Oh hell yeah you have to watch the sheep when they're in herds and startled, they'll trample you!

Just make sure you are full fed before you go in for the kill and if it's some troll that hasn't been spotted by them, get out fast as your mud wading legs will take you

Alternatively, actively stalk them. This one is more difficult and you'll need to be following their exit to spot where they're hiding their weapons etc. I could tell you the most likely spots but not on here for obvious reasons - zoom out mod helps for this and just about every other aspect of the game.

Such a shame you could not see what was going on with pairs continually acting together but outside town, only staying long enough to eat food and then rushing off screen (long before any culling) to be found making bows, obviously innocently right? lol
I established the compost chain, restored the farming, sheep, berries for you etc. The children all with the same name didn't freak you out despite them being mine and having run away so I could not name them? The sponges never helping but making bows in the wilderness didn't freak you out? How about the one knife we had only being recovered form one of their corpses after I shot them with a bow?

I contribute massively in any town I spawn in and no one who helps and is productive gets killed, but be a sponge and start acting weirdly with no explanation or mouth off in game and yeah, your future remains bleak and short. I wouldn't have returned to grief btw, or could you not see me saying a friendly goodbye to Mary, your mum after she helped you finish me off?

Meh if you don't get it now you likely never will.

My typical game lately if born into a town that is doing well is: Work the farms until my bar is big enough to warrant bigger food (this includes all the watering, helping assemble compost ingredients, feeding sheep, passing bowls of berries to the pie maker to mix things up when we have a glut). Later I'll assist on other farms for carrots firstly then milkweed and stew, this will go on until I have a good sized natural bar then: a trip around all food types I can find until my bonus is at least 6 - 8x if possible (+ around 5 or 6 boxes) and off into the wilderness where wild carrots, onions and burdock will stack me up a bit further and fill me up while on my travels. I'll usually be looking for other settlements, iron deposits, wild milkweed to make ropes and fill my cart with 4 baskets of goodies to take back. I'll probably arrive back in town with a lot of nice bonuses for them to waste on making a hat in a desert biome, knives or bows to kill each other with etc but hey
They yum means i spend far less time eating or frantically reaching for a berry and far more time doing fun/productive stuff, the more food variety in a small area the better!

Yep 'look ma i helping putting egg by kiln and berry!' lol

I have seen it work at times and seen a child born soon after with black text so promptly carried it to where it would be safe in the arctic biome while it typed n, o, n, o and then f, u haha

That's excellent, not least because it mentions making the farm AWAY from smithing area. Same can be said of bakery, for god's sake people leave some space for each area and have the main fire separate from all of them.

Just as in RL, having space to work away from hordes of kids or neighbours is important!

I like the 3 by 3 idea in different locations but every town I come across just has the one huge berry farm!

Ah there was nothing on the wiki, that's great ty!

3 of us, last generation, all males. They're ready to respawn instead when I tell them there is a chance if we die out form old age a new eve may come so we spend our time making sure it's a heaven for a new eve and before we all die - pop - an eve shows up and we spend our last years getting her established.

Interestingly we were unrelated males to each other as well.

I was Hank, She asked me to name her first girl 'Spring' - kind of a cool session

Hey wolfv! Aye I stumble across guys from ww2ol all over the place in the most bizarre games, always sandboxes like this though

In a town with a forge running yes, by the time I knew of this and started working on getting iron to make one All females were dead. You seem to expect every town to be running like clockwork and every player a veteran. If you are on a public server this is delusional to say the least.

How about removing the tools for griefing or making the penalties much easier to apply so newbies can focus on learning the ropes and maybe staying instead?

The boys are easily as valuable as the females. The fact they never have to stop to look after the kids means they can be Very productive, often being able to run the farms while cooking for example.
A dedicated smith with an assigned 'apprentice' is permanently on hand for all needed tools and making storage items like crates and carts. If he's male he can keep a large town permanently supplied with all tools and in time carts for all areas. Again I'd set that to a male and male child as he will be busy and the apprentice can go collect the iron/kindling while learning the trade or waiting to take over the role.
