    I am VERY disappointed as well. I really feel like the explore mode is broken, The cool thing earlier was that you had to look for birds moving to even know which direction to go looking for an island. Now you can SEE them from the starter. It feels REALLY dumbed down to me. also having the icons on the compass that indicate where islands are is a bad thing and kills the entire explore aspect. I will only assume that the highlighted area on the map is the entire usable space in this mode. Very weak, as I was able to explore every island within an hour on the bamboo raft. THERE IS NO REASON to even build a ship. IMO this game has gone downhill.

    I usually lean towards the stone & log building as opposed to the bamboo style, but you have opened the door to a number of possibilities that I hadn't even realized existed, well done! :) 

    Bamboo was so easy to find at that point in the game. I have a huge stand planted for harvest. I think my floating lighthouse will be all stone.

    So, there weren't a lot of magic blossoms around and I didn't feel like going out super far for them so I decided to make a concentrated source of them. That being said, the project kind of evolved into this...20180225122144_1.thumb.jpg.74149300c2e50a1a1b557409b0d52468.jpg20180225122135_1.thumb.jpg.a7f9688ac6893198fe19a66024c4952f.jpg20180225122116_1.thumb.jpg.e137591a9ea08b87fd581e6d2cff0f36.jpg20180225122058_1.thumb.jpg.f4b355ea4618960fd597210672de1abf.jpg20180225122025_1.thumb.jpg.1eb54f80959beb7ab2331aef77088187.jpg

    I feel as if it isn't finished but I can't exactly pinpoint what I should add to it to make it feel more complete. Let me know what you think, and your suggestions would be greatly appreciated! :) 

     

    P.S. Thank you @renderin for providing the inspiration for the flower decoration. I drew from your larger-scale homestead garden to accent my own piece, I admire your work :) 

    Very cool! I also planted a few magic blossoms near the house as well, but I love the temple ruin feel here. Maybe place arctic willow leaves on the arches to simulate an ivy?

    The 23 mile crossing of the Chesapeake Bay solved this by installing tunnels along the bridge crossings wherever a shipping lane existed.

    Sorry, I did not mean to  down vote this..I DID consider a tunnel from one island to the next but decided to do this...

    How are you gonna get your sail ships around this? :D 

    Since I am playing single player I will just consider the two islands connected, But I had thought about raising a section for that purpose. the entire structure will be suspended by floating platforms without any other supports.Image result for rainbow bridge port arthur texas

    Depends on the time of day in-game for the game save file you're editing.  Drop a lit bonfire down somewhere and you'll see.

    Well, that's the problem, I save the game during the day, but it is night in the editor no matter what. This seems to be a new issue since the last update.

    Awesome job! Visually pleasing.

    I say don't build just for function... you will continue to enjoy it if it is beautiful.

    Functional is fine for a stepping stone base, but make your home a piece of art like renderin did here

    Thank you so much, I am honored by your comment sir, I love your work here as well!

    Ok yeah that is strange, once you’ve learnt the recipe it should stay available in the crafting menu. So say you’ve picked up a piece of Flint then the recipes for stone knife and flint lighter should appear and stay there. You don’t accidentally have a different sub-tab selected or have anything written in the search box? 

    Nah, its constant.

    I mentioned it in another thread, but got no response. Ill post screen shots later.

    That analogy is not entirely accurate. Once you have discovered the recipe it always shows in your crafting tab but it is not craftable until you physically have the materials in your possession again. You still ‘remember’ how to make the item.

    Before discovering the recipe, the recipe simply doesn’t show up because you haven’t discovered the items it requires yet. Otherwise that would be like knowing how to make something without knowing what it is actually made out of, which in my opinion makes even less sense.

    I do agree though that it can be hard to know what you actually need to be making in the first place. Without knowing you need to make Yarn and a Sewing Kit I don’t think it is very obvious how to go about making Cloth or Clothing without having real world knowledge on how they are made. There are some hints as long as you have a rough idea or have happened to collect a few of the items to start with like you would know how to make Yarn if you had collected Cotton already which would also tell you to make a Spinning Wheel. Once you make the Yarn then you would know how to make a Sewing Kit and Cloth which would tell you to make a Weaving Loom etc etc. it is a progression tree after all, if you don’t collect lots of different resources and make lots of different items as they come available then you are never going to learn more recipes or anything.

    Then I have a bug, because nothing shows in my crafting menu until i have the items.

    I agree about the crafting, It is odd that things do not show up as craft-able until you have the items in your possession. The analogy would be forgetting how to make a sandwich because you are out of bread. Please fix this.
