If you could make only ONE change to the game what would it be?

-stacking
-storage
-pregnancy preview (see: https://www.reddit.com/r/OneLifeSuggest … ie_issue/)
-property boundries
-unstring-able bows
-less grindy milkweed and rope
-multi-person transport

etc.

We talk about a lot of changes we would like to see here. But, if you had to pick just ONE thing to add or change what would it be?

Remove unorganized players that leave clutter everywhere

Re: If you could make only ONE change to the game what would it be?

Fix and fine tune the combat so the winner of a duel is a lot less "coin flippy".

Of course, seeing as that's not really realistic, I'd probably go with a version of the zoom out mod being a standard part of the game. Something a lot like whatever's new one with key bindings and the other conveniences.


Believe you're right, but don't believe you can't be wrong.

Change lineage ban to 1 hr, remove location ban. I miss the big central towns.. bells are almost as impossible as apocalypse towers now as a result.

But thats just me and I'm sure some could disagree with me.

More possibilities to have settlements in other biomes than swamp/grassland mix. Relocating and entire settlement is quite a feat, and starting off its really hard if you don't have close water or soil. Giving us someway to make full towns in savannah or badlands or even tundra would be a fun change of pace.

Re: If you could make only ONE change to the game what would it be?

Definitely adding in the zoom mod as an official feature. Practically unplayable without it.

Second choice would probably be making everything stackable, with only a few exceptions. Man would it help a ton with reducing clutter and organizing, esp old civs stumbled upon by eves..


I also like the idea of an official practice server with actual 'tutors', though that'd probably be doable on an empty server with eve chaining now that I think about it? One could feasibly set up a practice town through eve chaining on an empty server and invite new players by having them select the server. So long as you're fertile, they'd spawn to you as a baby first rather than another eve, right? Wonder why nobody's tried that before.

I have done this a few times by accident when breaking out the of tutorial area. Although it took the person I found a few moments to realize I was a real person that was in their tutorial area, when the confusion was gone I brought them to the extra area and taught them smithing 101.

Re: If you could make only ONE change to the game what would it be?

i am not sure i should suggest one main change
i think the gameplay is atm pretty balanced


even if i would wish for the game to be more historically correct, like stone age tools
or awbz mod replaced by regular features like craftable map & craftable zoom
i think, that forced exclusive one feature, one change only is not really my thing

Jason improves the game constantly, that's the best thing that can happen to a game
OHOL will grow & it will become a better & better game, i am pretty sure of it, only Jason has to stay on track, as he does so far

make a tool shed, this reduces clutter already
make a center
make main roads leading out of town in a straight line
make organized workplaces
educate players about benefits of returning broken steel tools to forge

Re: If you could make only ONE change to the game what would it be?

I've seen tool sheds that worked in very large towns. It should be near the smith. The smith aims to have one of each tool in the shed and makes whatever is missing next. This leads to every tool that is out in use having a ready back up.

If you died as a child, you'd get reincarnated into the last object you touched..
Not actually that useful but can you imagine having a possed axe!

I'd like to see a housing system where you could build a space where only people you invite, or that are directly related to you on the family tree could have automatic access to. cool

Re: If you could make only ONE change to the game what would it be?

I'd make babies not be able to move or at least VERY slow crawl.
This has the downside of making babies born outside a huge pain. BUT enforces male usefulness even more, Just don't go out till fertile and you'll be okay.
It also means babies can't run off to suicide or be annoying in general.



Altarnatively I'd like pregnancy, A very brief time for mums to prepare and babies to analyse the town. Mother's may abort at this stage but they don't know the gender. Babies could suicide without bones or running away.

I would make it so that whenever you try to put food in your already full backpack it wouldn't make you eat it.

I'd probably make it so you can have two parents, male and female, female and female, male and male whatever, I think fathers would be optional tho.

Give me that baby crawl. Maybe it'll convince kids to preffer to use /die instead.
However I understand they want to run away to avoid lineage ban. If they are born as a boy, maybe they want to return as a girl?
