You go to a different seed, find a dark forest and load yourself down with stacks upon stacks of copper, then log out and back into your original seed which is still saved and you load into where your bed is? Doesn't have to be a different seed; just a different world. You can use the same seed for both worlds if you want.

I discovered that you can right click tools and stuff in your non-hotbar inventory to equip them. No need to fiddle with the hotbar every time you want to plant some seeds or flatten ground.

Spent a couple hours just chopping down a forest for a couple chests full of wood for (char)coal; game is even more amazing when I can get a tree to fall on a tree which breaks and falls on more trees, causing a multi tree combo that wipes out half a slope.

Heh, storage walls. It's possible to clip chests slightly inside each other, getting 3 adjacent on a single 2x2 foundation. Combine with 1m pillars and a LOT of stuff can be jammed into a tiny volume.

I am trying to build a thing over water but trying to eyeball the top of the support pillars so they match up with the platform above it barely works. Build a support next to where one should attach to the underside of a floor, then aim another at the side of the first and it should snap to the floor.

Furism posted:Also, I really hope they fix pathing soon because it makes combat janky to the point of annoyance for me. Combined with the fact that an enemy aggro you every minute, I would say that's the part of the game I like the least. Earlier, a tree club troll felled a tree next to some other trees and then refused to path over the fallen tree; cheesed him to death by repeatedly moving a meter back and forth and he'd path the long way around instead of just walking over it. But the aggroed greydwarfs are the worst. Try to aim with the bow and they change direction just as I fire, every loving time. Starting to wonder if it's deliberate.

I wonder if there's a better way to plant and harvest 100+ things. Maybe an AHK macro? I planted this by strafing right/left; could probably do it by clicking every .5s or something.  Carrots for the harvest god!

Solo map trip report: After innumerable restarts and some multiplayer action, I finally buckled down and created a map to progress through all the bosses while having fun along the way. I've completed preparations for Elder and think I'm finally ready to kill him and raid the swamp. First off, the base area. I dug a 5-6 wide trench all the way around the safe area; this should be good to fend off troll raids and such, right?  Inside the fence.  On top of the Staging Area.   Organized and labeled chests are a must!   The area I've explored so far.  You may notice a death marker near the mountain. I decided to do a naked run to get a feel for what it had to offer and ran into a swarm of dragon things guarding a nest. I grabbed an egg from the nest and sprinted back down the mountain chased by a wolf, which I tried clubbing and died very horribly. The egg now resides in a chest back at base until I figure out what it's used for. This is an insanely busy biome area...  First off, Elder and Bonemass are right across the pond from each other, but also there's PLAINS to the east, which when I sailed by the first and only time, I witnessed a swarm of what I guess were goblins assaulting some poor deer; looked like there was a whole village of them. So I got that to worry about... Also found tons of swamp crypts; just need Elder's key and I can grab em. Waited this long so I could thoroughly prep for post-Elder raids.

Man, iron is such a miserable grind. Enter swamp crypt. Chop scrap piles until pick breaks. Go put iron in smelters, repair pick, repeat. Why the hell couldn't iron have been from ore like copper was or I hear silver is?!? And iron equipment needs SO MUCH IRON. Like 10 times as much as the finished thing weighs... it's stupid. Crafting an item should not alter the total weight of stuff in my inventory.

Got my first "the ground is shaking" invasion. A single troll spawned on the far side of my moat and wandered around aimlessly while I arrowed it to death. A second one spawned, took a few shots, then fled. And then the invasion ended. Seems the walled moat is a great success.

I can still find them occasionally in good lighting, but when I really need them, I just put grass to min. More games really need customizable colorblindness settings, and not just the stupid presets; I can still see red and green, but subtle shades are all kinds of hosed.

Most survival games make getting wood an exercise in tedium. Not Valheim. Every time I chop down my tree farm, it finds a different way to create a chain reaction of falling and exploding wood. Tree physics are amazing. Minecraft, this ain't.

Queen's Jam is a tempting early game craft, but I deeply regret making ~30 of it, as Tasty Mead uses the same materials and is really useful once 8+ stamina segments are reliably obtained. Especially during boss fights, or extended mining sessions. I used 2 of it during the Elder fight, and wished I'd brought more. Cold and wet and crossing the swamp? Just slam a tasty halfway across, wait a few seconds, and keep sprinting. Also, here's a tip to plant stuff faster. Use the poles of an adjacent low fence as a spacing guide. Just plant one thing every vertical pole and it works out great.

PittTheElder posted:What are you eating for food then? Sausages and...? Most of the time, I just have meat active, with two foods ready to go if I'm not confident in my ability to handle a situation with only that much hp as a buffer. Early game, it was: meat, berries, neck tail, supplemented with carrot soup for high stamina activities. Once I found the trader, meat, fish, neck tail. I ended up raiding the swamp and establishing a base before I fought Elder, so I quickly graduated to sausages and turnip soup. These days, I'm eating a steady diet of sausages, turnip soup and grilled fish. Need to go back to starvation rations for a while until I farm a chest full of meat and a couple stacks of thistles, though; running out of both. Not sure what you mean by 'capping out'; higher tier foods do give more stamina, and Tasty mead is highly effective regen in time critical situations.

PittTheElder posted:Oh I was going purely off this statement: Queen's Jam and Tasty Mead both use raspberries and blueberries. What I was trying to say is that either you can use 8+8 of each for 4 of a food that is surpassed by many later foods, or you can make Tasty mead with it (10 honey, 10 raspberries, 5 blueberries for 6 mead) and it will full regen your stamina regardless of its current amount.

androo posted:God drat. Please back that save up incase some ocean shenanigans happen. I made it safely back; still haven't seen any ocean monsters. Unfortunately, my base is literally at the top of a cliff with no cart ramps yet so I had to buff up on stamina food and then do a slow walk up, periodically depositing everything in a couple chests to regen stamina. Made it up there and got all the iron in a new iron chest. I think I'll kill Bonemass tomorrow. I've already got a mountaintop base and a full supply of frost arrows, so it shouldn't be too big of a pain.

Tempora Mutantur posted:you also CANNOT put it on a building (i.e. flooring) no matter how open it is. has to be placed on dirt far enough away from any structure (which is not much space at all). kind of annoying. They can be placed on the sides of buildings and still function. Here's mine:  Pham Nuwen posted:I would kill for a few additional quickbar spaces. I'd like to have club, shield, bow, spear, hammer, axe, pick, and 3 stacks of food all close to hand, but instead I keep the weapons and some food handy and shuffle the other tools depending on what I'm doing, open the inventory to eat honey, etc.. It's pretty goddamn minor though... I'm still sneaking 30 minutes in the game over lunch and such. Only problem with that is quickbar spaces are also inventory spaces. The devs would need to decouple those functions like the Factorio devs did.

anatomi posted:What's a good ratio for harvesting/replanting carrots? Well, since a carrot seed plant gives 3 carrot seeds, I think the best ratio is 1 carrot seed plant to 3 carrots. This will give 2 carrots of profit. So, if you plant 30 carrot seed plants and 90 carrots, you'll get 60 extra carrots after replanting.

Tempora Mutantur posted:also wolves are dickholes because of the mountain's terrain, you have to get to a flat area since vikings have not mastered the concept of "attacking upward or downward," they only attack directly in front of them. Or just 'slope adjacent to the wolf'. Also can pre-combo (with an axe, at least) so the third, vertical hit goes out as it gets in range.

They killed me and almost got my 79% tame project wolf. Where the hell did these fucks even come from? Funny how the game still managed to suprise you. I've occasionally found skeletons running around the meadows murdering wildlife; escapees from the black forest apparently.

Trees give ground-level structural support for anything attached to the trunk, so it's perfectly viable to plant some pines and bury them in walls for a base that's much taller than it has any right to be.

I never thought of doing it this way but going by how it often takes a few seconds for a new portal to light up I feel like the risks are pretty apparent. Or just don't tag it. Two portals without tags will link automatically, funnily enough.

Attempting to build poo poo like docks where you're building straight out if there isn't a support there is frustrating as gently caress. I heard that you can build a floor piece halfway hanging off and then aim at the edge and the next will snap below. Then deconstruct the one on top and repeat.

Not having to watch a bunch of bars that drain ridiculously fast and constantly stuffing your face to avoid starving in 5 minutes is great. Instead, you only need to stuff your face every 6-10 minutes to renew food buffs. And the buffs are optional (but they help a lot).

I ended up building a second wall around the first pen, and when I load in they're within the second wall but not the inner pen. I might need a 3rd larger pen surrounding both because they're STILL escaping. There's definitely something weird going on with tamed animals being loaded outside of their last-known location. I heard a rumor that if they're partway inside the wall when you leave the area, when you return, they'll be on top of it instead, and can walk off. Try using 'walls' of raised earth, instead. Or putting them in a pit.

The axe damage (modified by your skill) determines how many chops you need to do, since trees have (invisible) hp. Iron axe turns me into a tree felling machine.

This may be a revolutionary concept to some of you, but: Light sources don't need to be lit at all times. Light them for comfort, or ambience, or screenshots, but it's fine if they aren't lit at other times. And you have the option of only adding 1 fuel instead of filling them completely.

Gully Foyle posted:You've got to activate the head on the stone to get the power "equipped", so just go back there and press E or whatever you have set on the hung Eikthyr head There should be an icon just to the right of your health/food bars if you do it. When that icon says 'Ready' you can press F to activate the power (lasts for 5 minutes, cooldown for 20 minutes). It's very useful though - 60% stamina drain from running/jumping makes exploring much easier. So useful, in fact, that I've never swapped it out. I wish there was a power wheel thing, instead, and activating a power locked them all for 20min. I suppose I should put a dedicated portal to the standing stones already.
