pumps as we progress through the tech levels, but as someone mentioned, even in modern towns we water and fertilize bushes one agonizing bowl at a time.

The great thing about it is
- it gives kids a way to be useful while close to food
- it gives new players something to do, a feeling of mastery, they are useful to the city

However, it gets very grindy. I think Stardew Valley solved that problem in a very good way: Upgrading tools. By upgrading tools, we could care for more plants at a time. It gave a sense of progression, and of achievement when finally I could afford better tools than the ones I had.

Something as simple as a water can made of iron would be something worth striving for. And later, how about an irrigation system? A horse with plow to help spread the dirt more efficiently, perhaps it could even lessen the amount of dirt needed, so that the berry/compost needed vs yield would be better. Later on, a tractor.

This would improve the working conditions greatly.

We'd just have to make sure there was a way for kids to have something useful to do and for new players to feel useful.

Yes, well, planes are complicated to use as well as to make, given that there are no planes to practice on, so most players will never learn.

We might learn to leave the planes alone perhaps.

But it does sound like some fixes are in order.

There seemed to be planes and cars galore before the temperature update.

Life is harder now...

For projects like this, I guess there are things the town needs to provide the DADDYs as well. Like a surplus of food? A way to secure the lineage so the DADDY can be reborn to the town perhaps?
(I'm just guessing, I've never built advanced stuff myself.)

My feeling (based on very limited knowledge) is that if we could have an additional way to make backpacks, perhaps from cow hide, then more rabbit fur would go towards clothing in larger cities, people would be warmer, use less food, and we could more easily get the infrastructure going to care for the DADDYs properly.

Oh that sucks.

Although I remember from before the temperature update, when there were cars and planes around, they weren't for everyone. Often people would be killed if they used them, because it was seen as theft. I don't remember them actually being used for anything useful, they were mostly for show it seemed.

It's easier to spot when someone uses a horse cart to bring valuable resources back to town.

BTW, Twisted seems to have encountered a bug with the graves. They can sometimes change between names and the text 'forgotten person' and even between different people. See 22:00 here:

BTW II, I love being told about my relationship with the deceased when I look at graves and bone piles!

BTW III, I too think some form of cornerstone or just the ability to add a small plaque perhaps would be really cool.

Had a baby in my arms, disconnected, by the time I returned the baby was bones on the ground. Don't know what happened.

Last time I didn't reach age 4 my mother Eve decided to kill herself on a snake.

GJ with the iron

Also, I love the links to the photos from the family tree!
