An idea for the use of the fantastic stuff you find when digging. Credit to Stardew Valley for concept. A ylandium generator craftable junk recycler, for turning scrap boots, old cans, other remnants found while digging into more interesting items. Possibly the diamonds too. Just an idea, I like all the junk, I just wondered whether there might be utility in an advanced crafting station which would give you a reason to save this stuff and stay excited when it is...

This suggestion is for possible future expansion of the game. The maps found in subterranean passages should be pieces of a treasure map. Assemble say 6 fragments together to find the location of a further treasure. Guarded by a larger end type boss.. And the contents of the buried treasure should be components for an item which takes you beyond what is known, to a father realm of monsters and mystery. For example: part of the treasure could be...

This is a ridiculous idea! But it’d be cool to build a hot air balloon. There are already wind currents. There’d Also have to be some kind of propeller with a directional control so that a player wasn’t purely at the mercy of the wind. The components could be a bunch of leather or cloth bound with a bunch of ropes attached to a basket of hay & sticks. A complex burner would have to be built for lift. And maybe a ylandium motor to run a propeller. A 19th...

I knew based upon the first few responses that this subject had become fraught with tricky feelings about killing these majestic mammals if they were included in this game. I also am the type which carries spiders outside rather than smashing them. But in video games I also like a little GTA.. One might not have much bearing on the other. The focus of the discussion ought to be whether whales are worthy of being suggested to the developers for...

I recognize your reluctance to see this included in the game. Alas, my hope of channeling The Old Man and the Sea and Moby Dick may never come to fruition in Ylands.. My romantic view of the 18th-19th century whaling industry conveniently omits the grizzly murder and subsequent collapse of the worldwide whale population. I, like you though, think that expanding the variety of animals in this game is desirable. And animals should be harvestable...

I’ve found five Ylands so far. I’ve got tons of sulfur. It’s scattered in many surface deposits on my desert islands. Now I’m off to new Ylands on a search for saltpeter, most difficult for me to find as of yet. So far I think the balance of resources is very good. Just enough demand of particular resources to drive exploration to farther reaches. I didn’t have copper on my start island. Then I needed rubber.. Now to make bullets I’m short saltpeter.. I gotta do some...

Others have proposed whales, harpoons, and deep sea adventure before, I’m just synthesizing those ideas. (You know who you are). There’s an opportunity for the deep sea which we encounter at the border to be expanded further. Maybe 500 blocks or so. First the ocean floor could be dropped to the basement layer. Corals and veg could be dropped out. Maybe a few super rare and scattered resources could be on this deep ocean floor (requiring...
