Hi all. Nice change of pace is why I play this. I'm not in a rush, I really like being able to create instead of the normal hack and slash treadmill. I feel like I can slow down. Its my video game vacation land, away from the grind of other video games.

I would like to thank you all for tips. Funny how curing my ignorance fixes my frustration. Again my thanks

Hey all. Absolutely loving the sandbox. I cant seem to go into first person for building anymore. Is there a new command? Boats. Large ships are sooo slow. I read that 5 large masts and one small will max out my speed. 560 total with 550 as max speed. Seems a bit excessive. I have never had a starting land with that much cotton ever. Cotton for all my starts is the rarest material avail. I am forced to hop islands with a boat so slow it completely ruins my fun. Last night I sailed around at a snail's pace for hours and never found another land. (Perhaps we could get some sea birds in the sky to lead us to a close land?) I was so frustrated I started a new game. I love what you devs are building here. I have seen so much improvement and can not wait to see where you take it from here. Thanks for all your great work. Have a happy Holliday.

It was sill in water so could not dig. I was miffed. Ran 2 laps around the island to get enough flax for the sails. But it is early access, so I expect some frustration.

Greetings all. So have been learning the ropes for about 20 hours now. I am now on my third character, if I die, I start over. I am having a blast. Crafting is fun, not intuitive, but fun. All kinds of fun surprises to be found in the world. Ships are my main source of frustration. Placing objects has flipped my boat, shot me in the air so high I died on impact, and is just in general hard to place objects. So, I have all my crafting up and running, built my first ship brimming with enough supply's for a new world exploration when I decide to see if I can dig my own moat, and build my own lighthouse. Turns out I can, but....... The ocean level dropped 2 squares effectively beaching my ship. Deep breath, build a new ship... Grrr! New ship, up and running, first voyage off the island. I made a wheelhouse, with a bunkhouse above. Climb up the rope ladder and transport to my old ship! The one beached! The ladder seems to have put at the top of the other rope ladders top. My new boat is on a S.W. heading in the middle of the ocean! @#$#$. Quick build a raft and row after it. I did find it, and it made a fun story. Keep up the good work, and thanks for a great sandbox to play in.
