Thank you, @Aleš Ulm, all,I ever wanted was more transparency. I can't be the only nerd fascinated with the process, your answer was very interesting. I think communication is key. I can't wait to get my teeth into 0.8.

Ylands Multiplayer: Host Goes Offline - I get kicked off the server.

@RedEagle_MGN also has some good servers. I play on his and @Baz Foobar's server. I like them both, but for fun and camaraderie, we have a great bunch at Foobars's place. I haven't found "my place" on Red's server, but it is well run and everyone is nice and friendly. -
I love so much about this game. The graphics are pleasant and fun. The music is very nice. The storms are crazy awesome. I love the ability to build limited to what you can imagine. I wish block placing was easier and less fussy. But in general it is a great system. I enjoy the community aspect of MP. I have been lucky enoug to find a great community, with admins who are diligent about keeping it fun and dealing swiftly with griefers. I like that you can play the game pretty much however you want to. Cooperatively, competitively and creatively.

How to setup an NPC you can trade with
bojo2736 replied to RedEagle_P1.'s topic in General Discussion
Wait. You are wanting an NPC that dispenses bears randomly? That is evil. -

There are some good full time servers. When I get home I will PM the info to you. Right now most of them are in limbo waiting for the update. The plus side to having a private server with your friends is you can password it to keep out the knuckleheads. The downside you have already discovered. -
We call it arithmetic or math. Making it plural just sounds weird to an American ear, though it is probably more accurate.

That is how it works right now. Planned to be fixed in 0.9. Read the Dev Diary #31 for details. Welcome to Ylands. It's a pretty great game, but still in Alpha. So be prepared for these things. -
If it fixes a connection problem, then I am all for it. Last night, I literally had to do around ten reconnects including three hard resets, and finally had to give up in frustration.

Boolean? Maths? Whoa there. American public school system didn't teach me that. Or if they did it's been way too many decades ago for this old goat.

I was playing around with this, I was hoping to daisychain a few wind turbines. I couldn't make it work. Is it not possible? It could just be me

How about fixing the boats we have first? Glitchy McGlitcherson, certain death on the high seas. Also, how do you sail that monster? I can't see easily with just sails on her.

Plz Make Abort / TimeOut For Multiplayer Loading
bojo2736 replied to Pharaun Mizzrym's question in Suggestions & Feedback
Reboot the game? Hell, half the time I have to do a hard reset on the whole machine. -
It seems like SP islands are kind of all the same, while there is a lot more variation in the MP generated worlds. Last night I created a MP game, my friends couldn't access it, but it was such a nice world. I didn't know if I could save it. I was able to open it in the editor and did a Save As and was able to convert it to a SP world.
-
If playing collaboratively, why would Tom, Peter or Jane want to start on anything but the most recent save? And what happens if they are all on different saves?
-
Awesome idea. I hope it works as described.

[suggestion] Less inventory and BACKPACKS!
bojo2736 replied to StarButterToast's question in Suggestions & Feedback
Just give us a toolbelt. Most of my inventory is taken up in unstackable tools. -
Don't forget to add the navigation birds.
-
You may know this already, but I just found out. If you are doing anything with a stackable inventory item, if you hold ctrl it will do whatever you are doing with the whole stack. If you are placing a stack put it in one of the hot keys hit E to enter free placing mode, then hold ctrl and place where you want. I use this for storing stacks of stones etc, and not using an inventory or container slot. I made a crazy amount of sand in a short time breaking sandstone one stack at a time vs one piece at a time.

Hey, you have only had to locate my stuff, a dozen times or so....

Generally because the body is abandoned when lagged out or the player quits. Sometimes they starve to death (bug) or someone spawning in sees them and kills them.

This is the definition of a bad day...

I know the armchair is only available using the creator cube. I have never seen iron shackles. If they exist, I would assume they are also a Creator Cube only thing. There are multiple flags and banners available to craft. I have seen that medical symbol, so I assume they are craftable. If not they are probably Creator Cube as well.

You can do several batches in the fire. Just interact. Bashing not neccessary. Fun. But not neccessary.

I built a hanging rack with fire pit underneath. I was doing it for decor purposes. I came back to ash piles hanging from the rack.
