One Hour One Life Forums

the answer isn't more food as you've clearly found out the hard way...its lower population density. 

Honestly you should have stabbed that kid that took four pies.

he might be afraid of starving but he should be more afraid of the baker with a knife.

good shit miskas, really like the naming strat I've been using A B C names for child order which doesn't really add much.  I might adopt your Z V N naming convention.

Major truth to this only done four lives in baby apocalypse first one was in beri locust camp and fitness got rekt 6 points.  Bounced the next three lives and made outposts and fitness went up.

nomad strats til the races converge then we can make cities.

Teaching kids temp control and to feed off eve til five helps as well if eve camping.

Edit ok done editing i think meh

You're forgetting the feasters who eat yum food as a staple. 

Yes in theory but in practice how much yum food gets wasted?  Sure a perfectly modeled citizen could be more efficient but we're dealing with society totals not the lone uber gamer who makes it better.

slightly off topic I made a beri pie for yum and was cursed for it. LOL!

Make Eve splinter camps flee the locust beri village immediately

I'm gaining fitness and making stable eve camps, learn to fire and teach kids that one thing. 

Eve Camp Rules -

kids feed til five off eve
kids sit at / on fire til sevenish
eat first beri followed by beri in bowl at sevenish.  Depends on if they fire dancing and fed at 4.9 years old
teach them to control temperature aka fire dancing   regular fire sit on it large slow fire step on heat up step off repeat.
omelettes are not kid food.
Don't steal camp tools. we very poor

Do those things, be a good cook and smith, you will gain fitness. 

I'm Edris Cavan on the leaderboard and I'm maintaining the number one spot thru the "noob apocalypse" Helps having 10 tool slots tbh.

Any other questions?

Honestly we've lost the basic fundamentals thru the game by rushing tech for the players. All we used to have were "eve camps" newcomen pumps didn'y exist well spam did tho ha.

Camp rules are not city rules.  In the city you can feast on beri and have no issue.  In eve camps its a huge issue.

I took a 6 point fitness hit by staying in the Beri Locust camp and attempting damage control...I didn't make that mistake twice neither should you.

Tbh yumming probs not worth if viewed from a water efficiency stand point however as a quality of life benefit it is invaluable to me. 

Honestly on some chains I don't eat after 50 if I chill by the fire...that allows for a lot of end of life affairs that can be handled at the hearth, writing notes, giving lore and interacting with newly spawned players.

Can do hungry work when too young or old with yum.

Furthermore ever seen an old guy gobble down a pie or more in the last few minutes of his life because he wasn't yumming?

I think it comes down to play style, I certainly lose time running around looking for yum I try to be efficient about it when possible however I will go out of my way to yum.

Also yumming is great for cooks because you end up cooking anything possible and end up learning a ton of recipes, all in the pursuit of yum. LOL

One more thing to consider about yum and food diversity....it's better for longevity and fitness...why?  because mono diet is boring if someone lands in a town with an impressive dining hall with top tier recipes cooked I've observed they stick around longer. 

Honestly those factors are tough to weigh yeah it's less water efficient but the quality of life from the extra hunger obtained is huge. 

I'd venture to say factoring the fringe benefits of yumming it would be borderline too good at two bonus pips.

Honestly the fact that I have to make navigational decisions now based on whether or not I'm carrying something makes exploration more dynamic, before I used to just charge across the map on a horse only caring about the desert biome and snakes.

Now I actually run into blocks that I need to plan around and makes the world seem more immersive tbh.

Roads also seem very practical now since a specialist can literally pave the way for the next generation to travel thru the bad biome.

Just my two cents tho.

Hi baby! 

Asks for name? I'll name you when I'm forty if you live X years til I'm forty.

Perform follow test. If fail retest, fail again? let baby die.

Perform stay test.  Won't stay? Retest doesn't stay? Won't raise.
 
Tell only thing mama wanna hear if K or F.  F for food and K as acknowledgement.  Failure to stop talking?  Abandoned / disowned.
 
Give relevant village and situational data.

Clothe if  available, name if they didn't ask.

Might ask them to saw logs or drill discs if none in town.  Basically tax them a tool slot which all Eves should do imo.

Send em on their way.

That's an ideal scene obviously sometimes it's just stay on the fire mama is busy.

cool i've been getting huge fitness hits from yumming and suicide babies

oh yeah forgot make meds, wear an apron and be sure to lock in weapon skill in your slots. Kill and curse griefers that one bad apple can cost you a lot of fitness.

By make meds I mean like full apron 2 or three bowls with needle and thread in different locations and monitor them.

If you do spot a bad apple alert town before attacking, make sure others observe the person first so you don't get killed as the "griefer" or so the town doesn't waste meds healing the griefer.

At 45+ fitness living to sixty only get you .2 fitness btw

serious the new biome mechanics are griefer havens adapt and overcome i guess.

so gonna need three specialist competent guards to be safe from grief.....oh boi

nice in game surveying map is a powerful tool I'd def be interesting in helping this venture.  if have two bells ringing you can use bell timers to triangle position on map as well.  Long as we standardize the grid and numerals we gucci.
