Well smithing as hunger work could be hilariously impractical. Using the tongs would be hungry work, so you have to put them down mid-fire when making steel for an axe in order to go eat, and then the fire goes out, because you went to eat.
Yes make this happen!
How about making it easier/quicker to get flat rocks so that more roads can be built?
this solves everything, long roads are easy land mark and people can actually find each other...
Make flat rocks like railroad so you can make multiple uses of one flat.
Yap its baby death simulator.
I dont even care about the memerscore, other than the additional tools slots help you aid the village more, but its just too much at the moment to withstand.
Theres always that one moron who over feeds everybaby and no village can survive long enough for the different families to meet up.
If there was no family specialization update and if map wasn't wiped recently it could be different. There would be more developed towns, and even in less developed towns it could be much better since we would be able to upgrade wells.
I witnessed first hand a town with ten cisterns full of water, diesel pump and every tech rot in few generations today.
You can't pump enough water for the berry locust invasion! They come and they eat and the everybody will starve, except the nomad eating wild berries 1000 tiles out of town.
Ofc these changes should only last for few dayes/week after a huge influx of new players.
1. Make every domestic berry bush a wild berry bush. Newbies thrive from berries so make em abundant.
2. GM mod for few experienced players. Infinite hungerbar, lifespan, super elder "skin", spawns only one fertile woman until that said females lineage dies out. This way they have time to teach kids and help the town roll into atleast somekida future.
3. Birth cap for females. No one can handle 40 mouths alone.
4. Eves only give birth to non new players. Eve camps cant handle these new mouths and just have to starve em or fail by trying to give them a go.
5. Make smithing/baking hungry work and sharpstone a tool, cause why not.
6. Spawn mosquitoes everywhere! REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

im dying inside.
I think it might have something to do with people needing a relatively high gene score to get to be Eve at all. New Eve's should spawn, but it can't be one of the bazillion new players. Veteran players however live much longer than the average noob.
Say there's 8 noobs and 2 veterans, noobs live to age 10 on average (which is generous in this situation), veterans to age 60. If looking at gene score, only the veterans should get to be Eve.
The birthrate isn't 80% noobs and 20% veterans, cuz the noobs can live 6 times as many lives as the veteran can in the same amount of time. This means babies are more like 96% noobs and 4% veterans. Then count in that the veterans aren't fertile for over half their life, and all the babies get dumped on the ones that are. In the next life, the veteran may have tanked so much in score that they don't get to be Eve (again), but instead they're born as girls into an existing family. Once there are enough girls in the family, boys start being born. No new families, but a large influx of players being dumped on a still low number of fertile women.
Can also consider that the players with the highest gene score in the game at any given time (setting that bar for who gets to Eve) only play one life and then decide not to play another. They would get to Eve, but simply don't because they don't want to indulge in the madness. Anyone with a lower score doesn't get to Eve cuz of being compared to that player who doesn't actually play after.
No worries you drop from that "veteran spot" with your eve runs... --->from 64 to 30 today, guess no more eve runs for me XD
Haven't, ever cared much about the memerscore, but the additional tool slots were quite handy in artificial respiration of the towns.
XD just had a succesful start where i was like 2nd in lineage or so.
We scavenged wild, got skirts, essential fire tools, bow and shot some mouflons for hides then found a starved camp with kiln.
All what i did:
-Get 4 sets of mouflon hide, skirt cloth
-Fire tools
-9x9berry field
-Rushed smith hammer, shovel and axe.
-Opened well
-Got long fire going
For this im now 343 place in genes... GG still memerscore.
I get that its cause the steam influx.
Its good to get new players and have larger player base, but if birthrate of one female is like 20/30ish, then most of them will have a terrible experience and wont continue to play this game and maybe even just refund it.
Yap, been in the uselman town. They get all the newbies... As eve camps cant keep babyes.
It's a hell hole. Super advanced town with diesel and all, but the locusts keep eating everything. So i bet in few hours that town has burned all the water it has acces to and it will wither and rot.
Eve camps are torment of another sort... You get this same spawn rate of babyes but cant keep em. So everything get filled up with bonepiles. If you are smart you just keep the babyes that can "Q" XD or if not the locusts will strike and eat everything empty whilst providing nothing. You literally get 20 or so babyes one life. Every eve camp dies out cause theres always someone that feeds every locust there is and the camp will tornadoe into mass starvation.
Had even one camp where the kids went salty and started to grieff forge hard as we couldnt keep every baby.
This thing is putting me on edge of a mental level where im thinking of just going on for bow massacre until something is done.
The birth rate is terrible!
You literally cant do anything if you want to keep the babyes... Something should be done to this or they just get a terrible experience.
The locusts eat every town empty, work none, and you pop 100 of em in one game.
Went from 1st place at genes to 100...
HELP US REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

I honestly prefer playing vanilla bc I find all the features of the mods distracting. Nothing against the mod creators, but I REALLY do not want to download a mod just for the sole purpose of locating other races and towns.
If it takes a mod to make the game playable for your moderate/expert players, to me that means something is critically wrong.
+1 I dont mod either. Mods are for noobs.
Having zoom mod doesnt tell anything about how experienced the player is. I run vanilla only and have 1000 hours.
Prairie horses?
or donkeys? slower than horse but lets you ride trough bad biomes
+1
Slower and even more tedious than horses XD
Also no cart on donkeys, just two baskets.

Mods are for noobs. Vanilla experience best experience.
Do something like smoke signals for civs to let know of their location early game. Use cape on a Fire and it gives a black "!" notifier on screen like murders etc. Also add somekinda cooldown on it so ppl just dont hard spam it. Lets say 1min.
Or maybe it could work sameway the townbell works. With same kinda cd ofc.

Yap, i made some maps too. Seems like the only way to get town rolling is to get blacks, gingers and brownies to same town. Maps help quite a bit. Spammed like 20 or so maps to towns too.
Seems like first we need blacks and brownies to get rubber going on. Gingers are late game power house...
No one needs white priviledge.
Nah this doesnt work cause new grieff mechanics. They would just eat every progress item, but hey you can always eat leafs.
"that dude just ate up all our hoes"
Whatever wrote:People who build swastikas in game dont do it because they are nazis, they do it to provoke people.
They do it so people get pissed and come to the forums and complain about it.
Then they laugh about you, every image you post about it gives them fame, every insult you throw at them joy.Yeah, well, many online communities hire moderators.
We're supposed to self police.
How do you suggest we do that?Arkajalka:
All you're doing is proving that the forum ought to be moderated.
Edit: It is. I reported your post.
Oh wow XD whatever. If this is really the direction this forum takes then im all fine being banned.

Mushrooms play a huge part in natural decomposing cycle too. Shrooms could play a part in the composting cycle.
unshitted wet compost pile + shroom + shit = twice the soil
Theres edible , medical , poisonous and psycoactive shrooms. Some strains are pretty easy to cultivate too. Deffo think shrooms have huge potential than being just occasional extra yum and troll tool.
Maybe the mediacl shrooms would need some chemistry kinda thing to separate the good ingredients from the bad.
Extrating, separating, mixing or whatever. Form into pill git buff or if the mixture is bad debuff/DEAD.

This XD. All these tears and sweat over the issue just gives it more value.
Laugh it off thats it. Nothing else need to be done.
Social justice warrior is a thing that fights for "freedom" no matter the costs. A opposite to adolf hitler. True evil of the left side.
XD Human rights were invented way before sjw's and women have equal power to men if not even more.
Also how can i be triggered when im posting dick butts XD
Maybe if they would have had few sjw's running around back then they would have condemned speaking of giving women right to vote a hate speech and we wouldnt have that problem.
Trying to silence online community, is dead effort. I see 100x more value in just keeping everything open.
Triggers get triggered. That SJW is never going to come to forums and discuss about symbolism and iconography. Ze just gonna log straight into some social network with dem hashtags #hatecrime #banhatespeech. Or even worse spam post suggestion about sexchange surgery content.
If someone gets offended by a symbol (or anything at all)i really think you dont even need that kinda persons around you.
People who are actually open minded and not condemn every freaking thing straight at a glimpse are usually the ones that make the world turn around. Invent new things, try different style of aproach and actually create something new (or tons of hitler dickbutts).
What has any SJW brought in to this world? Silenced opressed majority that is boiling inside provoking the next race war?
Dealing with tough issues by making fun of it is best way to deal with it.
