Can't Walk For The First Year

If babies can't walk until they are one it would make raising kids even more annoying, just like Jason wants.

Maybe that can be a good nerf to letting us put babies in carts/backpacks/tulas.

Re: Can't Walk For The First Year

I would be 100% with this if we had slings for mothers to carry babies with while still being able to work. I actually just posted something on the OHOL reddit about this https://www.reddit.com/r/OneLifeSuggest … by_slings/

Re: Can't Walk For The First Year

Honestly, it would help a little bit with babies moving away from mother upon birth and getting killed accidentally.

Re: Can't Walk For The First Year

But then I can't see who's a good baby and goes to a warm tile on their own. sad
Oftentimes I have to follow a hunter mom so it's good I can move with her.
Also sometimes you are born in the wilderness and have to dodge a wild animal.
Also runner babies (they still do it) couldn't run and I want those to run if they don't know about /die command.
Restricting player's movement is a lot when being a baby is so restrictive already.

I rather have something else to make babies challenging, even if static babies would be realistic.
Slings would be great though.

Re: Can't Walk For The First Year

The nerf is ridiculous in comparison with the advantages given by slings or other way to carry babies, i'm not sure it is "just like Jason wants"

Really? Haven't played mobile yet (hour on my phone sounds stressing). Most suggestions have already been made or implemented in a fork.

Jason is on the record in many places saying babies should be a nuisance. He rejected babies in carts for a long time for this reason saying "choose the baby or the cart". The community finally convinced him and he agreed to do it on reddit

Another reason I like this is it would stop suicide babies from running to the nearest bear cave and poking it. Most will just /die than wait.

Re: Can't Walk For The First Year

I don't say babies unable to move for the first year is a bad idea, but to say it will make baby gestion harder is a joke if it come with slings, that's all. The question "should baby gestion be harder" could be discussed, but to me it seems obvious slings are not what jason want, he said it many times he wanted babies to be a full time investment, and that's is exactly the contrary if u can keep doing things while having a baby.
Maybe Jason will concede cause on forums people yell for slings. So to make babies unable to walk first year to make baby gestion greater investment, yes it could be "just like jason want, but why then add strings, who completely break and baby gestion in general and this specific adding ? Baby unable to walk make gestion harder cause you can't just say the baby "follow me" then do your stuff. If you can put him in a sling it just cancel the thing...

Re: Can't Walk For The First Year

Please don't do this, so many of my best lives started with an Eve that initially abandoned me but broke down and picked me up after I kept following.

Re: Can't Walk For The First Year

If this happens could we be born AFTER we a loaded in? It's a Shame to die immediately.. Maybe a female is visiblly pregnant until their child loads in?

Re: Can't Walk For The First Year

Baby slings and non walking first year babies sounds great.  (And slower in the second to third years, seriously, have you ever had to walk with a two year old?)

Re: Can't Walk For The First Year

please, for the love of god, no. I have had kids behind trees, been born behind tress, and had problems with not being unable to pick up babies, and the only way to fix it is to have the baby move/move myself if I'm the infant. this alone would cause waaaay more infant deaths, especially with eves who are trying to find a good spot, and lose their only girl behind a tree.


i used to name my kids alphabetically. now i just... dont play anymore.
