If you put 3 pies in your backpack then go to work.
Do you spent less or more time on work than if you take time to up your yum?

I think yum is helpfull when conditions are scarce but in a developed town I think it is not.

Hello Jason

Maybe you can contact Youtuber Law, a US lawyer specialised in tech industry and games.

He may give some info.

There is no merit to do simple easy things and doing what so many have done before.

In 20 min no one broke the lock or the wall?

Maybe an hour ago i started my client and it did an update.
Next i spawned to several eves who abandoned me.
One finally accepted me, and i helped building a village.
But sadly i was not able to get any kids, i was standing next to a fire with a nice temp, and a lot of jum bonus, but nothing helped.
So it looks like all civilizations got wiped out and on top of that the next eves kids will not be able to get more kids, is this how it works?

Indeed rhis is the game as it is intended.
You spawn one life and build a canp or continue an existing camp. But you cannot continuously improve it.
Sometimes you can find an old camp or town and has pleasure to witness changes.

#9 Re: Main Forum » [Idea] Anti Starve » 2019-03-06 12:51:54

you have a visual indicator already + sound
in wild you can easily feed yourself with no problem and in town you shouldn't starve unless no one is in kitchen or farm (in which case the town deserves starving)

When i read some comments i wonder if some ppl have abused mushrooms from the game.
They seem so far from the OP comment which is to be able to type digits, like all common games provide.

Why do you think the extra servers exist in the first place?
Answer me this question.


Here is what Jason says about servers.
I understand it is a tool for load balancing but he would prefer all players on same server.

jasonrohrer wrote:

What we had:  players spread out onto three or four servers for load-balancing purposes.  During peak times, this was necessary to prevent any individual server from becoming too overloaded.  During off-peak times, we kept sending players to all the p7reviously-active servers to avoid any one server dying out unfairly (see the earlier Population Stabilization update).  But this meant that during off-peak times, even with plenty of people still playing, the population on each server got a little thin.

What we want:  everyone playing on one server, together, all the time.

Léonard wrote:

Why do you think there is actually a mechanic in place that allows Eves to find their town back when the server has a low enough population?

What mechanic? Because with a maker planted on a server with only me as player i never respawned near my marker.




Personally i like to play in small group or alone.
But I hate the idea of a guy killing because he is scared of foreigners.


Maybe it could help if we could only respawn on friends. And only authorize friends to spawn on mother.
I saw a "friends" button on login screen but dont know what is it.

#13 Re: Main Forum » Asking names on server 7 » 2019-03-03 21:19:18

Anandamide I understand that players want to prevent risk of someone destroying what they did. It would be better they tell that instead of asking "who are you" then killing.

My concern is that guy did not explain. He behaved as if what he asked made sense.
But for me who discovered the game a few days ago that made no sense and was just the behaviour of a jerk.

Good practice would have been to explain to me. But no, he considered that I was necessarily a threat just because I was an outsider. That is very definition of xenophobic.
He asked multiple times "who are you". Which I did not understand because my mother gave me a name and had a lineage. He could read my name.

If he told me that he wanted to me to leave so they are safe. I would have understood. And he would have not to behave like an asshole.


And no, that is not hypocrisy from me.
I poped in a village, my mother took care of me and gave me a name and did not tell me they were playing as a closed community.
Therefore I decided to give time to this community. That is gratitude towards time my mother gave to me. Not hypocrisy.

Hello

When I go window screen it is 1613x1008 instead of 1920x1200

when I set fullscreen.ini = 0
and set screenHeight.ini = 1920
screenWidth.ini = 1200

my log.txt has

L4 | Sun Mar 03 20:04:20 2019 (903 ms) | general | New game starting up

When I play fullscreen.ini = 1
the game correctly sets to 1920x1200

-> How can I play in window mode at 1920x1200 ?
(I mean without having to manually ATL+Enter)

#16 Re: Main Forum » Asking names on server 7 » 2019-03-03 18:53:41

in irl I would whine if someone kills me after asking me who am i but no more reason.
if at least he told me to do my life somewhere else. but i just did not understand why he kept asking me who am I and the killing me for not answering his question which had no meaning for me.

the basics is to say you want to play in community and ask the player to go elsewhere. Not to kill him after 20 minutes !
therefore yes that dude is an asshole and that has nothing to do with people ignoring me irl.
that is not interaction here, that is murder.

#17 Re: Main Forum » What’s the surprise? » 2019-03-03 18:49:46

from that thread I understand that "lineage ban" prevents user to respawn in same familly if any of following event is triggered.
- living past 30 in a lineage
- being murdered
- committing murder
- using the /die command

https://onehouronelife.com/forums/viewtopic.php?id=5135

Now I understand that with area ban you can respawn in same lineage but not in the 2k of your last birth location.

what is "eve hell"? is it the fact children's eve are rare after reset, therefore eve has few children aka most alone ?
does it mean an eve is sure to respawn far from where she settled in her previous life?

i do not understand if you consider area ban usefull or not.

#18 Re: News » Update: Turbo Map Load » 2019-03-03 17:46:05

@tarr
no problem with my steam version of game, therefore that is probably specific to your installation of the game or computer.

#20 Re: Main Forum » Asking names on server 7 » 2019-03-03 17:39:00

seriously the false excuse of risking an outsider could wreck havoc in the village is lame.

yesterday i logged on server9, took care of a child and village.
then an asshole stabbed me because i could not provide a name and he did not know me.
his excuse was "risk is too high".
my ass.
In this case the real problem was that xenophobe dude.
not me. since I grew up the in village and was an adult when he killed me. I proved I was taking care of the village.

if guys want to play in community they must build their own server, not privatise a server provided by Jason for everyone.

Impressive photo of model partly covered by fur, in snow and ice. I immediately thought of Eve.
