One Hour One Life Forums

thx Eve for linking the server. very much appreciated!
To try it out you just need to enter the IP: 37.120.188.155
Currently im working on Open Life reborn a lot to improve it, so feedback  is very much welcome.

Currently in Openlife Reborn you are born close to your old grave with at least a grave stone. So you should be able to work on your village with your friends. Also you can currently teleport to your graves with a gravestone using say: '!TG'.
Later if the AI works well teleporting will be deactivated or cost a lot of coins, yes there is a custom currency
Currently with say '!JH' you can jump to other humans if there are, this will too be deactivated once twinning is implemented. But for now it can be used to play together with some friends.

The idea is that you build some small village with an oven and so on and the Ai keeps then living there an making babies. So if you join back and have a nice grave close the chance to be born there should be near to 100% if there is a close fertile mom. The Ai could also build ovens and for on, but for now i let the humans decide how the permanent village stuff looks.

Its also quite easy to setup an own server at least according to Colin who tried it out

There is also the plan to make much better property management then on vanilla server to protect your stuff while being offline. Something in the direction of how Rust has it, or castle doctrine if you know some of Jason other games.

great to hear!

And yes combat system is fully redone.

You can hit someone also if not hit the perfect right tile, but then your damage is reduced the more you missed.
Also it uses the exact location to calculate where you are, so it considers also less then full tiles like 0.2 tiles away.

You have now hitpoints equal your max food pipes. So kids have less grown up more unless very old.
Good health / YUM increases also your max food pipes / hitpoints.

Different weapons do different damage.

Clothing protects against some damage depending on insulation.

You get prestige / score mali for attacking kids / close relatives / allies and so on (if they have no weapeon)

For sure it needs some more testing and balancing, but should be much better already then vanilla where only leader can kill.

Should be, if not let me know i can do a restart (for fast response ask me in discord).

in November i plan to spend some more time on development like implementing some basic property protections like chests and doors with number codes to protect your stuff while being offline.

Most stuff should currently work, of course the map is currently quite small, but this is intentional to allow a more alive map. Later it might be increased in size. But it round, so the world should not feel boxed in...

And to making families meaningful:

Why not ability to create a tool depended on the family?

A family first needs to invent the tool by spending hard X work
Once invented the hole family can make this tool

Maybe also some more skill points for each tool can be added that reduce hungry work when this tool is used?

To make the last living child of a family more meaning full sols close to this family could incarnate as guardians that can speak and help little bit the last kid, but are otherwise invisible.

The last child could even get some last call survival skills depending on the prestige of the family.

By the way currently in Open Life Reborn Players are saved, so families can survive a server restart. The Ai takes over until the human soul reconnects. Also if one has connection problems the Ai takes over until a player reconnects.

What was the exact text of the message?

Yes /leader currently some how crashes quite often the client. Seems like some following information is not how the client likes it. since the client does not give any meaningful debug message i could not yet solve it.

Hi Bobo!

Dont all children in all worlds homeschool with Jasons kids? Remember he is VOG and all kids are from him...

ok, sadly not all homeschool...

Since the bug list is getting shorter and new mechanics seems to work mostly fine i think its save to say that we reached Early BETA. This means the server is playable but might have some bugs and new mechanics could need more balancing. Also not yet mass  tested. Thanks a lot to all the testers going on the journey together. Your feedback helped a lot!

A list of known bugs and what is missing you can find here:

UPDATE:
The long awaited update you can kill now Moskitos! Its not easy, but you can do it!

Have a nice hunt!

- Allow killing of Moskito with Firebrand
- Sapling regrow now on original and cost some little hungry work

Finally thx to vicmortem and jinbaili83 we finally found out why the client got stuck. It waited for a feeding movement to happen... Thx a lot for the testers!

Its not 100% perfect yet but should be 10 times  better!

UPDATE
FIX:
-better movement calculation since client got stuck when fed and waiting for movement of feeding player.
not 100% solved yet, but should be lot better... hopefully...
- Cannot make infinite pies out of one Bowl of Dough anymore

AI:
- tries to stay longer in good temperature
- does not wait if place does not help for temperature

Sorry, by accident i just restarted the server while one was playing. Was backonline after few seconds. At least I used the chance to update...

UPDATE:
near complete rework of hungry work:
- hungry work creates now some heat
- you can only do it if not too much heat
- hungry work cost nearly halved
- iron mine have now like trees alternative outomes that give stones / flat stones on higher mines
- it counts now the hits on a tree or a mine, so even with bad luck at one point the tree / stump will be cut / removed
- all trees should now be hungry work even pines

- pies should now start with full food value after baking
- snow biome should now spread much less fast in winter
- reworked some server stuff to hopefully speed up server reaction time

AI
- should consider now more far away places

Have fun!

UPDATE:
FIX: lot of movement fixes if client is lagging behind the server. Still not perfect but should be lot better.
FIX: try drop player if held by other in reconnect since client cant handle
FIX: Allow use of bow at close range if it is not an moving animal (solves Ai trying to shoot Ghoose)

- Some more custom decay transitions for engines and high end tools (not perfect yet, but an engine wont suddenly fully disapear)
- Give summary of players achievements on age 58
- Give message about coins an how to use it ever 10 years

AI: dont destroy engine
AI: try to die in home at old age
AI: dont try to get water from nowhere with a bowl
AI: better handling of heat (Ai saves where it saw good warm or cold spots and even inherit them to kids)
AI: some more minor fixes

With this update movement lag is excpected to be much less. Also client schould not get stuck anymore after a position force. The Ai should now hopefully handle temperature lot better and try to die at home, so that you can loot it easier.

Have fun!
