One Hour One Life Forums

This is going to be a spoiled little bush.

I'm just glad I've seen Jason talk about these changes in the forum, and then seen them in onetech's unreleased content, so I could mentally prepare for the change ahead of time. Though, that's not going to give us an indication of where the next 'butter knife' is going to be, and how to deal with that. For that we'd have to go through the github data and look at what's, really, been changed, or, ignored.

I know there are still some, potentially, game changing aspects that people have mentioned, like fug and the 'snow forts'. I'm a little reluctant to bring it up, because, it will be changed, but being able to build a house from a single bank of snow, which has the potential to save a lot of food, given the near perfect balance of temperature inside, is pretty OP. But, average players aren't as keen on the relationship between temp and hunger. Nearly every life I still get picked up routinely by the fire by people who clearly are not considering my temp and food meters. They don't look at me and instinctually feel the clock stretch with each piece of clothing, proximity to heat source, or within the closed walls of a room.

When one of the biggest problems in the game is firewood being turned into kindling, because people don't want to take the time to collect branches, a key renewable resource in this game. They don't want to turn branches, into charcoal and use that to reset the fire via charcoal powder - no one does that, but it gives off a lot more heat, for a lot longer, than just throwing kindling onto the fire. It's a comparable amount of heat for a comparable amount of time, to firewood, and the branches are free forever, whereas cutting trees costs food...

It's going to be rough. I really hope those of you who understand these things, remain kind, and act quick.

Chuck the berries from wild bushes out and get those timers reset and make a lot, A LOT, A LOT! more bowls and pouches. The world, is going to need them.

Keep those branches growing.

You made me think of the floors and wallpaper in the original sims, so I typed sims floors into Google and that popped up as one of the picture. Wasn't sure which one it was from.

I was thinking more like the bear rug equivalent of fruit boots or seal skin coat; that they could be stolen or repurposed, but that it would be easier for, say, the jungle biome family, to gather resources from the jungle to make a floor covering, like, I don't know, maybe palm fronds. They could either just be laid on an existing floor tile, as fronds themselves, or be fashioned into something more like a conventional rug.
Maybe the gingers could have caribou or reindeer, and their fur could be fashioned into a rug.
Not sure about the desert. Lion was the first thing that came to mind because of the black people, but, lions don't really inhabit desert regions. I do know that in the Sahara, people farm olives and figs, generally near an oasis. Maybe people make things from those plant's fibers. I wonder what Berber carpets are made of? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berber_carpet looks like Olefin fiber, Nylon and wool, among other material.

Problem with my interpretation of your idea, is then, what do white people get? They haven't been given a biome to collect any unique materials. Maybe just something from the swamp, grassland, prairie or badland? Or, maybe they get a biome of their own. The ocean? The mountains? Maybe.. taiga?

I suppose I see what you are going for, with the more so family specific varieties, instead of the biome specific, resource based ones. Guess I'm not a fan though of the homesick, family well, idea, but I do see it as a new part of the game that can have a purpose, just not sure I like where it might lead, when the same players are born to families of every race, in the same world, it doesn't make a lot of sense to me. There is no loyalty encouraged, no Horde vs Alliance, sort-of mentality, to arise from gameplay. No preexisting story behind why there should be these distinctions, when again, all the same people.

I'm sure the Eve camps will have absolutely no problems.

So much, is possible...

But I do especially like the idea of biome/family specific floor coverings, given the current racial discriminations.

Definition 2, of course.

And Fish, I really hope you do. I really hope everyone does. Let us not forget, that we, are in full control of our lives. Every one of them, an opportunity, to make, do, and see, what we can become, of the world.

Clearly, there are, degrees of order we have found, amidst past chaos.
Let us all continue to shake things up, and watch the big nuts, rise to the top of the can.

We can make anything we want, of this world, and to those willing, with enough perseverance and determination, people will follow suit.
But not because we are forced, unwillingly, we must be inspired, enthralled, and motivated, by the prospects of satisfaction and reward, that those good habits, may yield.

The world, the world is not blind.

Enjoy yourself,
world,

enjoy the becoming.

I like it!
You do that ladies, and may the best, of the best, rise to glory and be the rulers of their world, for all time.

Even though I told myself in the past, "Next time I'm a ginger, I'm going to finish that that little piece of the road on the tundra." But did I do that this time?
No, I travelled thousands of meters all over the map, through uncharted territory, to find two, tiny, itty bitty gold nodes, so that I could proudly ring the bell, in my family's home!

DD, unless you want to, but why would you want to, where there is so much to live for?
Don't let the world get you down!
Grab your balls and JUST DO IT!

If you want to tell your mother you love her, despite the occasional lack of reciprocation, you keep doing that!

You want to run in a northwesternly direction for 57 years of your life, with a sharp stone in hand, eating only burdock and poking every turkey you see along they way, GO FOR IT!

If the urge strikes you to stack up a mess of clay balls, do it.
Do it because you want to, and don't feel bad about not doing anything else.
