    Recipe for Medieval windows *consumes* Hammer?

    They just removed the consumption of hammers when creating repair kits with the last update. Hopefully the same will be applied to other items that consume them!
  2. Where did you learn this? Seems a bit of a strange design decision if true... Specifically the starvation part i mean..
  3. Not a bad idea at all.... *starts rebuilding his spare computer* How do you find building ships etc when joining the game? Does it still bug out (invisible objects etc)?

    How do you dye the ship sails?

    If this is correct, then i am a happy bunny! Will check it out later EDIT: This is correct.. I am a happy bunny..
  5. I don't think dedicated servers are currently in a usable state, if at all.. This, as well as the bugs you mentioned, are being worked on by the devs as we speak, from what i've read... Not sure what the plans are for clean up of items though. I generally tidy up after myself when harvesting to reduce any performance issues caused by litter.

    Can't switch to engines on ship.

    You may have already figured this out too, but for anyone else reading, you need to *hold* the RMB to switch to engines, as opposed to just clicking RMB, which will indeed release control of the helm

    RP_EvoCity_YL - WIP

    I'd love to join this. I've been hoping there would be some RP opportunities and i like what you've done so far! How do i apply?

    How do you dye the ship sails?

    I think the paintgun dyes the sails AND the mast all the same colour. Admittedly i haven't tested much, but this was what i found when i tried it..

    MOVING A CAR BY SHIP

    I posted a similar thread on Reddit but sadly didn't get a response. So far, after extensive testing, i've been unable to transport a car by ship. As you said, the car stays static whilst the ship moves under it. I also tried "blocking" the car's movement by placing a log on the deck behind it. This resulted in the whole ship getting stuck once the log hit the car... So at this point, there doesn't seem to be a way to do it.. It's strange though, as i have successfully transported a raft on top of a car. The implementation of ship vs car movement and how objects "attach" themselves must be different. Maybe a dev can answer?
  10. Hoping one of the ylands team can answer this question... For a while now, i've been looking into procedural landscape generation using voxels/marching cubes in Unity, specifically low poly, smooth terrain that is editable at runtime. As you can imagine, i was delighted to learn about Ylands since it showed that what i was envisioning, could indeed be done effectively! However, my question is, did you guys develop your own voxel engine for the landscape generation, or source one from a third party? I totally understand that you may not want to give away any "trade secrets", but i would love a discussion on the techniques used to create the worlds in Ylands. The water effects are especially impressive... Any info you can share would be greatly appreciated by this budding game developer..

    updated survival tips for new Ylanders

    Don't the weapons have different swing speeds though? Would it not be better to measure the effectiveness based on how long it takes to kill an animal rather than how many hits? I *thought* the sabre had a faster swing speed, but i could be wrong...

    stone chunks?

    A pick or a spade should do the trick.. As suggested, go up some mountains and give it a shot. Spade will dig faster and a wider area.

    [SPOILER ALERT] Numbers on ship sails and engines

    Just drop the engine on your ship, fuel it up and you're good to go And it's very satisfying too!

    Next Update?

    A far as i know, the next big update is the beginning of 2018 and will be focused on NPCs Guess there will be small hotfixes in between now and then though..

    signage?

    Pretty sure you can label signs... My friend placed one above our food container and when you get near it, a little bubble appears saying "FOOD"... I haven't done it myself though so i'm not sure of the process...

    Ships slow?

    Just to add to this: Putting an engine on my boat was one of the most satisfying things i've ever done in a crafting game. The sound effects alone make it feel like you've just built a wondrous new invention! And you can switch from engine to sails if and when you run out of fuel

    Fence

    Craft beams like vforventura said, and search for "railings"

    Saltpeter

    You're not doing anything wrong. Saltpeter just seems to be really hard to find.. My friend and i searched 3 different islands and their caves before finally stumbling on a tropical island with saltpeter literally on the surface.. It was on the side of some rock and not far from the sea, if that makes any difference..

    Island distribution

    Hi all, My friend and I decided to venture out into the ocean in search of new lands last night. However, after travelling south for 2 hours, we didn't come across anything. No land, birds, sharks, flotsam etc... just endless rolling waves.. Eventually we did a 180 and curved back home.. So my question is this: Are the islands only distributed in a clump around the starter island and we were just unlucky and missed the other islands? If so, should we have at least come across some debris and other POIs out in the ocean? If not, I don't really see the point in there being a vast open ocean. I love this game, and it's great fun, but sailing for 2 hours without any kind of reward kinda sucks...
  20. Awesome! This is going to make Ylands the definitive survival/explorer game in my opinion! *Waits patiently for a space exploration mod*
  21. Yeah agreed, although isn't this only possible in minecraft because of mods? Not sure if the base game supports importing models natively?
  22. -Shojiki-

    Just like dayz

    This. Get a raft, escape to another island, dig down, and plot your revenge....

    Multiplayer Nightime

    It's tough starting at night, but they don't last long, so maybe just log out and come back in 10 mins?
  24. Yeah that's a good point... It would be great if custom models are allowed in the future!
